do you play old games like red or blue
 
personaly i dont play a game that old i like a pokemon game partly fot the gameplay and graphics and old games like red and blue take away from the fun because the graphics are bad

Tsuki~ February 7th, 2009 6:16 PM

Heck, I can't imagine living without Red and Blue! I love playing the classic games. I have a pretty darn good file on Yellow Version. I don't blame you though. Once you do get past the graphics, you can really enjoy the game.

OokamiShipper February 7th, 2009 6:38 PM

Yep, I totally agree with Tsuki.
Red and Blue might have old graphics, but they're both really fun, and nostalgic.
I absolutly love my Red file and my Yellow file too, I couldn't imagine deleting them.

hiildz' February 7th, 2009 6:40 PM

I still got my Pokemon Yellow with my lvl 100 Pikachu locked up in my safe :D

But I still believe the best thing that happened to Pokemon were the Running Shoes..haha

I can't really get used to play the old-timers again, they seem so bone-crushingly slow D:

Heather February 7th, 2009 7:03 PM

Yea the old games always bring back memories. I had every single game before intil i sold them cuz they lost their memory.

machomuu February 7th, 2009 7:24 PM

Yeah, like I remember deleting my brothers game that had both Mew and Mewtwo level 100 :)...:(.
Either way, RBGY were and still are the beginning of a revolution, nostalgic and great to the end :D!

west February 7th, 2009 8:02 PM

yeah i play it but not as much. its fun and nostalgic.

BenjiTheKid February 7th, 2009 8:33 PM

I don't own any of the games at the moment- but, whenever I can, I enjoy playing the old ones. The graphics are bad, yeah. But, the memories are good. :]

Bibliophibian February 7th, 2009 9:46 PM

I do. Actually, I just traded all my Pokemon from Blue to Red through Pokemon Stadium today and started a new file.

Personally I'd rather play through R/B/Y than through D/P most of the time. D/P might look better, but I've never really liked them as much as the originals.

deliriouspurple February 7th, 2009 10:09 PM

I played it not so much now because of the old graphics but it brings me back memories.

Late February 7th, 2009 10:09 PM

I play red and blue as much as other games. I have yellow on my phone so I play that when I am going somewhere.

angelsavoir February 7th, 2009 11:00 PM

I still play yellow. I just started a new game, around two months ago.I dont play everyday or anything, maybe twice a week. On my way to getting the third badge. lol

I'm exactly like angelsavoir execpt i'm using lameboy a gameboy emulator for DS and I'm up to the second gym.I really like the game and think Misty looks pretty hot.

Archer February 8th, 2009 3:51 AM

I prefer them to FRLG in a lot of ways. I don't know whether to sell my Yellow in a few years or not. I have the original packaging and manual, too.

It's hilarious how the game was always "Special Pikachu Edition", but it adopted Yellow as a name.

You didn't tell your customers that, did you? XD

Anyways, to be back on topic, I find the older games better because of one simple thing - it's challenging. Don't get me wrong, some other PKMN games are tough, but the old R/B/Y were pretty tough. All the gymleaders pokes are way higher levels than the ones in FR/LG. Erica's pokemon were already Lv. 30! In FR/LG, her highest level Pokemon is Lv. 29.

Underoos February 8th, 2009 7:46 AM

I have all of them. And (I'm so happy about this) they all still work. It'll be a sad day when I can't go back and play them again...(more directed towards G/S)

Superjub February 8th, 2009 2:35 PM

I was playing Yellow like...three days ago? My team is Mewtwo, Mew, Pikachu, Charizard, blastoise and Venasaur :D

Anyway, I am trying to get 150 Pokemon on my Crystal so I'm playing that XD Only 10 more to go! :D

So yeah, I still play the old games mainly because Yellow you have a stalkingfollowing Pikachu and because the old games bring back so much nostalgia :) Also, Crystal is my favourite Pokemon Game :)

Editman February 8th, 2009 2:38 PM

Yep i'm playing blur right now imma put them on Pokemon stadium so i can crush them

Bigboy February 8th, 2009 6:49 PM

It seems to me that the old games are more fun than the newer ones. I still get the thrill of playing the ones, but I don't get it from new ones.

Vincent. February 10th, 2009 4:45 AM

for me,
yes because it brings back memories where I used to like pokemon so much! and i like old school tough!

bumbam February 10th, 2009 6:21 AM

fist gen is loads better than 3/4 gen but second gen is still the best

Wulf February 10th, 2009 7:19 AM

I hate it when people can't play a game because of outdated graphics. Graphics never make the game for me. Now, I used to play Blue and Yellow to death, not so much anymore. Infact, I barely ever play Pokemon theses day. It just feels like I'm doing the same thing over and over now...

"Shadow Lugia" February 10th, 2009 8:58 AM

My Red game broke (pity, it was my first ever videogame), but I still play Blue or Yellow, occasionally.

oceanblack February 10th, 2009 10:48 AM

Once i complete a pokemon collection of X version, its hard to go back. Ive had 151 on Red, 251 on Silver, etc. Pearl could take me a while though, lol...

dc_united February 10th, 2009 2:19 PM

I've been playing yellow a bit, but it just seems so slow compared to the Gen II+ games. I used to have an awesome file on my blue version, but me and a friend transferred and traded to each others stadiums and G/S/C's... I still have all those bangin' level 90's and 100's on my silver. Now, if only I could FIND my silver...
