Greatest pokemon game brought back to life even better
To me gold and silver version were allready the best pokemon games and i was sad when i wasnt able to move my pokemon from those version to the ones that followed so as son as i learned about the remakes i was happy beyond anything

But wow nintendo outdid themselves with these remakes, not only they brought back to life these two clasiscs but they even imporved them with some features from the next gen games (the DS ones)

Overall this games is great but with all the new things you can do for breeding and battling over the net makes it even greater

Also the pokemon walker lets you take your pokemon virtualy everywhere =P

Fantastic remake
If you are even a minor Pokémon fan, you MUST have this game. With updated music, graphics, and battle sprites, as well as new areas to explore, this is probably the best Pokémon game ever made. The new touch screen menu is very helpful for quick access, but if you don't want to use the touch screen, you can always use the X button to bring it up.

It also has some of the hardest battles in any game (no spoilers but there is a tag battle in Dragon's Den that took me forever to complete). The Battle Frontier is also back, but it looks the same as the Platinum one, as well as having the same brains. Not a huge problem, though, since there's still tons to do.

Eusine is, like in Crystal, once again tied into the story, as well as Suicune, so it is kind of like also have a remake of Crystal as well. The remixes of all the 8-bit tracks are fantastic, and late into the game there is also an item that allows you to switch between the new music and the old music. There are also a few 3D cinematic cinemas that look great considering the limited capabilities of the DS's processor.

The Pokéwalker is a very nice bonus with the game, as it allows you to train your Pokémon while you're doing your everyday activities. It also allows you to get Pokémon with special moves that they normally would be unable to learn (Flying/Surfing Pikachu, anyone?).

Seriously, get this game. If not from Play-Asia, then at least get it when it is released where you live. You will not be disappointed. I guarantee it.

Just bought
I Just bought this game yesterday and can't wait for it release. Even though that the game is in Japanese, I have already played Pokemon Diamond in Japanese when it was first released. Very easy to understand and If you need help, they got plenty of websites with Faqs or strategy guides.

Awesome Remake
I just bought this game, I'm kinda worried that I won't understand anything.....I bought a English to Japanese just in case, from what I'm hearing the music is remade and buttons like X and Y aren't needed anymore.

Pokemon Soul Silver
Greatest Pokemon game yet. 5 out of 5 stars. It's a much better version of the old game and I enjoyed playing it very much.
