2nd Gen The originals or the remakes?

I dunno, I think I prefer the remakes. But I still utterly love the originals- it's just, the remakes brought in almost everything that was amazing about 4th gen. The originals were fine, but... I dunno. They were quicker to play through, sure, but that's not always what I want.
Although the originals win in terms of nostalgia, for obvious reasons.
 
Despite how much nostalgia comes from the originals, I gotta say I like the remakes more. R/B/Y vs. FR/LG could probably go either way, but HG/SS is better than G/S/C without a doubt. The bottom screen in HG/SS was perfect and you had to option of always having running shoes on. It was the little things in HG/SS that made it better. I did, however, not really like how they changed Red's Espeon to a Lapras and how it's hailing in the battle.
 
As nice as it is to see remakes, the originals will always have a place in my heart. I just love the original graphics and the nostalgia feel that they will always give me.​
 
I prefer the remakes over the originals. I wouldn't say I dislike the originals, though ofc. I played them a lot as a kid, and they remind me so much of the good 'ol times.
