I always liked the Mystery Dungeon series but you need to wait for X and Y.... this is just a launch title for Pokemon. It's not as bad as Pokemon Dash but this isn't like Red/Blue rescue team.

I've got to admit, I have never played the original one on the GameCube, but I did buy this and man... I regret not playing the older one to get some nostalgia! This game is amazing. The music, graphics, gameplay, everything. Deserves a 9.7 from me for sure.
