Split page
I am suggesting that this page be split back up into Pokémon Gold and Silver and Pokémon Crystal. Gold and Silver were released together as the same game. However, Crystal was released separately as a "More complete version". As we have done with the whole set of Street Fighter II games, they should each have their own pages. -- Prod (Talk) 12:34, 8 February 2007 (CST)
- Hi Prod. While I understand your reasoning behind this decision, I have to object. And I do so largely because I have been considering tackling these long neglected guides, so I have been thinking about how best to arrange them. The reason things worked with Street Fighter II so well was because each version built on the other, so that there was one common page, and a set of addendum. However, with P:GS and P:C, roughly 90% of the material is identical between all three versions. Therefore, the walkthrough provided for GS would be 100% applicable to C, and something akin to the Heart Piece or Skulltella boxes in the LoZ:OoT guides in order to present material that is unique to C. In fact, I am so convinced that this is the proper way to go, that I would even go so far as to recommend the same treatment be given to Red/Blue and Yellow (that is, they should be merged to one guide, with side bars informing players of any unique yellow features throughout the guide.)
- At the very least, I can see having two separate front pages, one for P:GS and one for P:C, but the walkthrough that they both point to should be the same. Perhaps that is all that you intended Prod, but I wasn't certain so I figured I'd spell it out. Let me know how you feel about this. Procyon 13:32, 8 February 2007 (CST)
