    Great remake of an old school Pokemon game. Brings back a lot of memories of the top-down era before the advent of the newer mechanics and 3D worlds.

    Fun to play even if you already experienced the original diamond/pearl.

    Pokemon Diamond is my favorite Pokemon game of all time, so it was a must play for me. Game is great and mirrors the original with some improvements here and there.

    This remake was genuinely entertaining and did a good job staying true to the original gameplay of Pokemon Diamond that released for the Nintendo DS while also adding some quality-of-life improvements. I do kind of wish that there was more story content and innovation like in past Pokemon remakes.

    This game is excellent! There’s so much to do aside from just the linear gameplay of the older diamond and Pearl series. The graphics are also amazing on the Switch OLED. 10/10

    Just like the other Pokémon games it is very fun, per my son. He enjoys these games very much and always likes to obtain them when they first come on out. He has been playing Pokémon since the original game came out.

    Fantastic game in really brings you back to the Sinnoh region. I prefer the art style in comparison to the more recent titles. I played the original Diamond version as well. This was a beautifully done remake.

    The graphics are awesome and cute, and I love the new editions. Want to give a shoutout to Best Buy's awesome pre-order delivery. I was not expecting to get the game the day of the actual release, but I did!

    This game was fun to relive through the originals in the new and improved graphics, it also adds a ton of extra difficulty with a lot of the trainers(especially the elite 4) have actually good-held items that make the game way more fun. The only downside in my opinion is just there isn't really any replay value once you finished the game.

    The game is a fun nostalgia trip that allows you to catch older pokemon that haven't been in the newer games. Still less fire pokemon are in this one, but I can't not pick Turtwig.

    One of the few Pokémon games I wasn't able to complete. It's not the worst, it just wasn't able to keep me engaged. I still play the older games regularly along with newer ones, so new vs old isn't the problem. I also play the games on different consoles, so I can't point to it being on Switch. I have a friend who is a huge Pokémon fan and she struggles to replay this one. Neither of us can quite put our finger on what's off, however...

    I’ve been wanting a 1:1 remake of this game for years, & I’m happy that is is exactly that. The few small QoL changes made do not affect the original feel of the game, which I think is great.

    We gave this "Pokemon Brilliant Diamond" game to our 7 year old grandson for his birthday. He really is enjoying it. I can't give a rating to it, but he says it 5 stars!
