Downside is the gaming center in Johto. It only has one game. Haven't been to Kanto yet. If I remember correctly, Kanot's is better?

Please be better. :L If it's Voltorb Flip again, I'll rage.

Downside is that the Pokemon are still weak, upside is that it remained largely the same compared to the originals.
 
They're both Voltorb Flip. The American (And most likely the European versions) were edited to include only that game, to discourage gambling addiction.

The downside to this game, from what I've noticed, is the extreme importance on touch controls. Platinum was a good balance between buttons and touch input, but this game took it to the extreme.

*censored.3.0*ING VOLTORB FLIP. GAMBLING WILL NEVER GO AWAY AND IF YOU THINK KIDS WILL HONESTLY PLAY THOSE THINGS DRY THEN YOU'RE ALL CRACKED IN THE HEAD. >:[

I dunno, you don't really have to use the touch screen still, but I've grown to love the touch screen controls regardless.

This game does allow for an either/or approach, but have you tried moving in the PC with the buttons? There's that little one second delay when moving around. It irks me a bit.

Can't say I have, I tend to use the touch screen controls for it. I enjoy it a lot more mainly because it's easier to work with.

+Nostalgic, and well worth the wait
+Stunning DS Graphics
+Long Gameplay
+Great re-play value
+Epic Soundtrack
-Voltorb Flip
-Pokewalker needs more features (C'mon Game Freak, you could have let us have eggs on our Pokewalker so we can hatch them via real life ;_;).
-Really easy (that is, until the later parts).

Overall, I'd give it a 9.5/10. It can't beat the classic G/S/C, but it sure does feel modernized.

I like how the Pokemon follows you its EPIC.
Isn't the word epic just so epic? I use it like an epic person should because it makes them epic. Isn't that just epic? Just by saying the word epic you become epic.
