Pokemon 3DS?

When rumours first started about the new Nintendo handheld, people were saying the Pokemon developers had a dev kit for it. If that is true, and they were amongst the first to get a kit, then why have we not heard more about a Pokemon 3DS game?

I would have thought Pokemon would be a launch title?

Pokemon has never been a launch title. Like, ever. And I'd imagine they're always among the first to get these dev kits since they're a Nintendo studio. Remember though, they're developing Pokemon Black and White for the DS right now. They're not going to rush more games out just because theres a new system.

They didn't get Pokemon on the Gameboy Advance until 2003, two years after the handheld came out. And Pokemon Diamond and Pearl didn't make it to the DS till 2007, almost three years after the DS launched.

From what I know, they're busy working on the new DS game, so we'll probably see pokemon on the 3DS a few years after launch

Maybe they're going to develop a 3DS version of Black and White. Who knows.siLVURcross

I hadn't considered that. That is quite likely now I think about it. Just like we had Twilight Princess on GC and Wii, they might do the same with Pokemon Black and White on the DS and 3DS.

im really curious to how 3d would work with Pokemon i mean the games have always been pretty flat it seems like it would be a game where after and hour or 2 ill turn the 3d off unless its like the Colosseum games where Pokemon are 3d renderedmurat8

not going to happen for a few years, before that though, a pokemoncoloseum gameor soemthing like the 2 pokemon games tha came out on the GFwill come out. And obviously it will have the newest pokemon in it.

With the 3DS the Pokémon games could either continue in their traditional handheld style with its top-down view and 2-D battles or transition into a console style game with a large 3D world with big 3D battles.

I would like to have a combination of both

It's so revolutionary they're not ready to announce it. And honestly, since it's got to be a real fully-polygonal Pokemon game at this point, that's not far from the truth. They want to save that reveal for later to maximize hype.Cherokee_Jack

thats a really good point.. For a while I couldnt understand WHY on earth Black/white was a ds game but this actually makes sense.. They want to save what will be the biggest bombshell in the series history.. Fully 3D pokemon game.. for the right time

old thread is old :P
