    While these games are perfect for those who loved the sinnoh games when they first came out it does get a bit boring once you beat the main story. Compared to the last releases these games don't really hold that excitement in the postgame.

    Simply put, these are the DS games, 1 to 1. You’d hope some advancements would be made in terms of bonus objectives or general software fidelity, but these are the same games you played in the past for better or worse.

    I'm glad i got the game, but i didn't like i had to wait longer than other people to get it, especially when i preordered it. It was inconvenient for me. I got the keychain the day of release, but not the game.

    It's not about the game. It's about the process. I pre-ordered online when it did not have the bonus item. I went to the store and ask for it, and they canceled my order and replaced one WITHOUT my previous discount! Because of this issue, I wasted 3 hours driving back and forth, AND talked to the Call Center for an hour! In the end, I talked to another customer service. He fixed my problem within 3 minutes. So Best Buy you need to work on your policy and system!

    Pretty faithful remakes but this series needs some serious improvements because it has been the same game for about 30 years.

    It arrived a day late and the pre-order bonus didn’t come with it. This is the 3rd time this has happened with a pre-order bonus. Thank you for screwing me over again…
