Iwata: 3D viewing to be “one of the attractions” in the new Pokemon 3DS game
64 CommentsNintendo is working on a Pokemon game for the Nintendo 3DS, although we’re not sure if it’s a spin-off, like Pokemon Snap, or a “real” Pokemon game like Black or White. But Satoru Iwata has re-confirmed that the game is definitely in the works and sort of suggests the former to be the case:
> “Naturally, we expect 3D viewing to become one of the attractions when the new Pokémon title is released on Nintendo 3DS, but a number of other attractions, which do not depend upon the 3D aspect, shall also be realised. I have no hesitation about the prospect that a Pokémon-franchise title will be released for Nintendo 3DS.”
Specifically pointing out that it’s a “Pokemon-franchise title” makes it feel like he’s saying “this is in the Pokemon universe, but you ain’t going to be catchin’ em all.” I’m also curious to see what will make 3D viewing in this game so attractive. In my own experience the 3D effects are mostly an enhancer to the aesthetics, but it sounds like they will be deeply integrated with how this Pokemon game actually works.
Pokemon Snap 3D? =)
Please, Nintendo, MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!!
Exactly! That’s what I want :D
YES!
Or a pokemon snap 2 with new adventures and pokemons =D
I’ve had dreams about that game. Very good ones indeed.
Even playing it now on the VC, Pokemon Snap is an awesome game that needs a sequel, and the 3DS is a perfect fit. Think of it: you can move it around like in Steel Drive, just as if you were holding the camera! And I can see how 3D would play a very large part in a game like this…
all i want is a pokemon mmorpg. it can use the streetpass feat. along with the pedometer and coin feat. SOOO MUCH can be implemented in the first mmorpg from nintendo
This just might be the second coming of the popularity of the legend Pokemon
A full pokemon game with pokemon from red to black, which include all 5 region (kanto, jotho, hoenn, sinnoh and black and white region), with pokemon revolution-like 3D battle scene, and occupy the entire 8GB of a 3DS cartridge?! I can only dream…
that’s what i want, that would be the best pokemon game ever but we will probably only get pokemon gray or a remake in 3D
That’s my dream! :D
Sorry man, never going to happen. It’s just not economically viable. Plus, it sets a pretty bad precedent in what’s expected from the new Pokemon games.
^That would be pretty awesome!
However, the timeline in the games shows that kanto and hoenn take place 3 years before johto, so it would have to be an entirely new storyline with the magnet train, a boat to get to hoenn, an airplane to get to orre, fiore, almia, and unova. This could be interesting. :D
Pokemon Games Are Really Success B-)
I have every pokemon game, they never get boring, I’ve even got pokemon black
what about cows?
so why did u guys ban me?
Not exactly sure. I’ll ask Baroque.
thanks David :)
Pleaassee let it be an augmented reallity pokemon card game with 3d monster battles you catch ingame and then can see on the AR card or something like that!!
thats called yugioh lol. atleast… it would feel too much like yugioh. i would hope that the creators of the game would be more original than that
If pokemon games don’t have anymore sprites. I’m done with the franchise
ikr Black and white looks terrible with those 2d people walking in a 3d environment. They’re all pixelated and crappy looking. It would have been interesting if they made it look like paper mario, but in a 3d environment, but they used the SAME DAMN SPRITES!
Pokémon B/W own already 5M total sales of them in japan alone. I plan on fully 9001% supporting them tell death do us part. I’m getting both B/W, and a Nintendo 3DS + maybe 4 3DS games in march lol.
Wait … Gamefreak is working on a pokemon game for the 3ds. Or nintendo is working on a pokemon game (for the 3ds) it would really be awesome if nintendo made a pokemon game. Smart move too since pokemon sells very well
A ruby and sapphire remake with 3d graphics like coliseum and xd had? I can only dream
Im worried theyll give us something stupid like pokemon ranger or snap(both were fun but not what were looking for). I hope we get a 3D like battle revolution thats a complete online world were you can catch all the pokemon! alright.
Well we must remembre that the Pokemom Comlany was one of the first to obtain the 3DS devkit, so this game must be in an advanced status.
I want to it to be Pokemon Gray or a remake of pokemon emerald. I sincerely don’t want a spin-off
i concur.
Pokemon Snap 3D would be neat. But I kinda want a Pokemon Stadium 3D… >> << >>
I just KNOW tgis will be Pokemon Snap 2! It has to be! It all adds up. The 3DS has the functionality to be moved around like a camera. The new series od Pokemon anime has a character called Shooti who’s sole purpose is running around taking pictures of Pokemon, not unlike Todd in the first Pokemon Snap.. And I think 3D depth would play a significant role in such a game. How awesome would it be to have every Pokemon, 1st-5th gen in the game!! I will be quite disappointed if we don’t end up seeing Snap on 3DS. Its the perfect time Nintendo! Please!!!!
Pokemon Typing 3D is the worst thing I could think of them making.
Though I don’t know why anyone ever would.
I’d like it if they did maybe a Pokemon Stadium but with an adventure section? But for all we know it could be something completely new.
If they integrate Augmented Reality into this game and I can battle pokemon on my dining table, I’m gonna sob like a little girl.
out of sheer joy, I presume?
I think it
s obvious were getting pokemon snap 3D.Which I would like! Just imagine it. It would be awesome. Spin-off or not this game is gonna be great!
Pokemon Snap 3D? I can’t get excited for that for some reason. I hope it’s more of a classic game. And what’s this about “3D viewing”? Could it mean… 3D cutscenes… with voice acting?! O_O
Has anyone considered the possibility of a 3D Pokemon Snap that implements Augmented Reality? :O
way to beat me to it (;
..well kinda. Id rather have a colloseum type AR battle feild.. thatd be cool.
“but a number of other attractions, which do not depend upon the 3D aspect, shall also be realised.” Please be AR, please be AR. Id be so happy :P
Why not just have a Pokemon Gray and a POkemon SNap?
hopefuly it is an actual pokemon game were you go around catch pokemon,train them and fighting gym leaders (excluding pokemon colluseum or xd gale of darkness) actually pokemon xd gale of darkness would be an awsome game for the 3ds but hopefully it’s not just here’s your pokemon now go fight with just these pokemon like pokemon battle revolution which isn’t really a good pokemon game
hi there what about pokemon walk that pokemon game that uses play coins or game coins too unlock levels pokemon unlockables or power ups with nintendo play coins or game coins i want too use the nintendo money that nintendo 3ds prints out in 3d
or use game coins for the game corner.
Ha. This will most likely be the best looking Pokemon game to date, so it’ll be funny if it ends up a spin-off.
I wouldn’t object to Pokemon Snap 2… ;)
I hate spin offs games
Pokemon Snap with AR
OmG o.O sO epIC canT wAiT =]
im feeling maybe a ruby/sapphire remake…or pokemon grey…well get these if were lucky :)
i wouldnt buy pokemon snap 3d…
Oh wow! More info!!!
AR Pokemon Cards, lol!
um guys havent you ever thought about a pokemon mystery dungeon
yeah lets go !
But he also says “new” so, doesn’t that mean a different game? I want a brand new game not a remake.
Pokemon Stadium 3?
-All 649 Pokes
-Augmented Reality
-3D Visuals
-Gym Leader Castle for Hoenn, Sinnoh, Unova
-Online Play
Works for me! kinda.. Stadium didnt really have any storyline at all.
The pokemon is fighting in our world via 3DS 3D camera=]
I hope it ends up being another mystery dungon game those were alwase my favorite and seeing as the japaness wii version won’t come here it may just be that one
all i want is a pokemon mmorpg. it can use the streetpass feat. along with the pedometer and coin feat. SOOO MUCH can be implemented in the first mmorpg from nintendo and pokemon and on the 3DS would be sick!
Where did you read that? Pokemon black/white was released in September, Im pretty sure that means they started it in like January or around that point. So I dont really see how it could have been a 3ds game being that the games in september for the 3ds were all demos..
they should do a pokemon stadium with better graphics with a pokemon snap game stadium
Maybe a Battle Revolution with AR?
A remake of RSE would be cool… Dunno what they would name it though.
