"Pokemon Ruby and Pokemon Sapphire are my two favorite Pokemon games of all-time. Knowing that the two games have been remade for the 3DS made me jump for joy. Now that the game has finally released worldwide, I must say that revisiting the Hoenn region again has never been so fun as it’s gives nostalgia to veteran Pokemon players. The game also adds more content to play as it’s packed with extra stuff to do right after beating the Elite Four." - JPS
From Nintendo Life: "It's time to dust off your 3DS and your copy of Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, because people have been reporting that their cartridges are no longer working, almost seven years after the release of the game.
A few people on Reddit and ResetEra are making sure to test their copies, and it seems like only the PAL version is affected, although it's not clear what might have caused the issue yet."
Hardcore Gamer: It’s been awhile since we’ve gotten to see characters from Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire. Years ago the release of Alpha Sapphire and Omega Ruby were a big hit. Most recently however, you could battle leaders of Team Aqua and Team Magma in Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon. So, maybe that’s why a couple of new 3DS themes are being released.
