you want to know the real question?

why, after 10 years, has nintendo yet to put out a pokemon rpg on anything but handheld consoles (i can understand the n64, but come on, no gamecube or wii (as of yet)).

And here I have always thought of the Zelda series as an RPG.

 Xd and colleseum were both rpgs. 

 This question has been asked many times, lol.  I'm holding out for a Wii MMO with 3d real-time battles.  It would be cool to have real people wandering around instead of loads of NPCs that stay stationary 24/7.

This is the one MMO I think I'd get into.  

I consider the Zelda series a  rpg you gain stats/lvls by hearts and items, and there are mini quests. The only thing it doesn't have that makes it an rpg is character customization and role taking.

 I always considered it an action/adventure with lots of items. :P

 Isn't XD and Colleseum pokemon rpgs.

i guess, but they make me sad.

Yeah I want to see a pokemon mmo or at least a game that is like the hand held ones.

 I guess they could be considered RGPs, but we're talking about taking the GB/DS Pokemon formula and bringing it to a home console.
