New Pokemon on the way: Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire

Nintendo has just announced Pokemon Omega Ruby and Pokemon Alpha Sapphire, the next titles in the Pokemon franchise, and a throwback to the original 2003 Ruby and Sapphire releases. The pair of games are due for release on Nintendo 3DS and 2DS in November 2014, and apparently provide "a fresh take on Pokemon Ruby and Pokemon Sapphire." Nintendo says that the games feature "a spectacular new world." Notably, the official website for the game also suggests that the game features Pokemon characters from the recent X & Y titles, and does not stick to Ruby and Sapphire creatures only. Nintendo has chosen to announce this new Pokemon game on the same day that it recorded losses for the last fiscal year.
