Do you play older Pokemon games?

  • I do. Not the GSC games so much, seeing as I can't save ;_;
    But I play RBY loads, as well as Pokemon Channel sometimes. And I was playing Colosseum yesterday. Not sure if those last two count, but still... ^_^

    The title says it all.
    Funny you should say that when you then go on to define what the older games are.


    Anyway, while I have all of them (including Pinball) except Gold, I don't play them any longer. Since they all work perfectly I could sell them for a ridiculous amount of money, heh...

  • I restart/beat blue almost every month, only becuase i dont have any other ones, and i dont have a DS yet,because i sold it before Platinum came out,because D/P got boring,getting ds for X-mas maybe sooner.

    Yes I do!! I recently started a new game on yellow, and I go back to it every once in awhile! The old games can be just as fun as the newer ones, especially if you have not played them in a long time.

  • I probably would but my only old pokemon games are Gold, Silver and Yellow and I dont have a GBA to play it with. I used to have one but I sold it because I didnt use it anymore.

  • I still have my yellow, silver, and sapphire version, gbc, and gba and they all still work perfectly. I used to play them every once in a while but now I've got an emulator running on my DS using a flashcart so I can play crystal which I never owned, or any other gb/gbc game. I also bought a used copy of emerald recently and i used a save recovery tool to transfer the save file from the copy of emerald I was playing on the computer to the actual gamepack.

    Anyway I still like playing them all, I love nostalgia!

  • I recently replaced the battery in my Silver so I've been playing that. Miraculously, both my Red and Blue are still going on their original battery, but I guess they'll run out soon (being 12 years old I don't blame them XD). I've completed Blue so many times now that it's become boring. I did get Stadium 1 & 2 very recently, so I'm playing on them at the moment. Of course, that doesn't mean I'm not playing Soul Silver - I still haven't beaten the Pokémon league! (play time: 15 hours)

    as a retro-gamer, nothing beats Gen I and II :)
    well, IV beats I
    but that's beside the point. i love the old stuff, that was my heyday :D
    Agreed. When I do play the official games, it's usually the older first or second gen games. They just had something special thatyou don't find in the more modern games. Besides, I personally think the sprites were better and far more interesting.
