About this product

Product Information

The Pokémon series morphs from precious stones to precious metal and sends players on a journey to the mysterious new Distortion World in this enhanced remake of Pokémon: Pearl Version and Pokémon: Diamond Version. The Distortion World is unlike any previous Pokémon setting, letting gamers operate outside the laws of physics as they leap from suspended platforms and walk upside-down. Changes also come to the Sinnoh region in the form of the "Battle Frontier," an area containing five new battle facilities for trainers, each with its own special rules and each helmed by unique "Frontier Brain" characters. Fans of multiplayer action can also head to the new "Wi-Fi Plaza" to enjoy a number of amusement park activities, including parades, fireworks shows, and three new four-player mini-games.

    Case, manual, and inserts only--all as expected

    It was just the case, manual, and inserts. No damage to the printed bits, just a bit of scuffing on the clear plastic cover sleeve--totally expected. Inserts and manuals were free of damage--just the expected level of curling these DS cases cause naturally. As an aside, the cover art is really pretty with that holofoil background. I'd purchased the bare games separately a long while ago, so it's great to be able to get cases for them now and make them a bit safer to store. (The games are also great!)

    Game crashing repeatedly...

    the game worked great for a bit, now it's crashing every 2 minutes. I tried it with 3 different systems, same thing in all...

  • Best Gen 4 Main Title

    This game is a great place to explore the Sinnoh region, especially before the remakes come out! Very nostalgic and brings back those happy memories :) The story is really good and Cynthia is one of the best Poké champions. The starters are all very balanced and the added Pokémon in this title really add to the game. Highly recommend to new and old players!!

  • Great game, high prices

    Platinum is one of the most fun and lore-heavy games for the DS. It tends to freeze at times, but this is actually very common amongst copies of the game, because of the fit in the DS slot. Just make sure to save your game frequenly. Although I got the game for a better price than anything else I saw, the used gaming market is pretty bad right now. So, save your money and wait until prices are normal again unless you're absolutely itching for an authentic copy.

  • Bang for your buck

    An absolute steal for the market this item is in! The game runs perfectly and can transfer Pokémon up to 5th generation and further. Couldn’t be happier! I was missing these games in my collection from when I was younger. Can’t believe I gave these away or sold them.. Glad I can indulge in nostalgia!

  • Reproduction But Works Flawlessly

    The game is a repro cart BUT it works exactly like an authentic one does. The PokéTransfer works perfectly and so does every other feature. If you want a working cartridge of Platinum and don't care if its a repro then I would recommend this.

  • Good condition, works

    Card is readable and it saves. Plays good although didn't realize how different it was from Diamond or Pearl until I started playing it. I noticed the wrist watch has two buttons (forw/rev) where as Diamond has a forward button on its watch. Didn't know that until I played it. The case is in good overall condition. Usual wear over the years you'd expect on something old but no tears/dents or marks on the case.

  • Definitive Excellence

    The game CIB is a bargain compared to other offerings. Everything is in excellent condition and the game runs smoothly. As for the game itself, I noticed it runs a lot faster and that there’s a lot more content than Pokemon Diamond. The music, map design, features, story and gameplay are top notch for a game released in 2008/2009.

  • Cool game!

    Bought this for my daughter who used to have one back in the day. Works great!

  • Works just as expected

    The cartridge itself has a little bit of trouble sliding into the slot, but it really isn’t that difficult to push it in. That’s my only, small complaint. Everything else works perfectly and the game looks like it’s in great shape. Aside from the physical product, Pokémon Platinum is a fantastic game. If you have never played a Pokémon game, this is an easy one to jump into.
