Pokémon: Smaragd-Edition

Pokemon Emerald is the third/upper version to Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire. I haven't played either Ruby or Sapphire yet but have played the remake Omega Ruby, so I can't really see how much it changed from the original two versions but could see how Omega Ruby changed from it, though it has been a long time since I had last played Omega Ruby. I find it interesting to play older Pokemon games to see how Pokemon as a whole has evolved. I find that Emerald could be frustrating or struggling at times. I had a hard time at the third gym (mainly because of the Magneton, of which is part steel type, which is the type that pretty much resists everything) and elite four (more because it seems like I'm a little under leveled at the time). I believe I had an easier time with both in Omega Ruby. As well, getting through Sky Pillar was extremely frustrating. Despite those challenges, it seems like a pretty good game. Only thing I really have to complain about is that Sky Pillar is too hard. I do like challenging stuff at times but still. As well, I have beaten the Elite Four and Champion not long ago and it doesn't seem like it puts me into much of a post game. Maybe tie any lose ends that you have not gotten to in the main game.

The game is the same as its previous sequels without anything new, the game also has a very simple story and nothing to compare to games like Mother or Chrono Trigger. The music in this game is very simple, it's generic battle music that's not interesting at all.

The graphics of the game are almost the same as those of the previous two games only in 32 bits and there is not much change compared to other sequels.

It is clear that at this point Nintendo only saw money in these games, even more than in the previous generation.

Simply an overrated game just like their previous two games. By ninten.
