Just a small appreciation post for Pokemon Leaf Green. I started playing this again recently and was surprised at how good it looks. Everything is so snappy.. the sounds, animations, sprites, everything. Even leaving battle animations on, it's faster than the previous 25 pokemon games with them turned off. Screenshots don't really do it justice, at least ones I've seen. Best I can do is tell you to click around this video a bit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vM1FKnIgwas Even this doesn't quite look right to me, but it still looks good here. Not sure if I'll finish my playthruough but I had to make a thread about this. Wonderful water.

It's so good, obsessively playing Blue Version on the original Game Boy is one of the things I credit with making me a lifelong gamer and the GBA remakes perfectly captured all the charm of the originals

FireRed/LeafGreen and SoulSilver/HeartGold are some of the best remakes ever made... OmegaRuby/AlphaSapphire was an immense disappointment, all things considered

We didn't know how good we had it

LeafGreen is incredible, it's the first game I fired up after putting a backlit screen in my GBA to see the difference. I never played the G/S remakes and I really should. Cursing myself for not buying it at the time.

This was the one Pokémon game that came out at the right time where I had a bunch of friends playing and got to trade and battle and stuff. Used to bring our GBAs and link cables on the bus during field trips

gba might still be my favorite portable system, the novelty of basically having an snes you could carry around anywhere was overwhelming. And the SP is slick as hell

So I guess I'm playing soul silver eventually. Very fond memories of actually getting Articuno and then him only being like my 3rd strongest regular roster member lol

gba was the console i was most excited for and spent the 4 months prior to launch staring at all the nintendo power articles about it before bed every night, and guess what the console owned

For some reason I just never cared for the gba games when I put hundreds of hours into the gb/hbc ones. Same with DS I just couldn’t get into them. I had a great time playing through shield though. Looking forward to the d/p remake and hoping they do gba games on switch at some point
