Would anybody want a Pokemon Channel for the Nintendo Wii? One that's not at all like the Gamecube?
-
So what does this channel do?
-
I think he/she's talking about a Wii version of the GCN game Pokemon Channel, which was a lot like the N64 game Hey you, Pikachu but without the frustration of shouting into a microphone to make Pikachu listen to you. I actually like this idea. I believe the Wii is a lot better fitted for a game like Pokemon Channel than the GCN ever was.
-
But... but...
One that's not at all like the Gamecube?
-
No. Personally, a Pokemon Channel on the Wii would be a waste of time.
-
I'd prefer a whole new Hey You Pikachu!-style game except you'd be able to talk to any Pokemon of your choosing. A game like that can go pretty deep.
-
I think most Pokemon games besides Blue and Red are bad. What ever happened to the old style of just collecting badges and raising adorable freaks of nature? It's sad, really.
-
What about Gold, Silver, Crystal, Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, Fire, Leaf, and the soon to be released Diamond and Pearl?
-
They're just not the same. I've played them up to Emerald, and all the Pokemon look like Digimon or whatever it's called.
-
A Pokemon Channel eh? I thought it would be like Pokemon Box for the Gamecube, but for Diamond and Pearl too.

So just because there's a change in artistic style means the game's formula is completely different?
-
I kind of agree. It's hard to explain but after Gold and Silver, you just don't get the same feeling. The Pokemon in Ruby and Sapphire barely feel like Pokemon at all... they're just, something. Not to mention that achieving your original objective, to catch 'em all, would be just about impossible (provided they ALL were in one game for you to catch).
On the other hand I thought PMD was pretty awesome though. A nice break away from "tradition." Maybe that's the problem... after three generations the general idea of "Become the best trainer in the world while protecting humanity from the evil forces of Team Blank" gets boring.
But now I see I've completely gotten off-topic. That's my bad.
-
Heck, I thought it was practically impossible to catch 'em all from the very beginning unless you cheated the system to get all 3 starters.
And Ruby/Sapphire had Skitty, so they win.
-
I swear, I thought up the concept of a world inhabited by sentient Pokemon years ago. They're such brain thieves.

I don't know how to explain it, man. I played them, and they just weren't that good. They didn't have the feel of Red and Blue. The storyline of the first game was just flat out fun, and hen Gold and Silver came out...............I just don't know.

But isn't FireRed and LeafGreen remakes of Red and Blue?
-
Personally, I found Gold and Silver to be the highest point of the series. Nothing beats the sense of amazement I got out of it back in fourth grade... *sigh of reminiscence*
-
I'd rather have a Pokemon Snap sequel. There was a rumor there was one coming for the DS, but some cruel person did a fake :(

Dear Fungi Forum members, I am currently posting this message from the Wii's Internet Channel. Awsomest thing ever.

FireRed and LeafGreen are indeed remakes of Red and Blue. They chose green instead of blue because they didn't want people confusing Sapphire with it (apparently they thought FireRed was light enough that it wouldn't be confused with the dark-red Ruby). Also, cheating devices are required to "catch 'em all" in any game except for PMD, unless you're lucky enough to have been at a special event/gone to the Pokémon Center and gotten Mew/Celebi/Deoxys that way. The starters have been tradable from the beginning of the series.
-
No, they chose green because that was the original companion to red. Japan had Red and Green, then Blue, then Yellow, with blue being the version of the game released here.

Whoops. >_<
It's kinda hard to see the text on my TV screen.
Anyway, to stay on topic, I'm surprised they haven't made a WaterBlue or LightningYellow yet.
