A:Answer Hey Pere! The simple answer is that most Pokémon fans won't mind the increase in MSRP for an HD remake, even if it doesn't have any new content. Finding copies of the original D/P nowadays can be pretty expensive! Hopefully they add content from Platinum to make the game feel more fleshed out. Also keeping my hopes up that they'll fix up the art style a bit, as the character models and animations look rather unsettling to me! Perhaps make them similar proportionally to those from the Link's Awakening remake?
I wish it was $40 like the original D/P pricing, though.
