Does anyone here still have working 2nd Gen games?
 
Fortunately, I have been lucky thus far.

None of my 2nd Gen games have died yet, but as a precaution, I recently purchased a Crystal Version that has a replaced memory battery.

All of the games I bought myself still work. That is, Pokémon Red, Blue, Yellow (x2), Silver, Crystal. I also have my cousin's Silver. That was dead when I got it though. I bought all my games when they were released too. I've had them this far (some over ten years) and everything's still good.

Yeah, most of mine work. A couple of them had their internal clock die, but that's about it. My Crystal works like a charm.

Lycaeus February 23rd, 2010 7:26 AM

My Crystal, Red, Blue, and Yellow all still work(:
My Gold and Silver died though :/

My Yellow was actually the first game to go, but my Silver version (only Gen 2 game I own) still works. It is only on it's second full play-through (my first one was reset about halfway through because I couldn't figure out Pryce's gym, and my second one was infected with PokeRus, which was poorly implemented in Gen 2).

All mine still work fine I have all of them by the way started playing Silver again to gear up for soul silver

My silver is dead it died last night..My gold is still working a bit

Legobricks February 23rd, 2010 4:25 PM

As long as one knows how to change the battery (& have the means to do it), the game doesn't necessarily ever die unless one physically damages it.

All my GB/C games (R, B, Y, S, C) are still fine and on original batteries.

DGexe February 23rd, 2010 4:38 PM

Both of my GenI games still work, but Crystal is dead as a doornail (so-to-speak; I don't have the neccessary tools or skills to fix it).

Gold is still up and running, however! :B

Lt_Nite February 23rd, 2010 4:42 PM

Nope my Silver died bout a couple months ago and since I've been meaning to go buy a new one to play before HG/SS. Sad too all that time gone =[

TrinityLimit February 23rd, 2010 4:42 PM

all my games are working well, even my yellow is still alive :D

Usagi-Chan~ February 23rd, 2010 4:51 PM

My Gold, Silver and Crystal versions are all still working~

シルバー February 23rd, 2010 4:53 PM

My Crystal still works.
Red and Japanese Silver died a long time ago.

Cilerba February 23rd, 2010 5:26 PM

Wow, I still have a LOT of working 2nd gen games.
  • Yellow: Special Pikachu Edition
  • Red (x2)
  • Blue
  • Gold (x2)
  • Silver
  • Crystal (x2)

Wow, I pretty much have all of the released Gameboy games ^_^ Lucky me!

Okami Chi February 23rd, 2010 5:41 PM

None of my Pokemon games are dead yet. I used to whip out the 2nd or 1st gen. somtimes for fun, but now with the remakes they are just for collection.

Atlas February 23rd, 2010 6:32 PM

I have two copies of yellow now, one(my perfect pokedex one) has a bad battery, and the other is still working.

My copy of gold still works, but I haven't touched it in ages.

~RNC~ February 23rd, 2010 6:40 PM

I love those games!! I have a couple of copies of each and all of them still work just fine!! :)

Gary, the Magic Fairy February 23rd, 2010 11:43 PM

Crystal worked in early '09/late '08 when I checked.

fishrocker February 26th, 2010 11:11 AM

My Blue, Yellow, and Crystal still work great. My Red was stolen 5 years ago and it worked then. My Silver did die however, about 5 years ago.

Skweetis February 26th, 2010 11:22 AM

I've had all 3 games for a decade and they work fine.

Tudsworth February 26th, 2010 11:49 AM

My Silver and Crystal carts work fine, though the former had to have its battery replaced recently.

GSCyndaquil19 February 28th, 2010 6:23 PM

MegaSlowBro. February 28th, 2010 6:26 PM

I lost my Silver, but my Crystal is still going strong ^_^

pauldan00b March 1st, 2010 6:46 AM

I had a copy of Silver and Crystal from back when they first came out, but I had lost them a few years ago. I got a Crystal Version used about two weeks ago, and it seems to work perfectly fine. I'm unsure as to whether the battery was replaced or not, but it seems to work normally.

Editman March 1st, 2010 7:24 AM

My Gold works, Via the Gameboy, however whenever i play it in, pokemon stadium 2, the data corrupts
