Can't wait. I tried playing my PSP the past few nights and I just get so bored of it. Picked up my DS and started Portrait of Ruin... mmm... DS. Need to start picking up the games I've been missing.

Pokemon is on sale at Circuit City, btw. I'm getting Diamond. What about you? Let's trade Pokemon.

I've never played a Pokemon title... is there something wrong with me?

Himu · « **Reply #2 on:** April 21, 2007, 02:39:46 PM »

Why is everyone going nuts about this?

demi · « **Reply #3 on:** April 21, 2007, 02:47:00 PM »

Because it's fun. And with the addition of WiFi, I can trade it with people across the interwebs, and even battle them. No need to find someone as lame as you who owns the same game and sit across from them with a cable.

it will be the first time i play since silver. im excited - but i cant afford it $:-\$

So is the PSP still worthless if you don't use it as a multimedia machine? I got it rid of it 3 months after launch because the games sucked. The games weren't bad by portable standards but they all seemed like PS2-lite games. The new MGS is the only PSP game that's interested me enough to want a PSP again.

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #6 on:** April 21, 2007, 05:01:20 PM »

Not really, but demi has a short attention span. There are a bunch of games for it and considering Pokemon is the first worthwhile DS release since Christmas time, it's not like that system was lighting the world on fire the past couple of months.

demi · « **Reply #7 on:** April 21, 2007, 05:03:07 PM »

That, and a lot of games to play. I still haven't touched Zelda yet. Or bought it. I'm just in a DS mood now. Have you seen PSP lineup in coming months? None of the good stuff comes out till like Fall.

PW 2 has been out for a loooong time if you count the japanese release which had full english dialouge. I havent touched my ds since Portrait of Ruin myself.

demi · « **Reply #10 on:** April 21, 2007, 05:11:15 PM »

I have a backlog of DS titles I want to get at, as posted in my "help me buy games" thread earlier.

Himu · « **Reply #11 on:** April 21, 2007, 05:25:12 PM »

DS is overrated.

Same here.

I'm not getting until the semester is over though. That would destroy my grades completely.

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #14 on:** April 21, 2007, 06:17:16 PM »

Can't wait. You're getting Diamond too?

Looks like we'll be the main people playing it here. If you make a Frostitution site for friend code sharing I'll make sure to post it on GAF

demi · « **Reply #15 on:** April 21, 2007, 06:18:37 PM »

Nah, I'm done with that. Why make a site for GAF?

I can just lurk and PM the ones I'd like to trade with.

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #19 on:** April 21, 2007, 06:29:44 PM »

You're banned...you can't PM anyone...

I haven't played since Pokemon RED. I kind of want to start up with this new one but I feel I have been out of the poke-loop for too long.

demi · « **Reply #27 on:** April 22, 2007, 12:38:13 AM »

Trade pokemon with me.

Bloodwake · « **Reply #28 on:** April 22, 2007, 12:57:49 AM »

I'm getting this game. I'm pumped.

We should have an official Friends Code thread for just Pokemon. I want to trade with all of you fuckers.

Van Cruncheon · « **Reply #29 on:** April 22, 2007, 01:30:36 AM »

Hmmm... I'm probably getting this... damn it.

The Sceneman · « **Reply #37 on:** April 22, 2007, 10:01:53 PM »

Me too

Im finding RPGs for DS quite irresistable at the moment. Im going to need something to play once I finish FFIII

brandonh83 · « **Reply #38 on:** April 22, 2007, 10:06:16 PM »

Yeah, my last DS game was Portrait of Ruin, which isn't exactly my favorite Castlevania... then I got a Wii and a PS3, and obviously most of my money as went toward all that bullshit and hoopla, but I think this'll be a welcome return to my DS.

The Sceneman · « **Reply #39 on:** April 22, 2007, 10:15:35 PM »

Man I loved Portrait of Ruin, I would say its one of the top Castlevanias. I think maybe I just had Metroidvania fever when I was playing it

brandonh83 · « **Reply #40 on:** April 22, 2007, 10:49:23 PM »

It was pretty good, I just had a lot of issues with it, like the level design and the repetitive rehashing of the stages in the second half of the game. I just thought it was very poor, uninspired game design. But then again it's fun to play, there's a lot to do, the challenge rocks and the music is awesome. Hey, even mediocre Castlevania games are still quite good.

G The Resurrected · « **Reply #41 on:** April 22, 2007, 11:55:16 PM »

Your not talking about pokemans so shut it and play pokemans.

brandonh83 · « **Reply #42 on:** April 23, 2007, 02:16:53 PM »

I am goddamn it I just got the game a few minutes ago.

hyp · « **Reply #43 on:** April 24, 2007, 06:32:20 PM »

played a bit of pokemon on the GBA -- but nothing more than a few hours. do people usually buy both editions? nintendo is fucking rich if so.

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #44 on:** April 24, 2007, 06:51:43 PM »

Looking at the reserve list, quite a few people bought both copies. There were incentives for people who did.

FatalT · « **Reply #45 on:** April 24, 2007, 07:17:43 PM »

Well, I've rid myself of my single powerful Pokemon obsession. I've caught 5 Pokemon so far. Pretty neat. I'm about to go to the second city to get the second gym badge at the moment. I finally got the Pal Pad and put my friend code up on frostitution.

So what are the starter pokemon to choose from this go around? Also what are the cool new pokemon they have added since pokemon red?

demi · « **Reply #48 on:** April 24, 2007, 10:41:21 PM »

PipLup - the cute water penguin

ChimChar - the cute fire monkey

Turtwig - the cute grass turtle

FatalT · « **Reply #49 on:** April 24, 2007, 11:03:22 PM »

They don't stay cute for long, though.

Yeti · « **Reply #50 on:** April 24, 2007, 11:39:53 PM »

oh man, all three of those starters are awesome, I don't know how I'll choose.

demi · « **Reply #51 on:** April 24, 2007, 11:45:17 PM »

Get a turtwig so we can exchange and i can add it to my sexy pokedex.

Yeti · « **Reply #52 on:** April 24, 2007, 11:47:53 PM »

I'm totally keeping my starter when I get one.

I'm leaning towards the Turtwig or Chimchar because I like their final forms more than the penguin's. The penguin is cool looking as a starter but has an ugly final form.

demi · « **Reply #53 on:** April 24, 2007, 11:50:17 PM »

it has voice chat too. we can seduce one another.

Yeti · « **Reply #54 on:** April 25, 2007, 12:16:59 AM »

OMG

what starter are you picking?

demi · « **Reply #55 on:** April 25, 2007, 12:21:12 AM »

I have a PrinPup, the evolution if the PipLup. I just got the first badge. I loaned Robby my PipLup so he could beat it.

Hey Demi whats your friends code? I'll send you something if you like

Mine's

demi · « **Reply #57 on:** April 25, 2007, 01:25:17 AM »

Ok, how far are you? I have Diamond. I only just beat the first gym, so I have slim pickings. I put my Onix I randomly grabbed on GTS for a PipLup just for kicks - since you can only look for stuff you've seen.

I've gotten the second badge and I'm fiddling around catching a bunch of Pokemon. I also have Diamond.

I'm adding demi and Liquid now.

Alrighty.

What is your code, FatalT, I will add you too.
