Before "Pok�mon Black & White" hits the shelves next week, let�s disclose some facts about this much-awaited installment shared by Nintendo CEO Iwata Satoru, Pokemon Co. CEO Ishihara Tsunekazu, and the "Black & White" director Masuda Junichi.

Check the facts and some of the game's illustrations under the cut!



The game�s main city is designed like New York City. A first for any Pokemon games which is always designed after Japan�s Kanto, Kansai, Kyushu and Hokkaido areas.

The staff reformulated the rules applied in previous games.
The staff made sure that the results of the game won�t be the same as Diamond & Pearl. However, there will always be the risk of ending the game similar to previous games.
It�s inevitable to graduate from playing this kind of game. So rather than sticking to a kana-only policy, it will have a kanji-only text mode that encourages even college students to play.
Just like any other installments of the Pok�mon game, there will be new pok�mon. Sugimori commented that adding new species of pokemons are a tricky business, since they have to maintain the balance of the eco system in the game -� i.e., it�s really hard work!



Seems like we can expect a lot from this newest game.
