Thread: What do you want in Pokemon Red and Blue/Gold and Silver eShop release?

You know it's going to happen. Some of the best-selling classics out there. Why not release them in the eShop? :P
If Red and Blue or Gold and Silver were released in the eShop for the 3DS, what kind of stuff do you want to see in them?

The only thing I would change would be fixing the glitches that could screw up your game and making it so that you could trade with others through wireless communication. Other than that, I would keep them completely untouched and release them for the Virtual Console. Or even better, make them 3D Classics. :D

Now to wait for all the nostalgia fans to take over... xD

I would get Silver to 3DS, because then I know there won't be any problems with the save file. Older games I already play on my Game Boy, so I would only download them to 3DS for the sake of trade. If they released the games again, I wish the games could be compatible with the new ones, but I know this must be very hard to fix because of the differences in them. Still, I hope that if the old games are released and people get them from the eshop, that many play them so I can find someone to trade and battle with as in the old days. I've heard people stopped playing Pocket Monsters because they think only Crystal and previous are good. If these games are available again, and enough people play them, then I think some people who quit will start playing Pokemon again.

That would be awesome. I only played Gen IV and V. I'd love to play some earlier games.

I would want glitches to be fixed...the ability to get mew without hacking or event...and the ability to trade with other eShop Pokemon red/blue/gold/silver ONLY. I wouldn't mind crystal or yellow either. Or a trading card game one.

I doubt they will be able to fix all the glitches; sounds like an awful lot of work. What I would like to see though, is the games slightly re-programmed to allow for multiplayer via the 3DS' Wireless capabilities (I'm pretty sure that reason was why a Pokémon game wasn't a GBA Ambassador title...then again, Mario Kart Super Circuit was released with the multiplayer made unable to work....).

Realistically?

Super Game Boy palettes for first gen, please. I mean, WHY didn't the Game Boy Color nor Game Boy Advance support them?! (Yellow doesn't count, as Yellow did have a GBC compatible palette)


What would I want, a "music room" of sorts with all the music from both games in its original format. Because chiptunes are cool. Also of course multiplayer, but I am sure such a re-release wouldn't happen without multiplayer to begin with.

I would love to see them in e-Shop, as I would much prefer to play Pokemon Yellow on a 3DS instead of my old GameBoy Color. I would like to see the same wireless communication features we have today installed on the games and of course all bugs fixed.

I would also like to see an option to transfer Pokemon to B/W and have a special location/ribbon on the Pokemon transfered to tell they came from the old Gen 1 games :D

I want a few simple things added to the original games, fix all the glitches they can, EXCEPT Missingno. Missingno is a legend to many pokémon fans and I want it to destroy my save file on the 3DS, but maybe that's just me :|

Definately being able to trade via wifi, but if they choose to not have the special/physical split then limit trading to just those games. I'd also like the graphics to stay as close to the original as possible, since they look kinda sepia toned when I look at them :D

As everyone else said, multiplayer is a MUST. but does anyone know if any of the Virtual Console or 3D Classic games support multiplayer?

Trust me, you aren't. It is like in music, some people like the "scratchy" sounds of vinyl records over the cleaner digital releases when listening to old music (such as The Beatles music) since the scratchy sound was the part of the original release


I don't care if they leave the old glitches, as long as the porting (and adding the must have multiplayer/trading) doesn't add too many new ones

If they could fix the games up enough it'd be cool. It'd also be really cool if they could implement some of the myths from Gen 1. Mew under the truck and Missingo should be part of the game ^^

Maybe Nintendo can try to put some form of the GTS or PCC in RBY and GS. In Crystal, add in the PCC to the international releases to use the 3DS's wireless features. That would be sweet.
