Still, it's the year that Nintendo's new hardware will finally be revealed (and hopefully released), so we're inclined to believe that it's going to be a good one.

This game is really fun I played it for a while and it was great!! the coolest feature of the game that i think is cool is the island where you can challenge the battle frontier! (I think I spelled frontier wrong).
I remember emulating this many times. This one is my favorite. Gameplay, music, Pokemon to catch there (as well as choosable starters) - every single piece of this is amazing to me.
