Another good observation. Glad that's the case as they need to cool it with main line releases. 

Slightly harder sounds cool to me. I'll give Red Rescue Team and Explorers of Time a try then. Thanks!

I tried playing Strange Journey, but it really was too hardcore for me I guess, I can't take only dungeon crawling without all that other stuff Persona adds to bring some variety. :D

The obsession with red and blue needs to die already. We had nearly 15 years of Kanto. It's time to move on. You know that Gen 6 is the first generation where Red, Blue, Misty, Brock, etc hasn't appeared? One generation, so far, without Gen 1 pandering. Wait. Forgot about the Kanto starters in Kalos. Seriously, enough with those games. Their time is gone. Like, 20 years gone. They never even really left. It took four generations to finally leave the physical region of Kanto. Think about that. Every generation, for four straight generations, we've been able to fully explore Kanto and get all eight badges and fight the elite four and battle Team Rocket. And you want to do it again?

This was not directed specifically at you, but the obsession with those games have gone so overboard. If they do something crazy different, like a new game with new characters that takes place 20 years later, starting in a different town, fighting a different evil, and maybe finally uniting Kanto and Johto into one region like the Tojoh Falls implies. And in using a different engine. Maybe even a different fighting system like the one from the Tales games or the SMT Devil Summoner games. Make it a spin off even. But seriously, no more main series games in Kanto. No more remakes. Do something new.
