Sony has multiple studios (mostly not Japanese) that nearly exclusively make games for them--Housemarq, Ready At Dawn, thatgamecompany. None with the history of Gamefreak, but Gamefreak basically struck it rich and early with Pokemon, and Nintendo owns Pokemon, so...
What I don't get is why would Game Freak need Sega if they've already self-published a game on mobile already?
Anyway, as most people should know by now, the "Wide Boy" units are development systems (manufactured by a subsidiary of Nintendo, Intelligent Systems) used by licensees to test their GB, GBC, and GBA games on a TV screen or monitor, rather than the awful screen of said portable systems. Game magazines and retailers also used these WideBoys to display or promote games to the public.
Didn't they already collaborate for that horse racing game awhile back? IIRC, that was a mobile game, too.
By the way, not completely relevant, but Sugimori has been posting some of his old sketches recently. Yesterday he posted a few sketches for Jerry Boy 2.
It was rumoured to be more or less complete before being cancelled. The reason is speculated to be Sony's (who was the publisher) release of PlayStation around that time. Shame it was never at least ported to PS1, especially considering Click Medic, another Game Freak x Sony game released on PlayStation in 1999.
It's also the first game Pokémon's former sound lead Go Ichinose designed and lead development for, which I think is a good sign the game's worth localizing based on its quality.I remember how everyone got hyped for the Solitiba shit, till it ended up being a really funky game we never saw outside of Japan (but I'd like to try it).
Game Freak can't even get the latest Pokémon games to perform reliably whether or not 3D's onthey're not who I'd trust with programming SEGA's A-LIFE game systems, and Hashimoto (one of the programmers behind A-LIFE and the Luminous Engine) is off doing other stuff nowadays.Pokemon X Chao Garden

GAME got sent the picture as well. Not a mobile release?

Okay, now this has my attention. I wonder what system it will be on. 3DS?

Hopefully it has nothing to do with Pokémon. Some of Game Freak best games aren't in the Pokémon franchise, but they just keep milking it endlessly... I'd kill for a Drill Doze 2
Pulseman 2 or new IP pls
Sugimori's art is lovely...i dont know why, but it really hits me right where I live.By the way, not completely relevant, but Sugimori has been posting some of his old sketches recently. Yesterday he posted a few sketches for Jerry Boy 2.

If it was, then you'd think Nintendo would publish or they'd self publish
Even if attached to, say, an anime project?
So... uh, this hasn't happened yet, right? If not, it should in a bit, unless the announcement's been delayed or something.
Forgot about this. It wasn't in Famitsu seemingly so... nothing important?
Doesn't look like it was in Corocoro either, seeing as that usually leaks on the 10th. It's also getting somewhat late in Japan by now and there's been no word of it. It could be more western-focused.
Did they got the date wrong? lol
Trailer! http://youtu.be/nBcP_q5j9yY

The elephant is going to be called Donbo.
