Next Pokémon RPG series

Post by Pikachu3828 »

I was thinking about the new Pokémon RPG that is apparently going to be released for the Gamecube. It is allegedly a "proper" Pokémon RPG, like Ruby/Sapphire, instead of just a battling game, like Pokémon Colosseum.

I hope that this next game will have a lot of new, fun features. The game was pretty limited back in the days of R/B/Y/G/S/C because of the console's power, though both managed to be great games. However, I don't think R/S quite improved on G/S/C enough :? Ok, I'll admit I'm a fanboy of Gold/Silver/Crystal, they were my favourite Pokémon games and still are, but G/S/C to R/S just wasn't as great a leap as R/B/Y was to G/S/C, in my opinion. Heck, they even took some features OUT in R/S from G/S/C.

So I'm just wondering what kind of new features people here are hoping for in this new game? I really hope it's a vast improvement over R/S(/E), it's got no excuse not to be, the Gamecube is far more powerful than the GBA SP.

Although, being on the Gamecube defeats one of Pokémon's once great pulling factors....mobility and linking up. Because the games were on a handheld you could take them anywhere. The Gamecube isn't quite so portable (albeit there is a Gamecube Car Adaptor available, but that doesn't match the portability I'm talking about) Also, linking up. Trading. Battling. Will there be some sort of connectivity with the GBA/DS? Will there be a GBA/DS Pokémon RPG game to coincide the Gamecube game. so you port your Pokémon over to that to battle/trade? Or will it be like Animal Crossing, where you download your party to a memory card and then take that over to your friend's house to battle? That method is less fun, and also means there would be no 4-player battling, because the Gamecube only has two memory card spaces.

So many questions. Peoples' thoughts?

Err.... Colosseum is my favorite pokemon game because it was in 3D and had a plot. Colosseum isnt a battling game. Its actually far better than any gameboy games. *has story other than "Catch em all!* Colosseum is also a game, and a pokemon battling thiney. R/S Sucked. :(

Yeah it looks like a sprite remake to me too.

A remake of G/S/C for the gameboy would be great because it would be the box organezations from R/S/E and the game has better graphics with all the awsome G/S/C game stuff in it. Yeah I'm a fanboy for G/S/C :smile:

As far as I know the two main characters are independent of each other. The only reason they looke the same is lazy game developers, not because of any genetic link. Then again, I could be wrong.

Shut up! Colliseum was an abominaton. It was embaressing how poor that game was. Even Red and blue had better graphics.

Uh... I have to disagree. You can't even run Gamecube games on the GameBoy's. Even if you could you have to seriously mod it big time. I respect your thoughts on how the game sucks but...
