Pokemon Red, Blue & Yellow (3DS Virtual Console)

Recommended Posts

They should come with the Dodrio mode from Pokemon Stadium. :D

 

That'd be sweet if they somehow got Stadium VC support.

Think they may hold off for NX for Stadium. It'd be easier due to shared OS etc. between handheld and console and the cloud save system they showed at the investor meeting, so they can just grab the save (with a game selection option at start) to emulate the Transfer Pak.

 

Doing it Wii U/3DS requires a lot of coding and maybe some additional software downloaded.

Now this is certainly something we can agree on ;)

 

Also, is it this week that Masuda is due on the ol' Sunday Pokemon Special or whatever they call it these days?

Didn't see this. Masuda was on Pokénchi to discuss music.

Family eh? What are they for except to help you catch all the Pokémon? ;)

 

It was always the same for me and my youngest brother, I'd have Blue so he'd have Red, I bought Gold on import and he went for Silver... we still do the same thing to this day although neither of us get to play the games as much as we'd like but we still buy them. :)

 

Oh and hey there Hazel, welcome to the N-Europe forums! :D I remember you from 24 hours of Kirby - all three of you were fantastic - and as UFA from Monster Hunter, which reminds me I really need to get back into playing that soon.

 

In any case I hope you enjoy your stay here as I'm sure you'll fit in well on N-Europe. : peace:

XD It's so true, What other job is there when you're the younger sibling?

 

It's always been the same with me and D-cubed He would go for the Red version of the game, whilst I would get the blue. The only cast that was different was Pokemon X and Y. I can't remember why exactly but he was happy betting Xerny.

 

8'D Wow you remember me from that stream? I gotta say i'm surprised! That was such a fun stream! XD Glad we weren't boring at all! I made an account here soon after the stream... but something happened and it's only now that I could get on here! Well... with the help of my brother that is!

 

8D Well I'd be up for a game at some point! Well if i'm not working...Or drawing! XD It would be lovely to play again!

 

^_^ Thank you ever so much! I have to say I was worried about posting, but then my brother managed to convince me to post! XD

I went for Pokémon X as well while my brother bought Pokémon Y but at least they are still the same games - mostly - whichever version you buy, I think it's good to go for different versions if you live in the same household as it's fun to play along and compare progress in addition to the trading/battling as well; though this time with the VC re-releases of R/B/Y trading with my younger brother might be a bit difficult as he has recently moved out but... I suppose it just means that we can both catch the version exclusive Pokémon still and just trade when he comes back home to visit. :)

 

Yes, I do indeed remember you from the stream, it was a lot of fun for me too watching you all play through all those Kirby games! :D Of course I did try to play along while Kirby 64 was being played but I had no chance in keeping up as it my first proper play of the game but it was still a lot of fun and it was nice that you all managed to raise a bit for charity as well. I still can't believe its been four months since Satoru Iwata's untimely passing though. :(

 

I do think he'd have been glad to see the original Pokémon games released on the VC though, here's hoping we get Gold, Silver and Crystal as well to honour his programming skills. : peace:

 

Well I'm glad that you got your account sorted - with Dcubed's help - as I'm sure you'll find N-Europe forums to be an excellent place, I'd love to play MH4U again at some point with you all, I remember our games to be really fun and I've been meaning to get back into it now that all the DLC is out, a link to the thread for the game is below...

 

http://www.n-europe.com/forum/showthread.php?t=56961&page=19

 

It would be fun for the four of us to go hunting again one day, so give a shout in the thread when you're all together and want to hunt, I'm mostly off work for a few days so can join most evenings if I'm not already playing another game...

 

(with so many games to play these days I don't know where I'll find the time to play through the original Pokémon games again, but I'm sure I will somehow)

 

You're most welcome, there's no need to be worried as I'm sure you'll find the forum to be a welcoming place. :smile: We all have our disagreements now and then in some of the threads but then what forum doesn't? :heh: Plus things have been a lot better recently. (We also have a creative board with lots of threads if you ever feel like sharing any drawings)

 

Anyway I think that's everything... :heh: I'm glad Dcubed convinced you to post and I hope that you'll enjoy your time here.

^_^ Yeah they're the same game for the most part at least! XD That's true! In the end it's just convenient to have both games int the same house...That and it's handy for Glen since one of us will have the game he's missing! It's always fun to have someone to play with and compare. When ORAS came out Glen and I played through it with a team of Pokemon we wouldn't normally use. It was actually really fun. I had no idea what I was going to be stuck with, and since we both took on the challenge it gave the game a different feel. Even though he's recently moved out there's still wifi too! Although having that to look forward to on visits from your little brother would be nice too! Not forgetting that little hit of nostalgia trading locally.

 

8D i'm so glad that you had fun on the stream! We were about 4 hours late starting and we didn't plan anything till that morning, XD But it seemed to go well! AH! YES! I remember that you were playing along with us! XD Glen was just playing too fast ( ironically on the slowest Kirby game. ) But i'm just glad that it was fun! 8D I'm honestly still shocked how much money was raised in the end! Especially when he didn't plan the event till that morning. It's honestly shocking that it's been 4 months already. ;__; Honestly it's still hard to take in.

 

Honestly I think that he would just be happy to see people playing his games. I think he would also enjoy seeing the newer generation of gamer's playing these classics too! I sure do hope that Gold, Silver and Crystal do get released! <3 that would be amazing!

 

XD Thank you! I feel a little silly for being so worried over nothing now! I'll have to try and convince Glen to get back onto monster hunter again! Not only the DLC but there's still a lot of quests left to do! AH! Thank you ever so much! > W <

 

It would be great getting the group back together and hunting again! I normally work early mornings so evenings are usually free. Though my work shifts aren't exactly set...That and they like to change the rota without warning T_T.

 

^^; Oh gosh...That feeling of too many games, not enough time! I've honestly lost track of all the games I have on the go... There are at least 3-4 RPG's alone. You'll find a way to play all them games!

 

^_^ Honestly I already have! Heck you've given me an amazingly warm welcome alone! XD So thank you for that! There's no such thing as perfect! AH! I was actually looking to share some art but apparently you need to make 15 posts before you can link to a URL ( Heck I couldn't even quote it now! ) XD So alas I have to play the waiting game!

 

XD Thank you ever so much, I shall make sure to get in the way and make a huge mess for my brother :P

I thought you preferred Blastoise to Charizard anyway though? Oh wait, these are digital games, so box art doesn't matter anymore.

Oh well, we'll just do what every family did before you could breed starters, use each others games and cheat our way to getting all three starters before even getting one badge! (Except for that one guy who gets Yellow, who won't really be helping at all. Due to there being Pokemon in that game that can't be caught without trading with Red and Blue.)

 

Also, it's about damn time your account got in! I need help in my impossible quest of convincing @Serebii that the PMD series is actually quite good.

LOL! Well it's true I actually do prefer Blastoise to Charizard! Heck I'm not gonna lie... I even prefer Mega Blastoise then and mega Charizard! That goatee is just too amazing! XD It's too true...every pair of siblings/friends did that to get all the starters. Are you going to be the one to get Yellow? Or do you think that we're all gonna fall into temptation and buy it?

 

D8 Hey! some funky stuff happened! It's not just me! It's sorted now though and now everyone knows that my gender is mareep! * ^ * PMD is AMAZING...not just "quite good"!

Well, I played through Blue quite recently, so no way I'm getting that.

I reckon @Dcubed's gonna get both Yellow and Red. Because he's mad.

I'd probably get just Yellow, because I don't have as much disposable income as I'd like to have.

 

And yes, it is amazing! Thanks! I don't know what I was saying.

Do we think this will somehow be compatible with Pokémon Bank?

No. The structure for the Pokémon data is wildly different to how it is now. In Generation 3 there was a huge overhaul to the mechanics so the Pokémon data is completely incompatible

What if they made an app that transferred them to Pokemon Bank and just randomised the IVs, natures and reset the EVs, but kept the nicknames, moves and items (there aren't any in G/S/C that are inaccessible in Gen 6 are there? Mail? - They could always just disallow Pokemon that are carrying mail ;) )

 

Or they could just release an update for Poke Transporter and just integrate said function into that...

 

Either way I reckon that it should be possible if they wanted to, even if it isn't a perfect 1-1 copy (I'm sure most people who are transferring won't care much about EVs/IVs anyway - I mean, those Pokemon all generally would suck in competitive play anyway :p ) Would be pretty awesome to finally be able to move those Pokemon from the old school GB/GBC games over!

It's going to sound like I'm moaning just for the sake of moaning but here goes...

 

I'm guessing I wasn't the only person who had Red & Blue along with two Game Boys when they were originally released. Now, because there's no proper account system for Nintendo, even though I have more than one 3DS I can't transfer between the two games if I buy them both digitally. I know this would be applicable to every 3DS Pokemon game that has been released digitally but they all have GTS access which these won't.

Japan is getting some pretty sweet bundles for the game release.

Each bundle includes a code for game, a code for Mew ( apparently it's for both the VC game and ORAS ), Pokemon stickers, a unique 2DS theme and the region map.

 

I hope we get something similar over here!

Wow! That's cool!

 

Nice to see that they're giving out Mew! (I wonder how it actually works ingame...)

 

Edit: Oh never mind...

 

Just to clarify, there's no code for Mew. That piece of paper is just a Trade Ticket that you can use at certain stores during a certain time period to trade for Mew. As in, you have to physically go to the location, meet a real human being in person, give them a real ticket printed on a real piece of paper, and trade with them in real life using local wireless.

 

There is no code. There is no magic way to get Mew. It's just trading for it like it's the 90's guys.

I want the themes, but can't justify £222 just for four themes that probably won't carry over to the NX :(

Pretty hyped for this, got my nostalgia glasses ready for Pokemon Yellow! As for Mew, assuming they don't mess to much with the coding, hopefully the Mew glitch will still work.....As well as MissingNo. Ah, fun times ahead.

Are those 2DS's going to be slightly higher spec like the New 3DS? The coloured buttons makes me wonder about it, but I guess there isn't much reason for them to do it.

Na, they're just standard 2DSs. Buttons are that colour because they also match the colours of the games :)
