Don't wait by foot, you'll get tired.

[Reese Riverson]

I really need to catch up on Pokemon games. I only have red, blue, and yellow.

[OCG]

At least you are not the worst one here Hoodcom regarding Pokemon games
I need to buy all of them since I own none right now.

[Master]

I don't think buying them all is a necessity, you can own an iteration of every main series Pokemon game if you start at Gen III.

I also have Hey You Pikachu on the N64.

Don't you realize that OCG is a collector as well?

Hah, well they're bound to drop a bit!! They'll probably be ANOTHER pokemon game out by the time I get a 3DS!

All you really need is Emerald though but then again there's these remakes.

If you want all the prev. games i'd suggest investing in : Emerald, either Fire Red or Leaf Green (Remakes of the originals, only difference is Pokemon caught in them), Platinum, either Heart Gold or Soul Silver (again remakes), Black or White, Black 2 or White 2, and X or Y (unless you want to wait for any potential "Z"'s)

The only thing is that you'll find those old cartridge games to be quite expensive now!

[Serza5]

Looking briefly on ebay listings the GB/C ones do seem to be quite on the expensive side, but then you get fine deals like this for the GBA ones : http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/5-POKEMON-GBA ... 4ad4f5c4c0

Well that looks pretty reasonable providing it doesn't get bid up ;P It's already that high with 4 hours to go, it's like to get bid up quite a bit more Either way I can imagine all the old games will be on something like the Wii U.

Please don't tell me that you are trying to get OCG to date Wallace.

Depends on where you find them, and how good of a deal you can find.

True, but as I said above it's most likely that the old games will be coming to a system where you just pay to download the game

From what I recall Game Freak has no intention to add any Pokemon games to the Virtual console.

Now why would I want to do that?

What they've ruled it out on the Wii U? I thought that console has started with a small list of games, and the list is only going to grow. The Pokemon games are bound to be on there, they'd make good money from it, and it's also a good incentive to own a Wii U.

[Serza5]

Ah yes, it's worth mentioning that Serebii confirms that these new games are indeed full remakes.

[rolesfamily]

Perfect <3 That's better then a continuation IMO

thanks for that Serza

Oh I guess you wouldn't, in reality.

Though I was told Emerald was a fantastic choice.

[rolesfamily]

It makes sense for these games to be remake, as there'd be a lot less work involved.

Emerald tends to be the favourite among most as it's as great as Ruby/Sapphire only it adds a lot more to the game, especially in the after game. It should definitely be your first.
