A caso: I fan rifanno Pokémon gialli in Link's Awakening-Style 3D

We Pokémon fans have been frankly spoilt by remakes in the past. From Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen via di ritorno 2004 to the recent Diamante brillante e perla brillante, if there’s one thing that we love, it’s playing the same game again only slightly different looking.

One fan has taken this mission statement and ran with it. Published on their YouTube channel, Pokebro has spent the past two weeks attempting to remake Banca Pokemon Chespin Fennekin e Froakie in 3D and the results are seriously impressive.

The full video (found above) shows that this was no simple task. Bandai Namco ospiterà Dragon Ball Battle Hour CodyCantEatThis‘ project from last year – where he redesigned Pokémon Rosso e Blu – Pokebro’s video sees the designer remake popular locations such as Pallet Town, Viridian City and Route 2 in, you guessed it, 3D.

The artist references the Awakening di Link remake as a key inspiration for their finished product, and we can definitely spy hints of the Il Turista in that crisp voxel art. On top of these eye-catching sprites, the rebuild also adds some new mechanics to the game. These include an early-stage take on Basta guardare il modo in cui fissano la tua anima‘s ‘Let’s Go’ system where Pikachu will leave you to perform wild encounter battles, and a Pokémon Leggende: Arceus-esque Poké Ball throwing graphic.

Adding these features to the miniature toy feel of the project, Pokebro’s build has got us kinda hoping for another remake (tipico). The video is, unfortunately, just a video for the time being and doesn’t tecnicamente work as a playable game. While it seems unlikely that the Pokémon Company would ever turn to this HD-retro style for their games in the future, there’s no harm in keeping our fingers crossed.

What do you make of this remake style? Send your Pikachu down to the comments to let us know!
