This is a graphical upgrade to one of the better Pokemon generations, but instead of adding or expanding anything, or even just adding the stuff from Platinum, it was made to be extremely loyal to DPPt, and that is extremely disappointing. The Pokenav is obnoxious unless you are in handheld, the cutscene zooms are hilariously awful, and the shift from chibi to normal size is jarring to say the least.
The updated OST is nice, and the Gym Leaders + Elite 4 had strategies which is a small improvement. The Grand Underground is still fun, but making it the only way to get Platinum-added Pokemon before you beat the main game is straight up obnoxious.
My advice is to stick with Platinum unless you don't have a system that can play it, as even the small upgrades are not worth the full price on one of the most boring remakes Pokemon has had to date.
