It happens every time, you tell everybody that you’ll make an important announcement soon and just before you do someone goes and announces it for you.

It happened to Pokemon this week, as their planned announcement on Sunday of new DS games has already been leaked on the web. Japanese Yahoo made an article stating the new games to be made, and Pokemon Official Japanese website has confirmed it.

Pokemon Heart Gold and Pokemon Soul Silver will be released in Japan later this year, and that’s all we really know at this point (although check out the cool logo’s above for the games). Hopefully Pokemon Sunday will expand on what the games will be (other than a remake of Gold and Silver using Diamond/Pearl’s graphics and the implemented features introduced after those games.) If Pokemon Sunday doesn’t mention much more, next week sees a new issue of Coro Coro Magazine, so that should give us more info.

I’ll update with more when I learn it
