Pokemon Black

Plenty of new information about the next incarnation of the Pokémon franchise was released this week. New features, modes, and gameplay mechanics were all announced, and Nintendo was even nice enough to detail some of it. Obviously the biggest change to the game and the subject that we've received the most information about so far is the video chat features.

It looks like we finally have a firm release date for the next Pokémon adventures. September 18^th will see the release of Black and White in Japan, with a North American release yet to be announced. The release date was provided via the first trailer for the game, which you can check out below!

Today Nintendo released a little more information about the next generation of the Pokémon games. It looks as though we’ll be seeing Pokémon Black/White on the North American shores as early as Spring 2011. This bit of information was confirmed as Nintendo updated the NA Pokemon website to show a teaser image of two new Legendary Pokémon, named Reshiram and Zekrom.
