Pokemon Black and White 2 announced for DS

[heartgold]

Because the compelling story of Black and White definitely needed a sequel to continue it.

I mean this is basically Pokemon Grey but they realized they could sell two copies of the game instead of one by giving "Black" and "White" editions.

I'll probably pirate it though.

Usually the third counterpart is the enhanced version, same old rehash. So no this isn't the 'grey' version. It's a true squeal and a follow on to an incomplete plot that b/w left.

Yeah, but it we start from the beginning again, dont we?
SO its sort of the "third version", with extended story.

Usually the "third version" doesnt include much in terms of story, but this one is.

I think it's funny how people have already made a decision on the game even though it's not out yet and we have no information on it.

It could be a different time frame perhaps, but to be honest we really don't know anything about it. No screenshots, heck it could set in a new region. lol

$10 says this is basically an enhanced version.

Also my point was that Black and White had terrible and uninteresting plots and saying "It's a continuation!" of them is shit reasoning.

 

[kthnxshwn]

Reasoning for what? It is a continuation and it's safe to say that after G/S/C, B/W has a pretty intensive plot for a child's game. You shouldn't expect Final Fantasy type shit when you turn on a Pokemon game.

I really can't say anything right now, little we know about the game. They have added 2 to the title, seems fair to assume this going to be a squeal, not a rehashed plot.

 

[Deleted_171835]

I want improvements on the battles(Design) but with the limited DS hardware is not possible...
I hope they try a full 3D game.

>:
No.

The battle system in Black and White is just about perfect. It's fast and the blown-up sprites look really nice. I wouldn't change a single thing.

We'll see. I'll believe it when I see it. Something tells me the pokefans are expecting too much.

When I read the title of the thread I thought this was a joke.
I was terribly wrong.

[nryn99]

lol Damn I want Gold/Silver version 2 now, no ruby/sapphire version 2 would be awesome.

 

[Satangel]

How this already has 20 pages is beyond me....
OT: Looking forward to seeing what they'll do with it, but probably never going to play it.

 

[Valwin]

if i remember was not Pokemon silver/gold direct sequels to red and blue ? cuz it was set 3 years after red took down team rocket

 

[jonesman99]

I keep thinking that all 3 of them were one super pokemon and something happened for Reshiram and Zekrom to split from the original form leaving Kyurem as a meteor in space. I like the new forms, but at stay true to the original history.

 

[RupeeClock]

Here, I ripped these high-res PNGs from the flash site they put up.

 

[Janthran]

Differences and exclusives...haha.
Yeah, whatever helps you sleep at night. They just knew damn well a ton of morons would buy both for what is basically the exact same game. It would have made much more sense just to merge the two, since they're basically identical.
But hell, they sell more this way.

I bet Gen6 is going to have 3 pokemon games and possibly 6 in the sequel to them. Y'know, split each version into two and change one pokemon, sell it for full retail. Once they bankrupt their fanbase selling them 37 copies of the same game with a different title, maybe pokemon will finally stop its rampage.

This is obviously different. There's no way to know that these two are going to be the exact same game.
They'll give more information soon..

Yes

and The event in Heart Gold/Soul Silver really proves it and answered the question on why Giovanni didn't appear in the GB games.

 

[Ikki]

Xros up Kyurem!

If they're gonna call them sequels they better be fucking sequels.
But they probably won't be.
