About this product

Product Information

Nintendo's monster-battling franchise makes its Game Boy Advance debut with the simultaneous release of Pokemon: Ruby Version and Pokemon: Sapphire Version, which differ in the frequency of certain monster types. While gameplay closely follows the framework established in earlier titles in the series, a number of enhancements have been incorporated. The world in which players explore is entirely different, as are the strategies associated with the turn-based battles. Certain matches have players selecting two different Pokemon to fight their rival's two creatures, allowing for more choices in combat. <br><br>The setting for both versions is the region of Hoenn, a chain of islands featuring a variety of climates and terrain, including mountain areas, arid deserts, murky swamps, and more. A total of 15 cities are available to explore, each filled with local residents and fellow trainers who will challenge players to hone their battle skills. Players will be able to carry a party of six Pokemon at once, after first catching them in the wild, with others stored in boxes accessible from each city's personal computer network. Tools or machines can also be acquired to perform tasks such as chopping down trees, fishing, surfing, planting berries, smashing rocks, and even flying.<br><br>One hundred new monsters have been added into the mix, upping the total of catchable creatures to 200. Ensnared Pokemon are automatically catalogued within an upgraded Pokedex, whether it's the shark-like Sameheader or the pelican-inspired Pelipper, requiring players to learn their special abilities as they evolve into more powerful types. Backgrounds in the fight scenes are now depicted in different shades of color, and the backpack introduced in Pokemon: Gold and Silver has been replaced with a roomier utility belt to carry items found along the journey. Unlike previous games in the popular series, players are unable to transfer existing Pokemon from earlier titles on the Game Boy and Game Boy Color.

    This seller is excellent. Item was better than described. Item arrived early and was very well packaged. A 15 year old camera without a scratch, blemish or mark anyplace. A shutter count just short of 7,300. Seller was honest and admitted when he didn't know something about the camera. I highly recommend this seller.

    Pokemon Sapphire

    Game looks great and authentic. Powered on to a dry internal battery which means clock didn't work in game, which wasn't advertised. Date code on battery says it was the original 2003 battery. Fortunately, I had a few new GBA game batteries lying around and soldered in a new one. Works great after a small bit of work, in game clock ticking along again.

    Small tubes-low volume of product

    Excellent product but these sample tubes are smaller than I thought they would be. I thought they would be good for travel, but I am finding the need to pack more than one due to the low volume of product in each tube.

  • Pokemon Sapphire Version

    Another good game in the Pokemon series. It is a good follow-up from Silver and Gold and does well to re-establish and reboot the Pokemon universe for the GBA. The story and mini-quests are sufficient but the real appeal is in the battling and RPG elements. It's not a big advancement of the mechanics of a Pokemon game but the features that are included and added give the franchise a good face-lift.

  • No mention of a name engraved in label can't really tell by pictures. Game overall works flawlessly.

  • How I feel about this nostalgic 2002/2003 GBA game.

    I do love this game, while I do have some major nitpicks with game like the game's AI (most notably during battles) and I think this game is a lot more playable on a Nintendo DS, and Game Boy Advance SP than a regular Game Boy Advance, I really like this GBA game, Graphics, Visuals, and music are really good even for Game Boy Advance standards. The game works very well and is very playable, I'm very happy how my playthrough of the game turned out, this game is feels nostalgic on many levels.
