I havent played a new pokemon game for 12 years and now they went and actually changed it enough to make it interesting and "new" again. I probably won't buy it but none the less, now I have to pay attention.

Yeah. I show this to my wife who, like myself, only played pokemon to it's 2nd generation and she was suprised that they are just NOW makeing the game "look like LOZ" meaning 3D graphics.
I said, "they didn't really have the tech till now." She goes, "what about Pokemon Stadium?" I'm like, "Nope doesnt count. It wasnt a full adventure, just a way to battle the Pokemon you caught in the 2D game on a 3D plain." Then shes "Why didnt they just make a full game on the Gamecube or N64?" I say, "Well then it wouldnt be "pocket" monsters anymore."

I realize I'm in the very small minority here, but I'm gonna miss the old 2D sprites :-(
But at least with the new trip into 3D, it looks really clean and nice. I don't think it's gonna change a lot gameplay-wise though, which is actually fine by me.

Though I havent been playing this long, 15 years is a LONG time for a franchise not to change or at least experiment with a new look. I guess Mario, Zelda, Metroid, all had to wait 10+ years for 3D games but this is all telling of Nintendos buisness model for the last 10 years.
I play Pokemon SoulSilver every now and then. Thats a remake of the GBCs Silver version. Though I wasnt expecting much from a remake I was underwhelmed. It didnt come as far as i hoped in 10 years. I doubt there will be a 2D option and I'm glad Pokemon is finally changing. It would be cool as a person who expereinced the the start of this franchise first-hand see a true, new generation for the franchise.

It actually looks pretty good. Only issue I had with the trailer was that with every single ability used in the combat scenes, I couldn't help but think "Who the **** is that?!"

I dunno dude, Gen 2 was pretty awesome, sure it had one or two pokemanz that were far from original, but it was still a great generation (Seeing as once you completed it, you could go to Kanto and re-live your gen1 days )

That is why I got SoulSilver and still play it from time to time. It introduced you to a new generation without alienating the previous generation. Had you been able to go to Johto and Kanto in Ruby/Saphire I probably would have bought into those games. I consider Gold/Silver/Crystal the pinacle of pokemon in every way.

Yeah they already had 200 pokemon thought up and ready to be put into Pokemon Red and Blue but cut it down to 150 when they thought 200+ would be to many and overwhelm the player.

Hey check out these awesome starters they just announced for Pokemon X&Y.
This game is officially on my watch list now. If the reviews for it are good this might be a pretty expensive year. I'm already planning on buying $200 woth of games in the next 3 months provided GTAV or Zelda:ALBW doesnt suck me in enough that I can't get away.
