Yeah, well every Pokemon game is better than the one before it and the last one was fantastic.

The online play looks awesome and the connectivity with Battle Revolution is awesome.

Will it fall in the same way the other Pokemon games have and get boring after one beats the Elite 4, or will connectivity with other players online rock?

Are they just for DS? If so, fuck em. I only download roms for handheld systems and I don't think they can really emulate the gay little pointer pen thing.

Man, i havent played a pokemon game since Silver. But yeah, online play could be cool. Not just for battling but for Trading and just checking out whatever other people have in their collection. Plus, i can see nintendo putting out some Exclusive pokemon you can only get by downloading them online.

I'm not complaining, I'm saying they're of no interest if I can't get em free :). Also, I'm kind of at the point where I don't want or need to be whipping out a gameboy while I'm in line for stuff. If a situation like that does arise, I'll just play games on my cell.

The GB for PSP dmu has its uses.

But anyway, Nintendo's always had download-only pokemon. Also, people playing the Japanese rom say that the online trading and battling will NOT accept Pokemon gotten through hacks. So now you can't cheat to get Celebi.

BTW, I have a friend that has legitimately caught every Pokemon excluding Mew for obvious reasons.

I like the stylus controls. It looks simple.

You'd rather play games on a cell phone than lay down a few bucks for a DS? Your inner child is dead.

You make me sad.

The only thing that pisses me off about Battle Revolution is that they still haven't redone the goddamn models for the first 151 Pokemon, except for Pikachu. Those models have been used since the heyday of the N64, and it's about time to spruce them up. Smoothing out a few jagged polygons shouldn't be too much to ask. :(

I live in a small town. There are no lines or buses. There is no reason to have a hand held console and I really don't care :O

So what! You don't HAVE TO play a handheld system on the go/ I usually play Mario Kart at home because it's the only place I can get a decent unblocked WiFi signal. If you just hate the system just say it, quit pussyfooting around, you pussy.


And at least wait for a system to run it's course before you start stealing from them, you criminal. You seem to have enough money to put ball bearings in your dick (unless you got that for free ala a Tim Allen-esque construction accident, for which I apologize)


I don't think they can really emulate the gay little pointer pen thing.Yeah too bad the computer doesn't have a pointer on it. Now if you excuse me, I have to hit Tab until it goes down to Submit Reply.

I don't dislike the system. I've never played one and don't know anyone that has one, so I can't even comment on whether it's good or not. All I know is that I'm nowhere near interested enough in one to buy one. It would be for maybe 2 games.

As for the pointer - I searched around a bit for a rom of this game last week and read a few user comments saying that they've been having problems with something involving that pointer, and seeing as how I've never downloaded a ds rom, I wasn't sure and just went by what I'd read.

I sure as hell hope there are still those fancy metal stylus left when I pick mine up.

err..

I also would rather download and play games on my cell phone especially when I'm out somewhere, although I guess I am being a hypocrite being as I also carry around my laptop with me everywhere I go.

When the first Pokémon game came out for game boy I was able to catch all the ones that were available at the time. Now they have about 500 more.. :/

Zomboid, I think it's time you were introduced to the R4.

Putting roms on this thing is drag-and-drop simple, and they work perfectly.

I play the shit out of a new Pokemon game till I get bored of it and not play it again for a few years. Then I come back to it.

The next one'll be even better. It has to be.
