You're in luck, we call it HeartGold and SoulSilver.
You know what I mean. Kanto as in Generation I games in updated graphics. 
quote azavier
As much as I would like to see it updated some, I personally only see the remakes having happened due to the Gen 2 to Gen 3 move. You know, the whole "incompatibility" thing. Because Gens 1 and 2 were no longer compatible, they had to remake those games, in an attempt to save face when the people who had all those Pokemon waiting to transfer over to Gen 3, found out they could never do so. That all of their hard work, and countless hours of dedication was literally for nothing.
I definitely se what you mean. But also, if you think about it, although it will never be completely incompatible, sooner or later the GBA is going to become out of date, as well. =/
