Do you have what it takes to get a review published right here on Kotaku? Cameron does, as he grinds and grinds and grinds and grinds and…
One of the perks of this job is being sent copies of games I’d never otherwise consider playing. Like Pokémon Platinum, for example.
There’s a “new” Pokémon game coming to DS. It’ll be here May 14.
Yet, another DS game piracy arrest. A 57 year-old cram school manager has been taken into custody for illegally pirated Nintendo products. He was arrested after complaints from Nintendo.
DS title Pokémon Platinum details are divulged in the August issue of CoroCoro comics. Besides announcing official Japanese release date is September 13th, there’s a bunch of new details like a new “Wi-Fi Club” area that’s able to hold up to 20 folks at once, a new Team Galatic member, new international police member, a “Battle Recorder” that allows trainers to record and share battles, and Dialga and Palkia appearing simultaneously in story.
Yeah, you read that right. New. Pokemans. Prepare yourself (though don’t get too excited). Although strongly hinted at last month (and subsequently spilled in a few Japanese mags earlier in the week), it’s only now had its wraps officially taken off by Nintendo. Titled Pokemon Platinum, it’s due sometime in the Spring. Those hoping for a new, full Pokemon adventure will be disappointed to hear it’s just an expansion to Diamond/Pearl (much like Pokemon Yellow, back in the day). Those happy with any Pokemon they can get , however, should still be tickled pink. Click through for a couple of new, teeny screens.
