Free if you emulate 🧠
Many of the best DS games are built around the hardware in ways that make it difficult to get the full experience from trying to emulate.
I missed out every Pokémon game after Platinum since buying a new system was just too much for me to afford as a child. I gather from your username that you’re a fan of the franchise - do you have any suggestions for how to get back into the series from where I left off most cost-effectively while retaining the essential functions? Obviously, some online servers and events for certain gameplay elements are no longer available for cartridge gameplay.
You should checkout retro achievements. I just finished mastering Pokemon Red & Blue and even finished a professor oak challenge run. Completely free and you can even use retro arch (the front end for a ton of different emulators) on your mobile! Feel free to pm me with any questions.
