Well, you can't fit a nice and big GPU and CPU cooler in a micro ATX case for starters. It also has reduced airflow, the smaller motherboard is a bottleneck for expansion, few HDD bays... All these issues are the same as laptops. I have the space for it so why not ?
There are actually taller cases than mid-tower ATX ones (what I have). They fit a larger motherboard for multi GPU (>2) configurations. Unless you use two dual GPU cards, it's actually the only way to build a quad GPU machine.
Also to let my system cool down, I just switch to less intensive tasks and it get below 30°C in seconds.

My main issue is having to manage that many Pokemons. I would rather play Topaz which only has 40+ Pokémons.

Lol yeah, they used to have that catch phrase "Gotta catch'em all" when it was about 151 Pokemons, but they don't use it anymore because it would lack credibility I guess
It's also annoying when you encounter a Pokemon and you don't know its type. It didn't happen when you knew all Pokemons (when they were not so many) but now, every Pokemon I encounter is unknown to me. Can't tell how to catch it (without killing it or without dying first) nor if it's worth getting in the party or just get in the box. That's another reason why I like remakes, there are less Pokemons than in newer releases.

Not really true actually. There are not more than 200 Pokémons you can catch in each game. The 1000 monsters that now exist can only be gotten by exchanging with other versions. Also it's just some getting used to in order to know which ones are good or not. Given the number of times I played Fire Red,  I can tell you that I know almost all the worthy Pokémon.

Yeah, but you are talking about an old generation here (Fire Red), but can you tell every worthy and every worthy Pokemon in X and Y ?

I never played X/Y so no I can't tell. But having played other generations (actually now I remember I beat Diamond too) I can tell the worthy Pokémon in these.

You could try something along the lines of [url=javascript:<blah blah blah>]+1 Me![/url].

I'm pretty sure this won't work. Plus the js code is also used to render the button.

By the way this is going to be an app if either of these conditions is met :
a) The engine is small enough that I can squeeze all the data into the app and all that would almost fill the page (unlikely but bleh).
b) The engine almost fills the page by itself and the data will remain external. More likely but still.

If I don't meet any of these requirements then it will be a program with external data. Unless I hit a RAM issue which is unlikely.

That messy wiring. You could make it cleaner, it will improve airflow and help the PC cool better. Like so :

All the cables are behind the panel on which the motherboard is attached. Well, it's true I could make the bottom better but it's not a big deal since there's few cables hanging out in there.

Indeed. Achievement/100% OCD makes you want to replay more. Also, speedrunning. Maybe add a way to log play time ?

Yeah I was sure about that actually.
