OR or AS?
Pretty simple question, which version did you purchase, and why? If you bought both, why?
|
I went out to purchase Y then was aiming for AS but the lady in the shop brought out OR so I ended up with that.
Quite happy with OR actually as I like Groudon quite a bit. |
I bought OR, I love the color more, I prefer Groudon and Team Magma.
|
I own both, I got back into pokemon because a friend wanted someone to play with. He owned Y and had preordered AS.
So I bought X and preordered OR. Recently I decided I wanted to replay the games, but I have a live dex on X and I use OR for breeding, so decided to go buy Y and AS so I can replay the games |
I got both versions, but Alpha Sapphire had the exclusives I liked better (and also I always tend to lean towards the "blue" version) so that's the one I play more.
|
I have both, but I prefer to AS because I like Kyogre/Team Aqua more, and at this point I'm further in the game with it. Though to be honest the games are pretty similar so it doesn't really make a difference which I play, because it's the same experience.
|
I got OR, because I'd gotten Ruby back in the day, and it's only logical to have them match up. Every time I'm on the eShop I debate whether or not to get AS. It'd be nice to play through the story again, but my OR is now my main game, so there's no chance of playing through the story without another game.
|
I went with Alpha Sapphire for two reasons. I had played the orignal Sapphire, not Ruby. I also liked Kyogre more than Groudon.
|
I got AS since I originally had Sapphire, and Kyogre is awesome. (Was planing to get OR soon, since I didn't get to play Ruby.)
|
I chose Alpha Sapphire since I went with Sapphire originally. I ended up getting Omega Ruby too, but my main game right now is AS.
|
I bought AS because all my friends got OR, simple as that.
|
I have purchased both because I wanted both. Good thing since I have two 3DSs and sent a mawile in the other. I love mawiles. They make the best bodyguards ever.
|
I have one! I don't have a need for the other; my brother has Omega Ruby and I have the original Ruby if I ever wanted to play it. I got Alpha Sapphire and I'm happy with it :)
|
I always buy both but more often than not one of them ends up being restart play fodder. Which one I pick to be my main game is always random.
Pokemon fan struggles... |
I bought both because of course I always get both games at some point. Omega Ruby was my main one, but I got a second copy of that so I could play through against Team Magma and Primal Groudon again, and I like its exclusives more.
|
I got Alpha Sapphire first because I love Team Aqua and Kyogre, their more fun and I love Archie tbh
|
i had played ruby when it first came out, this time i chose AS due to I'm more into water now so it was fun like both but just me lol
also in X Y i chose Y and wish i had chose X lol |
Since I started with Pokémon Sapphire, I choose Alpha Sapphire first, not to mention that I like Primal Kyogre a lot.
|
I went with Alpha Sapphire since I first played Sapphire. Also having pirates as the enemy team is more interesting than nerdy Team Magma, I think.
|
I bought 3 copies of the game on release day.
One copy of OR and AS for myself, and one copy of AS for my girlfriend (a beginner to pokemon, but she's really enjoying it). I bought both versions for myself because I like having a save file that I never erase. A file that I can return to to acquire post-game pokemon to trade to other games. As for preferring one version of the game over the other, I have no such preference. I mean...maybe I'd lean towards OR since I went with Ruby way back in the day for GBA. But really, I don't have a preference. |
Why not both? :3
Cause i dont have the money for that ._. so i chose AS only. |
I bought both so that my Pokemon game collection remains complete! But if I were to buy only one, I would have bought OR because Ruby was my first choice when I was younger because I thought Groudon was SUPER AWESOME when RS was first announced.
|
I bought OR as I played ruby first but I usually end up with both. Also I'd choose that nerdy Team Magma lot over the pirates any day.
|
Y, OR because they looked best to me when I looked them up on YouTube. Awesome games.
|
I intended to go with the colder colour from Pokemon X onwards, so it was Alpha Sapphire for me.
Archie justified my decision heh! |
