So it would have to be on Wii or DSi or whatever comes after Wii or DSi, right? Of course right. Nintendo isn’t going to invest in it if it isn’t on their hardware.

I’d still play it. I mean really, how advanced would it need to be if it was the same old sprite based RPG with a larger population? All them TMs (RMs?) wouldn’t seem as necessary. I’d prefer you just go wherever you want, and if your not at a high enough level for the gym fights, they just tell you say and send you away. No story necessary, though background story (history, myths, etc) are appreciated.
