>>26502856Yeah, I like to hope we'll get Diamond and Pearl 2 instead of remakes. Especially now that they're adding Bank compatibility to eShop titles - why bother doing Gen 4 remakes when they can just stick them on the eShop and save the resources for D2P2?
I mean, that's clearly what they WANTED to do with ORAS. You could tell all throughout playing it that Game Freak didn't know if they wanted to do a sequel or a remake. Shitty Delta Episode aside, all of the best parts of those games were the brand new elements, like Mallville, Sea Mauville's lore, soaring, DexNav, the new music (for Zinnia and Wally) and so on. The parts that actually carried over from RSE all felt lazily slapped in, or worse, cut down in the name of "streamlining". It was clear as day that they wanted to do new things but felt choked by the remake formula, and truthfully if they had just gone all the way and did Ruby 2/Sapphire 2, we'd have probably been better off for it.
