Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire Announced

Pokémon has just announced that Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire will be released in November 2014 for the Nintendo 3DS. Not much more is known. Below is what the official site posted in their announcement:

Announcing Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems! Prepare for an epic adventure exploring a world filled with Pokémon!

Pokémon fans first enjoyed Pokémon Ruby Version and Pokémon Sapphire Version when it launched in 2003 for the Game Boy Advance. Now, a whole new generation of Pokémon fans will experience the dramatic storyline that unfolds in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire.

Look forward to Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire when the games launch worldwide in November 2014!

These games will be released in November world wide as confirmed by the Japanese announcement. The Japanese mini-site is kind of cool, by the way.

ps- Personally I cannot be more excited about these games. I don’t know what a heart attack feels like, but I think I had one when I saw these announced.

  1. I hope COROCORO has some stuff this month about it. It’d be nice to see at least some preliminary screen shots lol

    • Me too. Yet, as I said many times. Nintendo could just hold on news and show off a lot at E3. I’m sensing this is going to be a great E3!

      • That’s true, but then again why wouldn’t they have just held off all together until E3 anyway then? If they’re gonna announce something at this time I expect at least some teasers lol

          • Well either way I think that this’ll be a big win for Nintendo this E3 if they show it………….I don’t think I’ve ever said that about Nintendo and E3 before lol

          • Really? 2013’s E3 was amazing. Mario Kart 8, SM3W, X/Y Trailer, X from Monolith Soft, etc. Nintendo got a B+ at this last year’s E3! This one is going to be better!

          • Last year’s E3 was decent for Nintendo, but they have a track record for being underwhelming at times lol Either way I’m excited

  2. I’m really surprised to see how quickly this game was announced. It took 3.5 years to work on X/Y. Development for X/Y took place after B/W was released. I wonder how long it took to make this game!

  3. I SWEAR IF I DON’T HEAR TRUMPETS BLASTING BOTH MY EARDRUMS WHEN I PLAY THIS…….MORE THAN TABLES WILL BE FLIPPED >:(

  4. Expect Mega Latios & Mega Latias to make their debut in this game! That might be why the Pokemon were in X/Y coding. Just so we can trade Mega Stones with both versions (and Pokemon)!

  5. I think that Latios and Latias will be distributions in X and Y around the time of Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphires released.
    Latios in X and Latias in Y.
    You can trade them over to OR or AS to unlock an event where you can get the Latiosite or the Latiasite.

  6. 2muchhype5me! 😀
    Also, if you didnt know (idk if anyone mentioned this or not), but omega is the last letter in the greek alphabet (it’s 800) and alpha is the first letter in the greek alphabet (it’s 1)
    is there anything to do w/anything happening in 800 years ago in X/Y?
    And it says “A brand new adventure…” so it will be sequels right..?

  7. As i think they arent showing screen shots since i have a feeling walking with pokemon will make a comeback with and the special item that comes with it (poketouch) could affect the game in some way

  8. Holy. I wasn’t expecting this.
    Like.
    I thought this was a joke.
    Then I saw the video.
    And joyously celebrated in my mind. (My mom just got home when I had finished celebrating out loud by fangirling and screaming)
    Yes. Just yes.
    Emerald is all I have and all I have known, so if these are remakes with a twist/new graphics/slightly different, then I’d finally get to play the originals! 😀
    If it is like B2W2, then I wouldn’t mind either, because those were the better games, imo.
    All I need to see now is what they will look like. Screenshots, please. Please. I need to see what Hoenn will look like!!
    I just can’t to spend more time fangirling over a new game and new info and new speculationish.
    There’s even some right now! 😀
    To me, I’m leaning towards more a B2W2 thing that they are hinting at, but if it’s just a remake, I wouldn’t mind either. It’s Hoenn, for goodness’ sake, who wouldn’t be excited for it?!
    And I believe those might be Mega evolutions of Groudon and Kyogre, not forms, but hey, whatever floats GF’s boat. (I might have gotten used to Megas since I last talked on here regularly….what. I blame replaying the games and actually using them……and Mega Charizard X. And Mega Abomasnow. Don’t. Judge.)
    Anyways, glad to be back somewhat and talking again! (I just couldn’t relate to the tournament and other stuff going on)
    EDIT: I need Trick House to come back. Like. If not, I would be so sad and disappointed.
