Now that HGSS has been released in Japan and is well on its way for the US and Europe, will you still play the original GSC series?

Since none of mine are dead yet, I'm sure I will. Silver will always be my favorite.

Well, I'm just hoping HGSS isn't a let down like I thought FRLG was. I mean, at first, I thought they were great games, but after a while, I realised I much preferred the older games, and I find myself playing RBY more often than FRLG. They're not terrible games, but they are my least favorite in the series.

HGSS does look more promising than FRLG did, though. Anyway, I'll probably really enjoy it, but I just don't see myself never playing GSC again. I frequently go through phases with games and I'll only play a certain game for about two weeks, maybe a little longer, so I'll eventually get the itch for GSC.

I'm sure I'll go back to it every now and then, but with HG/SS I'll probably play it a lot less than I did before. Plus I also played the crap out of the original G/S/C when I was younger and I first bought them so yeah. :p
Apparently my old sig was too big or something so I'm just putting this here because I'm too lazy to actually replace it properly right now.

Lulz, what Niprop said, apart from the fact it's not that I can't find a replacement, I just haven't come around to trying and I'm not sure if I can be bothered, you know? If they still worked, I would play them. After all, I didn't stop playing R/B/Y when FR/LG came out! ^_^

Why of course. The reason, at first, that I didn't like HG/SS is because the originals, GSC, wouldn't be so popular. But, yes I'll continue to play my Pokemon Gold and Crystal. My Gold's battery dried up two years ago, but I still have it with me, because it was my first video game, so it holds alot of good memories for me. Same thing whenever my Crystal dies. I might download a Gold ROM, so I can continue to play it whenever Crystal dies.

I still play Crystal. I laugh at what the PokéBall items look like, though xD

The best thing about Johto are the starters. And Stantler.

I've actually been playing Gold and Crystal in preparation for SoulSilver whenever it decides to get here. I did that for Platinum, too, only I was playing Diamond and Pearl like a mad man instead.

I dunno.
Maybe ill play on on VBA on my PC when i feel like it. Its a great time killer.
HG/SS Looks REALLY awesome, but I didn't had as much as hype I had with platinum. (Was counting days till it comes out and got it a week later.)
I'm not that hyped over HG/SS as much as i like the 2nd gen... I'm still hoping for a Crystal remake even that its not going to come.
Nothing spectacular to see here, move along now.

Probably to a certain extent, but certainly not as much as before. I'd replay for nostalgia purposes, and I'm sure there will be that one thing in HGSS that I wish was carried through from GSC. Aaand I might as well have my final moments with it while it's on its deathbed, waiting for its battery to die.

Basically, what everyone else who calls themself a Pokemon fan is saying - heck yeah! Gold is and will always be one oF my favorite video games of all time, and you guys have now inspired me to start back playing it (I was kind of in a lag) in prep for HG/SS. Sounds like a good idea to me.

h hell, I will ALWAYS go back to my roots. I have played Crystal more than any other Pokemon game, and it is my absolute favorite. I will always have amazing memories with it, and I will always favor it as my favorite Pokemon game. I simply can't wait for HG/SS, but Crystal will always, always be my pick. And I will be playing it just as often now, as I did then. I am in SUCH a huge hype for this game to come out! It's going to be an amazing game! It's going to be just like the release of Gold and Silver all over again! The good times are gonna come back!
