Celebrating the 10th anniversary of Pokemon Gold and Silver in Japan this fall, Nintendo plans to issue two enhanced remakes. English translation gives us the titles Pokemon HeartGold and SoulSilver. No word on these coming to other regions, but would you be interested in them if they did?

ZOMG YES! I'm so happy!
Give credit where credit is due, guys!
(Me. Unless you knew already.)
Yea!!
hands down the best pokemon title
I wish I still had my GBC…
I still remember my party…
the fire guy you start with
sodowoodo
snorlax
red gyarados
lugia
and the other legendary bird from gold
all caught personally by me. no trades or cheats… I was so pissed when I found out the memory had been deleted
This is my fav pokemon series. I still have my GBC but due to the clock issue it erased and won't save, so there is really no point in replaying.
But now I CAN!! YESSSSSSS
Definitely buying this the day it comes out.
Uhhhh, you're thinking of Ho-oh droop. 😉 But yeah! We had to have some clue that Nintendo was going to possibly re-make these 2 Pokemon gems seeing as how what they did when they remade Fire Red & Leaf Green from Red & Blue. Same now for Heart Gold & Soul Silver from Gold & Silver. Especially if you also add the facts that Pokemon Fire Red & Pokemon Leaf Green versions BOTH ran off the same engine as what was used for Ruby, Sapphire & Emerald. Now the same engine from Diamond, Pearl & Platinum are being used to run BOTH Pokemon Heart Gold & Pokemon Soul Silver versions. Can't say I wasn't waiting for these 2 to re-emerge from their slumbering glory days back on the GBC, but this was a VERY WISE move on BOTH Game Freak & Nintendo's parts. Great job guys! I'll see you in Johto again soon! 😉
Heck yes!!! I've been hoping for a remake of GS for years! By far the best pokemon game from the entire series
I would pick one up.
I am a VERY happy Second Gen-fan Pokemon nerd.
I can't wait to revisit the ole Johto region, seeing all the gym leaders, legendary Pokemon, favorite towns, rival, and the infamous Team Rocket rise once again.
Another note, the screen shots also showed the main character walking with a Chikarita starter following him! And that's a feature that's been special to Yellow forever.
Oh, nostalgia.
Count me in! I've been waiting YEARS for this – they're by-far the best in the series and I'll be first in line at my Toys R' Us the day it's released here (because you know it will be, lol). The G/S/C generation brought a lot of firsts to the table that continue to make the games of today so great. There have been a few features, however, that have not been carried on and remain unique to these games (going back to Kanto), so these are probably going to be the best games of this generation. There's also been live footage of the characters moving around – your starter follows you again like Pikachu did in Pokemon Yellow. 😀

One word:
Yes.
Just being a new world (Johto) then being able to go back to Kanto in G/S was amazing.
I thought I was the only person who liked that generation the best 🙂 I have some SERIOUSLY fond memories of playing Gold on my original GBA. I'd buy a remake in a heartbeat.
I hope they make plenty of opportunities to nab pokemon from that generation that are sorta hard to come by, namely Celebi, Lugia and Ho-oh. And those damn dogs. And the starters. That'd be nice of them.
Without a doubt, Soul Silver preorder for me, it's silver I played all those years ago, I spent such a long time looking for the 3 dogs, Entai, Raiku and Suicune. Not even catching mewtwo after a 45 minute long battle (Didn't wanna use my masterball) can compare to catching them 3. Excellent excellent games!
Also, going back to Kanto I remember being so suprised… I never, in a million years thought they'd take me back to the red/blue land… This was back when we'd only just gotten the internet, well we had dial up but only for dads work, but us kids weren't allowed to use it, so, I couldn't look around the web for stuff…
Those were the days, when the chances of spoilers were almost non-existant, when everything in a game was new until you'd finished it.
With that Kanto thing, since then I've almost been dissapointed.. When I played Ruby, when I got towards the end of it I was begging for the game to take me back to Johto, sadly it never did.. Atleast with Fire Red and Leaf Green they take you to a new place, with all the numbered Isles – that was pretty fun. Fingers crossed for an enhanced Kanto in these 2 games, contests and all!
" New " remakes.
