Actually... I can deny that the ammount of new content in every game is large - it's not. The forumla is dated, some of the features are added into it just out of plain boredom of the dev's (IV's, EV's for one), I could go on.

I don't "hate" Pokemon. I just have a distinct feeling of "meh, I already played this" each time I turn on a "new" Pokemon game.

I won't play another for longer than an hour unless it brings groundbreaking changes. Otherwise it's just another boring sequel.

My wish list for the Pokemon franchise: A third game alongside B/W, use more real-life locations like they tried in all the other games(Unova is loosely based off of America+4 regions before were all major areas of Japan), do a region that uses Chinese regions, and maybe do something with the battle system some more. All they really did in B/W was put a moving camera in as well as introduced Triple and Rotation Battles.

About the regions thing: http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Pok..._the_real_world

Some of the list's incomplete so if someone can fill it in, it'd help. I would but school's keeping me too busy these days.

i never know that there was a pokemon green

Yeah, it was only released in Japan. That's why one of the gba remakes of the Kanto region was called Pokemon LeafGreen.

so only pkm blue, red and yellow came out in europe?
Yes, and only Red, Green and Yellow were released in Japan.

I don't see Pokemon ending any time soon, it's still fun and addicting, and it gets a ton of sales. I doubt they're going to stop soon.

If you haven't noticed, you're playing THE SAME OLD GAME over and over again, periodically getting a slight facelift or new Pokemon.

(If you didn't understand, it can be translated by "We don't care, because if we did we wouldn't buy the games anymore.")

Slight facelift?

I don't understand why Nintendo's not doing anything with the cries of older Pokémon. They could remaster them, remake them, or use the ones from Pokémon Stadium on the N64. Anything's better than hearing 4-bit sound effects in the same game as they don't fit very well with the newer cries (well, unless they plan to downgrade the newer cries to 4-bit, but that really wouldn't make any sense).

I don't care if it's the same game. I've been playing the SNES games since literally before I can remember and it never gets old.
There were no Pokémon games on the SNES. Unless you were talking about this piece of junk.

EDIT: That piece of crap really is something. It's a pirate game, and that opening you see in the link above, believe it or not, is a form of AP protection. Here's an actual gameplay video.

I meant SNES games in general. I don't know why I said "the" SNES games.

And I think Pokémon (games, not series) will live as long as Gamefreak keep releasing them. And Pokémon is a strong merchandising product from Nintendo, so it won`t die

Fix'd your slight miscalculation.

Honest opinion? I'm all for keeping franchises alive, but please, don't force-milk them. Take some time before releasing a new game, Gamefreak. Release a game that FOR ONCE has decent upgrades, not just cosmetic ones.


HOLY CRAP! I didn't relies the amount of Pokemon games out there...

    the legal drinking age here in the US is 21, as some of you may know, but i think either it should be 18 or the age you're an adult should be 21.
    +1
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and i know what you may be thinking, "why become an adult at 21? doesn't that mean that banging an 18 year old would be illegal?"
    first of all, being in a relationship with someone who's 18 is technically ok, as long as it started when they were 18, but the age gap is still weird depending on how old you are. besides, the age of consent differs between different states
    +1
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    also my reasoning for adult age being 21 is because the reason that's the drinking (and now smoking) age is because it "gives them more time to think rationally and not drive drunk"
    so you should have that extra time to mature and think rationally before going to serve in the military or vote
    +1
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    tl;dr the "adult" age and the legal drinking age (and voting age) here in the US should be the same

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's all good no one pays attention to the law anyway lol
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What about making kids wait till 18 or 21 to drive? And yea is messed up, you can join army and die for your country at age 18, but you can't drink alcohol or smoke a cig til 21, is ridiculous
    +3
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    If someone is in the military they should be allowed to smoke and drink at 18.... Would help drive recruitment lol
    +3
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    We all know they do and will anyways. I think laws prevented them only pushes them to illegally do it. Even tho if was legal, most prob wouldn't even bother. Not a big deal or risque if its legal, no fun.

  • ZeroT21 @ ZeroT21:
    That's why some kids don't mind having a rap sheet or two just so they never get drafted
    +2
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    also, i think the voting age should match the adult and drinking ages too, because by the logic of giving them time to mature and think rationally so they don't drive drunk, then they should also have that time to mature and think rationally so they can think for themselves
