  1. SalmanS

    Super nostalgic. A great remake. Would have appreciated the Platinum contents as well.

  2. Tupur

  3. VitorR

    Pokémon Brilliant Diamond on the Nintendo Switch offers a nostalgic trip back to the Sinnoh region with a fresh and polished experience. As a remake of the classic Diamond version, the game beautifully recreates the original storyline and locations while introducing updated graphics and gameplay mechanics.

    One of the standout aspects of this game is the attention to detail in capturing the essence of the original. From the charming 2D sprites to the iconic music, it’s a wonderful journey down memory lane for long-time fans. The game also adds some quality of life improvements, such as faster gameplay options, which make the overall experience more enjoyable.

    The battle system remains true to its roots, maintaining the turn-based mechanics and allowing for strategic battles with the vast array of Pokémon available. The inclusion of the Underground explained in more detail allows players to explore and enjoy multiplayer features such as secret bases, adding a new layer of fun and interaction.

    The updated graphics are a significant improvement, giving the game a refreshing look while preserving the charm and aesthetics that made Diamond so memorable. The attention to detail can be seen in character designs, environments, and Pokémon animations, making the game visually appealing.

    While there are a few minor flaws, like occasional frame rate drops, they do not significantly impact the overall experience.

  4. Grant1210

    Does a great way of bringing the classics ds game to switch! People that complain have nothing better to do than give this game a bad review! It is a fantastic game!

  5. JamesP

  6. MelindaM

  7. Bryan

    Perfect game I have no other words to explain how good this game is

  8. Kene

    Great game and a great remake. A lot of people didnt like the Chibi style but it really isnt that bad and it definitely grows on you. All in all a beautiful game with great quality of life improvements. If youre a pokemon fan you will like this game. Worth picking up.

  9. Johnny

    Bought this for my nephew because Sinnoh was one of my favorite regions of pokemon growing up. He loved the game and I’m glad he got to relive some pf my fondest memories in HD.

  10. austiinos

    Kept to a lot of its roots. Fun region to go through. Worst thing is the moe like people and zooming in on cutscenes. The art is great for everything else. In battle is also great.

  11. Unknown

    I want to be the very best, like no one ever was!!

  12. poppin

  17. SmashBros

    Pretty Decent game, I just wish they did more of a remake for these games.

  18. MonsterVee

    A good game for everyone. Unfortunately wasn’t available for pickup at my local store. Wasnt a big deal, shipping was pretty fast. Came in a day early, too.

  19. Bleh

    Just another pokemon game really but as a long time pokemon fan (since Blue released) it delivers that pokemon experience I want

  20. BrianC

    Fun game, if you want a chill relaxing game with gen 4 mons, this is it.

  21. LitPapi

    It’s cool. It’s Pokemon. I’m glad Nintendo brought this out.

  22. BenjaminD

    Lots of fun, definitely worth playing if you enjoyed any of the other games

  23. JPEOPLES

    Not as good as the original game but fun enough for the kiddos

  24. ItsJC

    Very very good game. I was so happy after completing it

  25. Thedudeabides

    It was alright…. eventually i just got bored. Its not the same as it used to be.

  26. David

    Extremely nostalgic for Gen 4 lovers! Compatible with home and Gen 8 and 9 games! Always loads of fun!

  27. Gokub

    The game itself is good, however the service at Fordham horrible.

    I went to pick up, told to wait ? I wait about 15 mins in one spot while that same worker is doing other stuff infront of me.

    I finally went up to someone else and told to go upstairs where I could finally get my game.
    Go to a different bestbuy not one in the Bronx , they clearly don’t care

  28. Jose

    So true to the original they didn’t really add anything new. It was still fun and I enjoyed it. But once I completed the game I didn’t have much else to do.

  29. Bchaffin25

    Great game. Bought it shortly after release based on recommendations. Do not regret

  30. Alexeloso

    The game wasn’t very good as a remake when we have had much better remakes

  31. JosephM

    My som lovea to play this all the time amd so do i

  32. HugoL

    Very nostalgic to the old ds games they need to make them all like this

  33. MoniqueR

    It’s great for the nostalgia! Playing style is pretty much the same and the animetion is upgraded. runs smoothly!

  34. THE5THTURTLE

    Honestly, it’s a pretty bad remake of the original Diamond. Graphics weren’t updated or anything. I don’t recommend it

  35. Family

    A great gift for the gamers in my family. Easy to install.

  36. CharlieM

    Bought this for my son, and he plays it every day.

  37. TurtleOnMyKnee

    Pretty good for a remake. I was hoping for more though

  38. Dominiccolon1

    This game brings back such great memories from playing it on the ds

  39. ricky101

    Played hours of this game! Definitely worth a buy!

  40. JacobH

    A return to one of my favorite Pokémon games. If you love Pokémon you will probably love this

  41. Mvelamati

    good game, nice graphic; recommend for all switch game

  42. Jenny

    So much fun! Both my kids ages 12-10 enjoy it and I even play it myself (32)

  43. EeveeGal72

    Good fun. The day I finally beat Cynthia was my proudest Pokémon game moment. Lots of post game activities too. However, getting the gems to catch all the legendaries gets tedious so I gave up on that part. (It’s a time suck, imo) A good challenge compared to other Pokémon switch games though and hours of fun and exploration.

  44. Bambi

    Best Christmas gift I got for my son! He’s spent hours playing!!! And out of my hair! Seriously, good graphics and exactly as expected.

  45. AustinB

    Great game for beginners interested in the Pokemon franchise, and for old time fans wishing to visit a classic.

  46. VALady

    Purchased this as a gift. My daughter loves this game.

  47. dbgator311

    It was great my grandson loved it it was exactly what he wanted

  48. Unknown

    Kids love it easier to play than the card game can’t complain

  49. Kurt88

    I never played the original Diamond game, but this game is very enjoyable and the price was great!

  50. Brodyh74

    It boggles my mind why they didn’t include the content from Platinum.
