If you've ever played it, you'll realize that it has all of the elements of an RPG. I could explain how but that would cost too much time so I'll assume that you either know or can research if you feel like. Next up would be making it 3d and online. Since Pokemon has been a hit to so many worldwide, don't you think someone will make an MMORPG out of it? If so, why and how? If not, why not and what are the obstacles, factors, etc... that might prevent a Pokemon MMO from forming? PS: If anyone thinks it'll never become one because it's a dumb show that caters to 5-10 year olds, consider this- The original Japanese version catered to teenagers. When it came to America, the producers watered it down to suit children. If you get some subtitled episodes of the original JapanesePokemon show, then you'll see what I mean. | |
I see it being possible in every way, and i pray that it never happens. | |
I hate pokemon, but I think that he has potential as a MMORPG (The purchase and creation of new monsters will be its main feature) Strange no one ever thought about it. It would beat direct competitors as Rose Online and Ragnarok, hands down. | |
It has all the bases allready down for a traditonal MMORPG, PvP (Battle other pokepeople) PvE(Catch them) BBQ(Eat them) :P be evil and join the bad guys, etc etc, probably is in production somewhere :) | |
Originally posted by ste2000 Amen! Originally posted by Ducky It would be a semi-PvP; You wouldn't directly battle other players, but their Pokemon. PvE wouldn't just be catching them; there are also wild battles. You can either waste them or catch them before they're wasted. As for that BBQ comment, LOL but eating Pokemon never happens, ever. | |
The only obstacles would be that the game is targeted to 5 year olds, and MMOs require a monthly fee and a credit card to play. That and Pokemon sucks. | |
i think this will happen so be afraid be very afraid. the only reason why this may not happen i becose of some corpate deal with nintendo (if they have excluseve onwership on games). then i dont think that they will be going in to the PC market. but what do i know .  | |
Schultz, the BBQ was a joke, as for kids getting credit cards, rember all the kids running around in there Pokemon T-Shirts? Pokemon come across as cute and cuddly, i think the kid's parents would shell out the money. | |
If a Pokemon mmo comes out, I will then know for a fact..There is a God and he does in fact Hate the entire planet.. Yes I am an old school MTG player thus I have a very high level of animosity for pokemon and its following. | |
Originally posted by Noubourne Noubourne, did you know that Pokemon in its original, Japanese form catered to teenagers? When it came to America, the producers here watered it down to fit children. Yes, American anime producers have been known to twist and mangle many Animes. Maybe it'll get released in Japan so the game retains its unoriginal, teenage, Japanese characteristics, then when it spreads around the world, we can all enjoy it the same way they do. If children want to play it their way, they can just go back to the Gameboy games and Americanized TV shows of it. | |
Isn't Pokemon passe now, even for 5 year olds? | |
When consols Explode onto the MMO world one day this game "if its made" will become Pixel crack for kids,.I dread that day,. the big PDAY lol. | |
So you know, If anyone thinks the Pokemon franchise will never see their own MMORPG because it's a dumb show that caters to 5-10 year olds, consider this- The original Japanese version catered to teenagers. When it came to America, the producers watered it down to suit children. If you get some subtitled episodes of the original Japanese Pokemon show, then you'll see what I mean. In other words, this MMORPG (if it retains its original Japanese elements), will kick 455! | |
I can see it happening. Aren't they making a Hello Kitty MMO? | |
Originally posted by hapwned That's what I thought!  You p\/\/n, man!As long as Pokemon stays strong, SOMEONE's gonna make an MMO out of it. | |
I don't think there will be an MMO version of Pokemon. Why? Easy to explain. Pokemon has become a game/tv program for younger kids, most of the time under 13 or 14 years of age. Lets face it, kids under that age do not buy online games, certainly if that game would charge a monthly fee: they can't effort it. And that's the main reason. | |

Not only can I see it happening, I can see it succeeding - unfortunantly. | |
I understand your like for the japanease version, but Pokemon is too widly known as a pre-teen type of game, i have never seen the japanease version of pokemon, nor do i care too, but if its made in the states, under the name Pokemon, it will be much like what is here. | |
Originally posted by Ducky What if it gets made in Japan? FFXI and some others have been made in Japan as well, so why not Pokemon? I would hope that it's made in Japan so it caters to the main MMO player audience. | |
Originally posted by shultzI did see that, and I understand it as well. I don't think you understood my words though. The original Japanese version you're talking about is not well-known amongst teenagers. That means that only a very small ammount of people would buy the game. Companies don't invest money to see only a small group of customers interested in their product. Pokemon MMO --> Small group of customers --> Not enough profit for the company who created it --> No Pokemon MMO. Easy enough... | |
Originally posted by shultz Becuase it wouldn't sell in the states, for a two reasons, 1. You just alienated your first U.S Player base, the young kids, 2. How many people do you know of around the age of 15-25 that would openly admit they are playing Pokemon Online? And because the "true" pokemon isn't known enough, people are going to hear Pokemon! and think pokemon like the GB versions. Would need a new name :) | |
Originally posted by Ducky How about, "The Chronicles of Ash Ketchum"? Or "Pocket Monsters Online"? (What other name ideas do you have?) Besides, with the chat feature, young kids couldn't play this MMO anyway due to COPPA laws governing that anyone under 13 shouldn't interact with others in many ways. Also, is Hello Kitty going to allow kids under 13 to chat? They'd wish, but probably not. | |
I think it should be called Pocket Monsters, thats the name it has in japan. | |
I'd have to say even though pokemon is kind of childish that would make a kind of fun mmorpg...But i would hope it is downloadable and free....yeah i am getting bored of the mmorpgs i am playing now. | |
