Hey, I just finished a full run on the GBA port of Crystal! I was using a hacked N2dsxl and honestly it was an all around blast.
I get what you mean about gen2. I was the target demographic for gen1 when it came out, but I wouldn’t find my favorite Pokemon until I went back as an adult. Ghost type all the way.

Man. I always forget about Crysytal. I wish we had gotten a port of it to the DS. I always hated that they stopped doing the “All in one” releases, I wish we got them back.

Oh my dude, if you have access to a ds, you gotta hack that bad boy ASAP! Gba ROMs can be reliably forwarded as native games and pksm is like a combination save editor and pokebank right on the device! The hardest part is just finding a working ds these days.

First thing I did when I got mine back in 2021 was hack it. Absolutely no regrets there lol. I recently got a DS Pico to take my hardware all the way back to the original form factor for the OG DS Lite. Only issue is the console’s touch screen has a dead zone

Ah man, I really wish there was an easy way to modify them with capacitive touch. Those dual layers were a pain back in the day and a bigger one now.
Having never had a ds before I got it to hack, I’m not a fan of the way the hinges woble so I’m designing my own shell and mechanics to adapt it.
