Nintendo gets Pokémon platinum for its DS console
Pokémon Platinum is a new game for the DS console, which is claimed to bring a range of features including the mysterious new Distortion World, never-seen-before forms of powerful Pokémon, and online games in the new Wi-Fi Plaza.
Distortion World is home to the Legendary Giratina and is central to the new storyline in the game. It is a strange place where the normal rules of time and space no longer apply. With new discoveries and new challenges in the game, the options for online play have also been expanded.
The new Wi-Fi Plaza allows up to 20 players, with wireless broadband access, from anywhere in the world to connect and play mini-games, take part in parades and even see a fireworks show.
Players who visit the Global Terminal can post their Pokémon and trade them with players from around the world like in Pokémon Diamond Version and Pokémon Pearl Version. This allows players to find more Pokémon, and also allows players to get Pokémon from other countries, which are often sought-after by many fans. The new Global Terminal also allows players to use a new item, the Vs. Recorder, to save and post “videos” of their best battles online for Pokémon fans to see.
