I know all about the planned game, but due to dissagrements with various companies the game was put on delay and may not be made at all now, but it was going to be called The Road to World 2004 and for the Gameboy SP and was going to actually be about all of the pokemon TCG players, you put in your POP Id number and you started with your deck that you had used at the start of said season since Nintendo keeps all the deck sheets it would have all the decks written down, and since all the opponents and tournaments in the game were based all of real people and their results the AI engine would be very good to determine who would be a stroger opponent and thus player's compete in the real pre-releases and collect cards through trading and buying packs in the game and would eventually try to go to the World Championships in 2004 in Orlando and change history, since you know Yamato won then well what do you know he would be the strongest opponent for the tournament. It would have been Nintendo's awesome idea to keep making a new game every year like Yugi-oh does but vasty superior since everything is based off of real events. But as you can imagine making said game at said time would require getting a lot of rights from various sources, and also the English, Japanese and other country's versions of the game would take place in their country but you still end up at Worlds and another exciting factor in the game was travel, you play i FL and in the game you decide to use your game currency to fly to Ohio and compete thus making you play in a real event that you did not actually partipate in real life so players couldn't get bored and at the end of the game, you can use the time machine found at worlds to travel back and play in any of the game's possible tournaments to enjoy different outcomes. Well there you go. That is all I know about that.

This was actually a proposal forwarded, and received warmly, by Stephen VanDeventer (I may have butchered that spelling), a pokemon player/judge and card game designer working out of Florida and North Carolina. From what I understand, it did meet with a degree of licensing difficulty, but Stephen had it pretty well worked out.

If he's at Nationals this year, ask him to demo his Godzilla game. Purty fun....(but deeply flawed...stupid "Mother"...)

Thanks Jake. The godzilla game isn't flawed anymore, back to balance, Mother got a decrease in power and I even made a card just for you to force it out and destroy it lol. :smile:

But yeah the game was designed with all of you in mind and mainly for all of you who could not go to Worlds and be able to have a chance to give it your all. It would have given Nintendo a chance to make a new game every year and give some away at each Worlds and of coarse you could transfere your cards from the previous game to the new one and since this was before the DS it was going to be used with the wireless adapter from fire red and leaf green for trades and battle.

Didn't know that was you, Stephen :p
 
I keep hoping they'd do a new Pokemon TCG game. It'd give me a chance to try out deck and deck stradegies and stuff, since league is only 1 day a week. ;-;
 
The vast majority of pokemon tcg players would buy the game; whether you had actual players with their actual decks, or something similar to the old version.
The hardest part would be programming the AI; but with DS you can play vs other oppents online! You could programe an online tournament into the softwear and keep track of points world wide. Honestly, what is nintendo waiting for?
 
It's not going to happen. If it happens at all it won't be with the format we have now anyways or with any of the formats that are out. I'm sure that if they were to make a TCG Video Game for Pokemon it would be after Diamond and Pearl's release for a lot of specific purposes. Rule changes and new cards and new Pokemon and etc. It's highly doubtful that it will happen.

I'm sure Nintendo has kept the idea in mind, and has had the DS in mind but like Pokemart asked, yes there was issuses with just the idea as well as the companies who would be involved in the process, the game was even going to be made with the judges and non-tournament players in mind as well with people not actually in the start of said season starting with a POP ID and a starter deck with a pack from each of the legal modified sets at the start of the game, and thoses who judged in reality could play and anyone could actually judge to get the judges rewards and such, a lot of thought was put into the game and the AI engine was very well designed and thought out and easy to produce, Nintendo only had to put in their records and very little effort. As for a player in the game actually judging in the game, they would be asked questions similar to the proffessor test questions but more up to date during in game matches for said judge to resolve and you would earn points based on correct judge rulings at the current time. So in reality the game could very well increase a real player's skill and judges knowledge. Overall there was a lot of stuff that could happen and even included in the game was a kid at a tournament always needing a card for his or her deck at the last moment and if you lend him one he or she would repay you after the event with a promo or rare card at random, in the rough draft there was a function to try and join or start teams known throughout the pokemon TCG.
You see such a great game idea as this could only be created by you, the pokemon community of players, collectors, and judges from your hard work inreality so the game would in fact be like a gift back to the Pokemon TCG's fans who make the POkemon TCG what it is now.
 
I heard from a friend on the internet that there is going to be a new pokemon trading card game on ds. This will feature ex cards and d/p cards only.

Anyone else heard this rumour? Or is this an early april fools joke?

If so, be warned... don't believe anything tomorrow people! Wait a day THEN believe it (if the story persists...)

It might be an April Fool's Day prank, so for now (unless this was confirmed by Nintendo), do not believe in that rumour. That rumour might fool a lot of Pokémon Fans.
 
Scizorsfury:
That really is a great idea, but involves way to much work before it could actually be produced. All thats really needed is a well done AI opponent, WIFI capabilities, and online downloads which would include the updated rules / new sets. If we can get that; I'm sure the pokemon tcg community would be more then pleased. And the "basic" version would be used as a filler until you get the go ahead to programe all the decks to each IP number and so on. I'm sure its been done, but someone in "power" should at least propose the basic part of the game to nintendo.
 
Krucifier- It isn't, the likelyhood of the game being made now is less than 10% but none the less the idea and prototype was submitted and done.

sdrawkcab- It really wasn't as difficult as you think, you see even Japan had problems with there AI engine for TCG1 and TCG2 for gameboy, just trying to make an AI with a direction to operate a single deck in Pokemon is hard but with the records and lists that took care of about 40% of the problem and it made the AI's able to focus on what that deck could do and was supposed to do.

If the other companies could ever hash it out and stop trying to out do the other then maybe they could have some progress or at the very least make an average TCG game for the DS or Wii, but like I said I got very far with the process only to hit the legal dead ends, but that is the life of a game designer.
 
Yu-Gi-Oh World Championship

This thread might be an April Fools' joke, but I wish "the idea" wasn't.

I had the Pokemon Card Game for the Gameboy (well, I still have it), and liked it. The game was actually fun -- exploring the different areas, and battling to collect special cards. And you could trade them too.

It would be great if Nintendo would update this game. Being able to build any custom deck, and test it against anyone with a DS sounds pretty cool, eh?

But why is it not being done? Pokemon USA (PUI) and Nintendo should really consider the idea. Adding another game that appeals to the older Pokemon players has to be a money maker. If anyone suggests that it would hurt the card sales? ...maybe they should look at Konami's marketing plan for Yugioh.

Yugioh is holding their World Championship this year in a wireless only DS tournament. And as far as I can tell, their card sales aren't "in the toilet" quite yet. What does the Yugioh crowd know, that Pokemon can't figure out?
