About this product

Product Information

Nintendo's monster-battling franchise makes its Game Boy Advance debut with the simultaneous release of Pokemon: Ruby Version and Pokemon: Sapphire Version, which differ in the frequency of certain monster types. While gameplay closely follows the framework established in earlier titles in the series, a number of enhancements have been incorporated. The world in which players explore is entirely different, as are the strategies associated with the turn-based battles. Certain matches have players selecting two different Pokemon to fight their rival's two creatures, allowing for more choices in combat. <br><br>The setting for both versions is the region of Hoenn, a chain of islands featuring a variety of climates and terrain, including mountain areas, arid deserts, murky swamps, and more. A total of 15 cities are available to explore, each filled with local residents and fellow trainers who will challenge players to hone their battle skills. Players will be able to carry a party of six Pokemon at once, after first catching them in the wild, with others stored in boxes accessible from each city's personal computer network. Tools or machines can also be acquired to perform tasks such as chopping down trees, fishing, surfing, planting berries, smashing rocks, and even flying.<br><br>One hundred new monsters have been added into the mix, upping the total of catchable creatures to 200. Ensnared Pokemon are automatically catalogued within an upgraded Pokedex, whether it's the shark-like Sameheader or the pelican-inspired Pelipper, requiring players to learn their special abilities as they evolve into more powerful types. Backgrounds in the fight scenes are now depicted in different shades of color, and the backpack introduced in Pokemon: Gold and Silver has been replaced with a roomier utility belt to carry items found along the journey. Unlike previous games in the popular series, players are unable to transfer existing Pokemon from earlier titles on the Game Boy and Game Boy Color.

Advertised as OEM Authentic. Once received I Immediately noticed the Philips screws which Nintendo NEVER used for this. I opened the memory card and it was an absolute fake. I showed pictures of the inside of the card & It was shipped back for a refund. I would've left a neutral review giving them the benefit of the doubt but the seller opened a case saying it was damaged and not fake. The packaging had a small slit on the back & the card in was the exact same condition. Total Scammer, AVOID.

Soon after receiving the complaint from the buyer I promptly sent them an offer to open a return for the memory card.However they sent back a different memory card than the one I sent them.

buyer lying stating I sent back a different memory card. I sent back exactly what they sent me. After I informed them it was a fake, they blamed the person they bought it off of and they promptly took down all their "authentic" gamecube items from their store. Absolute scammer.

    Pokemon Sapphire

    Game looks great and authentic. Powered on to a dry internal battery which means clock didn't work in game, which wasn't advertised. Date code on battery says it was the original 2003 battery. Fortunately, I had a few new GBA game batteries lying around and soldered in a new one. Works great after a small bit of work, in game clock ticking along again.

    Small tubes-low volume of product

    Excellent product but these sample tubes are smaller than I thought they would be. I thought they would be good for travel, but I am finding the need to pack more than one due to the low volume of product in each tube.

  • A thoroughly enjoyable game for Pokemon fans

    The game is fun and builds onto the basic format of previous games in the Pokemon franchise. There are a ton of new pokemon to catch, places to explore, trainers to battle, and a bunch of interesting side quests to kill additional time. The game&amp;apos;s graphics and sound are updated to match the capacity of the Game Boy Advance. Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire have sold the most out of all games for the GBA and for good reason. My only personal lament is that the newer Pokemon games are designed to force die-hard fans to trade between all 4 of the third generation games (not counting Emerald) in order to &amp;quot;catch em all&amp;quot;, and it can be rather difficult to find people to trade with between all 4 cartridges, not to mention that some of the legendary Pokemon are only made ...

  • Good game, fun to play, but crashs on Nintendo DS

    The game is a fun retro experience but does crash on the DS system. My kids would like to see these titles released for the DS system. You can purchase this game and others at very affordable prices on Ebay but we were surprised that is was a game marketed for the Spanish market with Spanish prompters throughout the game. I would suggest asking the buyer if these are American releases before buying. We are still very happy with the purchase and enjoy the Sapphire Version. It is challenging and has more reading than the new Pokemon DS titles.

  • Pokemon Sapphire Version

    Another good game in the Pokemon series. It is a good follow-up from Silver and Gold and does well to re-establish and reboot the Pokemon universe for the GBA. The story and mini-quests are sufficient but the real appeal is in the battling and RPG elements. It's not a big advancement of the mechanics of a Pokemon game but the features that are included and added give the franchise a good face-lift.
