Seriously lets be realistic here. It has been close to 2 years that the 3ds has been released, and no Pokemon virtual console games. Pokemon first gen is what basically defined the original gameboy. I bet if you ask anyone who had the original gameboy they would have had a pokemon game. Is Nintendo waiting for something, or are they worried about the connectivity issues required to "catch them all". A solution would be not to release Pokemon red and blue and just yellow version. preferably 3d classic. Anybody agree?

That would be great to do, but I'm sure they would have done it by now if it was so obviously great, right? Connectivity is a point, and so is price (It should be higher than Pokedex Pro, which is $15), and possibly data size, but I'm not sure that affects anything, just seems a main-series Pokemon game is larger than any other VC game I've seen.
I doubt we'll see any main-series games anytime soon, especially before some spin-off ones that are much more applicable like Pokemon Snap.

I would prefer FireRed and LeafGreen since they are 10000000000000x better

Yea I completely forgot about the GBA games like Emerald and Leaf Green, but GBA Games are only for ambassadors. Realistically a 3d classic of a pokemon game could get away with $10 to $20

Not this again. No, it probably won't happen until multiplayer is added to 3DS GB VC games, as whether you like it or not, removing the multiplayer features would be a HUGE mistake on nintendo's part, as that's why they were made in the first place.

the spin offs though (Puzzle, TCG and pinball) Have a very high chance of appearing, as they don't rely on multiplayer at all.

Welcome @MeowtOfHere!
But I'm with TDK, multiplayer is a key part of the experience.
And I also think we'll see the spinoffs sooner, though I hope we get remastered versions. :3

They took the trouble of getting the original GB Tetris on there, another game that had a big part in the GB's success, so I don't see why not. It's an important title to do a little work on just get the trading to work.

Yeah, but GB tetris did not DEPEND on multiplayer to 100% the game, while as with pokemon, you need a copy of blue or red (opposite of what you have) to get the 100% ranking. Mew doesn't count and there is a glitch to get him anyway so he isn't a problem, but still, it wouldn't be Pokemon without multiplay. Pokemon pinball has a high chance of appearing as it had no multiplayer.

What would happen if Nintendo did release Pokemon without being able to link up? I only had one GB as a kid and no one to trade with. I still enjoyed the game a great deal. As would many others if it came to the VC.

Only the most anal of fans would cause a huge uproar over this. Multiplayer has not been removed, its just like you don't have a link cable.

Edgey, Gumshoe, Godot, Sissel, Larry, then Mia, Franziska, Maggie, Kay and Lynne.

I'm throwing my money at the screen but nothing happens!

Maybe not in the UK or US, but keep in mind back in Japan, when this game came out, it's main catch was the multiplayer trading, and removing that would actually cause a bigger uproar than you would think. If you just wanted to get the other pokemon, you could buy a cable, but if it was on 3DS VC, you couldn't even do that. So I don't think it would happen, otherwise Pokemon stadium 1 and 2 would be out by now.

WTF????!!! Just recode the coding to play on a handheld with different contols, add a 3d code and wireless battle/trading code and voila!! even if there are some gliches release an update data. The main point is: WE WANT IT NOW NINTENDO,MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!!

The thing is, it's a VIRTUAL CONSOLE game. They aren't going to release it with changes unless it's to fix the multiplay. And also, keep in mind that Nintendo didn't put up pokemon stadium on Wii VC for the same reason, so that may mean we won't ever get the main games. No big loss, honestly, since the newer games are way better and the spinoffs are likely to be on VC.

Because why re-release the old ones, with the old bugs and different Pokemon stat and battle system when you can rerelease them in the newer engines, compatible with the newer games?

Not only will they ensure full compatibility, but they'll sell to the people who played the original games (Blue, red, Gold, Silver etc) and the newer generation who weren't around until Gen3 onwards?

Seems to me that it's just good business not to. You're narrowing your userbase.

They already did that. It's called FireRed and LeafGreen.

I've never been a fan of Pokemon, but if NIntendo releases it on the Virtual Console, they should add actual connectivity, and not overcharge (all other GB games cost $4) like they do with anything Pokemon besides the actual main series now.

This is a signature.
Link goes here now.
Screw you.
