"Trashes the storyline"?Sequels on follow up consoles? IT'S INSANE AND COULD NEVER WORK.
Just as crazy as Fire emblem: Radiant Dawn and Path of Radiance being on seperate consoles. Or Golden sun 1/2 and Dark dawn. Or Gold/silver (GB with GBC enhancements) and Crystal (GBC only). Or Metroid prime 3 being a wii only game.
Fact is, they could have made a significantly better game by making it for the 3DS. The original Black and white had no buisness being original DS games in the first place, there is just no excuse for the follow ups to be DS games this far into the 3DS lifetime.
because i can name at least 10 other games in each handheld that i've gotten and enjoyed, the 3ds still doesn't have a single one, only 2 and they're in development, besides, this would be the "third" game of the series.
as for your other examples, guess what all of the consoles you mentioned had? that's right, backwards compatibility, i could play my red and blue on my GBC, and GBA, i could play my ruby and emerald on my DS (annoyed they didn't allow for playing of GBC games), same with pearl and platinum, and now black and it's "third game"
and unlike golden sun, i didn't have to wait SEVEN YEARS for this sequel. (and i'm still annoyed at no backwards compatibility to my lost age)
if the next pokemon is on the 3DS, sure, i don't have any complaints, but if black/white started on the DS, they damn better end on the DS, don't forget the DS is the first one to have freaking 4 different versions, that's too much imo.
