My Yellow has the pictures all messed up (instead of sprites, there are black squares qith red stripes) and my Silver is like new, if we don't look at the cartridge...

Sydian March 27th, 2010 8:39 AM

My RBY and GSC all work. The day Silver and Red die, I will explode into a million tears, though. So everyone must comfort me.

Hmm, that doesn't sound good. I'm currently playing Gold on a GBA and ever since I got it, I'ts never stopped working. I'm getting a GBC from a friend for oldschoolness as well, if I use his will it kill my game??

Also, does anyone know why some games seem to last longer than most? I hadn't played my gold in years and when I just started it up again it wanted me to re-enter the time because it had forgotten, would that somehow be relevant to why my game hasn't died yet?

GBC wont kill it, i use mine all the time bc i just love the feel of it, just i dont reccomend GB Pocket

I do :)

It's a mystery how my Gold even still works, seeing as how it's 10 years old. I thought the internal battery would have died by now, but it hasn't. Not that i'm complaining.

Interesting, my silver and red version are my two great versions too. If they die on me I might just do that too. My gold has already died on me so I'm a bit scared. I have all the 2nd and 1st gen games besides blue. I still don't know why I don't have one.

Alice April 2nd, 2010 10:23 PM

The only ones that have died on me are Crystal, and the tcg game. They work, but won't save anymore.

Eurydice April 2nd, 2010 10:41 PM

all mine work except a copy of yellow (which works when it wants to) and a copy of silver. but i have another copy of both of them so i dont really mind at the moment.

uchiha sasuke April 3rd, 2010 2:10 AM

I used to have blue, red, gold + silver.

I gave blue and gold to my cousin some years ago.
Anyway, the other two, silver and red are still working.
By the way, one annoying thing that happened to my gold during its prime time was that a coloured ho-oh appeared instead of the normal one when you switch on the game and my saved game was lost. I know that it's offtopic, but it's the only bad I can remember from that time. The rest were amazing, although I couldn't even fully understand english and I didn't have internet to help me!

mewbaby April 3rd, 2010 2:39 AM

i still have all the old games
blue,red,yellow,gold,silver and crystal - in fact got all of the versions but not green as it never came out in europe :(

SpawnHyuuga April 3rd, 2010 4:47 PM

My Silver I got from my former best friend's sister works just fine up to this point, of course I wanted to beat my sister after she deleted my former save file! Oh well, that's what Brainboys are for. I'm ashamed my best Pokemon friend used to be Typhlosion but then I abandoned it. :(

RyeChoo April 4th, 2010 1:03 PM

I'm like the luckiest person in the world. Yellow still works and so does Silver and Crystal. I even have the TCG one.

Underoos April 4th, 2010 1:18 PM

Let's see...Gold and Silver work. I never bought Crystal/traded to my friends XD Red and Yellow work. I don't have Blue either, because I traded that to a friend for Red because I wanted the Charizard on the front of my game lmao.

SethOmega April 4th, 2010 2:17 PM

I actually have both a Gold and Silver. I'm trying to sell them though.

DXrobots April 4th, 2010 2:45 PM

I've got all the games except the 4th generation soul silver and emerald and they all work:

Hantsuki April 4th, 2010 3:05 PM

Yes. I still have my first game, Pokemon Silver, along with the box that I bought it in. Same goes for Gold and Crystal as well as the other games that succeeded and preceded them. However, I don't have the 4th generation games nor the remakes of the Johto region for I do not own a DS. The only handheld I own is a Game Boy Advance (two actually) which I can play all the other games on.

ThatTrainer April 4th, 2010 3:16 PM

yes.
I never played them much after i beat them .

kevcrash April 4th, 2010 7:18 PM

My Yellow and Crystal are still perfectly intact (:

Fire-Red April 6th, 2010 3:58 AM

The only one that died was silver (got dusty :( ) But my blue, red, yellow, gold and Crystal still work and I still play them.

Meadow April 17th, 2010 5:12 AM

I have Silver, but it can't save though.

TheBlackRose April 17th, 2010 11:26 AM

I have a working copy of each of the 2nd Gen (It's the only Gen I have a complete collection for). I have two Silver copies because I left my Gameboy and Silver outside on accident T_T -- Gameboy suffered so casualties oddly. So I have all three and a saveless Silver.

R.I.P. Good Game.

seanthelawn April 18th, 2010 3:04 AM

My Red, Blue and Yellow still work. My Gold and Silver batteries died, but I changed them and they work fine. Crystal's still running on the original battery.

Code April 18th, 2010 3:08 AM

They all work. ^_^
Cept for that crummy chinese pirated one, though....
