Japanese TV show Pokemon Sunday, has a major announcement for May 10th, and signs do point to the long-awaited Gold & Silver Remakes on DS.

The official site for the show promises it to be 'a worldwide first announcement and a worldwide first big scoop'. One major clue the show's producers may have provided is in the colour of the Confetti-filled Disco globes on the show:

Personally, I thought Gold & Silver was Pokemon's low point. Still, it'll be nice to what changes they'll make.

Not sure I want a remake of those games.:/

Imo, pokemon was ruined after the first originals as there were too many pokemon but they were all the same with different names, I miss the charizards and dragonites, now everyone has that weird fire chimp instead =(, I still love you dragonite. Dragonite + hyperbeam = one of the most powerful moves ever! (he had one of the higest special attacks)

I'd love a Gold and Silver remake. I played through the majority of Gold before my save file got deleted. I've been wanting to play through it again, but I really don't feel like carrying my crapped-up GBA around.

I never played these games. They were recently recommended to me, but I backed out of purchasing them because I don't know anybody that still plays them. Online with this makes the prospect more appealing, added to the fact I can only assume both games will come on one card.

I have no idea, that's anyone guess right now, until May 10th.

Nintendo needs to make it required that you be online 100% of the time while playing, so people can't hack Pokemon anymore.  They also need to put-in a ladder system and anonymous match making for high level meta-game battling.  

But... they won't.  Nintendo doesn't understand online and I guess they don't care that people can hack any Pokemon they want, even rare event ones, and even put abilities on them that shouldn't be allowed. 

It's really lame having to trade friend codes with random hackers in forums just to get your battle on against hacked Pokemon.  I'm about done with Pokemon until Nintendo makes it a PC MMO with zero hacks.

You will be waiting in vain for that to happen Luke, it's just never going to happen. Nintendo make family orientated games that people can enjoy easily. The PC platform does not fit into that ideal of theirs, despite most people owning a PC in the home, and kids being more at ease with it these days.

I wanted Animal Crossing on Wii to be a MMO : (

"Personally, I thought Gold & Silver was Pokemon's low point. Still, it'll be nice to what changes they'll make."

Let my childhood rest Nintendo. Don't remake it.

G/S/C was the best gen. This would be awesome.

I think they'll just put Crystal on it, not Gold/Silver.

Whaddya think they'll call it?

If it is a proper remake, then bring them home baby.  Sign me up :-)

I doubt they'll do that. They'll release two games like they always do. They did that with the GBA remakes of Red and blue. They released them as Leaf Green and Fire Red.As for what they'll call these, perhaps "Shiny Gold" and "Sparkling Silver"? OK, those both suck. I dunno."

Maybe, but I'll be very sad if they don't have the extra Crystal content."

Sold! Crystal is my favourite pokemon game. They added so much cool and new stuff.
Two worlds, 16 badges. So awesome.

Thank Science! Gold & Silver are the best pokemon games ever made- the high point. They introduced a boatload of new pokemon, but without making them horribly stupid (I'm looking at you, SPOINK!) Ho-Oh and Lugia were awesome legendary pokemon. I hope they include all of Kanto & Johto in the D&P graphics...

If this is the truth, I will be the happiest person in the world. This will be the first remake of one of my favorite games. I'll have a tough time not buying both versions

I'd rather have a remake of red, blue and green to be honest.

"I'd rather have a remake of red, blue and green to be honest."

Hurray!
Hope this turns out to be good.

Im not quite sure how DIamond and Pearls online mode worked, but I tested Platinum and whenever a pokemons stats go above a certain level they turn into "bad eggs" during play. That doesnt stop people from simply creating level 100 creatures, but you'll have no problem compteting with them if you also have a level 100 creature. "

They haven't even released Platinum here in the UK so I'll get that before I think about any other Pokemon games.

I'm so lost, I don't even know what console they were released on :S

If anyone can figure-out what this combination can do to both of these Pokemon, you'll understand how much bullshit this is.  The only Pokemon in the whole Pokedex that should have Wonder Guard is Shedinja.

I don't see why you would remake a Pokemon game.

Gameboy Color."

But G&S would play on original Gameboy, too."

Nah, I think Crystal was GBC exclusive."

I've been hearing the names 'Dawn Gold' and 'Dusk Silver' being thrown around this here interwebs.

Oh man, this rules. Lugia was awesome.

if this is real... then i think i will hold back the money I was saving for Platinum for this...
2nd generation was the best...

YES! FINALLY! I loved Pokemon Gold and Silver and a modern version would make me ecstatic as long as they don't dilute it with all the modern pokemon.

"Personally, I thought Gold & Silver was Pokemon's low point. Still, it'll be nice to what changes they'll make."

I would prefer a red/blue remake.

Dude yes. These are the best in the series imo. I'm gonna buy it.

Gold and Silver were the best ones!  They tried so many new ideas with the game that they pretty much threw out afterwards.  Day and night?  Check.  A radio with giveaways and special information based on what day and time you listen to it?  Check.  Genders and breeding?  Check.  Your Pokemon's emotional attachment playing a role?  Yep.  Two whole worlds to explore, including ALL OF RED AND BLUE?!  Checkeroonie!

I have drifted away from Pokemon following Ruby/Sapphire, but Gold and Silver were the best games in the series, so I may actually pick this up (or make my brother get it so I don't have to spend cash money). I can just quit after I unlock the National Pokedex so I will never have to see all the crappy new pokemon that came out after those games.
