say what you will, but a Yellow Version Remake where I can choose to start with Eevee instead of Pikachu is something I have wanted since the very beginning, and now it's happening, and I'm so excited about it.

on top of that, the fact that it incorporates compatibility with Pokemon Go (a current and modern Pokemon game with the same target audience) is incredible and a smart move both in terms of marketing and in terms of features that fans who were around when Gen 1 was new will want. take it from me, I'm one of them. that nostalgia factor is real, yo~

also, you claim that it's not got online multiplayer, but I feel like that can't be quite true. :/ 1.) all Pokemon games have multiplayer functionality by their very nature. 2.) not all games have to have online multiplayer to be fun (Dad of Boy is proof of that) and I frankly never liked online multiplayer games because I think gamer culture is toxic and unfun. and 3.) the trailer clearly showed that you can have multiplayer play IN THE OVERWORLD. so what the fuck are you even talking about? x_X

and finally, being condescending about the difference between "boys" and "men" because you don't like one game is really beneath you. =.= do you have to be mean to other people just because you don't like the game? it's fine if you don't like it, but please just let us enjoy it. not every game has to appeal to everyone, or even to the broadest demographic.

I for one have never been happier or more excited for a new Pokemon game in my life than I am now~ ^.^

Just an FYI, I don't entirely agree with the boys/men aspect of the argument, I just find the picture comparing the two games silly, I'll clarify that though, thank you very much. Sides, I'm not belittling someone for liking the game, I could care less if you enjoy it or not, wether it be by guilty pleasure or enjoyment, it's simply my opinion and it can be seen as the unpopular one.

Also glad you're happy about a new game coming out, hope you enjoy it and I do hope I am wrong about the game, I WANT to be since this is the first game I'm not looking forward to.

Also it's been a while since I've see you, good to see ya :)

In addition to that, I believe personally they did enough to give for the Hen 1 fans since at this point, I don't believe there's enough of them to really sell this to, and considering every generation had some form of pandering with Gen 2 having you visit the place, Gen 6 with several gen 1 megas, and places that resemble places in general 1, and gen 7 having several Alolan variants, I simply believe it's time to acknowledge the other Gens rather than going more for Gen 1 time and time again.

I'm glad to hear that, then~ ^.^ sorry for jumping down your throat, I thought you felt 100% mirrored feelings about the game as that image you shared.... >///<

and yeah, you may be very right. I think there has been alot of calls for certain other gens to get remakes too that haven't yet. and there is still tons of new stuff to keep exploring. so that's all totally valid!

just, I'm still gonna be personally super psyched about getting to play a Yellow Version remake where I can choos eto start with Eevee. >w<

No worries my dude, I just don't really like the fact that they decided to go this route instead of, perhaps, a Gen 4 remake like so many were asking for. And the game from what I can see, is incredibly straightforward and marketed to kids rather than adults. Plus Pokemon go as been slowly but surely declining in popularity, so if Pokemon Go dies, a part of Pokemon Lets Go dies with it.

Honestly, I'm happy you're excited for it, but just be warned, don't let the hype blind you because you can get hit by the Dissapointment comet once you do. The hype goes down and so does that initial feeling of "Holy crap this is amazing!" Which is how I felt about every pokemon game, which is why Pokemon Sun and Moon and the Ultras ended up dissapointing me, Sun and Moon because it felt incomplete and Ultra Soon and Moon because it didn't really feel like an upgrade but more like the full version, in addition to the lackluster addition of Ultra Metropolis and Ultra Wormhole since those were the major things.

hahaha glad your loving that tweet.

yeah, this games are not very attractive, but well, we have to wait for 2019, since for that year announced the game with the 8th generation

they said that this game is for the casual gamers, and the game for the next year with the 8 gen if for the competitive

I'm kinda surprised that people haven't caught on yet that Nintendo is the one game company that really goes to bat for us casuals. they are really more like a toy company than a video game company. it's the main reason I appreciate them so much despite alot of their failings and BS.

I do agree, BUT as a Switch game it's completely possible that other Pokemon or even whole regions could become available later on as DLC! o:

The problem is that pokemon Go is an app game... So micro transactions... I really hope it doesn't affect the game itself... Because it would make the versions a pay to win game on switch!

I said this on Twitter but I don't mind repeating myself. I would love another Gen. 1 remake simply because its the where the series started. Fire Red and Leaf Green were great games, don't get me wrong, but besides abilities and bug fixes from Gen 2 and 3, as well as the Sevii Islands which are optional, I don't think the games have aged as well as many people think. I would rather see these games get redone again with updated graphics, updated mechanics, and just seeing Kanto for the first time in 3D.

The only thing good about this is that it took Nintendo many generations to realize 'OH! MULTI PLAYER POKEMON!'. And the sad thing is? Fans thought of it first and would of made a mod for any of the existing games faster than Nintendo.

Thoughts on this game:
I am quite mad that they are pandering to the genwunners and cared less about other gens. Quite sick of Kanto pokemons getting the spotlight a lot actually.

And it worries me that it seems they only doing pure kanto pokemons, judging from the description.

Its like giving a birth to a lot of children, and you always giving the first child more goodies than their siblings.

Holy shit, someone agrees with me, that's a surprise lol

Well i tend to have very unpopular opinions. so yeah. Lol

It's scary that I'm more thrilled about Pokemon Quest than Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee.

Simplifying gameplay for people like this is showing they don't have confidence in the product being itself and it makes me worry about how they are going to do Generation 8. Pandering to the "casual" audience is a duo blade that can be worst by not believing the audience can get into the true game even with the tutorial in play.

Absolutely agree with the pic, but I'd also add WOMEN centric too.

As you need to remember, the CASUAL market has two genders, not just one.
Who plays candycrush/use their cellphone to sell themselves the most? Hmm..

Of course
