Pokemon Conquest Discussion Thread

[Branellope]

Pokemon Conquest was announced at Jump Festa. It's a crossover between the japanese RPG series "Nobunaga" and Pokemon.

Pokemon Conquest is released in the United States on June 23rd, which is the same day that Black 2 and White 2 are released in Japan.

What are your thoughts on this? Do you think that, like Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, this crossover will be the third spin-off series for Gen V? Or just a one-off?

This was once the announcement thread in December, but it's turned into a discussion thread. GO NUTS!

THIS. LOOKS. AMAZING! Importing this from Japan definitely!

[Shiny Celebi]

That actually looks really awesome and different.

[Branellope]

I'm excited for it. Let's hope it comes to the UK too.

Holy mother of hell.

I thought Pokemon would NEVER get to this level.

...I am speechless.

Its for the DS only? Thank god. I'm buying this game in a heartbeat.

So am I. I know nothing of the series, so it'll be awesome.
I hope it'll have online play.

Btw, new images have been added. Feast your eyes and nerdgasm.

It's based in Old Japan and you try to conquer Japan by war or something.

From PokeBeach

Gin has translated the narrator of the video below, who says, "Sharing your heart with Pokemon... Military commanders with hearts connected to Pokemon... a time when he held 17 castles... the Legend of Ranse, resurrected!"

I'd be surprised if this isn't localized.

Given people's tendency to disregard any spin-off, especially in light of the current fan-hype being given to a third version and a remake that may or may not happen, its surprising to see this many positive reactions.

Shoot, I wanted Mega Man, another popular anime, or perhaps MLP, to cross over with Pokemon. :(

Well this came out of left field :0

Not sure how I feel about this just yet...it's just a little..too odd, I mean, I wouldn't have pegged Pokémon of all franchises to do a crossover.
