What to do with 'old' games?

I will keep them as they are. I will one day finish the Battle frontier/tower in my Pearl and HeartGold. My other ones can always be used for challenges which are always lots of fun.
 
Gen IV games - Play them as normal, might breed a few pokémon for the pokétransfer.

Gen III games (Emerald and LeafGreen) - Transfer my team and other important pokémon to gen IV.
That way, I can restart emerald and leafgreen without worrying about losing my important pokémon whenever I want to do another playthrough.
 
A few years ago, I went back and played Blue version again, and it's amazing what hind sight can do to a game. Obviously, there's slightly less fun associated with the lack of discovery and it doesn't feel as new any more, but there are added challenges in trying to complete the game in a different way or simply in rediscovering why you liked the game in the first place. So... play them again, and rekindle your love for them!
 
Well, as for the DS games, I play them through once, and thats it. But the old, GB+GBA games? I replay them for challenges and stuff :3
 
My old games (especially my Silver and Ruby) will be collecting dust while I play White. I mean, lots of dust. lol
 
I'll keep them, but put them to one side and focus on Black.
I think I'll restart SS when I feel up to it, too.
 
I've pretty much forgotten about Pt/HG/SS -- I just used Pokétransfer to send all of my Pokémon over to Black. However, I may restart all three in the future, and play through them again.
 
I play them lots and lots. Duh. There's still Pokemon I haven't used yet, and I wanna raise them all. lol
 
I hardly touch the older games, I will try and continue with Diamond even though I have White though as I quite like it and I never finished it.

I'd like to transfer pokemon from my old games to Diamond and White but I dont know how to :/
 
Eh, some of them I don't even have anoymore, due to me losing them, but most of the time they just sit in a drawer or something, untouched for a long time. I do have my Ruby version in my old old DS now, since I was doing a solo Shroomish challenge on there. It was actually quite fun, and then I got Black, which I've been playing ever since. :3
 
I still play with my old games, I currently restarted my pokemon red and pokemon yellow, doing some small challenges on them and playing them late at night when I am bored. And Platinum is busy holding all of my legendaries and shinies until I finally get the chance to trade them to White (cause I'm lazyyy), and I'm doing a nuzlocke+ comic run on HG. So my games still get used. I would be playing my Sapphire and my brother's Emerald too, but they got lost and now that we moved, I'm sure they're probably thrown away or fell down a vent by now.
 
Most likely, my older games are stored away in some cabinet in my bedroom. On very rare occasion, I might take them out and play them for the nostalgic factor, otherwise they're hidden away collecting dust. I don't think I would ever give away an old game, especially one that has a lot of sentimental value, in terms of the effort I once put into completing the file.
 
Mine collect dust in a box buried in my closet. While I always have some plans to replay them for some reason, most I can't do that with. I either don't have a way to play them or the internal battery died.

For the DS games, those I tend to lose. But I do have plans to replay through Pearl once I transfer over the Pokemon I want to keep.
 
I keep my games as they are and come back to them every once in a while. I'd also use them for Pal Park/Pokeshiftin purposes.
 
Well, i just bought platinum used for some new blood{a figure of speech XD}, so I won't be giving up on the old ones just yet.
 
I'll come back to my old games fairly frequently. I still have a lot I want to do on my fourth generation games (not to mention the third generation ones and my dying/dead first and second gen games), and I'll come back to them from time to time when I have a couple of hours to spare. From a nostalgia perspective, the games only get better with age, so I certainly have no plans of quitting on them anytime soon.
