So, I just recently picked up my brother's old game boy after seeing Pokemon blue version stuffed in it, and became addicted once again. Since I have last played the series there are a ton of new Pokemon I don't know (which obviously I'm not a huge fan of) as well as a ton of cool features. Just when I was trying to decide if I wanted to buy a new game, my brother came home with the FireRed version. I checked it out, and was very impressed. It's the same version of the game that I used to love when I was younger, with a bunch of small improvements and much improved graphics. After playing this, I was inclined to pick up a copy of the LeafGreen so we could play together and trade and whatnot.
Somehow, I ended up purchasing a DS Lite (found out the new DSi doesn't have the capability to play GBA games). I got a Mario game, which is a blast with great graphics, but I think I really need a little Pokemon back in my life (lol). I'm just curious, as a believer in the old school versions, do you guys think I would be more entertained picking up the LeafGreen or just getting the new Platinum version? Keep in mind I've never played the gold/silver or any of the other colors, and as such I don't know any of the characters or new pokemon.
Please give your opinion as well as some reasons why you like the games. I really appreciate any and all input.
Thanks
