I was sort of hoping to see an entirely new story. Something different than 'Hey! here's a pokedex. The professor would like you to help him fill it with data'.
It would be great if they changed it up I agree, but let's face it, they've been using the same plot since what, 1995? I'll never expect them to change it, maybe one day I'll be pleasantly surprised, but I'm not counting on it.
Kind of lame that the game doesn't utilise 3D all the time though...is that typical? Do other games do that aswell?
I recently picked up White, playing that now. Kind of annoying how there's no old Pokemon until after the Elite Four, I have no fucking idea which of these Pokemans are any good. I don't like to use guides or wikis but I am considering just looking to see which of these things are worth catching and spending time to level. Right now I just rely on my Tepig evolution whatever the hell it's called, and a Krocokomo whatever the hell that is called.
I probably won't get a 3DS for another few years, when there's a load more games for me to get that I care about. For all I know Nintendo might release another updated version of it anyway, that I can buy down the line. I haven't touched my DS in about 3-4 years so I'm going to catch up on the final games made for it that I haven't played yet, starting with White, then everything else I can think of, and then probably Black 2 or White 2 to finish it off if enough time has passed that I can stomach another Pokemon game. Sounds like a plan.
