So why hasn't GF released old Pokemon games on the eShop? I mean, it's not like they're currently getting any revenue off of any main series games except BW2 anyway.

I guess because they can't trade with the new games.

But they could fix that, couldn't they? Even if they had to rebuild the games from the ground up to make them compatible with X and Y, I honestly doubt they'd need a very big team or much of a budget.

Who gives a shit about trading with the new games? It's gen I, you can get most of the 151 originals by simply playing the game.

I'd buy a copy of R/B/Y or G/S/C in a heartbeat.

They said in an interview that it had to do with the high level of connectivity that the games were designed for. Link cables and R/B/Y were a very intertwined thing. They said releasing it on the eShop would restrict that connectivity and it wouldn't be a simple fix.
