It's doubtful to make a Crystal remake. Because think about it, Platinum is the 3rd of a previous two. Like RB was to Y. GS was to C. RS was to E. What I am saying is, they had a previous game to go by which made that 3rd easier to make improvements on. And since HG/SS is a remake of a previous... they already have something to go by, now its a matter of updating and improving graphics and play, changes here and there and make more to do. And well... I think there was a Pokemon Green and all originally, because it was the start of the games, they maybe didn't think it would work out? And made a version of each starter instead. But I dunno. Edit: Oh, they better put in the Mach Bike. in FR it was taken out which make egg hatching a bit longer than it should be.

About when it might come out in the US. I think Japan it is this fall? And looking back on Fire Red, we got it about 7-8 months after Japan did. So I can only guess around that time frame again. Would be awesome if shorter than that. Still a long wait either way.

Ironic, that video was put on May 10th of last year? When the announcement was going to be made May 10th in Japan? Heheh. Ah well it's great to see this remake which we all knew was coming but some of us still had our doubts about it. They sure kept it hidden for a long while, though there were hints and we expected it, nothing had been confirmed till now. GSC was most near everyone's favorite. Sure I got Ruby and Sapphire and Platinum and they are nice and all but just don't stick with me. I had played Fire Red much longer because of the memories and it was a remake of a classic. I will feel the same about this remake of HG/SS, though not the same nostalgia feeling, there are still the memories and the first two generations were the best. Though... GSC did seem rather short even though it had Johto and Kanto, the areas were rather empty and there was very little preventing you from the next gym. I am hopeful that they add more events and story in between gyms and more to do before you can go to the next gym. Obviously for the maps to be better as well. Just that was long ago and I am sure the gameboy color cartridge could not hold that much memory and they sort of rushed it at the end. But this time, with this day and age, they SHOULD add more story and events and things to do. I know they will update with how pokemon games are now with berries and their stats and moves. And I am pretty sure they are gonna try to keep it wi-fi compatible with DPPt. Are there gonna be new moves? New pokemon evolutions of older pokemon? Who knows? We will just have to wait until more information shows up about all this. They better not disappoint. Though I know there are alot of you out there who don't like Nintendo for doing this or that and just hate on them, but think about it, with everyone getting ROMs of their new games they lose out on money so this only tries to level it out. So blame yourselves? :bidoof: ( Though I don't seem to see Nintendo bashing on here like I do in other places. Then again I am new to this site and only seen this post and another. Still though, it kind of applies and there is far worse than Nintendo out there. ) Edit: It better not be DSi only just to get us to get DSi, if it is then I will look down on Nintendo somewhat. I highly doubt it is but always that chance.
