    Love this game. Everyone said it was a trash remake but as an OG pokemon lover that prefers the original games, I think its a great remake.

    Loved the original back when it was on DS and so far have enjoyed this remake on Switch. Ordered through Best Buy as usually good condition and reliable.

    Remaster, not a Remake

    The game is a faithful recreation of the original with modern graphics. Don’t expect many additions. This is not like sword and shield or scarlet and violet. I wish they had put more effort into creating a more fleshed out version. I would consider this more of a remaster than a remake.

    Why did I do this to myself?

    I grew up playing Pokémon with my brother and so I picked this up to play through it and trade Pokémon with him over Christmas. I really should have just waited for Pokémon Legends: Arceus though. This game is fine but I did not get all the way through it. It couldn't hold my attention with it's super basic story and slightly more difficult than typical battles. The Pokémon roster is also nothing special but in my opinion nothing since Gen 2 has been. Get the other game and pass on this is my advise. No one should ever buy another basic rehashed Pokémon formula game again. They just proved they know how to do better than this game with that and in comparison this is boring. It scratches a collecting itch but why not buy something else where you can actually have real fun while doing that?

    Classic Pokémon diamond and pearl. I enjoy the look of this game. Yes it’s a bit cutesy, but it’s enjoyable and brings back classic Pokémon plus no need for HM Pokémon on the team!

    Very solid remake. It's not something I'd play through multiple times like Sword or Legends Arceus, but if you want to play Gen 4 again, it's pretty faithful.

    I bought this game since I was super excited for a remake of one of my favorite childhood games. It was an overall fun time but still lacking in terms of post-game elements.

    A Solid Remake of a Video Game Classic

    This game is a good copy of what the original Pokemon Diamond experience was like during my childhood. Many minor improvements, but overall lacking in game mechanics, but still a solid game for those who never experienced the original game, or wants a simpler, less gimmicky Pokemon.

    Had a blast finally being able to play this game again, not super different but it's been nice that I can play an updated version of it on the console that I use most anyway.

    Awesome game. Gameplay is great, the picture looks beautiful on the switch. Definitely recommend getting one of these two new releases depending which Pokémon you like most!

    A great game if you have never played the DS originals. If you played the originals recently, I would hold off on purchasing as it is almost one to one in gameplay experiences with modern touches. Would recommend for new fans that haven't played before and older fans that haven't played in awhile.

    It’s a remaster of a Pokémon game from back in the handheld days. On top of that you’ll get a larger screen if you’re still playing it in portable mode

    Kept to a lot of its roots. Fun region to go through. Worst thing is the moe like people and zooming in on cutscenes. The art is great for everything else. In battle is also great.
