Is it still worth playing?
Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire are 2014 remakes of the 2002 role-playing games Ruby and Sapphire, made by Game Freak for the Nintendo 3DS. They were released on 21 November 2014, exactly twelve years after the originals. The remakes keep changes made in later generations, such as the type split, unlimited use of TMs and triple battles. They also carry over Mega Evolution, Pokémon Amie, Super Training and the Player Search System. They add a mechanic called Primal Reversion for Kyogre and Groudon. Players can also ride Latios or Latias to soar above the Hoenn region, and some areas can only be reached that way. A region reworked with modern features is still a pleasant trip to take.
