That said, HG/SS is polished and picks up the Suicine story from Crystal. So it's hard for me to decide. Ah and downside? G/S never got the Battle Tower. Only Crystal did |
HGSS is superior in literally every way as far as I'm concerned.

HGSS are better being updated remakes but replaying the original G/S has made me remember how good they must have been for their time. People love to crap on them but i will always love the original gen 2. Especally since crystal got me into the pokemon series.

HG/SS are better but if you don't already have them, it's over $40 to get them used today.
So having the original on the VC is really cool. Despite owning Soul Silver, I loaded up my GBC copy of Silver for s***s and giggles. I was very upset to find the battery died in it so I couldn't save my game. I really really REALLY enjoyed playing through Blue last year, despite its limitations, damn those PC boxes suck. I also didn't have to worry about the battery dying and losing my save while I was playing. I'm gonna download Gold after I'm done with Metroid. But both the originals and remakes have their place. It definitely makes more sense to have say Blue and Fire Red instead of Heart Gold and Soul Silver. They really are different experiences.
Sometimes it's what you don't do that makes you who you are.

I like HG/SS a lot but I love G/S/C. I realized that after playing Gold again. I just like how they look and sound so much more. Also, there's no Lyra. I really don't like having the opposite gender character that you don't pick being part of the story.

That's kinda BS. Not really. The original GS are unrealized potential more then anything. Like the ideas Gamefreak had were grand and amazing, but they really fell flat in executing them. The remakes do a lot to help fix this and are honestly held back by having to stay as true to originals as they do. Like Johto remains a super tiny region simply because they couldn't drastically alter the map from the original.

G/S was a mixed bag of great ideas and kinda iffy ones, with is common for the second game in a franchise. The good ideas were well implemented, but like any idea, there was potential to add more to it. I think people that feel this way are looking at the games in comparison to modern releases. |
waiting on crystal before i buy. crystal > silver > gold.

I didn't like how slow HG/SS play. It's a molasses slog. Still everything else is better.

And you come away disappointed? "Let's add 100 new Pokemon! And than make most of the areas and trainers only use Pokemon from Gen. 1!" "Let's have two regions and make each a fraction of the size of Gen 1's!" "Let's bring back Kanto, but only as a hollow shell of it's former self!" Etc.

"Let's add 100 new Pokemon! And than make most of the areas and trainers only use Pokemon from Gen. 1!" So? Nothing wrong with gen 1 Pokemon returning. "Let's have two regions and make each a fraction of the size of Gen 1's!" That didn't really happen. "Let's bring back Kanto" The but it not really needed. Bring back the region from the last game is more than they need to do. Complaining about it just seem entitled. |

So? Nothing wrong with gen 1 Pokemon returning. But there's everything wrong with them making up the majority of the Pokemon you encounter. Why does Morty have two Haunters, but no Misdreavus. Why doesn't Bugsy use Spinarak, etc. Sacred_Arfaid posted... That didn't really happen. Yes, it did? Johto and Gen 2 Kanto are both tiny compared to Gen 1 Kanto with less to do and explore. Sacred_Arfaid posted... Complaining about it just seem entitled. The addition of Kanto had a negative effect on the new region of Johto, resulting in it being the smallest region in the franchise. If Johto is gonna suffer for its inclusion, Kanto shouldbe good.

Why doesn't Bugsy use Spinarak, etc. Not an issue as far as I'm concerned. I get to use them, so it's not a problem. I'd rather than than for the older ones to be largely abandoned, but I guess that can't be helped with the Pokemon count getting to absurd levels. IcyWind14 posted... The addition of Kanto had a negative effect on the new region of Johto No it didn't. |

Why is Johto the smallest region in the series then? Why does it matter? The game was more than long enough to be a full game in everyone else's eyes. It didn't even seem shorter than the first game, so I'm not seeing a valid reason to complain about Gen 2's main story. |

I like HG/SS a lot but I love G/S/C. I just like how they look and sound so much more. I agree. The older versions have that tint that looks more mature. HGSS just look so cartoony and Platinumy. Could be nostalgia at play though. On top of that they ruined a lot of music in the remakes, like Dark Cave and Lake of Rage.

Most people expect sequels to be bigger and better than their predecessors, not shorter and more lack luster. Sacred_Arfaid posted... It didn't even seem shorter than the first game Yes, it did. Sacred_Arfaid posted... so I'm not seeing a valid reason to complain about Gen 2's main story. How about it being shorter than the Gen. 1's? That thing you're in denial about? You need Gen 2's butchering of Kanto to make it compete with Gen 1 lengthwise and the fact adding a second region only makes it compete with the campaign of the first game is terrible.

I'll readily admit that HgSs are better in just about every way but the VC release of GS has real value since your work in those games can transfer to Gen 7 and beyond. Some moves and abilities on certain Pokemon will be exclusively available from the original games on VC.
