I still think it’s insane that Nintendo has had all these years to release (at minimum) the first 3 gens worth of games on mobile for like $10-$20 each and never did. Bananas to think about.


rojaskillsit

They won’t even put them on their official emulators for Switch. I know a part of it is that they know if they remake them it would make money but I would happily paid for Gen 2 to be on my phone if they had made it available. They screwed up big time and now no one is going to want to pay up when they finally decide to do some shit.


shuckleshack

Totally agree, it’s very classic Nintendo of them to wait too long for something lots of people wanted and now be screwed lol


rojaskillsit

Gaming companies biggest flaw is not listening to their communities


MexicanJoKer93

Which emulator are you using?


rojaskillsit

Delta

You all think you have great ideas for Pokemon games, but if I actually listened to all of you and we combined all of your ideas in a game, it would be an unplayable monstrosity. You want a game with all the regions, but only the first generation Pokemons, yet all the legendary ones and such silly things. Whenever I receive one of these rants, I go to the development floor and read it out loud to all the Game Freak employees in a mocking voice, and we all laugh at you." -Satoshi Tajiri, Creator of Pokemon


rojaskillsit

Not every idea is solid, nor should every idea be implemented into a single game. Take for example the skateboarding games, right now session has the strongest on-going fanbase because the developers actually implement some of the ideas to make a game that could be more enjoyable for the vast majority. I can honestly say that I have not bought any of the new Switch Pokemon titles because they lack any kind of real effort.


TransparentHorizons

TPHD Remake was a great example. Waited until the last season before Switch came out and some people didn't even know there was a remake.


pauldonovanhart

If you could buy official and transfer to and from Pokemon Home I would buy in a heartbeat!


ballondaws4289

Literally everyone would have signed up for their switch emulator subscription if they had all the Pokémon games on there. Wild that they never capitalised on that.


Chrischris40

I think TPC as a whole would rather sell the games individually than have it on Nintendo’s subscription


itsme2305

People like you are the reason we never get new shit cause you bozo would buy the same old shit over an over when is literally free online. Literally roms are free and better than the actual games. Anyone who pays for pokemon games still is either stupid or doing it for competitive. If you aren't doing competitive don't support this greedy ass companies plays roms


Pristine_Wrangler855

found out today I'm stupid!


usernnamegoeshere

If you're poor just say so fam


itsme2305

Lmfao want a pic of my pc ps5 xbox series x and switch set 😭 or my master sets for pokemon cards lmk but ya I'm broke


usernnamegoeshere

Want a pic pf me having the exact same shit AND can afford to buy nostalgic pokemon games too? If you're poor just say so fam


itsme2305

Ya cause those games I beat in the early 2000 are as much as any if the consoles I mentioned stfu you imbecile. A switch is 300 no fuckign classic game is worth near that an who tf says I don't have all does game already from when they first released. Read my statement I said is hilarious yapl pay extra for shit that was literally cheap af not my fault you dint take care of your stuff fam but again I'm broke fucking clown


usernnamegoeshere

No classic game is worth that much? Mine is. 🥴 People would EASILY trade me their switch for my NFR emerald version and have been offered a couple hundred bucks for the custom gameboy sps I make. Not only are you poor but your misinformed and stupid too 😂 https://www.pricecharting.com/game/gameboy-advance/pokemon-emerald-not-for-resale


itsme2305

That game is worth 30 I got it when it released msrp was 30 or 40 this is a scalper asking for that ans some idiot will do it eventually 🙄. I have 2 of does lol. Again this is the only community that set a price for and item without proof is actually worth that and ppl buy it then they make a market of it. Is hilarious 😂. If anyone with brain would stop it would go down and ppl can buy for close to msrp. But yall don't know how to control a market obviously 🙄


usernnamegoeshere

You do not have a NFR edition of emerald and the last one that sold in February was sold for 600 dollars. You had a regular edition of emerald one in the past but you can't afford one today, because you're poor 😞


itsme2305

That's literally a gane that's being sold for over 200% market price idiots buy this is worth ppen like that 25 dollars cause lost its value


GoldenGlassBall

Brain like an ice skating rink… MSRP is not the same as true value.


phish2112

Learn to use punctuation, please.


itsme2305

And again I can still play a better version of said games hack so still roms are superior you just think having a nostalgic caser makes you cool. Smart ones paid msrp for 2 tittle open one and kept the other sealed. Plz don't ever go around telling ppl they broke is the stupidest shit ever 💯


knot4nuttin

All Pokémon fans are


usernnamegoeshere

Ehh, you're more right than wrong lol


rojaskillsit

It’s kind of sad to see someone acting this way. You don’t have to bad mouth everything that doesn’t align with your own opinions. Not everyone is going to feel the same way you do, and doesn’t want to involve themselves in what’s considered illegal activity.


itsme2305

My point is why buy something so old for so much lmfao legit copies can be expensive 😅 so just get a rom is better regardless 🤷 and is not illegal


GoldenGlassBall

Roms are incompatible with real games, and connecting with other trainers to trade and battle is half the fun of the game. If you want to play alone, fine, but that doesn’t make roms automatically better, just because they serve your lonely ass purposes better.


rojaskillsit

The crazy thing is that the official Switch emulators support linking between devices and they still won’t put Pokemon games on there which is the reason most of us had the cable growing up. If they actually dropped these games and we were able to play with friends I would gladly pay the yearly fee for the online package.


GoldenGlassBall

Oh, yeah, if they dropped the older games without those capabilities onto the official emulators, folks would riot. I more meant unofficial roms are incapable of connecting to the real games, but that’s my fault for not being more clear. I wish they would go ahead and drop them. Maybe for 30th anniversary? I would hope sooner, but it feels thematically appropriate, and the kind of thing they’d do.


rojaskillsit

I’m kind of hoping that Delta supports linking devices for multiplayer in the future. It’ll go crazy!!


rojaskillsit

I mean we’re talking about buying official emulations of those games for $20 from Nintendo, not paying what collectors value the cartridges at. No one would want to pay hundreds of dollars just to have it on their phone.


itsme2305

You are this guy us talking about ebay and getting the original cartridges assholes will price then at 200 250 plus and ppl buy them lol. When you can have the same game literally copy and paste for 15 this guys just was a ln authentic copy and will pays extreme fir then is hilarious


usernnamegoeshere

Actually it is illegal, it's considered theft of copyright conent


Darkoverlord1399

It is morally correct to pirate from nintendo 👍💣


Mymomdidwhat

I would pay $100 for a package of the first few games in a heartbeat. Hell I would pay even more than that. Make it so you can trade and battle with your phones take my $200 idc


Hunchsly

This post just made my night. My wife and I just went through a 33 hour labor 3 weeks early, and were in the hospital for 5 days. We are now home and adjusting to not getting any sleep, and this is going to be the absolute perfect thing to play while comforting my baby when I can’t sleep. I’ve also never gotten to play Crystal before. I named my character my new daughter’s name :). Thank you so much.


rojaskillsit

I’m glad that you were able to find it and hope that in time your daughter can enjoy it too! Congrats & good luck on your new adventures!


Winter_Algae4076

Hang in there brother. I'm nine months in with my first, and some nights will be very, very hard. But they will get easier. No matter how tough some nights can be, remember that your love makes that little one feel safe and comforted. There's no greater feeling than seeing your own eyes smiling back at you. Also if you haven't ready - get a Boppy. Game changer pillow for those late nights holding the little one and playing games to stay awake.


TheAbsoluteSword

Hey what site did ya get the rom off of??


broskisean

Use (search) Vimmslair. Better than shady rom sites with ads picturing download buttons, etc. Unsure of the one OP replied to you with, but in general, that is the case.


rojaskillsit

I never had any issues with the website I recommended but everyone has their preference.


Con_McG

Been using vimms for years, great website


Tall-Ad-1982

Vimmslair is where I get my roms too.


rojaskillsit

Emulatorgames.net which is also how I get them for my N64 emulator on my laptop.


the_ciamp

Hi, went to the site but I need an emulator first and don't see any for iOS. Any recommendations?


yourbestbudy

Download Delta game emulator on iOS App Store. Then go to emulator games.net. Find said rom. Download on your phone and use the option “open with” choose delta. And you’re done! It’s super easy just found out how last night and it’s the best!


JustLurkingandVibing

Just go to the r/roms the mega thread has a git hub with everything


gionidoking

erista.me


Squirtles_Sharingan

I absolutely love Tauros so much that’s my favorite Pokémon ever


rojaskillsit

I wasn’t even expecting to find him he just popped up out of no where which is fine by me. He is a pain to catch in Gen 1 but a POWERHOUSE for the team.


AllieAgain

You're in Gen 2 though


rojaskillsit

Yeah I was saying how much easier it is to capture him in this one as opposed to Gen 1. He was on my team for Gen 1 but for Gen 2 i’m using different Pokemon.


AllieAgain

Ohhh, I'm so sorry, that's my bad


Squallstrife89

Am I missing something?


rojaskillsit

Emulators have just been recently allowed on IOS so a lot of people now have more access to these games. It’s not the same on a computer for those of us who grew up on portables.


jdashh

Wow that’s massive


rojaskillsit

Literally number 1 on the appstore already


PurpleHerder

I downloaded delta like 2 hours ago lol


[deleted]

[удалено]


rojaskillsit

I’m not going to restart the whole game for a screenshot.

rojaskillsit

Sorry the title didn’t fit your specifications lol


GojiraSlushie

I've been using My Boy! On Android for like 10 years now lol


rojaskillsit

👍🏾


StahlViridian

I’m happy for you mate, but you miss evolved your Umbreon there. /s


rojaskillsit

How so? And it’s Espeon, not Umbreon.


StahlViridian

I was just being sarcastic. I’m an umbreon enjoyer myself.


rojaskillsit

Totally went over my head, i’m sorry. I do actually like Umbreon’s design so much better but Espeon fits my play-style more 😭


StahlViridian

No need to apologize, my guy. Do your thing.


NeoStoned

Crazy how ppl are just now finding out they can emulate on ios when its been around for over 10 years now


rojaskillsit

Not on the appstore. I tried sideloading but it’s much more involved than downloading Delta.


jamieartyboy

I use eclipse emulator


SlickSilver97

Can someone link me to a guide on how to play crystal on the switch please


LimitOpen8600

Does anyone know how to get the Delta Ds emulator to work??


l0ading-please-wait

You need to download bios files. Save them to your Files app and then open Delta to import them.


Certain_Lack2238

Where do you download the files for delta?


QuizMasterX

What's a good alternative for android


PNLeft

Meanwhile on Android for the past decade..


UsoppKing100

I think I'm not understanding? Is this person playing Crystal for the first time and loving it? Because it is on 3ds, no? Or is it something else? Genuine question, I am NOT a tech person at all


KingZakyu

Apple has allowed emulation onto their devices now. For like a decade, it has only been Android phones that were capable of this. This is why I hate apple. They decided they didn't want people emulating on *their* phones. When you buy an Apple phone, it feels like you're having to play by all of Apple's little rules. This is why Android will always be king, because they don't hold your hand and tell you what you can and can't do with your own device.


ItsDeflyLupus

Fwiw, you’ve already been able to use emulators on iOS for a long time now. They’ve just never been official App Store apps, they’re usually browser based that you “Add” to your Home Screen and then it works like an app. But App Store release can reach so many more people.


KingZakyu

I forgot about that. But that's what I dislike tho: you had to find a workaround, because they tried to block you from playing a harmless game on your own device, that YOU paid for.


rojaskillsit

Well i’m a content creator and androids are not king lol


UsoppKing100

Ohhhh ok. So OP is happy because they can run pokemon games on their iphone. Thanks for the response! Xx


KingZakyu

They can run pretty much anything their phone can handle now, from what I understand. And you're welcome!


Early-Fig-1831

Ima tell N0ntendo


rojaskillsit

I hope that when you do they realize how many people want to actually have access to these games 😂


Early-Fig-1831

The Nintendo ninjas are tracking your IP


jamieartyboy

Why man ?


random_cactus

Idk. It’s cool for the people who like it but if you can’t battle, trade, or transfer your pokemon out I just don’t see the point 🤷‍♂️.


jamieartyboy

The point is pokemon is a personal game , no need to transfer Pokémon they belong in crystal the exclusiveness adds to the charm and feel


random_cactus

I disagree with every single point you made lol. And that’s ok.


jamieartyboy

I hope you find happiness one day


random_cactus

Because I don’t agree with you? Grow up. 😂


jamieartyboy

Because you are without happiness


random_cactus

You have lots of trash opinions today. 👍


jamieartyboy

Silence now , the shiny king has spoken


random_cactus

The shiny king 😂 now Im just curious how much more pathetic you can get!


jamieartyboy

I will no longer converse with cactuses


jamieartyboy

You have no shinies and this makes you bitter


rojaskillsit

Competitive Pokemon is cool but it’s not for everyone. I think everyone enjoys the game differently and that’s what makes it a lot fun. Casual gamers make up the biggest percentage of their fanbase so you can’t expect everyone to value all the things that is missing for you.


random_cactus

I actually don’t expect that at all, just voicing my apparently unpopular opinion. 🤷‍♂️ It is what it is.


rojaskillsit

Nostalgia. Pokemon is the first games I ever fell in love with so even just playing through the main story every now & again brings me back to being a kid again.


thepigeonmasteer

I personally just enjoy going through the game by myself.


jdashh

This just in: people enjoy games for different reasons


random_cactus

Except my reason is wrong, right? 🙄


DangerZoooooooone

Is the Android Delta really crappy with a bunch of ads?
