Product Description

From the Manufacturer

PokŽmon FireRed and PokŽmon LeafGreen are set in Kanto, the region where PokŽmon first took root and exploded into a major phenomenon, and the latest titles stuff in tons of exciting new features. One thing's for certain: when PokŽmon FireRed and LeafGreen get into Trainers' hands, PokŽmon fans stand to become the coolest, most connected gaming community in the world.

Features

• Return to the world of Kanto originally explored in PokŽmon Red and PokŽmon Blue, where the adventure is brought to life better than ever with dazzling GBA graphics and dozens of surprising new features.
• Experience the original duo's plot, prove yourself in the region's PokŽmon League while single-handedly bringing down Team Rocket, plus pursue major new storylines that will add unexpected twists.
• Once you prove yourself, you'll be able to bring the PokŽmon you caught from PokŽmon FireRed and PokŽmon LeafGreen into PokŽmon Ruby, PokŽmon Sapphire and PokŽmon Colosseum!
• Every PokŽmon FireRed and PokŽmon LeafGreen Game Pak comes with a GBA Wireless Adapter--trade, battle and connect with your fellow Trainers wire-free!
• When you get your copy of PokŽmon FireRed or LeafGreen, you'll also nab Nintendo's cutting-edge peripheral: the Game Boy Advance Wireless Adapter. Upcoming Nintendo titles will feature Wireless Adapter gameplay in a variety of brilliant ways, but PokŽmon FireRed and LeafGreen will be the first to venture into the wireless gaming realm on the GBA. The PokŽmon community will be brought together like never before.
• When used with the Wireless Adapter, PokŽmon FireRed and LeafGreen will make you the hub of a thriving wireless community of PokŽmon players. As other wireless Trainers come within reach of your adapter's range, you'll be able to communicate and play games together. As players leave your range, they'll vanish from your wireless network. It's an unbelievably cool way to tap into the fantastic power of the PokŽmon gaming community.
• Much of the wireless gaming in PokŽmon FireRed and LeafGreen is concentrated in the Kanto region's PokŽmon Centers, where you can join up to 39 other wireless Trainers in the Union Room for a free-for-all, or connect with just two or three in the Direct Corner.

Product Description

Pokemon Leaf Green is a remakes of the classic original Pokemon game, with all-new challenges and options. New content, graphics and features will impress young and older players as they relive the adventure. With its support for the new Game Boy Advance wireless adapter, you'll connect to other players and meet up in the "union room" -- chat with players, battle or trade Pokemon.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pokemon Green: Remake but best, June 13, 2004

By 

Billy King (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Pokemon LeafGreen with Wireless Adaptor (Video Game)

Rumors have been spread that this game, when it comes out, will be boreing since its a remake of the original versions Red, Blue, and Green, but its not. The game takes place in Kanto and is like the other four, but seven new islands called the Rainbow Islands, have been added so you can collect them all. Plus, this game has all the pokemon, but you have to trade to get them all. I have played it in both english and Japenese ( people have translated it) and it is a quite decent game. Plus you can get National Dex so all 386 pokemon can be displayed once you have 60 pokemon and challenge the Elite Four twice with more powers and techniques the seond time. Its a lot of fun and it has the best graphics ever and it talks and has chat!!! I cant wait till September 9th!!! Im buying mine now and its gonna be great!!!! Trust Me!!! I have played it!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Not just for kids!, December 4, 2004

= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Pokemon LeafGreen with Wireless Adaptor (Video Game)

Quickly, this is basically Pokemon Blue for GameBoy remade with better graphics and tons of new options. Why it's green this time around, I don't know... if you like "oldschool" Pokemon, you know what to expect.

Also quickly, I'm 21 and I love Pokemon. It's not just for kids! The strategy and the quality of the game are excellent, and it's sad to see the game typecast as being "just for kids".

Simply, you play a character whose name and gender are selectable. From the start, you're given a Pokemon, a healing Potion, and thrust into a world of battles and collecting. Your goal: to catch at least one of every Pokemon in the world, and to become the best trainer ever. To get there, you'll have to master the battle system, which is turns out to be kind of like a chess and RPG fusion. Your Pokemons' levels primarily affect their success in battle, but having the correct "type" of Pokemon also matters (a rock pokemon is weak against grass or water types, but virtually immune to lightning or fire types). It's simple to get in to, addictive to play, and can provide endless enjoyment as you link up with friends to battle or trade (you can only get all the available Pokemon by trading with other trainers).

For those familiar with Pokemon, exactly what's new?
-Several (~21) exclusive Pokemon.
-Links with FireRed, along with Sapphire and Ruby if you have Pokemon Colosseum. When you complete LeafGreen, you unlock certain items that make this game completely compatible with all the Link features of these other titles.
-Now in color, with new animations to match.
-New battles, including the four-Pokemon battles from recent titles where each side sends out two Pokemon at once.

Go into the Future with Pokémon FireRed and Pokémon LeafGreen!

Category: RPG
Players: up to 4 players
Release Date: Sep 2004
Multiplayer: Multi-Pak Publisher: Nintendo
Developer: Nintendo/Creatures Inc./GAME FREAK Inc.

September 7 will change everything. Pokémon technology will make its next quantum leap. We've seen the future, and it's all about Pokémon FireRed and Pokémon LeafGreen.

The new games are set in Kanto, the region where Pokémon first took root and exploded into a major phenomenon, and the latest titles stuff in tons of exciting new features. One thing's for certain: when Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen get into Trainers' hands, Pokémon fans stand to become the coolest, most connected gaming community in the world.

Features:

* Cut the cords! The newest Pokémon adventure lets players battle, trade, collect and more, all without the need for connecting cables. Players simply attach the Game Boy Advance Wireless Adapter, which comes bundled with both versions, to their Game Boy Advance systems and communicate directly with one another. When visiting a special area (the Union Room), connected players appear directly on one another's screens.
* Pokémon chit-chat! Players who gather in a Union Room can send text messages directly to each other. Up to 40 people can share the environment and up to five people can buddy up at once to join a chat session. Trainers can select pre-set messages to send, or type in messages of their own creation. They can also exchange game challenges, talk battle strategy or just shoot the breeze.
* More than 100 Pokémon are out there for players to discover. Pokémon FireRed and Pokémon LeafGreen are compatible with Pokémon Ruby, Pokémon Sapphire and Pokémon Colosseum. Pokémon fans can access, trade and battle the Pokémon from their favorite games -- all in one place.
* Experience expanded gameplay with new adventures, new challenges to face and new territory to explore.

Pokémon is the coming-of-age story of an 11-year-old boy or girl who is given his or her first Pokémon and sets off on a quest to become the best Trainer in the world -- an ultimate Trainer. Enter the region of Kanto, where you start your journey in your home town of Pallet Town, aided only by your first Pokémon and your Pokédex, given to you by Professor Oak.

From there you travel the region, raising and training your Pokémon for battle. You compete against other Trainers at the Pokémon Gyms and earn badges toward your goal. The Pokémon you collect come in all shapes and sizes, from many different types with different strengths and weaknesses -- Fire, Water, Grass, Psychic, Electric and more.

Bottom Line:

Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen will revolutionize the Pokémon universe when they hit store shelves on September 9, 2004. Stay tuned to nintendo.com for more information on these titles as the fall gaming season draws near!
