>no online play
>no home compatibility at launch
why even bother???
>>
>$20
god damn man
>>
>>58941086
$20 isn’t astronomical but for a game that’s so readily available for free, with no additional features, I’d pay maybe $5 for the pleasure
>>
>>58941093
I’d pay $20 if it was a physical release but we can’t own shit nowadays I guess
>>
what were they thinking? 20$ for digital, have not added anything new... people can just play it on anything these days without paying 20$.

At least make it free for NSO, nintendo u suck
>>
>>58941086
>why even bother???
Cattle will buy the games anyway
>>
>>58941136
>have not added anything new
Even worse, PEGI rating is low enough that EU players will have the game corner cucked in some way, so they're outright REMOVING things from the game.
>>

That's less than I thought it was going to be.

>no home compatibility at launch
why does home compatibility matter
>>
>>58941174
because why should we even get something nice at launch? its because were good little goys and will buy it anyway
>>
>>58941086
It should be $10 at most. I have a FireRed ROM easily playable on my decade old iPhone 7.
>>
>>58941176
you posted 21 words but somehow didn't say anything
why does home compatibility matter
>>
>>58941174
That is like the entire point of having this game on console in the first place
>>
>>58941199
i thought the point of having the game on console was to play it
what value does home compatibility add to it
>>
>>58941201
ìts something you cant do with an emulator? its the only measly incentive to buy it and were not even getting it at launch?
>>
>>58941201
So you can bring the event pokémon over to home???? Literally why else would I buy this when I could play this for free in a 30 second google search?
>>
Omg better preorder to secure a downloadable copy in case they run out
>>
>>58941217
If anyone pre-orders a rom they need to be castrated
>>
>>58941210
"something you can't do" isn't enough of an incentive to convince me it's valuable
what is the POINT of home compatibility here?

>>58941212
what event pokemon? a ho-oh and lugia you can get in sv? and a deoxys you can get in oras?
and there's no guarantee these events will even be enabled
>>
>>58941225
literally what do you want me to say you pedantic retard
>>
No events is crazy
Even crystal had it unlocked and was 10 on the 3ds
>>
>>58941232
maybe convince me on why people want compatibility so much? it makes sense in newer games because you could bring your old mons up to participate in pvp and get ribbons and such, but acting like it's such a huge loss for it to not be enabled by default here is mind boggling
>>
>>58941240
its NOT a huge loss i just find it retarded we cant have it at launch, especially considering theres really no other incentive to buy it
>>
Guys, DON'T LAUGH!
There are people who will spend 20 dollars on FireRed and LeafGreen in 2026.
DONT LAUGH.

>>58941212
We NEVER get home compatibility at launch for ANY game, Game Freak want kids to experience the game as-is, before getting to trade in their lv. 100 charizard to stomp the game. I don't doubt it will come in time, but I'm not surprised they didn't let you swap in your ribbonmaster 'Zard from the off. They didn't let me swap in my XY Delphox to L: Z-A so I can fix her 0 Sp. Attk IV and use her to rape online yet..
>>

>>
>>58941240
This plus the fact LGPE are on switch and the kanto mons are in nearly every game anyways plus kanto has no ribbons!
>>
>>58941274
sure maybe not for mainline releases which DOES make sense, makes it so we cant transfer all our level 100 pokemon in and piss through the dex instantly, but this is a fucking port of a 20+ year old gba game
>>
>>58941225
>there's no guarantee these events will even be enabled
I'd hazard a guess at them being deliberately kept quiet for a reveal on Pokémon day, which is why there's no mention of any of them yet. Remember, it's still the 30th anniversary and they've still got a big celebration of it planned.

Yeah, because there's more than just poors here friend. I suggest going to a brown discord if you want to be in the majority of people who won't buy thing because they're too poor to afford cost of living, let alone luxuries.
>>
>>58941274
I sincerely doubt Home support will go 2-way anyway. Mons that have ribbons gained after gen 3 would cause undefined behavior if sent back, so I doubt Gamefreak would enable that functionality.

It'll probably be one-way trips to Home and that's it.
>>
>>58941280
The question has already been answered 20 times in this thread alone, because that would be the ONLY reason to buy it over just emulating it for free

Sorry about the lobotomy you had to go through as a child no one should suffer that pain
>>
>>58941278
ANY fucking releases, you braindead fucking bastard. And FRLG IS fucking mainline, it's the Gen 1 remake. Ergo, it gets the same treatment as the others - home compat held off until kids have gotten sufficient time to play the game to completion. Not that other anon, but WHY do these games "need" home compat from the off? Or rather, why do (You) need the games to have compat on launch? I don't need it until post-game endgame, when I need to free up space for shiny hunting.
>>
>>58941240
1. because as you implied yourself, catching a scyther in FRLG and trading it into home to bring it with you on a journey across multiple games is fucking cool and currently you need a good amount of old hardware in order to do that
2. having more accessibility like the option to get a deoxys here instead of a 3ds game or ho-oh/lugia instead of subjecting yourself to SV is never a bad thing and something you should be pushing for as a self respecting consumer
3. its an expectation they have established. "Pokémon HOME is a cloud service for Nintendo Switch and compatible mobile devices designed as a place where all Pokémon can gather." .theres 0 reason they cant put in a tiny modicum of effort as the biggest franchise in the world to make it so ALL pokemon can gather. (i am a software engineer and have worked on the gen 3 C decomps. its really not that difficult)
why are you being such a difficult sperg

>because that would be the ONLY reason to buy it over just emulating it for free
this is such a non-answer i'm impressed you managed to actually type it out
do you fucking THINK about what home functionality would entail? do you think you'd be able to bring pokemon whose base data has been changed by 22 years of updates back to gen 3? holy fucking retard
>>
>>58941297
They didn't, they still built the game around gambling enough to get restricted still.
They're just not going to lose any their intended core audience over it.
>>
>>58941296
this is the only sufficient answer to my question in this entire thread
thank you for actually putting in the effort and not just saying nothing like everyone else.

>>58941300
You first, you're the monkey sperging out wondering why MAINLINE pokémon games are being treated as MAINLINE pokémon games and arbitrarily trying to argue a scenario where they wouldn't be MAINLINE games, to get something no MAINLINE game has gotten to-date in Home compat from the get-go. Ignoring of course if they weren't MAINLINE games, they wouldn't even fucking see Home. Go die in a fire, save the world your retardation, because they're not letting you use your "ribbonmaster" cuck.

Well the file size is 24 MB larger than it should be, so unless that's 24 MB of emulator there may be some patching in there.

>implying
This anon couldn't be fucked playing old games. Mainly because I passed most of them by during their release periods already as uninteresting and don't need to with Pokémon, when I can pull out an old system and plug any the games that matter to me into said system to play them. Continue sperging out about being poor though. The fact you commented on the price, knowing the fanbase will buy them (because most didn't actually exist for their release) and knowing how insignificant $20 to the grand scheme of things, especially for a luxury entertainment item is telling.

Fast forwarding is not "quality of life". It is enabling the depreciation of attention spans.

Bought all them new, but again I played my games during the eras and ddin't care for the boxes, I knew I wasn't selling them (not being poor and needing to keep things near-mint for resale value also helped) And the table looks like that, as it's 50+ years old and my extended family was close. So it got heavy use, resulting in its well-worn/loved condition. I thought browns were supposed to be like Irish Catholics and have fuckloads of kids and 7 generations living in the one 5 roomed house?

As a complete aside to your arguement with the other anon, one of the absolute funniest things I've seen at International Championshpis like EUIC, is that with their displays of Pokémon games and boxes, even TPC can't keep their shit in good condition. Their RB and GS boxes are in tatters. Every year I've been for the last 4, I've laughed at the display.

You'd think the actual company itself would keep shit in good condition for their archives, but even they didn't bother.

LG and Ruby. Bought them used back then, otherwise they'd be like new.

Holy shit at the trailer I jokingly said that they would be greedy enough to charge $20 for each game, then I go to the e-shop and the motherfuckers are actually charging that.... And for games that don't even have mystery gift AND e-reader compatibility?

By having owned the game, collected the event item, but not actually gone to encounter the pokémon. But you got told that the last time I saw you ask this like a sperg povvo and had a melty.

So you're saying there's no way to do it in 2026 on the most recent version? Meaning it's functionally non existent. Nice argument hope it holds up to scrutiny unless you're implying deoxys will also be limited time
>>
>>58941637
In the original releases yeah, you could do that. You could also scan your file from FRLG/RSE and take on Mt. Battle with your team and character and bring back rare items to your handheld game's save as a prize. I did that with my LeafGreen save and brought back a Choice Band as a prize.

In the virtual rereleases it's highly unlikely.

Yes, you could also trade with the story mode saves.

What part of "If you don't want to miss explicit FOMO content, best actually sack up and buy da ting and play it to redeem the FOMO event item" did you misunderstand? How did you get the member's card after the event went away while waiting for Gen 5's release? Oh yeah, you couldn't officially, just like now. Boo-hoo. Stop being poor and getting arsey at people online, because you flagrantly ignore past precedent for how extra gift distributions and special case scenario pokémon are handed out, just because you *think* you're entitled to it as "it's an old game".

It's so weird to me when someone says x is overpriced that the response is YOU'RE POOR.
It's such a bootlick low IQ take. It says more about your financials if you think someone calling $20 overpriced is caused by them not being able to spend $20.
FYI I make 6 figures, have 6 figures in my bank, own my second home and I think it's overpriced you poor dumb retard. I suggest you use selfdestruct.

Genuinely, how do they get away with this? You would think they would need to price these lower to be competitive with widespread emulation, but I guess the "buying it anyway" crowd is big enough to justify this retardation.

It's overpriced as fuck and these are far from my favorite titles, but I haven't played them in forever so if they add event tickets I'll get FR
>>
>>58941340
Meaning?
>>
>>58941681
Well yes anon. Games are a luxury entertainment option, just as streaming subs or going to the cinema/theatre or a sports game of any description (unless you're parental support).
And if some arsewipe IS complaining about paying 20 quid for the convenience of playing an expired game on a new system with new software support, then that's entirely their issue with financials. If they don't have money to pay for a luxury item, it's not anyone's fault but themselves that they can't work out 20 quid from their paycheck, student loan or borrowing it off mammy. They were somehow able to afford the buy-in of a system and that's FAR more expensive. or there's always the emulator angle, switch has one IIRC. Can use that. But no, best bitch about how unable you are, because others can pay 20 quid for a game you want.
>>
On one hand, buying this means maybe they'll continue doing this and be less lazy about it and have event pokemon accessable on the switch
On the other hand if you wanted to put in the effort you could easily just pkhex all this to the different games on emulator but that would require owning a 3ds to transfer it to switch
Really this release is just for nostalgia purchases and people already invested into home but don't own years of old hardware and carts
>>
>>58941689
Meaning it's not Kanto to them and they don't want to lean on it for the 30th. There's also the fact it isn't even RG-based but cribbing off Yellow, which itself was an anime crib and that anime version's dead and buried.
>>
>>58941692
Not him, but I think your issue is in the assumption that the ability to pay is equal to the willingness to pay. I could drop four figures for FRLG today, but I would never agree to do so. There's nothing wrong with the market providing negative feedback to a service provider.
>>
Why the fuck does this not just come with NSO?

>>
>>58941706
Because Nintendo and TPC know idiots will buy this shit. Let it be a nice reminder that the masses are fucking morons.
>>
>>58941705
And you seem to think the unwillingness to pay means everyone and anyone should ascribe to that. I thought €10 was overpriced for the gen 1 shit on VC, but I still bought it regardless. 20 is too much, but at the same point it's not in the grand scheme of things. Just because someone's not also throwing a strop over the price doesn't mean they love it. Just means they're not retarded enough to fight a battle over peanuts.
>>
>>58941706
Nintendo don't share NSO revenue, that's all for their own pot. And Game Freak aren't giving games away for free and absolutely not when kids proved in 2004 they'd buy a remake of an old game for full price of a new game.

This. And it's always the fairweather millennials that never stuck with the franchise after Pokémania as well. I remember everyone my age (11-13) dipping out of Pokémon when GSC came out and they're the types who will say "nothing past the original 151 exists", meanwhile I've bought every mainline game, collected cards, and watched the anime for most of the years since.

Yet these genwunner niggers think that the franchise should still pander to them. Sadly, it does, and it's never enough.

This would be way better if it was an upgraded port, not unlike a decomp/recomp.

>Game in higher resolution (can be done on emulator and is only noticeable in some minor graphical effects, the trailer footage is in OG resolution)
>Restored, uncompressed audio
>Any gameplay enhancement or quality of life whatsoever
>Online functionality for multiplayer
>One version with a language selector at the start of the game (or even a FR/LG version selector)

They didn't even bother and just slapped a GBA rom on an emulator, so instead we get
>Basic GBA color correction
>HOME compatibility coming soon™
>Maybe, just maybe, compatibility with Colosseum/XD in NSO
>Maybe the ability to change the emulator controls (they'd have to program a menu just for that so I doubt it)
>Every language is its own separate release, if you are a supreme paypig you can pay 240$ to get every version in every language. It even says on the EU eshop "This is the (language) version. Choose your preferred version carefully"
>Local multiplayer only, fuck you

I believe the reason they're separating every language release is because they don't want you changing language mid-playthrough since some Pokémon have different names between languages which causes some internal inconsistencies in the .sav data, and fixing that would require some actual work they certainly aren't willing to do.
And even if they did the selecting your language at start thing, having all languages in a single package would mean six different roms coexisting in the same game but only one being used ever, and apart from being inefficient as fuck from a technical standpoint that's a big no-no for the greedy fucks at TPCi which want you to pay full price for your save files,
as shown when they released the GB games on the 3DS and made a custom version of the Virtual Console emulator without savestate support.

>Maybe, just maybe, compatibility with Colosseum/XD in NSO

Oh you poor poor optimistic fuck. Especially with the latter. My man they are selling each language as a separate version and you unironically say "maybe" to having the ability to change controls. That's about as laughable as the pigs buying this thinking its some grand gotcha for those of us who can think with our heads.

Don't get me wrong anon, I don't think this release is a positive thing, far from it actually. Even if they did all the stuff I listed as "positives" in my post I still wouldn't think it's worth existing, because I've played the original game to death already and this doesn't offer literally anything new, it's obvious it's just an incredibly lazy cashgrab.

Lmao these lying niggers, I can switch the language in fucking Mario Advance games without an issue.

That's too much effort for GF though.

Now that i think, EA did something similar to this with sims 1+2, an "anniversary product" that is literally a re-release of a 20+ year old game that will either make you seethe or engage once again.

I've been saying this for months, but ESRB and other ratings boards consider past ratings and context when deciding how to rate re-issues. The most ported game, Doom, has content that violates modern guidelines but ports of the old game get grandfathered in.

It's not a blanket exception, as we can see the game got a ratings bump here, but context weighs more than content when it comes to re-issuing decades old games. The same leniency doesn't apply to remakes or revisions (BDSP). It also helps when the originals are older and significantly predate policy changes. There's a reason HGSS was retooled to include Voltorb Flip in 2010, but the reissues of GSC in 2017-2018 had slot machines.

I get the doomer mentality. I hate it when old games get fucked up. But it's worth remembering, these things don't just work in one direction. It was just a few years ago that Nintendo petitioned the German government to remove Goldeneye from its harmful media list, effectively "unbanning" the game. If Nintendo wants a certain rating in a certain market, they can grease the wheel and make it happen

No online is absolutely fucking insane especially since the NSO GBA app ALREADY HAS ONLINE. Completely inexcusable. If you're going to charge me money for the roms instead of giving them to me for free on the GBA app you at least need to match the features of the official free emulator. I understand not allowing rewind and savestates but you have to have online, and the NSO screen filter would be nice too.

No home support at launch is also just unacceptable. Every Pokemon game should launch with home support DAY 1 period. Who knows how long they're gonna make us wait either, still waiting to take all of my shit out of Legends ZA. It would almost excuse there not being online trades if you could at least transfer to home and you can trade there(although not really, you can only trade on the Home mobile app so that would be insanely tedious) but they can't even manage that. This release is genuinely LESS than the bare minimum and it's completely unacceptable. I really would have bought this if it had online and day 1 home support, hell I maybe even would've been willing to pay more than the $20 they're asking for, but since it doesn't I'm just gonna stick to emulators.

These were more passable at the time because they were only $10 each and none of the other 3DS Virtual Console games had online. Actually, no Virtual Console games even had local multiplayer, they went out of their way to implement and include that for these releases. The GBA NSO app already has online multiplayer so there's no excuse.

Because the entire point of Pokemon games is collecting Pokemon. How am I supposed to collect Pokemon if I can't even connect the game to my collection?

Why are people expecting anything new for a port? It's not a remake or remaster and even those can't get fixes these days unless it's to prevent cloning

That's highly unlikely to happen.
