Convince me to buy this OR/AS.

I have a 3DS that I picked up a few months ago. I have not played X/Y, and the last generation I got really into was RSE.

I have some friends who say X/Y are really great, but would you all suggest OR/AS over it?

ORAS is funner and is a big improvement over what X/Y had to offer. Also please remember that it's FUCKING HOENN

It would be easier to convince you not to buy ORAS. If you played Emerald don't bother. Get X/Y instead because it's at least a different region instead of one you already played.

X/Y sucks.

ORAS is Ruby & Sapphire updated to gen 6 formula with some new features. It doesn't have battle frontier btw.

You may want to give Gen 5 a go, B/W2 is god tier.

Has a more engrossing region from the days of old when GF gave a shit. That's really all the reason you need. I can not stand being in Kalos; the music, the people, the region, the eternal day.
Also secret bases are a nice addition.

Do it man. Buying new pokemon games after SoulSIlver as I couldn't afford a 3DS and thought Black & White looked beyond stupid (I still generally detest most Gen 5 mons) but I managed to source up a good deal on a friends unused 3DS for $100 and bought Omega Ruby. I was skeptical as fuck as I was still playing Gen IV games but these new games are really fun. I don't know whether they are objectively good but they are very enjoyable, and that's what games are supposed to be to me.

Do not regret spending my money at all.

Don't play any of the gen 6 games, they both suck. If you liked Emerald you would hate ORAS. If you want to play the game you should pirate it on a gateway flashcart which can play 3DS games rather than waste your money.

If you don't give a shit about no Battle Frontier, get ORAS. Seeing as you already know the region it might make you nostalgic, and everyone's playing ORAS you may as well join in.

Would definitely suggest ORAS over XY but both are worth playing imo. ORAS if you can only pick one though.

+Obligatory updates such as special/physical split.
+Update in music and visuals
+Revamped contests
+Revamped Secret Bases
+DexNav makes scouting for Pokemon easier.
+You can now fly to specific routes which goes hand in hand with growing berries and finding bases.
+Rival has more impact and doesn't disappear half way through the game.
+Villains are more memorable.
+Surfing isn't an issue anymore since the encounter rate was shot down dramatically.

-Piss poor frame rate
-Limited post game content
-Pokemon distribution is pretty lackluster
-Gym Leaders still have their inferior r/s teams
-Delta Episode mainly consists of running back and forth between areas you've already visited and doesn't get interesting until the very end.

If you enjoyed the originals then you'll like these fine. They're far from perfect, but as long as you don't expect to get blown away you'll find a very enjoyable albeit flawed game. I'd say pick it up over X/Y only because of the inevitable third game that will really make those games obsolete.

In all seriousness though, gen 5 is way better in most regards. I'd say forget about these games and try out those. Especially B/W2.
