Pokemon Black and White 2

Postby Flames of Yagami » Mon Feb 27, '12, 1:22 am

Well this is a first, instead of remakes of Ruby and Sapphire or a third (Grey) Version, we're getting direct sequels to Pokemon Black and White. And it's not a long wait either, they'll be out by June in Japan and they're already confirmed for a US release. 2 new forms of Kyurem will be the new mascots.

I don't see why it's for DS instead of 3DS. It's not like it would hurt the sales, it could've actually boosted 3DS sales. Pokemon Crystal was only for GBC instead of regular GB like Gold and Silver and it did well enough. And besides that, it's Pokemon, it'd be successful on pretty much anything. Anyway, I wonder what changes they're going to make besides the new forms of Kyurem.

A "new" Pokemon ?? Again ? I've abandoned the serie a long time ago and didn't really want to go back ion it but it's surely great news for the fans.

It is kind of odd that Nintendo would be releasing a DS game at this point instead of branding it for 3DS. Maybe this game reuses an old engine that didn't use any of the 3DS' new features. It'll probably still play on the 3DS, but making it compatible with the older system might increase sales of the game.

Check out this awesome anime promo for BW2

Forget the overused, kid-friendly stories about Ash, Pikachu, and all of the friendship stuff, this is how a Pokemon anime should be done. It even gives the 1st (and best) season a run for its money, but I guess that's just my nostalgia talking :D

Well it certainly doesn’t feel like Pokemon :blank: . I’m getting a Shadow Star Narutaru (look that anime up if you don’t know it) vibe from it actually. Interesting nonetheless.
