Is Pokemon Colosseum and its sequel gaining in popularity all the sudden? There's been an noteworthy spike in activity (Let's Play's, reviews, etc.) throughout 2014/2015 compared to previous years. I thought everyone had long forgotten about it these titles by now (been 10+ years) but apparently I stand corrected.

Did people grow tired of the old formula after xy/oras? A sudden synchronized surge of nostalgia?

I'd throw my credit card at a Wii U or later remaster of these titles.
