After just 21 days in the UK, FR/LG have already sold over 1 million copies. In Japan they have sold over 2.2 million since being released and are topping multi-format games in the charts.

And all they did was turn one of the best RPGs of all time into a colour version with better graphics and more features.

Brilliant, huh :)

I'd go for 90% old repackaged and spruced up, 10% new.

Plus they look slightly better than the Ruby/Sapphire games, have all the features and then more some, for instance the new recap feature which shows you the last major events you had when you start the game.

Nope, it's been super charged, once you beat the elite four for the first time you can visit up to 9 new islands and beat team rocket for the last time in an all new story plot, and if you thought the elite four would be exactly the same once you retried it? Think again, they've got some of the newer pokemon from Ruby and Sapphire and their levels have been upgraded by at least 10-5 levels each.
