You can hear wind blowing, water sloshing around (if you are near a body for water such as a river, lake, or ocean, even inside caves there is the sound of dripping water!, your footsteps on normal ground, the sound of grass rustling as you walk through it. Since any Pokemon follows you, the first Pokemon in your party is the one that will follow you outside its Poke Ball. There is A LOT more detail given with the outside world; Pokemon Diamond/Pearl/Platinum were just the engines in which HeartGold/SoulSilver were based upon, but more fleshed out; there's lily pads in small ponds or lakes, flowers appear in more places; the leaves in and around Ecruteak (the autumn leaves) are scattered upon the ground... The music is a lot better as well. It seems more instrumental than what was found in Diamond/Pearl/Platinum; the battle theme has more of a jingle to it. The Pokemon animations seem a lot better than just simple stretching and bouncing around. All in all, you fellow gamers are going to LOVE it once it hits the states. I know I will. March 21st 2010 can't come any sooner! That's the tentative release date, seeing as Nintendo said it launches in the spring of 2010 and Platinum was released (I THINK) around that date this year too. |
@bolded-Is this really an impressive feature? I've never played the original game, but this seems like an awfully meh upgrade if the sound of water, wind, your footsteps and some lily pads in the ponds are the major reasons to get excited about this. The DS can handle full 3D graphics, low PS2 quality 2D graphics and full CG cutscenes. Why would upgrades be of any concern on a Pokemon game like simplistic sound effects when this is something we've had for the longest time on the little dual screened beast?

I want a DS :(

The sound effects of movement and environmental enhancements add a sense of polish and give the game a more nature look (make it seem more realistic; that you are outside and you see more detail; D/P/Pt did not have that kind of detail) and sound.

Are we really arguing the merits of the realistic look of Pokemon here? Also while I understand the current gen Pokemon games didn't feature this, I still don't see the big hoopla of getting excited for it just because Gamefreak is lazy in this particular department. We're arguing over simplistic features other games have had for years on similar or even more outdated hardware. All I'm saying is now that Pokemon is only 3 years behind other DS offerings graphically instead of 10, it's no reason to get excited over it, especially since those features have nothing to do with the strengths of the franchise and only enhance it's weaknesses by mentioning them.
