Nostalgy Cat

Yes you do, that's how you play
One pokemon attacks first then the next one attacks after and it repeats

one does not simply walk away from a chance to play pokemon

my sides, WHY?

Hang on a sec, let me take off my nostalgia glasses here...
Okay, as a series Pokemon is great, but you can pretty much pick up any one of the games and get the same basic experience. Legend of Zelda, also great but the problem with it is that if you don't know what you're doing the games can be pretty dragged out, but once you get one of the games down it's basically the same line of thinking in all of them. My recommendation: Pick up the cheapest pokemon game you could get for the most recent handheld you have. Legend of zelda, if you want a good sample box you can pick up the collectors disc on amazon for 50$~ (Expensive, I know but buying the games individually costs more, comes with majoras mask, ocarina of time, the original and zelda 2) and wind waker for anywhere from 10-40$, if not less, from most game stores. Both are for gamecube which you can play on either a gamecube (obviously) or on an older wii. There's also emulators but I personally don't recommend them because anyone I've tried has had horrible framerate issues with the zelda games and I'm on a pretty bad-ass machine here.

No, I grew up poor as shit. I miss out on a lot of jokes on here....

I'm an 80's kid so I grew up with every system and Pokemon and Zelda were only ok in the span of things, however, most of funnyjunk is filled with people 16-18 years old making the over whelming majority voice scream that 1994-1998 games were all the best.

Probably because 90's iterations are when the games started to become widely available. You probably also remember back when games like Pacman, Donkey Kong and Mario Bros. were strictly arcade games.

I always played pokemon, but never got to play zelda.

I've got this bookmarked www.playr.org/play/the_legend_of_zelda_-_oracle_of_seasons/1122#play
Can find pokemon on that site I think

I've played Pokémon but never actually got into them (first few generations were fun, then everything went downhill from there IMO). Zelda's a great series, but pretty much every game follows the same formula (find & enter dungeon, acquire new item/weapon/tool/gadget, proceed to use new item/weapon/tool/gadget to clear dungeon, repeat about 6 times, final boss, the end). It works, so no complaints there, it's just hard to play Zelda games back to back because they feel too similar in my opinion (each game in the series is great though, I just lose interest if I try to sit through too many at once)

I am 19 and played my first Zelda game this month. Twilight Princess. Extremely good game, I now have Spirit Tracks and plan on getting a few more. Good series. Pokemon has always been good.

The glitches are part of the experience IMO

It's like halo.

I liked Pokemon yellow

ehh, not for me. but hey, do what you like

every game has glitches, at least in pokemon you won't encounter any of these unless you're intentionally trying.

Most modern games are solid and have minimal glitches. 1st gen is infested with glitches. That's why I play firered/leafgreen to get the nostalgia experience

Item dupes, walking through walls, screen freezups, pokemon dupes and in-game rom editing is solid and minimal glitches? News to me.

But like I said before "at least in pokemon you won't encounter any of these unless you're intentionally trying" and that applies to ALL pokemon games, not just the old ones.

sapphire was my main bitch

What about yellow?

any game in gen1. But since there were no Yellow remakes, i gotta deal with it

What glitches?

Mew glitches, walking into other cities glitches, and everything here bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/List_of_glitches_in_Generation_I

Yeah but they aren't really game breaking glitches.The game is very playable and the games were far from terrible. For their time they were fantastic.

For their time yes, but it's 2013.

agreed

But those glitches are fun. Also, getting a flying khankaskhan through the missingno glitch was beyond awesome.

every fucking time

So fucking true I laughed at this cause as soon as I saw that "It" I got so majorly pissed off.

And that is where this beauty comes in.

But you can't throw the SP out a window and have it survive. Meanwhile, there's a gameboy that survived a bombing. Sure, it's burnt to hell, but it still works. Nothing can top that. And playing on a newer gameboy just isn't the same.

while i'm sure being able to "survive" an explosion is something a lot of kids look for in their handhelds, it doesn't actually compare with the colors and backlights the newer one gives.

why are people so hell-bent on denying it's for nostalgic reasons? there's nothing wrong with that. in fact, i agree the older ones do feel better for those reasons.

not sure if anyone on this sight is nostalgic for the original gameboy anymore. every post ive seen is about a gameboy color.

Personally all I want is a Gameboy Micro
Backlight, portable, and to me at least, had the best library of games.

I use nostalgiafag the same way I use a word like amerifag, even though I'm American.

20*, and I've owned every model of Gameboy throughout my lifetime but the Gameboy Light.
What I'm saying is common sense. It's the same as saying my new PC is better than the one I owned a decade ago.

Kill her.

My two cousins kept putting(forcing) my DS cartridges into my DS was so annoying but they were too young to understand, luckily nothing was broken

sorry meant to say 'the wrong way round'

Unforgivable.

Fuck PSP games

Look at this

That kid reminds me of an asshole that lived in my old neighborhood... he threw a fucking chunk of ice at my face. ಠ_ಠ

i fking reck u

this site is full of nostalgia fags anyways the cats probably had little to do with it

I'm giving you a thumbs up for that Soul Eater picture.

Cats are cute and fuzzy, gives the comic a little charm

Plus Kingdom Hearts.

I forked over some money for the Legend of Zelda themed 3DS. It comes with OoT HD.
God it was such a good investment. That thing is really well made. Nintendo outdid themselves with that thing.

HD? 3D dude.

I call it that because it is supposed to be an HD remake of OoT. Plus, I don't use the 3D part for games like that, because it gives me eye strain, so I forget sometimes.

It is supposed to be a remake of OoT with better graphics. Smoother edges, better lighting and whatnot. But not a better resolution. The 3DS top screen has a resolution output of 800 x 240. HD is either 1280×720 or 1920×1080.

I see.
Thanks for the new info.

Yeah, but it rapes the shit out of my eyes.

I have a LG Thrill smartphone, 3D without the glasses. Cool shit right? Wrong, the 3D on mine is a fucking gimmick to hide the fact that the phone in general is horrible. /rant. Although I do enjoy the 3DS, shit's baller yo.

the only person so far I noticed who doesn't like it, AT ALL, is Zero Punctuation, but then again he doesn't like anything Nintendo anyway so whatever (except Paper Mario, my favorite game no less :D)

Wait, what? The save files erase over time? HOW LONG DO MY POKEMON HAVE TO LIVE?

I don't think Red and Blue have the internal battery issues, only Gold, Silver, and Crystal do because of their clock or whatever.

If you can, move them to the sanctuary know as Pokemon Stadium.

My Pokemon Red still works after all these years. Alakazam, Charizard, Dragonite, Pidgeot, Arcanine, Omastar. All my babies are still alive.

...Oh fuck no, mah goddamn Alakazam is gone! One of the only times i've traded with others in Pokemón because i wanted him so badly i finally got myself together and asked someone for a trade-retrade

HAHA fuck you mines still going strong,

"Outgrew Pokemon" HAH! As if that's EVER going to happen.

About 6 years ago I stopped playing it, but then I played it again about a month ago as I still had my old game boy advanced, I couldn't stop playing.

My PSP can also do the same. The joys of CFW.
