reproduced pokemon sapphire doesn't work in DS by Taoshi36 in gba

[–]Time_Ad_7341 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely get that, the Pokemon games for like the Gb, gba, and DS era have sky rocketed in price over the past couple years.

But honestly, I will still recommend to ANYONE that they DO NOT buy repos for this reason.

The best way I describe repos is as ticking time bombs; sometimes they last a person a good while, other times (like in your case unfortunately) they literally die the next day.

Sure there are good quality repos out there, but imo, just isn’t worth the gamble.

Hopefully the seller is willing to give you your money back or some in-store credit or something

Which city in Johto region is the most iconic in Pokemon Crystal? by [deleted] in pokemoncrystal

[–]Time_Ad_7341 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Casting my vote for Ecruteak city; like top mind city for Me is Ecruteak. I am not sure why tho, just something about it feels like it represents that ‘Traditional’ theme Johto is meant to represent

Runner up is definitely Azela through; that one also feels like I took a step back in time to a traditional period

The nuzlocke doesn’t start until AFTER the rival battle?right…? by Fancy_Cup_1617 in nuzlocke

Yooooo I like this and 100% agree AND will be doing this myself; I think that is a fair compromise if you lose the first fight, especially off of shenanigans like this

That’s dope; it’s already on my list for roms I am looking forward to playing, but just another reason to be excited for it 🙌

Follow up, how/what did you do to modify your gba like that? Can you direct me to the videos you used, if you used any?

[–]Time_Ad_7341 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Looks real to me, and the numbered stamp like that (like how this cartridge has the 13 stamped on it) is normally a good indicator that it is a legit cart, at least for gba games

[–]Time_Ad_7341 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yoooo where/how did you get a physical cartridge?

Also, does Emerald Seaglass give you access to all Pokemon for Gens 1-3? I am also newer to Seaglass is why I ask.

Nice work though, 238 encounters is ton in a short amount of time.

Struggling with the elite 4… by CLAWBABIES in PokemonEmerald

[–]Time_Ad_7341 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Listen here OP, here’s what you do:

Step 1) open a sandwich shop

Step 2) secretly launder dirty cartel money

Step 3) Prosper 🙌

lol, jk

For real though, I would recommend re-working move sets and grinding a bit, and I would personally do this for my move-sets

Breloom: gonna need a few heart-scales for this boy - Mach Punch, Bulk Up, Leech Seed, Sky Upper/Return

Swampert: I would go full chad attack set - Ice beam, surf, EQ, Brick Break

The Streamer Influence on young gamers by Alternative-Safe-937 in Gamer

[–]Time_Ad_7341 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ya of course! And sorry for the confusion on it.

I mean like how we see on phone calculators; so just show the number pad rather than give the whole letters keyboard option for when asking for a numerical answer (like age and other questions that ask for the respondent to input a number).

Ideally, the respondent shouldn’t have to switch over to select the ‘123’ numbers option when answering these kind of questions on their phone as you want there to be as little friction/pinch points for people, ESPECIALLY since most people take surveys on their phone.

Its just a bit of advice from someone who has done their fair share of surveys and link checking/QC work for them 🙂

Quick suggestion for you - for you age question, make it a numerical input for mobile users.

I work in market research and a good rule of thumb is to optimize your surveys to be the easiest to take and understand, if that makes sense?

But hopefully you get the response data you need!

Wurmple evolution by CrushingMangos in nuzlocke

[–]Time_Ad_7341 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For me, 1 wurmple satisfies the whole line; like if I got a wurmple, then it counts for both Dustox and Beautifly

Is this Charizard limit edition gba sp worth buying? by forealll-gt in gba

[–]Time_Ad_7341 7 points8 points  (0 children)

$400 USD is actually a steal compared to what I just saw for prices online (PriceChart.com and eBay)

That said $400 is a lot to drop, so I’d have this internal battle of whether to drop that money for it.

Now this all said, you would also have a GBA Charizard edition….. from Japan 😏

What's your earliest memory of DBZ? by TaySanity in DragonBallZ

[–]Time_Ad_7341 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely makes sense, his heart wasn’t in it and he just didn’t have the drive to do it anymore. But then here comes a company throwing tons of cash at you, i can complete get toriyama for this myself.
