Do you see yourself ever retiring from video gaming? If you think about it, eventually you'll have to, but tbh, I don't see myself doing so any time soon. By video games, I don't mean just pokemon. Any thoughts? |

I'll play video games until the day I die. I'm completely sure of this. For me, retiring from video games is like retiring from watching TV except unlike TV, video games are typically well made and entertaining. |

I'm trusting that no one's just saying this because they just really love gaming right now? =P I'd be nice to get someone in who does plan on quitting so we can start some debate or discussion or something >_> |

I can't understand why 99% of old people don't like video games, or are incapable of being any good at them. I hope that I can keep up with the curve and play until I die (while making my kids l337) but something might happen to stop me =/ |

I'll play Pokemon as long as it is a good series. At this point for me, quitting Pokemon would be like quitting Zelda- not going to happen. Actually, as my life has gone on, I've become more into video games, not less. I would predict that as I age and have more money and free time, video games will only continue to grow in importance for me. I have discovered one small problem though. My hands are huge, and Nintendo's controllers seem to be built for the slightly smaller handed. I've mostly been able to adopt(as ridiculous as I must look with my hands practically engulfing that SNES controller), but I fear that if future controllers get any smaller at all I won't be able to play those games anymore(the Rev doesn't look like a problem at all though; it actually looks like an improvement). Then again, most of this problem probably comes from my being 5 and 6 when I really played these games a lot and thus my talent is rooted in having hands too small for the controller. |

I rather like the controllers, but I guess my hands aren't really above average in size. They can't be that uncomfortable... imo having hands too small is worse than too big. |

Um, RSE was better than GSC in pretty much every way. Pokemon has improved significantly every game. RBY was incredibly poorly programmed and had a simplistic metagame(at least compared to later ones). GSC had a terrible overworld(Kanto was empty), a terrible day/night system(I never caught a Ledyba because I don't play in the morning ever, and I got REALLY sick of Hoot Hoot), and a stallish metagame. RSE has a final metagame that is probably a bit too offensive, but it's progress, and the ingame is infintely better than the previous two. |

I think RSE and GSC are tied =\ RSE because it's when I got into serious pokemon battling... GSC was just cool... I like the day/night system ._. Just set your clock 6 hours ahead. |

I hate the GSC metagame. I can have a team full of snorlax counters, and no be guarunteed to kill the bastered. The damn thing just doesnt die, and makes for a boring game. |

I hated the day night system when I was in a time zone a couple of hours ahead because I had to wait so long for houndour and murkrow
Gameplay wise I think RSE are the best games so far. The first games were pretty poorly done (glitches, bag system sucked) and GSC's kanto sucked. |

RBY is hilarious to play and watch, but I nearly killed myself watching bits of a GSC tourny. I'm so glad I started competative battling after GSC died and people were playing 200. Spanky |

=\ I didn't know GSC was that stallish. I came in during early 200 as well, right around them time when Jaskpass got popular. |
