Straight out of "too good to be true" pile obviously. Though it would make some sense as to why they haven't put any of these on NSO yet.

 

[Werewolf Jones]

I'm buying both for the gen 3 games. Gen 1/Gen 2 are really bad games that people defend because of nostalgia.

 

[LordCBH]

I’ll believe it when I see it. Would buy both.

 

[tkscz]

Yellow Crystal and Emerald are the best versions of each generation so I'm glad we're getting them but would rather have them as a pack as well. Emerald especially since it went above and beyond.

nah, I busted out my old blue cart a few years ago and did a quick run.
Gen1/2 has better story and flow than the most 2 recent mainline Pokemon games. Especially Sword and Shield which was garbage.

 

[Magic Carpet]

Need a poll option for me. Never buying nother Pokemon game.

Modern Pokemon games and old Pokemon games are bad for different reasons. Only GBA to DS are good.

 

[Saber]

Sounds like a stupid idea imo. They are not the type to sell their games like this.
But who knows, nowadays Pokemon Company is becoming more and more disgusting with their practices. And since SV let a sour taste in their fans mouth they are out to give something while cooking their new games.

 

[Camreezie]

Those titles are dog shit, memories and reminscence

 

[DavJay]

Knowing Nintendo each will cost $40 PER game. $120 for each collection

 

[Fake]

Why even separate the versions lmao.

 

[tomato shrub]

edit: not sure I understand the rumour lol, but it's 4chan so whatever prob fake

 

[Hookshot]

Seems unlikely, having to buy them on top of the NSO subscription seems odd and if those games were sold would they'd get more money doing it separately.

 

[blacktout]

Is there any reason at all to believe this rumor over any of the hundreds (thousands ?) of other bullshit video game rumors that have been posted to 4chan over the years?

Extremely suspect that they would have access to only one segment of the Pokemon Presents, but also the other headlines. The only reason this would happen is if they worked for The Pokemon Company on the trailer and Nintendo is intentionally compartmentalizing information to prevent leaks and make them easier to track, in which case this dude is one of the dumbest (and most fired) leakers of all time.

the DS games are the only ones that aged well and even then I would recommend romhacks for them

 

[Heart_Attack]

It is too good to be true.

 

[Puscifer]

Gimme a Final Fantasy pixel remaster style and I'm in Day fucking 1.

 

[TintoConCasera]

Hey I posted that! Sorry, it was meant as a joke.

 

[Codes 208]

Sounds like a very strange collection. I don’t believe it at all.

 

[Loomy]

The distribution of games between collections is a pretty big fuck you as well lol

 

[Robb]

Well, in that case, maybe it is true.

 

[Hookshot]

There is a Pokémon presents on the 27th so we don’t have to wait long to see if this is a lie or not. Also somehow I glossed over the fact that these “bundles” are apparently available as separate games which makes me wonder why bundle them at all?

 

[Spukc]

Those titles are dog shit, memories and reminscence

Yes and also fake bullshit

 

[Davevil]

 

[Begleiter]

It's the collection names that have me doubting. Very tin-eared.

 

[Banjo64]

No chance of this being true but I’d spend £20 a pop on Silver and Emerald and would love it if they included save states and the option to speed up gameplay.

 

[Hudo]

Nah. That doesn't align with Game Freak's greed. Too much effort and they will never sell multiple games for the price of one.

 

[Mownoc]

Can't get too excited if they've not done anything to them other than perhaps some light online features. You can play these games on everything under the sun already.

 

[JokerMM]

"4chan"
Bro come on

 

[Hudo]

"4chan"
Bro come on

I mean, 4chan is as reliable as most "insiders".

 

[Punished Miku]

Wouldn't be a bad launch title. Easy to do I'm sure and would pick up a few nerds on the fence.

 

[rabbity-thing]

I get what you're implying, but the very reason these old games have climbed in price on the secondary market is specifically because Nintendo has NOT been milking them. They've just left money on the table with OG Pokemon games.

 

[Ribi]

Sounds like Nintendo. Meanwhile I played all of em on an emulator on my 2013 Android phone

 

[stn]

I'm calling truth on this one.

 

[V1LÆM]

they are lumping gold with red?

boooo

red and silver are the best. i guess i'll buy both

except a switch.

 

[Mownoc]

except a switch.

An unhacked switch.

 

[GateofD]

is there a hacked one yet where it just connects all the region maps together in one game and you take trains or planes to each one and get every badge in existence. Pokemon World or something

 

[WhiteWaterM00se]

Hey I posted that! Sorry, it was meant as a joke.

You serious? I didn’t know GAF went to 4chan.

 

[WhiteWaterM00se]

It would not release a week before xenoblade.

 

[WhiteWaterM00se]

Not for nothing…Or maybe nothing. There is another rumor out there about Nintendo releasing their first HD2D first party game later this year.

Where did you hear this? I desperately want it to be true, regardless of the IP.

 

[WhiteWaterM00se]

There is a private forum of devs with chatter. The stuff is not always right. More like a site used for “wine tasting” of ideas. It is old school.

I know that “Brazil guy” “insider / leaker” said on famiboards or X there was one more “somewhat niche” title for Switch. Well, if the rumor is true, and Brazil know this same rumor. He wasn’t lying.
He was saying “somewhat niche” tongue-in-cheek.

If this rumor is true, then it would also explain why there is no Feb Direct. If this rumor is true, it will go down as one of the Switch 1 and Switch 2’s biggest games, imo. But that may be nostalgia talking. Not sure how the kids of today will view it.

Just wait a little longer and let’s see. If the rumor is true, you will see it “mid” March.

Edit: Something similar i guess is posted on 4chan. It is not the same, exactly. But similar. I was told this, i don’t use 4chan, and haven’t seen it.

 

[WhiteWaterM00se]

Sorry for so many post in a row.

I do think either a Pokemon collection or the HD2d rumored Mario NES collection would be quite neat. It would also sell a lot, imo. Again, that could be nostalgia talking though.

The Mario collection specifically would be smart as a closing Switch 1 game, imo. Especially if there is no 3d Mario this year for Switch 2, (which has always been my estimation). The 3d Mario will launch in 2026 at some point to coincide with the movie. ***Just the train of thought, i have on it***
