Description
The Story Continues. Pokémon Emerald is storming onto Game Boy Advance with a vengeance. The third adventure to take place in the Hoenn region, Pokémon Emerald features all-new areas and exciting new plot twists. The story begins when your character, a young aspiring Pokémon Trainer, moves to Littleroot Town. Crammed amid a truckload of boxes, our hero enters the foreign neighborhood eager to explore. Shortly into your journey a challenge arises and you must choose from three Pokémon -- Torchic, Mudkip or Treecko -- and begin a quest to become the world's best Pokémon Trainer. Veterans of Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire will recognize a lot of the locations in Pokémon Emerald, but many elements within the game have changed, the most exciting of which is the addition of the Battle Frontier. The locations and frequency of Pokémon are different, and you may even encounter a new Gym Leader in your journeys.

Strengths: -New Content -Includes storylines from both Ruby and Sapphire -New Animations
Weakness: -Still too similar to Ruby/Sapphire that owners of those games may pass and leave this to the hardcore Pokemon players
I bought this for my younger brother last month and he cannot put it down since. Kids, teens, and adults all follow the Pokemon craze and Emerald just brings the fans more of what the love. This is the third version of this Pokemon generation, similar to the Yellow version and Crystal version of the past. Emerald takes Ruby and Sapphire and adds to it, so it will not disappoint fans of the...
Strengths: A larger amount of catchable Pokemon, several new challenges
Weakness: Many of the best additions are not available until after beating the main game
Pokemon Emerald is a remake of the Ruby/Sapphire games for GBA, with some new additions such as an extended Battle Frontier and the ability to replay gym battles. Anyone who missed the Ruby and Sapphire games should definitely pick this one up. For long-time players of this series, Emerald has some new tricks, but may be too familiar to those looking for the next big change in Pokemon
Strengths: All the great upgrades of Ruby/Saphire (Secret bases, running, gender selection) but with bonuses geared towards the hardcore. There is even a whole new area to explore with unique badge challenges
Weakness: It's just an upgrade of Ruby/Saphire, not a brand new game. If you already played Ruby/Saphire you can pass on this unless you are really into training. It's geared for that.
I love pokemon, and I'm quite fond of the Ruby/Saphire versions. So this Upgrade is great for me. Of course, if I wasn't such a pokemon nut, it would be silly to get it. But I am and this game was tailor made for us nuts in mind. It's geared for breeding and training the best pokemon. It also provides tough challenges for your super pokemon as well, in a new area, to boot! I have a soft spot for...
Strengths: Pokeman, familiar gameplay
Weakness: Similar to previous games
I bought this for my son since he spent countless hours playing the Pokemon Ruby. It's very similar to the previous game with a few enhancement. There's the natural draw because it is a Pokemon game but it doesn't seem to pack enough differences to really stand out from the previous version. The graphics and features don't compare very well to most of the games being released, but he loves the...
Strengths: Good storylines.
Weakness: Kinda similar to Sapphire and ruby.
It is a good game to play. Spending a lot of time to finish this game. The graphic of this game is good. I recommend this game to whoever like to play pokemon game.
Strengths: Tons of pokemon to collect, green cart, same great gameplay
Weakness: same as ruby and sapphire
This is a pretty good game. It is pretty much the same as ruby and sapphire. There are tons of pokemon to collect, trade, and train. There are tons of trainers to beat. The green cart is awesome as well. Overall, pretty good game.
Strengths: gameboy advance
it's a very good game i like the game realy much -i love the game!!!! -and the game i so interesting for me and its realy hard to win but its a cool game -buy the game you will never hate the game you will love the game for its a hard game there are 18 badges in the game so its hard to come to the end of the game!!!!
Strengths: same enjoyable gameplay that has made pokemon as popular as it is; all the updates made for Ruby/Sapphire, as well as some new features
Weakness: not very different than Ruby/Sapphire; graphics not that impressive
This is a fun game, is a pretty good length, has a great deal of replay value, and has a substantial number of updates when compared to the gameboy and gameboy color games. The graphics are better than the games prior to Ruby/Sapphire, but I don't think they are improved at all from Ruby/Sapphire. The graphics are not great - but then, they never have been (the original games were actually kind...
Strengths: Replay value, link up play, Battle Frontier
Weakness: Same style pokemon game as before
This game is Pokemon: Emerald, and comes after all of the other Game Boy Pokemon games. It uses the same formula and adds a new feature or two. There is a new place in this game called the Battle Frontier, it is a place at the end of the game to battle against the toughest trainers. This game features a long single player story, and also of course you can link up with a link cable or wirelessly...

The first Pokémon games hit the U.S. back in 1998. Since that time, there have ten games released in the regular series . If you want to get really technical, you can count the Japanese version of Pokémon Blue, which was slightly different than the U.S. one (which was called Pokémon Green in Japan. Now with the release of Pokémon Emerald, that brings the total of real Pokémon games up to an...

More Pokemon goodness
Strengths: Wider variety of Pokemon; addictive gameplay; familiar interface
Weakness: nothing new gameplay wise
Pokemon are one of the most successful portable gaming franchises period. If you get past the stigma of Pokemon affliated with younger gamers, the RPG elements are actually pretty addictive to even adult gamers. This time, Pokemon Emerald builds upon the previous Pokemon titles by adding in more reclusive Pokemon characters, old and new. You don't need a gameshark to "cheat" your way to unlocking...
