Oh, I love to pick my Gold version up and play it all the time. Granted, I can no longer save on the darn cartridge, but I can still get a good thrill out of it.
The second generation is quite possibly my favorite out of all. It just gives me such a feeling of nostalgia when I hear that music and look at those old graphics. It actually almost brings a tear to my eye. So, of course, I still play my old games.
