I don't know that Nintendo can afford to screw up right now... me thinks.

With a mainline Pokemon game, I doubt Nintendo is screwing up with this. Plus, it's available for both DS and 3DS users so it will probably sell a lot.

This is speculation but people notice those those blue and red gems in the title. Some people are thinking it might be related to Ruby and Sapphire in some way.

Reshiram also had red fire while Zekrom had blue lightning.

I kinda think that's just wishful thinking there.

Maybe it is to boost the DS's sales so it can beat the PS2. Wasn't Crystal on both Gameboy AND Gameboy Color?

EDIT: It was only for Gameboy Color while G/S were for the gameboy.

The Pokemon Company has gone rogue!

In other news I have no idea how to feel about this. I wish we had more information.

[PipoPito]

Oh and i wanna know what happened to N. He is my fav character.

Why not for the 3DS? The only reason I got the 3DS for? (A full fledge third-person pokemon game with awesome graphics)

[esper]

Okay so i've collected my thoughts on this and here are the conclusions i've come to.

So insted of the third version we get where the story is changed slightly and everything else is reskined, we get actual sequels with new continued story to Black and White cool!

As for them being on the DS and not the 3DS well the 3DS has backwards compatability and I guess direct sequels on a new system is kinda wierd.

Now could someone be an awesome internet friend and help me get the new forms and anything else... so I don't be a massive Pokemon whore and get both

[mootap]

I'm excited but it being for the DS is a little let down the 3DS has a pretty big consumer base now they could have made it for that :/

no since the ds unit base is so large and the 3ds base is 15 millions big,it was smart for them to make it on the ds as it's playble on both systems

Probably the game engine the Black/White game engine was built for the DS and can't be put on the 3DS without problems. I'ts easier to use an existing game engine for a sequel than to build a new one for an other system. This was probably planned for a while.

I don't care if it's only for the DS, I will love this regardless.. Most likely ^^, In the future a Pokemon 3DS game will come anyway, I can wait for that. I hope they improve the online functionality a bit though, GTS, Online Subway (e.g. fight together with a friend on the other side of the world), etc. More worlds (which is rumoured) would be great aswell.

It won't be until Gen VI that we'll probably get a 3DS main pokemon game, that's unless they plan on remaking Ruby & Sapphire, but that could be Gen VI as well if it happens.

I'm looking forward to them, I mean, except for R/B/Y to G/S/C we haven't really had any proper continuation in Pokemon games.

[Nollog]

I think it's sad they aren't using Pokemon to sell a single 3DS.

That battle whatever game and that rts game coming up in Japan, but no real effort to sell the 3DS with pokemon at all yet.

[Xiombarg]

Seeing as this is for a DS, I might buy it, but I don't have any reasons to get the new generation games. It's the same formula and I got bored of it during Ruby and Diamond.

This is making me slightly regret quitting Pokemon at/with Heart Gold...


Also traded away my 6 LV.100 pokemon for nothing and all the legendaries I had. (Was only missing Celebi,Arceus and Shaymin)

[Caius Casshern Sins]

This news made me order pokemon black so I can get ready for the game.

Actually, B/W was rather refreshing. No forced Usage of HM's, TM's are infinite,Story actually goes beyond Diamonds and really puts out grey level material, etc. I'll tell you, Gen IV was the worst gen IMO.

You didn't already have it?
Dang dude.
BTW, I have both and will also get both of these.
