How popular were Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire when they first came out? Were they fan favourites? Or were people unimpressed by them?

I ask because when they came out I was too young to pay attention to what the critics said.

I miss those days.

According to gamefaqs they were the best selling GBA games of all time

Iirc Ruby and Sapphire were pretty popular. I don't think many people would consider them better than the first two generations but they were the highest selling GBA game by like 4 million units.

Well, it was the best selling game on the GBA and the only game that sold more than it in 2003 was Madden. So yeah people really loved it.

I think most of the Pokemon generations are pretty well regarded. I always got the impression Gen IV was the low point.

People liked them, a lot. It added a lot to the combat system with natures, abilities, and EV limits for the competitive types. Jumping from GB/GBC graphics to GBA was a massive leap. Hell, the only thing I hear people complain about consistently was that the surf movement speed was slow in the region most traversed by water.

iG should've known that sentry was there from the mid fight, but a little bit of tough luck(literally expired 5 seconds after).

Such a good close game. Don't know if iG can deal with NB late game though. Going to be really interesting.

Yes it's part of the table top left, you can change between a bunch of screens and one of them shows the inventory of everyone.

it had a bunch of options you can switch between, you can see everyones items in a tab yeah. its not positioned at the bottom all the time though. spectators don't like to use it too often instead clicking on heroes to create a little more immediacy when an item is finished. similar to BW observers not showing a building or army until its finished occasionally.
