3rd Gen Was Emerald really necessary?

[~Fire Eagle~]

I think that Pokemon Emerald wasn't nessessary at all, but it's another remake of Pokemon Ruby and Pokemon Sapphire.

 

[The Fallen]

That's what they all really are... The third installments have a few differences with Platinum having the most.

Here's the full list of Ruby/Sapphire -> Emerald Changes.

Anyways, no, it's not necessary. Nothing was ever really "necessary" in Pokemon if you want to define it like that. Was it worth it? Yes, for me. The changes in the storyline were way cool. :B

thank you but now with platinum out I can experience the battle frontier I have always wanted to be part of.

I think it was necessary not the mention the battle frontier.

 

[Taemin]

Well, yeah.. even if Emerald wasn't all that different, there always has to be that third game in the series. xD;
Whether it's a good game, or not..

It had new additions, so why not?

Trust me, as someone who has played the game repeatedly (four times woohoo!) Its pretty damn challenging, more so than diamond and pearl (with exception to the elite four), I bought it about a year ago, still cannot stop playing it.

 

[The Fallen]

Whether it was necessary or not they knew it would bring in more money. So to them, yes. Though it may not necessary it was worth it.

I like emerald alot but unless your trying to get every pokemon in your pokedex for d/p/pl then i thinks its to late. or just get the rom :P

Emerald is pretty fun to play with. It has added twist and features that were not seen in R/S. So, I think it is worthy to be played. :)
