I need to find that "Problems with Gen 1" picture for this thread. Seriously, who honestly believes with such GLARING flaws that the original gen 1 games are superior in every way to all other Pokemon games? It's completely mind baffling to think people can be this stupid.

Makes me remember that gen 1 was the best generation in all of Pokemon. Goddamn, all the hours I spent enjoying my Blue and later Yellow as a 7 year old. Shit was beyond cash. Cemented my love of the series forever.

And you know what I thought of gen 1's problems?

Cool opinion bro.

I judge each game by the immersion while playing and how I felt playing it. I've played my copy of Blue at least 10 times since I got it. I've completed the Pokedex twice. No other Pokemon game, from then to now, has invoked such a powerful emotional response. Some have come close (Ruby, SS, Colosseum), but not quite the same.

Plus the original 151 are just genuinely a fantastic set of Pokemon, with the next 100 a close second. I don't care how advanced the gameplay mechanics are or how many features exist in the game. If the Pokemon are, on average, terrible, then it's hard to enjoy the game.

If that's how you feel then you should be loving the fuck out of Gen 5 faggot. So many great Pokemon there.

The original 151 didn't have fantastic Pokemon. You got duds like Muk, Poliwraith and Ponyta.

Makes me feel glad I'll never replay any R/B/G/Y games.
On the other hand, it makes me sad I'll never be able to play Pokemon Brown without cringing at the shit R/B/G/Y gameplay.

I guarantee if you were your current age back when RBY came out who wouldn't be praising them this much. Stop riding the nostalgia train and join the rest of is back here in reality. They were shit games and the only reason they have so much "immersion" is because you have a pair of nostalgia goggles fused to your head.

I can still play RBY to this day and enjoy it. But I also think that the remakes are drastically better and if you're wanting to play Kanto for the first time Fire Red/Leaf Green is definitely the way to do it.

It's really frustrating sometimes playing the stripped down original Red now but if you played it when it was first released like I did then you're going to love the originals forever. Most of the haters are just people who weren't there to experience it so they'll never understand.

Yeah, no.

I can't critique fifth gen too much, as I haven't played any of the games, but I did sit down and look at all of the new Unova Pokemon and I was pretty disappointed. There are several lines that are just plain horrible or uninspired. The legendaries (of which there a shit ton) don't have that much appeal design-wise. Even the starters are... meh. Serperior doesn't look too bad.

Not to say that all of them are terrible. I said on average. Fifth gen had real winners with Hydreigon, Volcarona, Scolipede, Archeops, Zoroark, Galvantula, Haxorus, and Braviary. But the rest... just not really attention-grabbing or likable.

This isn't exclusive to fifth gen though. I just got done playing Platinum and half my team is non-Sinnoh.

I remember being 12 years old playing Red thinking that it was the best game I've ever played. I fucking played that shit for hours on end. I never once noticed the problems with the games. No one did. No one really cared if they did anyways. You have to realize when these games were made and with what technology the games were made with. It was pretty damn primitive.

>Are the games good?
No

>Were they fun at the time?
Abso-fuckin'-lutely
