Lately I've had the urge to play Pokemon, but it has been a while since I last played. I loved them when I was a kid, and would definitely say they're some of my favorite games of all time. I thought I might pick up the 3DS XL when it comes out in August, as well as the remake of gold/silver and platinum/diamond/pearl and black/white. Are these games worth picking up? It's been quite a while since I last played Pokemon and I've just suddenly been overcome by the urge to start playing them again.
Thanks!
