    HGSS has the same stupid mechanic of showing Egg Pokemon's OT as "Day Care Couple" that Black has....

    Worldwide, the four Virtual Console titles – Pokémon Red, Green, Blue and Pikachu – have been downloaded more than 1.5 million times. More than half of these downloads came from the American market. Since the start of the calendar year, Pokémon has been the subject of much attention in America, and sales are showing a favorable trend. Although these are downloadable software titles, download codes sold through retail stores have been a high proportion of sales in Japan. We believe that we have successfully created a chance to appeal to the nostalgia of consumers who played these titles when they first came out.

    Hah, just picked up Pokemon XD. Never touched this one before. IIRC, you play as a bad guy in this one? It's from that era of TROUBLED, DARK PROTAGONISTS from early 2000s, and you're an ex Team Whatever guy with a robot arm?

    It any good?

    Oh brilliant

    I dunno tho, dark and edgy Pokemon doesn't seem like a great mix. Was mostly just curious, and it was crazy cheap...

    fine Pokemon Picross, you made me put ten bucks in my wallet and spend four of it on Picrites.

    ...I now find myself enjoying this game much more.

    No that's Colosseum, the prequel. In this one you play as generic Saturday morning shounen protagonist that also happens to have a similar device as Colosseum's protagonist. Unfortunately he's not remotely as interesting as Colosseum's protagonist.

    Weird that they're just giving out a regular old Zygarde, which you can just catch in X & Y.

    I wish there was a way to turn on GBC color in the virtual console titles of Pokemon. That would give me the greatest sense of nostalgia. Just doesn't do it for me on black/white or the green screen.

    pokemon yellow does display the muted colour pallette, but it won't be as great as you remember. Each town is a different colour, each pokemon has kind of colour. That's about it.

    The 3DS is probably not powerful enough for that... </sarcasm>
    It's amazing how much better emulators can be. GB emulators let you pick original GREEN gb colors, GBC colors, or choose any other pallet. Not to mention scaling, cheats, speed control, so on, so forth.

    Yeah I read about that. But I wish Blue and Red had that as well. Luckily I am two steps away from my GB collection and a DS Lite handy for nostalgia pokemon times. A few extra steps but I really would've loved to have everything in one handheld.

    Shoot, was gonna stop by Gamestop after work and it completely slipped my mind.

    They didn't run out of Mew until halfway through the month in February, and Darkrai is way less popular, so I am probably fine. But still...

    Is the darkrai distribution one of those code card things or something that I can get by connecting to their WiFi while enjoying a meal from the restaurant across the street from gamestop?

    People on reddit are suggesting that Gamestop has the ability to print new Darkrai Codes this time around. Ask them at the register and if they are out of cards they can print extra codes on a receipt, supposedly.

    Haven't gotten my legendary bird email yet. I just checked and all my email stuff is set up correctly, too. Hoping they are sent out in waves.

    I could go for one. I won't really be available for trades until tomorrow though.

    Still no email but I do have my Darkrai codes. The store is only giving out 2 per customer this time around, so I will see if I can make multiple trips.
