What Is Your Normal Play Time Per Day?
 
So The Title Says It All.I Think I Play My Platinum About 15 Hours A Day Or Close To That.Please Also Don't Forget To Vote.I Stopped It At 18 Hours Per Day Due To No One Can Do More Then 18 Hours A Day Enless They Don't Sleep.

That really depends on the game.
RBY is usually around 20-30h, because I'm usually abusing Spacebar a lot.
GSC is often over 100h, just because Red often requires a ton of grinding.
RSE is a lot less, usually 10-15h. Why? Because they can only be played at like 1/10th of the speed you can play the older generations with, so I spend less time running into walls.
FRLG is similar, but if I go for the second Pokemon league victory, it might take quite a while more.
DPPt are horrible, I usually need 30h and can only play at 150% speed (yeah, it says 200, but most of the time it isn't so...)

Edit: Dammit, I misread the OP. Wait, 15 HOURS PER DAY? Wow, and I thought I was playing excessively sometimes...
Well, again: it depends. Sometimes I play 5 hours a day and don't get bored, sometimes I play only like 10 minutes, sometimes I don't play at all.

Hyena July 23rd, 2010 10:00 AM

Hmm. My files usually have about three hours a day. Platinum is more though.


Christopher July 23rd, 2010 11:40 AM

I'd say about 5-7 hours a day not consecutively but spaced throughout the day.

This thread belongs in General Pokemon Gaming, my friend.

Well, my playtime right after E4 is around 20-25 hours, by the time I hardly ever play the game is around 300 hours

The question is how many hours do you play pokemon per day not ure played time on the game.

Eeohnex July 23rd, 2010 12:15 PM

I usually spend around 15-30 minutes a day playing my Soul Silver. Barely touch my DSi XL anymore.

redsaber5859 July 23rd, 2010 12:17 PM

About one hour a day, any more than that and you prob. Don't have a life

Dam That Is Not Much At All.I Think Since I Got Platinum The Least Amount Of Time I Have Played In A Day Is 9-10 Hours.

You spend more than half your day playing Pokemon?

I miss those days.

I can't vote in the actual poll, since the length of time I play isn't up there. I only play maybe ten minutes a day. Just a little bit to make sure my Pearl game is still living. Some days I wish I could play longer, but... IDK.

empty streets July 23rd, 2010 3:02 PM

I think I play about 3 hours a day now since I have much free time. Summer boredome, ya know.

Morgnarok July 23rd, 2010 4:32 PM

Daily Bump,Is it me or does it seem no one plays pokemon much...

UltimaSilva July 23rd, 2010 5:05 PM

I can play for a long time. Especially if I don't sleep. I probably play 4-5h a day and sometimes 15+ on other days.

Good,finally meet some one like me kinda lol

Cilerba July 23rd, 2010 6:42 PM

When I first got my Japanese copy of Soul Silver, I played all day, and beat it in two days :P
Now, before you say I have no life, I have an excuse: I was sick, lol.

Once I got my english Soul Silver, I played the car ride home (which was about an hour) and then I stopped. I never ended up completing the Kanto region before I started a new game again :P

Now, I spend most of my time doing everything else but playing my DS.
It's not one of the things I keep in mind, so I tend to forget to play.
Occasionally I'll pick it up, catch a few Pokémon, walk around the Johto region looking at my beautiful Smeargle, and then I shut it off.

Xaldyn July 23rd, 2010 6:59 PM

Unfortunately, I've beaten pokemon games so many times that I don't play very often anymore. But it's always on my mind. Whenever my mind strays it usually goes towards pokemon constantly. I don't find very much adventure left to the games now. :(

Chellychu July 23rd, 2010 8:15 PM

It depends, usually when i'm in the process of beating the game I can play for 3+ hours a day. xD
But when i'm finished with the story I might play 30 minutes- 1 hour.

Sydian July 23rd, 2010 10:13 PM

Depends on when I wake up, when I go to sleep, and where I am in the game. But on a good day with no school and nothing else to do, maybe about 8 hours, though not really consistently. Probably a good bit of breaks in there.

Timbjerr July 23rd, 2010 11:06 PM

Anywhere from 2-3 hours, but it could be less or more depending on how much free time I have during the day. >_<

Hatsuharu July 23rd, 2010 11:30 PM

3 hours a day because my friend walks over every day with her Heart Gold and wants me to play with her.

Morgnarok July 24th, 2010 4:33 AM

Well its summer,i am in the 11th grade.So,I normally played this summer so far from 8am-10pm.Est time zone.

Now i do take a few minute breaks here and there for food,drinks and bathroom.

When school goes back in ill have school 8am-12pm Since ill be 11th i get half a day kinda.So ill prob play 1pm-10pm

So when school goes back in ill only have 9 hours.I know i have NO LIFE but i could care less.

I hate kids as it is so many are disrespectful but thats a whole other thing and going off topic so i won't get on that.

I wish i had that amount of free time to do anything!!

Just now I'm putting in about 1hr for Platinum and 2hrs for HG. Depends though. Hardly played yesterday due to work ¬.¬

myrrhman July 24th, 2010 7:47 AM

The time that I actually play the game isn't all that much, but I also spend time formatting teams, picking out new challenges to beat, and stuff like that. So I think I just put 2 hours of actual game playing.

Aether★ July 24th, 2010 8:17 AM

I'm using my laptop pretty rarely now, because of my "July-summer work" now, So it's way below 1h per day, but in August I'm planning to play PMD EoS all time. Now I have only time in weekends, and usually in free time I'm just browsing the internet, not playing much, but it depends of the game.
