  • Weeeeell.
    My boyfriend had a good 600 total but on a game before that he'd logged about 100 and restarted, and gave his Crystal to me bc he loves me and knows it's my favorite game AND gave me his SP with it.
    I started a new game. I have about 20 hours logged so far...it's still working AMAZINGLY.
    I will cry if it restarts, or stops saving.
    I.
    Will.
    CRY.

    oooh and I dropped the SP WITH the Crystal in it and on in the pond in front of my house, stood there shocked for 20 seconds then fished it out...and it still worked!
    This was about a month ago too and it's still fine.
    Only thing is when it's 1pm here it says it's 3:42am on the game and so the time is screwed up bigtime and unchangeable.

  • I've had my Pokemon Gold for a good 8-9 years, and it's still going. I've restarted it multiple times, and the one I am currently on has around 85 hours or something. I'm actually quite surprised at the number of people that still have their G/S/C working, as anyone I know (except for my cousin) had their Gold die a LONG time ago.

    I had countless hours on my Gold game, I used to battle my friends all the time (Though my team consisted of 6 dupped lvl 100 crobats xD )

    I had probably 100-200 hours on it. Though, my friend who stopped playing pokemon a long time ago, I randomly looked at his games he had 400 hours on gold and silver.

    My Crystal still works though :D

  • I had close to 200 hours on my Silver before it died. I also had all three legendary dogs that I captured within an hour of one another, without using cheats. I was so proud of that moment. I cloned those suckers like it was my job.

    A week later...gone. =(

    My Red & Yellow still work. I never had Blue. However, my cousin left me with his Silver/Gold(doesn'twork)/Blue/Red/Crystal/Ruby games to keep for him about four years ago. Since he won't even talk to me now, I'm contemplating making them miiiiine...>_>

  • On my Silver cartridge, I'd played for about 400 hours, not including restarts. I think it died in 2008, though I didn't bother to find out how to fix it 'til pretty recently.

    Max time (Crystal version):
    700h-900h
    Somewhere in between. B the W, this is on VBA.

  • Blue and Gold both got deleted, had about 100 hours combined I believe.

    Yellow has 15 hours maybe, never finished it...or maybe I finished it and accidentally deleted it, can't remember.

    Silver has ~ 121 hours, and is still fine, I booted it up the other day to make sure.

    Haven't checked on Red yet...

  • I have like 600 or something on crystal still lol. I played through blue a million times, so I probably actually have like 2000 hours, but silver is the only one that doesn't save anymore. I probably only had like 100.

    On gold I saved my game at the top of Mt. Silver at excatly 251 hours, I then left the game completely.
    It mysteriously disappeared a few weeks later, I still have hope that its somewhere in my house.
