Do you find it hard to play the old games?

[Wigglytuff]

Yes, quite a few things bother me about them now .

1) I hate playing them on a gameboy

2) Little to do (save BT in Crystal but still) after Elite Four

3) Horrible leveling up move sets

4) Physical/Special split (Though I can tolerate this)

Also, your Pokemon are stuck in that game. At least in RSE and Gen I and II remakes I can transfer all my Pokemon over, so everything all accumulates on my master game and I get to keep all my Pokemon/TMs/items/etc.

 

[Princess Viola]

Not really no.

I still love playing Crystal.

 

[Hell Master]

They're not hard.....just a bit boring after the E4 except Emerald and Crystal. And did someone else find RS boring?

 

[IslandWalker]

Playing Ruby just seems...odd now with Platinum. I can´t even imagine how replaying Red will feel now...

 

[Chebon]

Oh man, that would feel awkward and tedious.

 

[IslandWalker]

Yep. I´ll try it tomorrow and tell you guys.

 

[Bianca222]

That is true. The gameplay feels soooo much slower (but you can always use Pokemon Stadium and go Dodrio speed ). But I can still play it because of the nostalgic feeling I get whenever I here my character hop on his bike and listen to the theme for as long as I can .

 

[ares5566]

Lmao.
Waste of a vid ^

 

[Dilophosaurus Rex]

It's odd, sometimes. I'm currently playing through XD again in the hopes of getting some good Pokémon, but I'm too used to the physical/special split.

 

[glow]

Not at all. They're perfect to just pick up and play.

 

[062regrahc]

i grew up with RBY ang GSC, so i'm used to them, although i do sometimes forget that there are no running shoes and that there was no phys/spec split in the 3 games b4 D/P/PT/HG/SS

other than that, im used to all of the games.

 

[Dr. GM]

All that bothers me is the unable to run around part.

 

[eevee91]

The only two things that bother me when I replay the old games is the lack of the Exp. bar, and pushing the start button for the menu. I get that mixed up between games all the time. For example I played silver once, and then I later played platinum. When I switched to platinum I was pushing the start button and was like "Where's the menu! Oh, that's right I'm using the DS."

 

[The Pig King]

I recently replayed Blue, and I really enjoyed it. What I liked the most was that the Pokemon and moves were so much more limited. The only things that bugged me were the lack of Exp. bar and Running Shoes.

 

[brightjules]

someone stole my yellow version and gold version ages ago, so now i only have sapphire... still, i could imagine it might be a bit annoying...

 

[Moltres111]

I shouldn't have played Emerald on an emulator..
(and then accidentally deleted the save file because I was impatient - **** me)

That's what makes me think Hoenn is a bit boring now, when i'm actually playing through the game on the cartridge. (I need something a bit better than a Naive Kyogre and a Careful Rayquaza in my opinion)

 

[cascade88]

All that bothers me is the unable to run around part.

Ditto. Otherwise, I find playing the older games to be fun and nostalgic.

 

[Zesty Cactus]

Sometimes it's weird for me to abrubtly switch games (like, if I was playing a lot of Emerald and then it's like BAM I WANT TO PLAY YELLOW) but I don't really find it "hard" to play an older game. I do miss some newer features when I'm playing first gen, but it's never actually a hardship.
