Why Pokémon Legends Arceus & Brilliant Diamond Got Made
Well, that Pokemon Presents certainly was interesting! Now we're learned that not only are the Sinnoh Pokemon games - Diamond and Pearl - being remade; they're kind of being remade TWICE. Shining Pearl and Brilliant Diamond are being developed by ICLA LTD, while Game Freak are tackling an open world title named Legends: Arceus which gives off some strong wannabe Breath of the Wild vibes.
Will any of these games be enough to placate Pokemon fans? It's hard to say. The Diamond and Pearl remakes have been on many a fan's wishlist for several years now, so that alone might have been enough to please at least a portion of the fan community, but a trip to fuedal Sinnoh to see a world before PC storage boxes? That's pretty neat.
Here's hoping the games turn out well, although in this house, we're mostly looking forward to New Pokemon Snap at the moment. There aren't enough non-violent Pokemon games, in my opinion. Our daughter is incredibly excited about getting to take photos of all her favourite Pokemon.
Anyway, lots of love,
