26, and I still play Pokemon. Started out with the original blue and red on the gb, and now, I feel like a crack addict for buying it again. Oh well, Pokemon Gold/Silver is the best one....
Oh, and G/S was compatible with both the GB and GBC? Argh...I remember buying a GBC (for around $100) just for Pokemon. And the Pokewalker - amazing - I might just pick up another Pokewalker...and I wonder if Nintendo will start selling just the Pokewalker...because I envision a lot of lost ones. (I usually walk 2000+ steps, it's a very little amount...so yeah, I have some time for walking...)
I love Pokemon Pikachu, although...so that's my basis to for pre-ordering PKMN SS.
Pokemon G/S is a Gameboy Color game, not a Gameboy game. The packages says "Gameboy Color" on the side, not to mention all the Pokemon are in colors. In the original one, they were pretty much black and white.
But I love the nostalgia of Pokemon, but buying a new game won't really do that. Buying another copy of Pokemon Gold or Silver would do that (since I lost my Silver cartridge years ago and I lent out my Crystal one to a friend). I enjoyed playing Gold and Silver as much as the next guy, but that's just because Pokemon can be numbingly addictive, depending on whether you're into the gameplay or not. The newer Pokemon games don't bring back any nostalgia, they're just another game. The older ones will give me flashbacks of my childhood and a crave to play them again.
