Game Freak: Pokemon games need familiar and new elements

“I consider every possibility. I think the games need something familiar combined with new elements.” – Game Freak Director Shigeki Morimoto
“If we thought totally reinventing the series would be attractive enough, we would definitely try. But, if we want to simply try something new, then, I just add those ideas to a new series. I always try to create a game that anybody, including those who have never played before, can enjoy.” – Junichi Masuda, producer of HeartGold/SoulSilver
I feel like fans have been hoping to see some changes with the Pokemon RPG titles. Personally, it seems like it would be beneficial to update the graphics and perhaps even sound effects. However, like Morimoto said, the series shouldn’t be given a complete overhaul.
