Pokemon Omega Ruby and Pokemon Alpha Sapphire

Nintendo has announced Pokemon Omega Ruby and Pokemon Alpha Sapphire, remakes of the GBA adventures coming to 3DS in November.

The decision to remake Ruby and Sapphire isn't hugely surprising, seeing as predecessors Pokemon Red and Blue and also Pokemon Gold and Silver have all been revamped and relaunched before now. What are your thought's on it? and whats up with them saying it's a all new world?
