That awful moment when you turn on your Crystal game for the first time in 4 years only to find out your 150 hr game is corrupt/unable to save:
So please please get the new battery if you are going to buy C/G/S!
Amazingly my yellow is still working
Thanks! I'm leaning towards emerald since my silver should be somewhere at my parents (going home for Easter) or my house and I think that's fairly similar to crystal? Also, it'd be nice to have a game that doesn't stick out from the bottom of my SP. 😛 Although it seems to run a little more expensive too. Do you think the GBA ones need to come with a new battery?
The GBA games, while they do have batteries, do not store the save file on it. Instead, they use a flash-based memory system. The batteries can still run dry, but it's much less dangerous in those games since the save isn't on it (I'm pretty sure the only function of the battery in these games is to keep track of time, and I actually don't even think that FireRed or LeafGreen have a battery at all because there are no time-based events). If I remember correctly, there's only a very few specific time-based events -- berry growing is one of the ones that comes to mind -- that will no longer function if the internal battery is dead. But you will still be able to play and save the game normally otherwise. If you can find a copy of Ruby, Sapphire, or Emerald without a new battery for cheaper, I'd just go ahead and go for it IMO.

Yes x1000 to Fire Emblem. It's a tactical game with feels.
Definitely Smash, there is also Animal Crossing (the kind of game that you can put hundreds of hours into...over time!)
I definitely say YES to Fire Emblem! Fates was released not too long ago, so if you want to jump in with that, it'll be easy to find.
I still need to get a Mystery Dungeon game, I've never played any other than demos and a bit of the old GBA ones on ROM (but as people have mentioned, playing on an actual handheld is so much better!)
This isn't *exactly* a game, but the Phoenix Wright anime just started and squeeeeeeeeeee.....
Details, please? If it's free to watch, I want to see it. It's an awesome game series (though I admit, I've only played 1st game and Apollo Justice. I need to download the collection sometime.)
Would you say it's worth buying the Wii U for?
Can I claim all of the above? 😀
I used to think that pretty much the only game I would want on Wii U was Smash. But now that we have one, I'm in need of so many other games too! (though at the moment we only have a few actual wiiU games, the rest are old Wii. Still haven't started original Twilight Princess)
Bumping for Sun/Moon hype
Personally, I like the seal more. Grass-owl's still cool - Fly-capable and very cute. I'm not a fan of the cat, though - it looks kind of boring right now.
I was definitely most excited for the owl at first watch (even though I'm not much of a grass starter person, the only other time I chose that was for Snivy), but I always have to see the final evolutions of them all before anything is set in stone. Last time in XY I was torn between froakie and fennekin but ended up on froakie because I loved greninja.
No, I haven't had it for PC! I've heard good things about the PC game..but I'm pretty much a bum this summer and am looking for games. I've always been a WoW girl, but the lack of subscription fees for ESO is reaaaaally looking good to me right now. I'll probably get it because it's only $20 at my local Gamestop...not a huge chunk of change.
