Earlier this month, Nintendo revealed that they would be remaking the Game Boy Advance classics Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire under the titles Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. However, the third title in the third generation of Pokemon games was just as memorable and now it appears that Pokemon Emerald may also be receiving a 3DS remake.

Gematsu (via IGN) is reporting on a recent Nintendo trademark made public today. The trademark (originally filed on May 2, less than a week before the Ruby/Sapphire remake reveals) is for "Pokemon Delta Emerald," which follows the same pattern of outrageous titles as its third generation counterparts.

Though Pokemon Emerald is considered very similar to Ruby and Sapphire, it is notable for making some subtle additions to the formula. Among them was the debuting Battle Frontier, which challenged players to topple difficult AI trainers for in-game prizes.

A third remake has not officially been announced, but Shacknews has reached out to Nintendo for comment. Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire are set to release in November on 3DS.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?

      There most likely won't be a Emerald release on the 3DS. They're just covering their bases. They registered a WaterBlue trademark, but never released a Blue for the GBA.
