Ant-Shimmin Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 It's probably been mentioned before and ruled out by Nintendo, but wouldn't a Pokemon RPG be awesome, I mean countless pokemon and more area to discover than any FF....Anyone agree?

Cube Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Only if it had a completely new battle system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike-zim Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 even better. a pokemon mmorpg. stuff dreams are made of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksnowman Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Everyone knows what a great idea it would be, its lunacy that Nintendo hasnt went for it yet. They must make enough sales of the Stadium/ Coloseum type games. And what was the thinking behind this thread anyway? Talk about timing with E3 and all.

flameboy Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 I just think the Pokemon RPG is so deeply routed as a handheld game they just don't see it as a fully fletched console RPG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike-zim Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 I dont get why though. I would be absolutly glues to a pokemon rpg for a home console. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcj metroid Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 I still don't understand why this hasn't happened. The idea is so obvious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steggy Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 I still don't understand why this hasn't happened. The idea is so obvious. It's been obvious since they brought out the first pokemon games, with people wanting a game like this on the N64. I honestly can't see it happening if it hasn't happened already....maybe I shouldn't say things like that just before E3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcj metroid Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 NO it will never happen but I really wonder why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steggy Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 NO it will never happen but I really wonder why. Yeah it's one of those unanswerable questions. What is the sound of one hand clapping? If a tree falls in the woods and no one is around, does it make a sound? Why hasn't nintendo released a Pokemon RPG on a home console? : peace: Deep man : peace: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dilli Gee Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Awesome idea - especially if online! - but will never happen. Why? God knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triforcemario Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 I would love something like this, but not like Pokemon Colloseum/XD: Gale of Darkness, since those games had no exploration whatsoever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petey Piranah Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Is there any Pokemon that would be able to beat Ganondorf in his beast form? (Smash Bros scenario excluded). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serebii Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 There were console RPGs...they went a different way from the main games and people bitched...its why Nintendo went back to just Stadium style with Battle Revolution A MMORPG is never going to happen. It goes against Nintendo's Online Strategy. MMORPGs cannot work with friend codes Pokemon itself is a handheld franchise. Thats how it works so well, being able to play anywhere and everywhere. A Home Console version just wouldn't fit right. Nintendo knows this and thats why the console games have essentially been side-games and spin-offs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-Bird Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 As much as I love the Pokemon games and will continue to buy the new Gameboy/DS versions as long as they're released, it would be nice for them to take the franchise a step further as GTA did from 2-3. As soon as I think of a huge 3D Pokemon world, I drool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike-zim Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Why not? yeah it would need a little adjusting but all the basics are there. Thousands of other pokemon trainers adventureing around the world trying to be the very best. Gotta catch em all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petey Piranah Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 I just want to clarify here, the proposal here is that Nintendo release a Pokemon MMO game, thats a Massively multiplayer online game, so would this mean that we effectively would all be trainers in a huge online world where we ride around various towns and we run into people online and battle them, and also cooperate with others to do double teams, form gangs and bring down superior players?

mike-zim Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 that would be the basics of it yes. obviously there would be mechanics that would need to be introduced. Pokemon with different abilities etc. Leveling up pokemon would have to be made harder so the game lasted but i would say that is the basics of it.

Petey Piranah Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 I can see why so many people are yearning for this to become a reality. This could quite seriously surpass GTA San Andreas in sales.This would be unprecedented in Japan especially... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
