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.

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.

The game is fun and builds onto the basic format of previous games in the Pokemon franchise. There are a ton of new pokemon to catch, places to explore, trainers to battle, and a bunch of interesting side quests to kill additional time. The game's graphics and sound are updated to match the capacity of the Game Boy Advance. Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire have sold the most out of all games for the GBA and for good reason. My only personal lament is that the newer Pokemon games are designed to force die-hard fans to trade between all 4 of the third generation games (not counting Emerald) in order to "catch em all", and it can be rather difficult to find people to trade with between all 4 cartridges, not to mention that some of the legendary Pokemon are only made available by attending IRL special events which your average gamer is never going to participate in. EDIT: Too all ebayers looking for Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald, or for that matter any well-known GBA games: beware of obscure sellers with few/no reviews or feedback. Many of the copies of such games on Ebay are bootleg copies that are poorly programmed and assembled. I was screwed over a couple times by buying illegitimate copies of games which wouldn't save or function properly. BE CAREFUL WHO YOU BUY FROM.Read full review
The game is a fun retro experience but does crash on the DS system. My kids would like to see these titles released for the DS system. You can purchase this game and others at very affordable prices on Ebay but we were surprised that is was a game marketed for the Spanish market with Spanish prompters throughout the game. I would suggest asking the buyer if these are American releases before buying. We are still very happy with the purchase and enjoy the Sapphire Version. It is challenging and has more reading than the new Pokemon DS titles.
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.
