Pokemon Sunday Reveals First Footage of HeartGold and SoulSilver
May 11, 2009 | 11:52 AM PST
One week ago, the Japanese television program Pokemon Sunday announced that there would be a big reveal on this week's show. And in the interim, we discovered that Nintendo is indeed bringing remakes of Gold and Silver, titled HeartGold and SoulSilver, to the Nintendo DS.
As a result, that took a little bit of the punch out of Pokemon Sunday's big surprise. Nonetheless, they managed to show off the first actual footage of the game:
...yeah. The player basically walks around within a small confined square, and they treat it like the greatest thing ever. At least it gives us a peek at the new graphics, but little more than that.
If you'd like to see the full reveal segment (the above is an excerpt with the entirety of the actual game footage), including funny Japanese fall-down humor and other craziness, check out the following video.
I'll admit, if you're a Pokemon fan and can understand Japanese, the show is probably great; it looks like it would be a lot of fun, for kids at least.
