TPCi wouldn't hype a card game announcement or the US release date of a side game at the end of a B2W2 trailer - also, there hasn't been this level of international announcement since the reveal of Reshiram+Zekrom and G5.

Ha, IGN starting to party poop.

If it's worldwide, it's a new game

Instead, this announcement is more likely to be related to the Pokemon Trading Card Game or a Pokemon tournament, but we’ll have to wait until next week to find out for sure.

Suuuuure IGN, that's exactly the kind of stuff they'd make a worldwide announcement for >_<

But hey, got to hit that minimum word count.

I find it really hard to believe that TPC would hype something up this massively for it only to concern a facet of the franchise that a huge portion of the fans don't care about. I mean, the card game has its fans, but this clearly involves something else.

 

[gosox333]

No way they'd internationally hype up the fucking card game.

Try harder IGN.

 

[stilgar]

why wouldn't you start with the original

you people are weird

i'm playing Metroid on NES right now, and then I'm gonna play Metroid 2 on GB before finally jumping into Super Metroid.

So you're telling me you never played a metroid before

Anthony, I am disappoint. We need to talk.

 

[tkscz]

Japan's big announcement is the western release of a game they already got?

I'm calling two separate announcements. Either that, or DLC for the game.

 

[Ondore]

Also, Gate to Infinity's release date (for NA, at least) was announced the same time as the name. March 24/13.

Yeah that guy makes no sense. Sounds like he was writing that before the tweet.

About time GameFreak!

Can't wait. I wonder if they're going all 3D for this game.

I liked Bianca's 3D model from BW2. It captured Sugimori's style really well. It would be cool if they made a whole game that looked like that.

 

[iNvid02]

i havent followed pokemon for years but when stuff like this happens my mind is always hoping nintendo delivers big time by announcing the money printing machine that would be 3D pokemon mmo.

someday, probably, maybe?

Clearly they will announce a worldwide card game tournament, where each contestant will play a children's card game against people all over the world on motorcycles.

I initially intended to not hype this but... I'm excited now. I'm pretty burnt out on the series, but I'll still be there day 1 for a new generation!

 

[Ezalc]

Also, customizable main characters please. Dude from B&W2 looks like the captain of some uni frisby team.

I'm still mad they changed the protags from BW1 to 2. The ones from 2 look awful compared to the ones in the first game.

People need to stop hating on the TCG it's actually pretty fun.

When is the last time they've done an international announcement for anything Pokemon?

 

[Etzer]

Cautiously hyped. If it is a new mainline game, I will re-buy a 3DS for it.

Clearly they will announce a worldwide card game tournament, where each contestant will play a children's card game against people all over the world on motorcycles.

Full Pokemon on WiiU. Who am I kidding, it'll never happen.

 

[Deified Data]

I don't want the next gen announced so soon. Personally hoping it's just a spin-off title or a remake for 3DS.

 

[Shaffield]

hope its B&W3(D)

so I can ignore another one and keep playing SoulSilver

They already announced a spin-off title for this year (Mystery Dungeon). Although, I'd be more than happy with R/S remakes.

I could be mistaken, but didn't someone from GameFreak say/imply it would be a trilogy back when BW2 was announced?

 

[Deified Data]

Pokemon Conquest 2 confirmed.

 

[PK Gaming]

Fox's only, Final Destination.

Metaknight only, 4 stock, 8 minutes

Ugh. Don't be a Debbie downer :/

I'd buy it.

 

[ScraftyDevil]

Pokemon Conquest 2 confirmed.

I'd be okay with this. I logged over 160 hours into Conquest

 

[Deified Data]

I tried to get into Conquest but couldn't. IMO, it tried to be a good Pokemon game and a good SRPG and failed to be either.

That's exactly how I want the 3DS Pokémon game to look. I don't want that overly shiny cel-shaded look but instead what they did with Bianca in BW2.

I would also love to see anime cutscenes in the style of the BW2 trailer for the major plot points, but I also wouldn't mind character customisation which would rule that out. So in-game cutscenes would be fine if that was the case. Saying that, the in-game cutscenes in BW/BW2 are pretty badass so maybe in-game would be better? Wouldn't mind voice acting too, again for major plot points.

I wouldn't mind seeing RS remakes at some point, but I don't want them to be the first 3DS mainline Pokémon games. I want Gen VI to have that honour and wow factor instead. So Gen VI please.

Pokémon Snap on 3DS and/or Wii U also wouldn't go a miss.

 

[Brainiac 8]

Nintendo: "Pikachu! We choose you...to save sales of the 3ds outside Japan!"

 

[Gospel]

Unusual that they're announcing whatever this turns out to be simultaneously. Both B/W and B/W2 announcements hit Japan first followed by an American announcement sometime later, iirc.

I'm not going to get my hopes up yet then. This could be anything.

 

[Roto13]

GUYS IT'S PROBABLY A POKEMON MMO GUYS IT HAS TO BE GUYS

Oh, wait, I forgot, that's never, ever, ever going to happen in a hundred zillion years.

Why would you ignore the two best Pokemon games made and keep playing a remake of the second worst?
