Took all my games out of their protective cases and dumped them out on the table. Sometimes it’s just satisfying to rummage through a bunch of carts, hold them in your hands, and admire the label art. Does anyone else periodically do this with their physical games?

I never grabbed Crystal. In hindsight - I should have, probably not something I’ll buy for what it goes for now.

I see, which game is your favourite? :)

Pokémon? Probably Red, it was my first (bought when it came out) and I have the most nostalgia for that one.

Of all those carts? I don’t think I could choose. Probably just plain old Tetris, but there are so many great games.

I just found two great rom hacks online you may be interested in if you haven’t already, Pokémon - Red Version++, and Pokémon - Blue Version Kaizo. While the former stays true to the original with added QoL improvements that make it more playable, the latter provides a challenging rearrangement of the classic that makes me feel like I’m playing Pokémon for the first time again.

Nice! I had seen a couple rom hacks for the originals that add the QoL changes, but I don’t remember seeing the rearranged game. I’ll have to look into it!
