Pokémon "enhanced" remakes don't really have enhancements

Have you seen Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver in action? Now's your chance. While you're watching the video, try to pay close attention to anything that's different about the upcoming "enhanced" remakes.

Good luck-you'll need it.

You see, there's not much difference between the "enhanced" remakes and its recent predecessors, and that's exactly the problem.

People - kids - are going to buy by the ton regardless.

Blaze9295359d ago

That's why I agree with this article. I don't see why there's so much hype around these upcoming remakes. Sure the originals were good as hell; I enjoyed ever minute playing. And its always better to get updated visuals...but still, its just the same picture with new paintbrushes.

randomwiz5359d ago

its a remake of what the fans favorite generation was, in this generation of video games. The game mechanics are going to be the same, the only thing that differs is how nice and more next gen it is.

If you really want different game mechanics, get nintendo to make pokemon on psp.

gintoki7775359d ago

its the same thing but with enhanced graphics some cutscenes mini games and every pokemon can follow you. plus there are probably more regardless Im getting the new remakes of gold and silver just because i enjoyed silver gold and crystal

BigMassacre5359d ago

Pokemon can be easily compared to Dragon Quest. Fans of either series know what to expect with a new installment, and they like it that way. Stray too far from the tried and true formula, and you're gonna have a huge problem on your hands.

But a 3D Pokemon is long overdue. Fans or no fans, the Gamecube tech demo sort of confirmed that Nintendo knew it was highly expected.

BigMassacre5359d ago

I myself would like to see the much wanted Pokemon MMO, though I don't know how far Nintendo would go to reach that new level for the series.

i like pokemon but i would like to see something new with it. I don't what, i mean even have it so we can be on the bad team in the game or something.
hell even add the ability to get all the badges in each region or something.

not impressed15359d ago

funny thing is they already remade pearl/diamond (platinum)

Nitrowolf25359d ago

well they always do that
blue/red/green =yellow (i think)? leafgreen/firered are remakes of those
silver/gold= crystal
ruby/saphire= emerald
daimond/pearl= platinum

presto7175359d ago

When are they gonna add something new...

YoungJuvi5359d ago

Look ll these games that are doing something different, GOWIII, GT5, Halo ODST and Reach, Takken 6, Cod4, Guitar Hero, Rachet and Clank, Forza3, Metal Gear, Madden and the list goes on.

Nitrowolf25359d ago

idk if your saying that they are doing the pokemon thing but they are not. Pokemon always has the same story with new pokemon, but still the same story. all those games (well except some like GH,Madden, mybe tekken and mybe GT5, and mybe forza 3) all have a completly different story. I mean i won't know right away what to do in GOW3? i know some of the story and it not the same as the other ones

Erasing Another Player’s Pokémon File: An Issue I Didn’t Expect

Brandon of Mammoth Gamers recently purchased a used copy of Pokémon SoulSilver. Before he started his journey through the second generation, he came across another player's file and had an unexpected problem hit him.

Sometimes you just need to move ahead and erase old game saves.

Lon3wolf2081d ago

Indeed especially when it is someone else's save files on a cartridge that they have sold on.

PhoenixUp2081d ago

This won’t be an issue on Switch when you can have one save file per account, meaning players can finally abuse the trading system

WeedyOne2081d ago

You really shouldn't give a shit about another gamer's save file on a used game you purchased... While its fun to walk in another's shoes for a bit you shouldn't feel guilty about erasing the save file. I mean if they cared about the time invested and keeping the save file i'm sure they would not have sold the game for pennies on the dollar to a used game store. Please wipe the save and start your own adventure. Game on!

franwex2081d ago (Edited 2081d ago )

I bought a used Final Fantasy Tactics for the Gameboy Advance and it has a save file of about 300 hours in it.
I feel guilty about deleting that file, luckily I can start my own separate one. I am hoping once I do and beat the game and compare my party to the previous player's and see what we did differently.

Why We're Still Playing Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver

NL:
With each new generation of Pokémon, the overall number of Pokémon in the National Dex has climbed far beyond the original 151. Obviously, Pokémon has been spread over multiple generations of hardware, and this has further made it more difficult to "catch 'em all". On the Game Boy Advance, Game Freak began a method of alleviating this somewhat with remakes of the first generation games, giving gamers a more streamlined method of collecting the original Pokémon. This was continued on the DS with remakes of the second generation of games, Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver.

Best games in the series to be honest.

Flare1492972d ago

Because if you play it like I do and are constantly adding newly caught Pokemon to your lineup it takes an eternity? Thank goodness for EXP share in the later games haha
