I’m staring silently into the void with a prayer that Pokemon Pinball shall emerge from the darkness for the GB service, comrade.

I've been hoping for Pokemon RBY and/or GSC/FRLG/RSE on Switch since the Switch was announced in 2016 lol xD.

I've added a link to a Google Sheets on the homepage and The Master List with the full list of GBA games, where I'll be marking which games I've finished or have no plans to play. You can find it here! https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1LCJpn9dQnJCM8XaTz3QQnCvOpj6XBbIe76OWjs_ZFlA/edit?usp=sharing

This is a really earnest, honest effort - translating this stuff when no one else will is crazy awesome, will certainly be keeping an eye on this! :)

Thank you so much! Seeing people appreciate what I'm doing really warms my heart. It actually goes both sides: reviews were always distant for me, I was amazed by people who could formulate such an extensive opinion on things.

Been feeling a little down on the quality of my reviews, but I'm gonna try and stick to doing them! Hopefully next review this week.

We love reading your reviews, please keep at them for as long as you're enjoying it!
I got a lovely email asking me if I'd ever consider doing a simlar project to the Abyss for the Game Boy Color, and I gotta say I have thought about it but man, I've already dug this hole for myself. Maybe one day.

The lack of character options are a massive disappointment tbh since I'm one of those "never play as the human" types of RPG players but I can't lie and say that the isometric pixelart graphics recreating a fully 3D game charm the heck out of me, it's part of why I love the GBA Spyro games (well, Season of Flame and Attack of the Rhynocs anyway)
It's just even more strange considering the Elf character from the console game is on the bloody cover! Just weird. I think I had one of the Spyro GBA games as a kid (Season of Flame sounds right!) but yeah I've seen videos on the Spyro/Crash crossover games and those look... well, at least they're short.
Great review thank you, I've only played the original BG but I was looking for a simple Diablo-like recently so this one will definitely go on the list.
