It is now when Diamond and Pearl have been available for over two months, and the [[bp:Mystery Gift|Mystery Gift]] system of downloads has been re-introduced, that the GBA games are once again recognized as yet-to-be-obsolete games. It deserves to be noted that nowhere in the campaign description are the DS titles mentioned, contrary to what some might think to be intermediary means of getting {{p|Lugia}}, {{p|Ho-Oh}}, {{p|Latias}} and {{p|Latios}} in those games. Instead, Diamond and Pearl's own promotion for the Electrobooster and Magmabooster items will continue elsewhere in Japan, though it will also play second fiddle to this promotion at the Winter Festival. | It is now when Diamond and Pearl have been available for over two months, and the [[bp:Mystery Gift|Mystery Gift]] system of downloads has been re-introduced, that the GBA games are once again recognized as yet-to-be-obsolete games.

Of particular interest is the question how this will carry into 2007. Before that, [[bp:Pokémon Battle Revolution|Battle Revolution]] will be released next week, and though there has been no word on GBA compatibility, this campaign combined with the first video of the game ascertains that such a thing is entirely within the realm of possibility. | Of particular interest is the question how this will carry into 2007.

More so, it is apparently in the interest of the Pokémon Company. Even without Battle Revolution support, [[bp:Wii|Wii]] opens up a word of options with WiiConnect24, a Wi-Fi download service, which can host DS Download Play downloads triggering Mystery Gift in [[bp:Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen|FireRed, LeafGreen]] and [[bp:Pokémon Emerald|Emerald]]. | ||
