They’ve been teasing Gen 5 for a while, although Blueberry Academy DLC is full of Gen 5 stuff as well, so it’s either tying the DLC to the anime, or potentially hinting at a remake too. Just hope they go for a pixel style like the originals rather than trying to update it like with BDSP, which only worked well in a couple of areas really.

No reason why Gen 1-3 can’t come to the couple of Apps over the next few months, still think I’d prefer to buy them, as I can see them not having Home support if they’re through the apps.

The D/P remakes, due to their style, felt way less ambitious than the other ones. Granted, the chibi graphics did mean they were somewhat faithful to the source material, but the previous tradition in remakes was to bring the old games up to par with the mainline title of the time (so ORAS looked like X/Y; HGSS looked like D/P etc).
Coincidentally, we got these simplistic remakes around the same time as doing a "proper" remake would have meant turning them into full 3D like Sword and Shield. Far from me to accuse Game Freak of taking the lazy option...
They also farmed into out to another company. They were definitely the worst of the remakes we have had so far, and I don't think the fanbase would accept Black and White being done this way (though almost certainly that is what will happen).
We also probably got the simpler, more faithful remakes (outsourced to ILCA) because part of the main team was on with Legends Arceus. Personally I’d love it if we got HD versions of BW/BW2, with the various mythical events back in the game (no timed mystery gifts like in BDSP please, which was bizarre), the pixel art was amazing in BW/BW2
