>none of our old favourite bros, instead we got forced inferior clones until the postgame
>no freedom, instead you walk in a straight line all the way (literally Glorified Hallway - The Region)
>no soulful graphics, instead broken pixel noise
>no challenge whatsoever, instead it's way too easy (oh your Pokemon is weak against this Gym? here, have a gift Pokemon that is strong against the Gym leader)
>no team variety on the Gym Leaders or Elite Four, instead they are forced to use only 3 and 4 Pokemon each, respectively
>no cave puzzles, instead pointless 2x2 boulders that are just there to be pushed into a hole
>no story that makes any real sense, instead a convoluted mess
>Child A buys BW
>Child B goes over to his house/sees him on the playground
>"oh hey you got BW? cool is Blastoise in it? He's my favourite"
>"no dude, actually none of the old Pokemon are in it. No Pikachu or Raichu, no Charizard, no Pidgeot, nothing"
>"oh, wtf that's lame. Anyways wanna go play ball?"
