    When I was out today looking through an outdoor marketplace today and guess what I saw? You guessed it Pokemon Red, Silver and an original Gameboy, after seeing them I simply had to pick them up and ended up doing so through impulse and excellent childhood memories more than anything else.

    Anyone else gone through a similar experience?

    Umm... yeah, actually. When I heard HG/SS was coming out, I played Gold, and got up to Blue in three days. So yeah, for three whole days, I was lost in nostalgia, playing a game file that was two or so years old that was from around Ecruteak. So yeah, I say I was caught up by it.

    Still not the best gen, imo, though.

    Nostalgia? I never stopped playing 80's and 90's games.
    Same here. :laugh:
    Though the effect is best if you make sure to play music from the corresponding era at the same time.

    well, I haven't been caught like that, (yet ironically, my youngest brother bought some N64 games just recently), but if I see an old game I dont have at a reasonable price... then we'll see.
