New Pokemon Games that may actually be New!
Earlier today on some Japanese Pokemon Show for children, it was announced that two new Pokemon games would be coming out in June 2012, that's this year. The names of these games are...
Pokemon Black Version 2
Pokemon White Version 2
That's right, Nintendo pulled a Square Enix with their JRPG franchise. As a fan of Pokemon, although I'm nowhere near a fan now as I was say a decade ago, I'm pretty interested to see how they change up the formula this time around. While many were expecting a third revision of Black and White in the form of Gray to be announced, and for the 3DS, all I can say is good for Nintendo for at least keeping it interesting. Black and White weren't the best Pokemon games, but they definitely felt like a good ending point for any Pokemon fan. After finishing Black, I felt like my journey with Pokemon was complete.
It just felt like the end, having played every Pokemon game since the beginning, the formula of facing 8 Gym Leaders, beating Team ____ and winning the title of 'Best Pokemon Trainer Ever' had reached its' natural conclusion. However, announcing a sequel to that type of formula, where the structure may be entirely different entices me just a bit more than ever before. We'll see though, as I definitely want something new out of this Pokemon game.
