 This game is fun and a must have, even with Pokemon Black and White's release around the corner. August 31, 2010
A Fluxed Person
This game is a great remake from Pokemon Gold - With better graphics, and more features! A Must-Have.
It's Pokemon. What can you expect? August 2, 2010

The design's great, and it's an enjoyable breath of fresh air on the original Gold (or so I think). What else is there to say about it? It's a Pokemon game.
Pokemon Heartgold Review August 2, 2010
Immortal95
I have to say when I first opened this product I was excited. It was the best Pokemon game I have ever seen compared to the Pokemon gold that I had for gameboy many years ago. There are a lot of new features, such as able to go back to Kanto which was a great plus to the game and able to catch a lot more legendary Pokemon then other games. The beginning wasn't so great training the Pokemon but once you started to get into the game you can't stop playing it. I did have a little hold back about the elite four because it was very tough to deal with because of the amount of trainers while still in Johto. There aren't enough to raise your Pokemon's level high enough but that still gives a great challenge to the game. This game is definitely about strategy, and how patient you can be. I would recommend this product for at least 10 years or older. I am 15 years old but I have to say Pokemon is one of my favorites. Long live Pokemon!
 My Pokemon Heart Gold Review August 1, 2010

As a 19-year-old who grew up playing the original Pokemon games, I must say that Heart Gold and Soul Silver are a "must have" for Pokemon fans. With updated graphics, hundreds of new Pokemon, and new story lines, this game is one of the best that I have played yet. Friends of mine find that this game, along with Soul Silver, are the best entertaining Pokemon games available.
Blast from the Past August 1, 2010

I bought this game pretty much entirely because I used to play Gold and Silver back in the days of Game Boy Color. My girlfriend bought the SoulSilver version, and it's been great times for both of us so far. This is a great recreation and enhancement of the original Pokemon Gold game. If you didn't like that one, this probably isn't for you. That being said, if you did like it, you're also in for some additional fun from there - with the addition of new Pokemon, new areas, multi-battles, DS Wireless, online play (if you can find a WEP-encrypted wireless connection, that is), and more, it's a blast. If you're used to the old Game Boy Color graphics like I was, the graphics will totally blow you away too.
One of the things I dig the most about the game is actually the cheesy little peripheral included with it: the Pokewalker. It's a pedometer that you can load one of your Pokemon into, and it gains experience and Watts as you walk. The more you use it, the more little paths you uncover, and the more you can find on it. I think it's a cool way to level up a Pokemon while I'm living my real life, especially for Pokemon like Magikarp or Ditto that can be somewhat tougher to level up on their own. The device surprised me by how inconspicuous it can be: sure, it's shaped like a Pokeball, but it's tiny and you can mute it and stick it in your pocket, and voila! Having a pedometer is also kind of a neat way to encourage a little extra exercise, or appease your morbid curiosity about how many steps you take at work. You can also play on the Pokewalker a little bit and either find items or catch other Pokemon, which then transfer back into your game. Pretty sweet stuff!
My least favorite thing about the game is that I can't find a suitable wireless connection to play on WiFi. I have a DSi, and it can connect to pretty much any wireless network you need it to for its own internet purposes, but it HAS to be a WEP-encrypted connection for any games to work. It seems short-sighted of Nintendo to design games that rely on what is very quickly becoming outdated internet protocol. Long story short, some McDonalds or libraries may have the connection you need, it seems none in Flint do. There are ways around this, and I'm looking into this - there's apparently a USB Bluetooth adapter that can do the job, but either way, it's pretty challenging. Of course, many home routers can be switched between WEP and WPA, I just happen to have one of the few that can't.
Long story short, if you like any of the previous Pokemon games, buy this one. It's a blast. It's also very different from the other Generation IV games, i.e. Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, so don't worry if you have any of those - this is still a fun investment.
