    When I got GB sounds, I raised it in my right hand, threw it on the ground, stamped it with my foot repeatedly, than used Typhlosion to burn it with a Flamethrower. Than I had my Munchlax eat the burned scraps. That's what I did.

  • New Bark Town... probably my favorite music from Gold and Silver just because it was the first in-game tune I heard upon starting the game, and it's always stuck with me.

    I went into a Kanto battle. It's officially the greatest battle music in any game that ever existed or ever will exist ever. No exceptions.

    Lies. It's the second greatest, after Red's theme.

  • First, I put my nostalgia goggles on. Then I went everywhere I could and battled everyone I could. I loved it. Some of the themes sound different, like where there is bass (ie dark cave/ice path). Unfortunately, thats due to the DS's different sound hardware. But it was awesome nonetheless.

  • When I got GB Sounds, I think the first place I turned it on was in Saffron City. As a casual chiptune musician, shivers ran all throughout my nervous system when I heard the 8-bit remix of Saffron City, and I haven't felt that good about listening to Game Boy-type music in years. It sounds even better when you use a very good set of headphones.

    I believe the first time I used it on my imported SS (There it is called GB Player) Was the second I walked out the door.... and got on my bike. I sat there, dancing with the music while squeeing a lot to myself.

    Heartgold, I went to goldenrod.... got slightly music ADD.... and got on my bike again. More dancing and squeeing with the nostalgia!

  • Well I haven't gotten it yet, but once I go, I doubt I will use it too often. It's too much hassle for little gain. I do fancy myself some remixes anyway.

    I did an Elite 4 run. The remixed Lance battle theme can't even compare to the original.

    I seriously don't understand how some of you guys are actually crying when using the GB Sounds. Sure, I've played the original, in fact, the most hours I've ever crammed on a Pokemon game is my Gold version, in fact, even after the 3rd Gen games came out, I still enjoyed Gold far more than my Ruby, LeafGreen, and Emerald versions.

    But still, when using the GB Sounds, I don't feel like crying or anything. It's a neat feature, but you guys are seriously crying over it!?!?!? Sure it's nostalgic, in fact, I prefer some of the original music over the crappy HG/SS remixes (such as Goldenrod), but I don't feel the need to cry just because of hearing 8-bit music.

    I don't have anything against the GB Sounds, in fact, I think it's pretty cool. They're definitely not lazy, considering how they actually bothered remixing new music that wasn't present in the originals, such as Cerulean City and Route 48.

  • I went straight to the patch of grass next to Celadon and turned it on, then ran around to start battles for no apparant reason.

    I luv G/S/C.

  • Believe me when I said Pokemon center got the most nostalgia feel out of me.
    I normally switch off the sounds, but turned it on when I plug my iPhone's earpiece in for the first time.
    It just remind me of Pokemon Yellow's song now.

  • When I first obtained GB Sounds, I immediately switched it on and headed straight for the Burned Tower.
    That tune is my favorite GSC theme of all time. =w= I could listen to the 8-bit version all day.

    Definitely Goldenrod City. I didn't mind much of the remixes, but guh. I still haven't been able to get use to the new one, so now whenever I got there for the lottery or something the first thing I do it turn on GB music.
