                          @mediamogul the 3do was a technical masterpiece in its day, I for one played it before the playstation was released, it was like magic.
                          I played the saturn before anyone I knew had a playstation. also a great piece of kit.

                              @muehltime Pokémon Ultra Violet combines Fire Red and Green Leaf. It also removes the need for trading and anything else that was included in the original games to get Pokémon, so with Ultra Violet you can really catch them all.
                              It was my first (and last) Pokémon game and I really liked it to not have to choose between Red or Green.

                                  Indeed, it's a fun game. I only would like that it had a password system back in the days (today we have save states and/or can leave the game paused on our emulation devices).

                                    the 3do was a technical masterpiece in its day

                                    I'm probably a little tough on it due to the number of full motion video games it had. Like the SegaCD, the system was definitely at it's strongest when running more traditional game titles and despite it's limited library, it was indeed technically superior to anything else out at the time. I have to admit that I found 'Return Fire' to be particularly fun with a friend, so I've gone back and changed my answer ;).
