[phantom_zangetsu]

do you guys think that the ruby and sapphire version survive untill december 31 2006? well i sure hope so. what about you guys?

[Ralts]

I think so.... well, we just can hope :(

[Harthos]

What do you mean, exactly, by "survive"? Do mean "will it still be sold/available?

[Shine the Hedgehog]

It probubly will at least I hope so.

[haunter_northwind]

I enjoy playing Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald very much. Altough my data often erased. But, I never feel bored to play it again. Because the games are interesting for me.

I hope Pokemon Games are survive in 2006. No, not only in 2006 but also in the future. Beside they are survived, they also developed better then they are before. :)

[Dragon-Chan]

R/B/Y still survive today, so I think...yeah.

[Dragonite Tamer]

Well, the metal/colour generation are still very much alive.

[It@chi Bl@st]

Sure,the color/metel versions are still alive even up till now.The R/S/E will survive up to 2006 or even to 2008;)

[Charizard-Kunâ„¢]

Pokemon-Red,Blue,Green,Yellow aren't popular. Now noone cares about Pokemon-Yellow,etc. So I think R/S/E won't have a good chance of surviving. :(
I love those games. It will be a sad world for the people who like R/S/E if they don't survive. :(

[saint jimmmey]

come on guys...pokemon will still be as popular as it is now it's just that there will be new games that will be even better.....

[Eon-Rider]

RSE will definitely survive. It's one of the best Pokemon games, in my opinion.

[Charizard-Kunâ„¢]

Ya, but if they don't survive, then we can't do anything about it.

[Latios-Latias]

It might survive but some people might forget about it if new pokemon games come out, like people did to y/r/b but i still play them.

[DarkThunder]

They probably will survive(mostly Emerald).RBY I'm not sure but I like my silver version(even though I only got it last week).

[Drifblim]

If Red, Blue, and Yellow have been alive for eight years now, then Ruby and Sapphire will enjoy yet another year of popularity.

[brotlov]

Yeah I think that it'll survive in 2006, like look at Gold, people still play that.

WoOt 200 posts!

[lilsprite]

i hope it will
if it doesnt i dont know what ill do!!!!!!!!!!!

[saint jimmmey]

i know what i'll do..i'll buy diamond and pearl!!

[Dare]

I personally think that the current generation will survive because of all the advancements it made. Abilities, Natures, a buttload of Pokemon (We went from 251 to 384 and later to 386 - pretty big leap compared to the first generation transitioning into the second), and double battles. A new era of Pokemon began with this generation, Pokemon became less of a fad and more of a fun, dependable franchise. It will be a sad day if RSFRLGE are ever forgotten.

[Black Ice]

They will be forgotten eventually, but not for a long time.

[DarkThunder]

They will be forgotten eventually, but not for a long time.
Probably in over 15-25 years.Besides.For most of us it's New Years and New Years means it's 2006.That means if R/S survive now they are technically surviving in 2006.A better question would be: Will R/B/Y/G/S/C/R/S/FR/LG/E/D/P(Red, Blue, Yellow, Gold, Silver, Crystal, Ruby, Sapphire, Firered, Leafgreen, Emerald, Diamond, Pearl)survive in 2007?
Answer:Yes(Definately D/P)

[Space Guard]

I sure hope they don't get forgotten. As long as Nintendo keep Pokémon Games coming then they will survive. Don't forget that Pokémon Colleseum/XD probably make people want to buy them becaouse they want there own pokémon to fight in 3D. So as long as Nintendo are alive Pokémon will probably be not forgotten. D/P will boost sales as well!!

[Fl0W:HHGURU]

I want to see a pokemon game with a huge map with every pokemon in and loads of quests, which is completely different to previous games.

[Tvan]

[color=blue] Pokemon-Red,Blue,Green,Yellow aren't popular.
These games will always be remembered for being the originals. Pokemon R/B/Y will always be respected for the fact that it was THE RPG that changed gaming forever in the late 90's.

[Lathspell]

As long as there will be pokemon games, there will be other and other pokemon, and in that case, many people to trade them from R/S/E into the newer versions, just like it happened until now, so no pokemon version will dissapear until pokemon is still popular, and that will be for a very loooooooooooooooong time.

[Black Ice]

Well, they survived 2004 and 2005, and it's already 2006, so basically, they've already survived it.

[Saq]

No, i dont think Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire wont be much popular soon. Pokemon Diamond/Pearl will offer something different for us, we wont really care much about Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire, unless of course, your still trying to capture Pokemon or finish the game. Pokemon Diamond/Pearl will be a HUGE hit from what i have read and seen. Trust me guys, when you see this one, you'll be blown away.

[Black Ice]

Well, I saw a girl holding a box with Ruby Version printed on it when I went to Wal Mart to buy a Fire Emblem game on Christmas Eve. I guess that means that some people still don't have it. And if Wal Mart has had it up for that long, maybe Ruby and Sapphire will stay up there, and someone will eventually buy it.

[nukkuz]

i hope these are good, these are the FIRST for DS if I'm not mistaken right?

[Cloud Strife]

PkMn ruby and saphirre are my favourite PkMn games, so I think that they will survive 2006.

[pokemontrainer_samuel]

They certainly will coz if you walk past every kid with a GBA or a GBASP in Malaysia they'll be playing pokemon Ruby/Sapphire. Some of them even just started playing it, so of course they'll survive
