Going to be AMAZING  

Yeah really looking forward to this one. Glad they are finally making the entire game 3D. Just bought a 3DS XL few weeks ago too, so I'm definitely ready!

Says they are releasing it in October for a simultaneous worldwide release which is nice too!

Yeah I can't wait. Hopefully ill have enough for whatever new Nintendo system they might release before the Pokemon game, if they don't release a new Nintendo system ill get the 3DS XL

The XL was released just this past July/August (of 2012) while the original 3DS was released in 2010. Like the original DS phat to DS Lite, and then DSi, Nintendo seems to be using a 2-3 year release cycle for each handheld console iteration/improvement. So I have a feeling the XL will be the only new handheld we see from Nintendo for a while :p. At this point though any 3DS system seems like it will be supported by Nintendo, and Pokemon for a while

Also just realized it looks like they finally ran out of colors for new Pokemon versions considering they are using letters now :p  

I wanted them to work on a remake on Sapphire and Ruby :/

Same! If Game Freak had kept its usual release cycle when they released Black 2 and White 2.  

Need on Wii u... with the gamepad *q*  

Looks amazing. Sadly I cant afford the 3DS XL. :c  

Looks dumb. With every passing generation the pokemon get uglier and uglier. Only way I am buying this is for the Jigglypuffs.

Also from the trailer, the battle still seems to be still the same and not exactly "3D"  

 

Ign:

"Nintendo has just announced a worldwide simultaneous release for the first ever 3D Pokemon games, coming to the 3DS in October."

It's almost 10 years old too.


I'm not really sure what all the hype over a "3d" pokemon game is. What's so great about it being 3d? Pokemon Colloseum and Gale of Darkness were 3d, and yeah they were amazing. It isn't like its the first 3d pokemon game.


Not to be a total hyprocrite, but the graphics in the game seem rather rushed. All of the areas seem like they just use an image texture background rather than actually making real 3d scenes via polygons models. The Nintendo 3ds has much more graphic capability than that.  

The only reason this has hype over the other 3D titles is the fact it is pokemon's first 3D RPG title. The other 3D titles barely count as a regular pokemon game. Sure in Gale you walked around, but the focus was on "shadow pokemon" and the selection was very limited. Well those are my thoughts anyways.

I'm pretty sure they said that the images depicted in the trailer were not final. They still have a good 10 months to get it polished up.

Pokemon Colosseum had a full story, same with xd Gale of Darkness. Pokemon Colosseum has as much gameplay as most of the handheld games, and in my opinion it has a better story and atmosphere than the other handheld games.

Pokemon Battle Revolution may be what you're thinking if, it was 3d but there wasn't really much to do. Pokemon Colosseum and Gale of Darkness are fully in depth games with tons of gameplay.
