If you were planning on buying a Nintendo 3DS in order to perhaps experience a whole new side to Pokemon Black/White, you can give your wallet a break.

Your old DS will be just fine, and the new kid (the 3DS) wont be getting any special treatment.

Junichi Masuda, director for Pokemon Black and Pokemon White confirmed that there would be no special features or upgrades for the new titles with the coming of the 3DS.

As Masuda put it, "Other than just being able to play the game normally, there’s nothing special if you use a 3DS."

It comfirms to you idiots who thought Nintendo would really include 3DS features in b/w while the Japanese version didn't and not to mention it's just a DS game!

I don't see how people are idiots hoping for 3DS features on B/W when it could have been a logical possibility...

There is no logic to it. A game developed for the DS will not have features for the next generation hardware.

No, in my post Junichi Masuda himself director of GameFreak comfirms this.

In that post Junichi Masuda never said anything about the 3DS or Black/White this post confirms that any rumors floating around about 3DS bonuses for Black/White are officially axed.

But who were we to know if the DS Game didn't have any hidden information made for the 3DS. If it did I can tell you now allot of hardcore Pokemon fans would buy the 3DS on release date for their precious Pokemon Games.

Sure it's highly unlikely that would ever happen but when you open up your mind anything is logical.

EDIT: I'd appreciate a Post Merge. I didn't realize I double posted...

I'd of thought the jp b/w roms have been severely raided because of the game mechanics, moves, pokemon stats and everything else the pokemon community needs. Any 3DS data would have been found...and surely Nintendo would have highly advertised if b/w did have 3DS tech when played on it.

Doesn't the DSi read some cartridge data differently than the DS Lite does? (I have a source on this, but the data mentioned is kinda small-scale.) In that same way, isn't it possible that the DSi is told to ignore some data on the cartridge that the 3DS can read, thus making it impossible(?) for any roms that have been released thus far to contain the 3DS-only data?

I'm not saying this is actually what's going on, especially not now that GameFreak has even said it's not happening.

If it were a "we don't comment on rumors" bs response, then yeah.

Japanese devs tend to put less features in the Japanese version, put more features in the US/EU version and then re-release the game again in Japan with features that are in the US/EU and sometimes more features and then never touch the game again, all in the name of profit.

So Black/White 3D was a possibility.

Yeah but this isn't SE. When did that ever happen to any Pokemon game? It's more likely that the possible 3rd Version will be a 3DS game.

not exactly the same order, but pokemon red/green(jp) and later improved versions released as pokemon blue(jp/eu/us) and red(eu/us)

Not surprised.
I was expected this. It was just another IGN screw-up.

It doesn't say that. The article just says that Pokemon Black/White won't have any 3DS exclusive features.

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.

    It inserts a newline in a random spot.

    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
