http://nintendo3dsdaily.com/nintendoarticles/why-a-pokemon-ruby-and-sapphire-remake-may-never-happen/ this article is so full of shit I don't even know where to start
>1. Backwards compatibility makes it Unnecessary do you seriously think a 7 years old kid (toward whom the Pokémon series is directed) own a Nintendo DS AND a copy of RSE? DO you seriousl think GF barely gives a shit about this?
>2. Content and Pokemon from Gen 5 couldn’t be logically included This is ignorance beyond ignorance. Fire Red and Leaf Green didn't have a single gen III Pokémon, and had all their gen II poké in the Sevii Islands. Same applies for HGSS, where only newer Pokémon related to Kanto and Johto were easely available (b-b-but radio stuff route 101 and shit, but that's another story)
>3. No Major Gameplay and Design Tweaks would be needed JESUS CHRIST WE'RE COMPARING A 32-BIT GAME TO A PORTABLE XBOX 360
Besides they can whatever they want with the story, a sequel would make sense and add a lot of stuff while "making sense"
jesus christ, why is so hard for some people to admit we will have Ruby/Sapphire remake?

>>13250340 just this
a remake is the easiest way to make money without creating new pokémon and story.
HGSS sold as much as Ruby and Sapphire (really, check wikipedia if you don't believe me, we're like 12,7 million copies for the remakes against 13 million for gen III), those money are so easy I really can't think of an alternative.

Seriously, how many times have these kinds of threads been made? It even became a joke where people would constantly focus on the smallest of details to say why it's been confirmed.
If the remakes are confirmed, millions of threads each day telling people to get fucked for months, or the occasional thread where people argue that it'll eventually come out when it has yet to be confirmed? It seems like either way, we lose.

>>13250279 OP.. why is it necessary to remake every single Generation?
The article has a point about the first two gens getting a remake.. so we could trade over the pokemon we find and raise into the modern Generation.
I'm just saying that if we could trade over the pokemon in 3rd gen.. then wouldn't it be pointless to make a remake??

>>13251124 That's because there was no Gen 5 remake.
Part of me thinks there wont be a remake because Gen 1 fans will want ANOTHER red remake and all houses face south, and another part thinks there will be one since marketers know that popularity feeds on itself, and a remake will cause more sales.

The region was meant to be a tropical one, and show the theme of land and water. The only time you would EVER need to Surf is when you're getting to the 7th gym-Elite Four. That's it.
If you wanted Regis, you didn't have to Surf, you could've went to fucking TRU and gotten one. You wanted to go to Sky Pillar? Buy a shit ton of repels from the Department Store which GameFreak purposedly put before you went to Mossdeep so you wouldn't get fucked by Tentacools and Wingul.
