  • I wanna be the very best...
  • Just what we needed... MayB 1day they will use 3DS technology...
    * Also, has any1 else pick up how the people that want 2 B 1st so bad on rare occasions, post anything worthwhile? It's almost like showing the world just how pointless & meaningless what they have 2 say is... If some1 called them lame or stupid they would get mad chances are... But when they call themselves lame or petty, they think it is cute & funny... So nice joke, the people that actually read this article didn't think the game "Also Looks retarded" (not my words), as much as the person that posted that comment... Funny, I get it...
  • Yes!! Being a gamer that's strapped for cash, I'm really happy to be seeing many of the new Pokemon titles being released for the DS and not the 3DS (which I don't have.) That being said, I really want to see new mainline Pokemon entries on a next-gen handheld at some point in the near future.

    I find it interesting that it's going under the title of "Pokemon Conquest" (LAME!!) instead of being under the "Nobunga's Ambition" moniker, though. It's probably so little kids aren't scared away at the prospects of a good, old fashioned strategy RPG title. :-D
  • the newest version of pokemon just looks really stupuid. But i still liked how most of the original are some what related to real animals or machines.
  • It still surprises me how much interest people still have in the Pokemon series.
  • We'll see about this one. I don't know anything about Nobunaga's Ambition but I do know that the history of Pokémon spin-offs does not inspire a whole lot of confidence in me. Still, a Pokémon strategy game does sound interesting, and I dig the feudal Japan-inspired setting.

  • This is the first DS game in a very, very, very, very, very, long time that I feel the need to get.

    Actually that's false.  SoulSilver only came out two years ago.

  • I'm actually really looking forward to this game. It looks really awesome! ^_^

  • I think the combination of these two franchises is intriguing. Now, that I've watched the trailer, the potential of a Pokemon Strategy RPG is very exciting to me. I'm interested in getting my hands on it soon.

  • Interesting concept for sure.

    I'd rather try this out than Black and White 2.

  • Ugh. Why does Nintendo have to release another bad Pokemon game? This is a shame. Nintendo really needs to release a great Pokemon game. If Nintendo releases a Pokemon Mystery Dungeon game on the Nintendo 3DS, then I would definitely buy it, but, if it is another game like this or Pokepark, then I will definitely not buy it.
  • I'll still stick with the original 251. I stopped following after Johto (The second generation) and haven't looked back at the series since.
  • Make it for the 3 D S
  • Pokemon Tactics!!! This excites me.
  • YES!!!! So happy this is coming to the states!

  • Mmm yeah, I don't know, if it has mostly ones from the fifth generation, that doesn't sound too exciting. Oh well.
  • seeing how nintendo has no idea how to make a good pokemon game, i will tell them how. and no good sales don't equal good game. make it open word to the tune of kingdom of amalur just with turn based combat (that within it has quick-time button press events for things like jump and dodge). make mini quest to the tune of episodes from the show. and make the whole game centered around the first two seasons.
  • i have an idea nintendo want to sell alot of games remake yellow no one cares about the white and black pokemon. nothing can beat charizard blastoise or venasuar
