The Pokémon Company has announced the DS titles Pokémon Diamond and Pokémon Pearl are getting remakes on the Nintendo Switch this year, with new visuals and other improvements in tow.
During today’s Pokémon Presents event, The Pokémon Company introduced a brand-new adventure and gameplay style in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, but those looking for a trip down nostalgia lane, it also introduced the long-awaited remakes of Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. Called Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, the new games try to breathe new life into the titles originally released on the Nintendo DS in 2006 in Japan (2007 worldwide). However, unlike prior remakes in the franchise, these don’t bring the original games to the same level as the current main series games — Pokémon Sword and Shield.
