I picked up Heart Gold today and it's been great so far. Gold and Silver are my favorite Pokemon games so being able to play through them on a new and updated platform is awesome. I've been playing for almost three hours and I'm not even at the second gym yet, I think I've been spending too much time training and catching pokemon .

SoulSilver because I had Silver when I was young. I would have had it today but the Gamestop closed at 7PM and I didn't have time to go before that. So I'll get it tomorrow. Gonna choose someone other than Cyndaquil to start with because I've got a bunch of them on Pearl that I can trade over. Then I'll have double starters.

I got Heart Gold.

Doesn't matter in the end, as I can get a lot of people online to trade with.

At least it wasn't Pokerus... I got that five minutes into the game, didn't know what it was, deleted the save, learned that it had a 1/18500 or something chance of showing up. Argh.

Also I have to wait two more weeks to get the game.

Eh, Pokemon doesn't mean much to me anymore. The people I fight are either so casual I smush them accidentally, or these OCD people whom I don't have enough hours in my life to properly train to compete against.

At one point, HeartGold was actually winning.
I wonder why the change, though. Always it was the "first" version which people bought more. Now it's the second. Weird...
Anyways, I'm definitely getting one of them, not sure which one though.

I'm heading out to buy HeartGold after my Track Practice today. Was going to yesterday, but got distracted and bought Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, since I haven't played it yet.

I'm almost afraid to say, lest it spark loldrama again, but here goes...
  • RNG seemed broken, and AI seemed to heavily rely on it. I'd be hunting and find the same wild Pokémon 57 times in a row, then it'd be another one 57 times in a row, and on like that. Enemies would just use the same move over and over and over again. Attacks would hit 92 times in a row, then miss 12 times, etc. (Numbers pulled out of my arse.)
  • The music (samples, really) and sound effects were just AGH, which is odd because I usually like game music even if nobody else does.
Actually that's all the engine-specific issues I can remember (probably more though ), the rest were more with the design of the game... that was Ruby and none since have drawn my interest at all, but the new games look like the same engine just ported to DS and with "3D" transformation mode, which apparently introduced a lot of lag and bugs. Bleh.

G/S did a lot of things very right, so any good recreation will have to get those same things right again. Hopefully they do and the game becomes so popular among kids who didn't play the originals that it inspires them to go back to that. Sadly they seem more like the type to try to shoehorn in all the new types and critters and items where they don't belong...

(I actually have the ROMs already, but if I'm going to actually play the damn games, I'd prefer to actually buy them. Besides, I don't have a flash cart or an emulator that doesn't suck anyway. In fact, I'm not sure I could get any DS emulator to work on this machine, even without considering the games' protections...)

Ugh I hate you all. I can't afford a DS....well technically I have the money, but I really shouldn't spend it. I keep putting money towards my 360 and PC. I was beat when they stopped making them for GBA. I used to have Red, Blue, Yellow, Gold, Silver, Ruby, Sapphire, Fire Red & the Trading Card game, along with all of the ones on N64.

Yeah I was a Pokémon freak when I was a kid lol. Recently I've been in the mood for it, so I went out and bought Fire Red again. Now my sister is trying to get leaf green lol.

Also started going through my old cards to see what they're worth. Out of the 33 cards I've done, my most valuable seems to be a Holo Dark Golbat which is worth a minimum of $4 and max of like $7.50 or something....according to eBay anyway

Oh and for the record, I'd pick Soul Silver if I could. Silver when I was a kid. Lugia ftw

----

I didn't know there were DS emulators! Altho I wouldn't be able to do the whole online thing. And I don't like the idea of having to sit in front of my computer while playing it.

BTW, you can get both in both versions IIRC. One is level 70 and in a underwater cave. :<

A whole group of my pokemon had an outbreak of pokerus without me even noticing it.
I later found that I had accidentally quarantined one the affected pokemon --

then I used it to infect everything

Kay, I'm ordering it tomorrow, and I'm going to throw a coin on which one, because I can't decide.
The Pokétch coin, of course.

Apparently I found a Shiny Pokerus Marill on the GTS.

Regardless of if it was hacked or not, I needed a water type for Surf, so I just took it.

...That's a pretty damned cheap-and-easy trade. Good catch.

I wonder if anyone has a Mew up, honestly. I've grown accustomed to having one.
