Pokemon Gold & Silver Remake
Warning: intended for Pokemon fanatics only, read at your own discretion
Ever since Pokemon did a remake of the Red and Blue gameboy games into FireRed and LeafGreen for gameboy advance, I’d been waiting for the day they’d do a remake of my favorite Pokemon series: Gold and Silver. Of all the Pokemon games I’ve played, all the way from Red to the latest Pearl, and trust me, I’ve played them all, my favorite remains the Gold & Silver series, taking place in the Johto region then making its way back to Kanto. So of course, I was super psyched to find out that they are indeed doing a remake for the DS called HeartGold and SoulSilver. New features include:
- Your starter will follow you around, much like Pikachu in Pokemon Yellow
- Playable characters received a completely new design
- There will be a special Pichu event at the Ilex Shrine for those that preordered tickets to the 12th movie
- New designs for the Pokegear
The game is set to be released in Fall 2009 in Japan, and in Mid-2010 in North America. I can’t wait! 
I’ll write about my Vegas vacation in my next post, I promise!

Awww hahaha Pokémon – that brings back memories. I played it a lot during the Red/Blue and Gold/Silver era … Hahaha maybe I will get my hands on that new Pokémon game too, would be fun to play it again after such a long time :] Thanks for sharing the news! My eyes are currently fixed on Assassin’s Creed 2 and all the MGS news & rumors *le sigh*

Pokemon got old when they came out with one too many pokemons, but remakes of older games are always fun

I loved fire red, it was awesome replaying my first pokemon game in color + lots of new features.
