Obviously, Pokémon still has a large fan base, seeing as how this is currently the second most pre-ordered game, LeafGreen is the fourth, and Colosseum was the first back when it was released.

I have played the Japanese version of FireRed, and it is amazing. The graphics look beautiful, the sound is wonderfully redone, and the wireless adapter is one of the most brilliant GBA accessories I've seen. Tons of improvements over the Red and Blue versions.

Also, it will be fully compatible with all the existing third-generation Pokémon games (Ruby, Sapphire, Box, and Colosseum). I am looking forward to it's release in the US, and I strongly encourage everyone to take a look at this game.

I have to say, I (...)love pokemon. Most kids my age don't like Pokemon and think its for babies. ITS NOT. I love all the pokemon games. My first was Pokemon RED. I like Pokemon Fire red and i play it everyday. The only thing that i dont like About it is the wirless thing. It Doesnt go that far. Also, i can Never find anyone in the union room. I wish they made a new wireless adapter that could go about 100 or 125 feet through walls. That Would be awesome. Overall, I love this game, if you (...) are looking for an awesome game, i suggest this one.

And The Pokemon Generation Goes on and on......

Pokemon Fire Red/Leaf Green are probably the best Pokemon games ever made. They combine new elements with the old Pokemon, the new graphics with the old game play. I am not much of a Pokemon fan, but the games always amazed me.

You start by picking a Pokemon (there are Charmander, Squirtle, and Bulbasaur to chose from). Then you begin on your original quest to catch 'em all, and beat Team Rocket.

The gameplay is great, new music, better battle graphics, longer storyline, ect. However, the game is basically the same as the original Red/Blue with the added GBA elements and it may be a little hard to start a game you've already played and beaten, over again. Because of this, the game is played mostly to unlock the elements only available after you beat the game.

For example, after you have beaten all 8 gyms, an additional 9 islands will appear. After you beat Team Rocket you will be able to trade from Fire Red/Leaf Green to Ruby/Sapphire thus unlocking Deoxys.

Also in this game, are a lot of little things that make gamers jump for joy. The wireless adaptor, using Bluetooth technology, can let gamers verse eachother from 33 feet away through walls. You can now verse up to 64 other players! Thats right. 64. Also important, if you stop playing for awhile, is the addition of game playback. It lets you watch what you were doing before you shut the game off. You can even save text so you know what someone said that was important. The bike makes a ringing noise (but it gets annoying after awhile). There are hundreds of invisible, hidden rare items scattered throughout the region. The original 386 Pokemon will all be cath-able. You can trade Pokemon from Fire Red/Leaf Green to Colleseum. And all of the Shadow Pokemon in Colleseum to Fire Red/Leaf Green.

Suggestions: I suggest starting with bulbasaur, as it will easily win the first few gyms. I also suggest buying a strategy guide, as you probably wouldn't find every thing without it. I finally suggest buying the game through Amazon, as buying it anywhere else woud be very embarrassing.

Overall, the game is great, but I still don't like thinking about how I've already beaten this game and it's not worth playing. It's extremely addictive, I spend hours fumbling through dungeons, so prepare to invest a lot of time beating it. (too bad it came out after school starts)!

ENJOY!!!!!!!!

A awesome game worth buying!!!

I got 2 play FireRed at walmart (they only had FireRed to try) and it was asome with the graphics and the sounds. i love how they used the old and new versions to combine and make the altimate game. The only thing i didnt get to try out was the wireless adapter becuze it hadnt been sold yet and plus there was only one FireRed in the store. (...)i still love playing the pokemon gameboy games. U can nevr be to old to play pokemon.

Some people don't even know the half of this game !!!!!!!!!!

Ok here's how it is with these new games. I mean I know it does get a little boring when you're doing everything over again but it's worth it. I went to this website and I found out after you beat the pokemon league you get to go to Nine other different islands!!! and on the last island you get a chance to catch the newest pokemon Deyoxys!!! So to those idiots who call us "Pokemaniacs" crazy, now you can tell them what they're missing out on! (...) ( (Hope this helped!)

Pokemon Firered Rocks

This game rocks its the best pokemon version ever it has a new save feature where when you turn it off it tells you what you did before you saved it. Its almost just like the first one acept the towns look a little different and your rival doesn't look the same as before and the music isn't the same ether but nintendo and pokemon never keep the original music so thats the way that goes. but that doesn't matter because the game rocks and
I give it five stars and it's worth the 40 or at toysrus 30 because it comes with a wireless adapter witch nintendo will be useing as a link cable for all the up coming games so it's fun and if you played the first version then you will have a lot of
memorys so get this game!.
