My Silver has made it around 150 hours, the longest I have put into any. (I restart games too much to get a long time in them)

Legobricks December 20th, 2009 7:45 AM

I think about 150–200 in Crystal, and the battery is still live.

I've got a soldering iron so I could always change it if I want to anyway.

My Silver died last night, I had about 40 hours on there..

BHwolfgang December 20th, 2009 12:30 PM

I was somewhere between my 400th and 500th hour in Silver before it died on me. I remember being really sad that day; it almost felt like someone died because of my general mood. :O

dozo December 20th, 2009 4:46 PM

I had roughly 150-200 hours on my Silver & Yellow
Though I didn't have Crystal long enough to have many hours on it..

Zeta Sukuna December 20th, 2009 5:16 PM

450-600 hours, and Gold is still working fine. But it's starting to go, I think.

null1024 December 21st, 2009 1:45 PM

My Gold is still running, but I dunno exactly how long it's been.

I know I've gone through it 3 times already, so 22*3+15=86 hours for me. I got it from someone else a while ago who has beaten it a couple times well, so I can't do much better than that as an estimate.

And even if it dies, I can just swap out the save battery and Gameshark all my Pokemon back in. I'd have to start my adventure over, but after I beat it again, I'll probably just restart anyway.

Ayselipera December 21st, 2009 4:07 PM

I have Yellow, Blue, Gold, Silver, and Crystal. They are all still thriving. ;)

InvisibleGoldenBulbasaur December 21st, 2009 7:17 PM

545:23 on my poor dead Silver, 244:39 on my poor (almost) dead Crystal.

129:53 on my Gold, whose battery was replaced a few months ago. :D (It was my TM farm before my other two died, so I dunno how many hours it had in total.)

R/B/Y all work perfectly fine. My Red has about 60 hours on it, and my former speedrun Blue has 18 or so hours. Yellow, I haven't played it since 2001 but it works >.>;

hectord25 December 23rd, 2009 5:35 PM

These cartrigdes die?I`m playing Gold with 170 hours,but this never hace stopped of saving.

MizuJosh December 24th, 2009 8:29 AM

I think my Silver is dead. It restarts every once in a while. But it could be because I hacked it...

However, my Crystal still works (though it doesn't like to cooperate with my Pokémon Stadium 2 GBT).

Lord Varion January 6th, 2010 3:24 AM

Aint dead yet?
put its getting glitchy ... soo i might be diening soon

Skweetis January 16th, 2010 5:07 AM

I played Crystal for 200+ hours in just my original file, had it for almost a decade and it works perfectly fine. Silver does too.

JaniWesker January 16th, 2010 12:26 PM

About 300 hours in Silver (last save).

Weird January 18th, 2010 2:04 PM

My Gold and Silver cartridges are playing fine, but my Crystal cartridge stopped working after 150 hours ( my neightbour destroyed it with one of his crazy ideas)

Jayster23 January 19th, 2010 1:16 AM

I only played Sliver for about 150 hours give or take a few hours. I had all 251 pokemon and then i lost it for a week when i found it it was corrupted I threw my GBA and broke it :(

DGexe January 19th, 2010 1:18 AM

I can't remember my big, main game of Crystal... there was a long hiatus between sessions, and sometime during that it stopped saving. Didn't know what happened, thought I had restarted on my own and "forgot"...

Play again, got... 8 hours or less. .___.;

barnsleynut January 20th, 2010 3:20 PM

never had one fail on me yet!

I Tried Voodoo Once January 20th, 2010 6:42 PM

my GBC died before my games lol, my crystal works still after 700 hours (between me and my brother)
and my yellow has 237 hours (Me )

¡No Hablo Inglés! January 20th, 2010 8:48 PM

I had somewhere around 150 hours on Silver, then I didn't play it for a year or so and when I decided to go back and check it, the battery was dead.

Gold, however, still works fine with about 70 hours on it.

ChrisTom January 21st, 2010 11:31 AM

I am very happy to say my memory has not gone yet!

Ss4gogeta0 January 21st, 2010 4:20 PM

more or less i put atleast a couple thousand hours into pokemon gold...... 800 in yellow and 300 approamatly into blue

SuperJames January 31st, 2010 2:41 PM

About 300 on gold

And in that time i never saw a shinny =(

Zeta Sukuna January 31st, 2010 4:18 PM

I never lost my ability to save, however, I did lose one save file that had 213 hours on it. It had my prized Lv. 100 Meganium and Lv. 91 Ho-oh on it. I was trying to get my pokemon to Lv. 100, and it got deleted somehow. But I can still save. I know I didn't delete the save file, and I didn't know anyone who would do that to me, so... yeah.

-Jake January 31st, 2010 5:29 PM

256 on Crystal...
15 days of my childhood dedicated to Pokemon. *shot*
My Silver Version barely had any time on it but it would never save... it was weird. :|
