Pokemon Black and White 2 announced for DS

[Deleted User]

It really is too bad Game Freak is making two games instead of one. It's a lot easier to buy and play one game. Exspecially if the storylines/gameplay/characters are the exact same. I wonder what made Game Freak contemplate making sequels instead a remake.

Extra Yen in profit, it's Gamefreak which are a product of Nintendo and Pokemon games print money like everything else popular and on a Nintendo system.

Remind me again what companies are suppose to do?I forget, they fund themselves.

Is Pokemon growing so much in popularity that Game Freak could benefit from two games instead of one?

i like this in bottom right of webiste

Also plays on 3DS

Well, d'uh. Same applies to every single DS game - Nintendo just feels they have to re-establish well-known facts because the great majority of their fanbase is not exactly the brightest of crayons just to make sure that everybody knows it's compatible.

i wonder if it has 3DS enchancements

Black and White 1 kinda did
as it can use the 3DS Wireless settings

It can't use internet connection with WPA security. The DSi and 3DS are compatible with WPA

One thing is make products to get money, other thing is act like a mercenary, changing a thing or two, just for the money. I think that Nintendo and Capcom are examples of the later

You're using a flashcart, thus you run the game in DS-Mode, and the DS doesn't support WPA.

Yes I pirate. Games here in Brazil are too damn expensive, A pokémon Black is about 90 dolars.

Well then you should expect that you won't be able to access all the features a given game may offer if it's DSi/3DS-Enhanced, for example you can't access the cameras and so on and so forth.

Where I live, the basic Pokemon HeartGold bundle costed anything between 200 and 169 zlotys ($80 and $69) which didn't stop my girlfriend from buying a copy when she was staying at my place simply because *we actually had it in stock* wheras in the U.K you had to pray to God and stand in a line for a few days to even get a pre-order.

There are excuses of all-sorts, but at the end of the day, you pirate because it's free and convenient. The sooner you realize that the better for you. It's interesting how you can afford the console but not the games. The problem with pirates like me and you is that our thirst for games is much larger then our income - that's why we choose to download. It's not that we can't afford games, we can't afford enough games, and there is a huge difference.

Pokémon is the most mercenary game ever! They always release two games, wish are almost the same. Them after some time they release a third version, making your version obsolete, but not changing much either. The graphics are almost the same as in the GBC. The soryline is the same as ever. There is no great criativity or inovation. Although the metagame is pretty good, and pretty competitive, the changes are not that great either.

I could afford the console because my brother bought it when he was in USA.

It's free and covenient to pirate, I admit it.
I have the original Pokémon Pearl.

Althought I see a product to expensive for such a few things.
When I saw there was a Pokémon Black and White 2, I thought of buying it.
But when I discovered it was for DS I got plenty disapointed.

I will pirate it as I pirated Black and White.
I will just buy the game, when it offers a descent graphic, at least it.

Fair enough, that is an argument I can understand.

 

[gamefan5]

I come back from a good night of sleep and I see 8 more pages made... -_-. Everytime it's about pokémon this happens, I can't wait to see the flood of pokénoobs when B&W2 releases.
On topic though, I find it hilarious that Europe announces it for Autumn 2012 and NA for just plain 2012. XD

EDIT: NoA announced it will be for fall 2012, according to IGN.

 

[virgildraco]

wow i didnt expect a sequel to a pokemon main game, well i think no one did, but thats good though, so many pokemon games and they still find ways to surprise the fans, thats good

 

[Guild McCommunist]

I can't wait to see the flood of pokénoobs when B&W2 releases.

I've used a HM to teach myself Surf though so it's all good.

As per the whole "3DS features" thing, it won't. They're probably just putting the 3DS label on there so they can go "HEY DON'T WORRY IT WORKS ON YOUR NEW CONSOLE SO IT'S ALL GOOD".

I use the world probably a lot, even when it's not applicable. That's probably a problem.

If I'm correct, the official reason for releasing two versions is to promote trading. Each version has its own exclusive Pokemon so to "catch them all", you'll have to trade with a friend. Although we all know the real reason is because Gamefreak loves money.

4 versions required. Because 3 just isn't social enough.

 

[Deleted-236924]

I wonder if this will take place in Unova.
I always said it would be cool if Game Freak made a game that took place in a different region, but with the same Pokémon as before.

@VMM : If it's a personal thing, you can't say that "common sense tells that 3D > 2D" when you just said it was a personal thing (Opinion.)

One thing does not contradicts the other. If it's not a fact, it's a personal thing, but there will always be a common sense for that

No.
It will always be a matter of opinion, no matter what you say.
Common sense tells me that everyone has different tastes.

I think you forgot a word or two in your sentence.
First you deny what I said, them you say exactly what I said.

To explain this let's just supose:

For me, the best generation is the 2nd
For some, mostly kids, the best generation is the 5th
But the common sense is, the best generation is the 1st

Do you understand now?

Everything that is personal will have a common sense.
There will always be people who don't agree with the common sense.
And the common sense will always indicate the majority's opinion

No.
There is no such thing as "common sense" when it all comes down to opinions.

 

[kthnxshwn]

Common sense and "opinions" are two totally different things. Can we abandon that topic now?
