I bought pokemon pearl and and wii play at the buy 2 get one free toys rus sale, and super paper mario was sold out, so I got pokemon revolution. If I like pokemon, is it worth keeping? If not should go back and exchange for super paper mario when it is available? I already have zelda TP, RE4wii, and MP3...

If you enjoy the game, then of course it's worth the money.

I'm interested in how you think that it's 15 dollars.

Wii Play 49.99 (US)

Pokemon Revolution 49.99 (US)

Pokemon Diamond 34.99 (US)

So you take the two highest priced games and you pay 99.98 for all three

That means each game is (roughly) 33.33

Depends, if you really want to see your pokemon from your DS in 3D and use Wii-DS connection, keep it. Otherwise it's just a waste of money imo since your basically playing the battles just like you would on the DS just in 3D. But if you really like the idea of seeing/battling pokemon in 3D, by all means enjoy it!

I was basing the 15 on the fact that I was going to pay 85 for wii play and pokemon pearl prior to the toysrus sale announcement.

I wasnt even planning on getting super paper mario, but if figured why not? and unfortunately it was sold out, but they said that if i keep revolution wrapped up I can exchange for super paper mario when they get it in stock.

Ohh gotcha

Just as a heads up watch the sales and keep all slips so you can price match this time of year. Since I see you like the opportunity to save money make sure that you always give yourself the best opportunity to get the most for the least.

What do you mean by broken? And I am leaning toward exchanging it. I also have 45 days so I could wait for guitar hero 3, manhunt 2, and SMG.

Pokemon Battle Revolution does havea large amount of wifi activity meaning if you want to battle random people online you should keep it. Also it interacts with diamond and pearl. You can use your DS to control the game for instance once you set it up for that.

It's an arena style game. Just play it you may find yourself pleasently surprised. A lot of reviews of games are just full of sheet because they are from jaded gamers or from interns. it does have nice graphics and it's a good look at how the ds interacts with a wii game.

It's a good addition to Diamond and Pearl. But it's basically just an expansion pack, thus the low score. I have it, I enjoy playing my Pogeys online in a Battle-Dome (from Emerald) type environment. If it's 15 dollars, it's worth the price definitely, especially if you enjoy Diamond and Pearl.

I really do like pokemon, and my prob with super paper mario is that it got good reviews, but not great, which kind of makes me want to just wait for SMG and skipping paper mario for now...but if this game really stinks, I might as well get rid of it, but now its getting some defense from pokefanatics like me, so now I am considering keeping it...lol

They dont have pearl/diamond connectivity though, and thats what appealed to me in the first place. Is it like pokemon stadium for the 64?

They would probably not let you do this since you got it by usinga two for one deal and since SMG wasn't out while the deal was taking place,they wouldn't/won't exchange PBR for it.

I just noticed a lot of people in another thread ranking pokemon battle revolution in their top 3 favorite games for the wii, I think I may end up keeping it and just getting super paper mario for christmas or something.

No, thats not it, toysrus had the buy 2 games, get one free sale, so i got pokemon as my free game because super paper mario was sold out, but they said i could exchange it for super paper mario in the future, but since it worked out to be about $15 with the sale, I was contemplating just keeping it.
