Default Why do we keep coming back for more?

$40 for the same game every year?

So why the hell do we keep coming back to Pokemon? It's the same game only with more bell and whistles. Your always going to get gym badges, your always going to beat the elite four and there will always be some evil team getting in your way. Hell all they ever do is add even more Pokemon making the whole premise of the original game damn near impossible. There are 649 Pokemon how the hell are we going to be able to "catch them all" any more with out mass amounts of cheating?

Ah let's not forget the brilliant Pokemon designs that gave us this!

that evolves in to THIS!!!!

Oh let's not forget stunning Pokemon names like ugh...Oshawott and erh.. Woobat. (I feel dirty just saying them.)

But why am I so looking forward to Black and white!? What kind of bazaar spell does Nintendo have on us that keeps us spending every damn time. Why do we love it so!? What's the magic?

Well, for one, it's a new Pokemon game. xD

Two, there are many more new features, such as the in-battle effects exclusive to B/W, and the more 3D feel to the overworld.

Also, the Pokemon were designed by America(ns) so they will be much more different from the past 493. I myself actually have more Pokemon I love in this generation than any other, with number two probably Kanto (Gen 1).

If you don't like a certain Pokemon/its evolution line (I don't see the hate about Klink, Klang, and Klinklang), then just don't get it. There's no need for rants about one little aspect of a game you're even looking forward to.

I don't hate or did I say I hated any thing.

If Gamefreak and Nintendo got together and a made a pokemon game for one of the big consoles, and made it multi-player where you can inverse yourself into the story and play with other people live, and have the ability for a bigger world and more in depth realism, it would BLOW UP.
I would garuntee it would be the number one game in the first week of its release.

..But only in meh dreams =(

^This would be WIN.

I keep wondering why they don't have or try a MMRPG either. they can easily make money off a MMO look at places like Maple Story. Maple story must rake in the cash and there a free MMO. I would not mind paying a small fee every month to play. I can already picture customizing trainer with items, having rare items and even user perks. Having a Pokemon MMO would be the holy grail of Pokemon fandom.

They need to start getting out of the 2d era, and into the 3d era..

Why not if I had to choose between playing 40$ for 2D pixel and playing 10$ every month for a full 3D explorable world with real players I choose pay.

You have to understand it's all about the money. They have to justify giving up the profit of the game boy games.

Any way I do agree they need to make up there mind and go fully 3D.

You're not the only one that questions this - many others all over the world do as well. You might not be the one ranting, but others are, who also hate some of the Pokemon. I myself hate them hating those Pokemon.

Bloodrun, epic idea. Just like how I finished Sonic Colors this morning for the DS, then saw the Wii version and thought, why not just release it for the Wii? It has two more exclusive Wisps, is in 3D, is longer, and has more features. A Pokemon game like you suggested would DEFINITELY get instant popularity. The other versions will seem outdated with a game like that existing x3

And I've never really played an MMORPG, unless Runescape is one, and even that I haven't played much. But it sounds interesting.

I like the idea of the MMO because you can trade, battle and talk to real world people. battling NPCs are ok any all but playing with real people would be awesome.

If they did do a 3D game then it should be like this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ox9bDg27irw

Not all 3D games have a subscription fee. Lol Just to name one of the tops, CoD MW2.
