I found this on Bulbapedia and I can't help but have mixed feeling about this.
I was very excited about Generation II remakes but I really don't approve of remaking Ruby and Sapphire. I mean, the original GBA games can still have their pokemon transferred if some die hard fans (myself included) kept a DS or DS lite, and the Generation III ledendaries are available in HGSS as well. Aside from marketing reasons I really don't see why Gamefreak would remake Ruby and Sapphire. Archie and Maxie aren't such great villains compared to Giovanni and N IMO.
Now here's where I begin to think an RS remake could be a good thing. Obviously there's a ton that those games were missing compared to the original Gold and Silver like a Day/Night system and they could adapt a seasons system. Seeing Hoenn in 3D would be nice. They could also grant us access to some Dream World areas with Gen V Pokemon and their hidden abilities. Also, VS sprites for Hoenn Gym Leaders and Elite 4. Plus who knows what other fun surprises Gamefreak will add to Hoenn like they did with Johto/Kanto.
Like I said before, I have mixed feelings about the news. Anyone else care to share their thoughts?

Then 3-5 years from now we'll be discussing Diamond and Pearl remakes. :tongue:
Thanks! I've received your sentiments. Ruby and Sapphire are very important games to me. I want to make something good. Thanks!!
