With the new 3DS does that mean we can finally get a 3D pokemon game?

Also no don't mention the pokemon battle stadium game. I am talking about a pokemon game that is similar to the 2d games but now in 3d. I mean will they finally evolve the game. It basically still plays like the first game. They can't make it so that you actually play as the pokemon in realtime.? it would be cool to play as the pokemon and have to actually dodge and use tactics to defeat other pokemon.

Why? the gameplay needs to be changed. They can only do so much in 2d.

So make it an action-RPG? Yeah, that would suck. If they do anything at all to it (and I would be fine if they didn't; I like me some archaic-ass turn based RPG combat), they ought to give you an action bar. Unless Square-Enix has that patented.

Hopefully. Always wanted a traditional Pokemon in 3D.

Imagine flying on a Pigeotto in full 3D..... *Drool*

well if they go action rpg, the balancing becomes a huge issue we can go to free camera (i just like the bird's eye view more), i wouldnt mind, but i dont really want a change in battle system. there's too much at risk

Either 2.5 that pops out like 3-D XD

Or a very simplistic 3D dont expect much from a company whose games have been 2d and 2.5 only to dazzle you with 3D

Yeah, but most likely it'll be 3D-sprites.

I am just throwing ideas for something different. I haven't bought a Pokemon game since Pokemon crystal. It is already turned based. If they presented it in a 3D fashion that would probably be cool, but yeah I can agree with what you want.

They don't have to do that. I just think it would be cool concept. I just want something different.

I want a Pokemon game where you can explore and see Pokemon walking around in real time. Do away with the random battles. That to me would be the ultimate Pokemon game imo

While some real time elements might be nice, I would rather they kept the main combat turn based.

I agree with this. I don't understand why the sound has not evolved at all.

Nothing is wrong with 8-Bit. What is wrong is that the same music I heard in, what, 1997? I am hearing in 2010?

Seeing as the 3ds has power almost on par with the GC, they better have it in full 3d....or at least really detailed animated sprites.

Keep the old graphics but with much improved and detailed sprites.

Also, i'd like a change in some of the gameplay. The Levelling system is weak imo, i think you should be given more input on your pokemopn build for instance each level you gain you're given points to upgrade and of the several stats, depending on the Pokemon that is levleling up, it costs less points to level up a certain aspect.

For instance for an Onyx it takes less points to level up it's defence, but more for speed etc.

Don't be silly! There is waaay too much milkage left in selling slightly different takes on the original. Just for example here are some more titles they could extract cash from you with:

Pokemon: Slightly Mauve Edition

Pokemon: Super Collectors Edition (Includes red, blue, gold, purple, blamanche and strawberry cheesecake)

These are just two from an almost infinite list.

Nintendo - 2D is the new 3D, 8-bit is the new 128-bit and we are geniuses at selling last gen tech for todays prices.

The 3DS is only going to be slightly more powerful than the DS, so don't expect anything like super improved graphics or a polygonal Pokemon game. Expect the 3DS to be to the DS what the Wii is to the GCN.

Plus, it would save Nintendo a ton of time and money to just stick with sprites and static battle images. Besides, if they did go 3D, a ton of people would complain for some reason and Nintendo would just wind up re-using the Pomemon Stadium 1 models again for the fifth time.

Actually the 3DS will have gamecube like graphics. If it uses the Tegra 2 it will look many times better. The Tegra 2 can run the unreal 3 engine. Also the gamecube graphics were pretty good. Just think of Resident Evil 4. The 3DS is a HUGE jump in graphics compared to the DS if nintendo is telling the truth. They rarely lie (if ever) about graphics. below N64 to GameCube is a big jump. I expect the graphics to look better than some gamecube games.

Unfortunately, Nintendo never stated that it would have GCN-levelk graphics... that was all speculation and a rumour started by some guy at E3. While Tegra is rumoured to be the chip powerfing the 3DS, I really doubt Nintendo would really put something like Tegra 2 into the system. That would make the 3DS like, three times more powerful than the Wii and we already know how Nintendo feels about graphics.

At best, I would expect the 3DS's graphics capability to be at a similar level to the iPhone but a fair bit behind PSP and way behind GCN.

You already use tactics to defeat other Pokemon. I don't see why people think there is more strategy to realtime, if anything there is less as it is more twitch-based. Anyway, playing as a Pokemon would simply not be Pokemon, at least in a major title. I say keep the gameplay relatively the same, but upgrade the interface and look of the game.

Well I would love to see them keep the same basic game as Heart Gold/Soul Silver, viewpoint and all, but just make all the characters proper 3D now, and make all the battles proper 3D too (Pokemon Stadium style), update all the sounds/cries for all the Pokemon, and maybe expand the multi-player aspect a bit so human players can go online and wander around the map talking to and battling other human players, like a basic MMO, and then display it all in 3D 3D if you get what I mean.

That would be enough for me to be very happy.

NIEM0

The DSi is already to the DS what the Wii is to the GCN. Except that most wouldn't consider it a brand new system (Nintendo didn't really treat it as such). Presumably the 3DS will be at least more powerful than the DSi.

Given the 3DS's nature, a 3D pokemon makes some sense.

I think it will be in 3D, it the easiest change to make without changing the formula.
