I got my old game boys and have been playing pokemon gold on the gameboy color. I also have red and blue.
But, I want to play through the rest of them on original hardware up until the switch. I plan to use flash carts or some kind of mods to play the games as they are quite expensive.
Please let me know if there are any flaws in my plan.
Gameboy Advance SP (I like this as it’s backlit and will let me play my other gameboy games)
- Pokemon Emerald
New 3dsxl/2dsxl
- the rest of the games I’d like to play them all using flash carts or software mods. Since these games are not as old I’ll buy the original if they are under $100
Is it as simple as picking up these two consoles to play all the pre-switch pokemon games? Is there a better non-emulation option?
Luckily I still have my copy of red, blue, and gold. I also have my gameboy pocket and color.
I plan to pickup a 3ds xl, and I’ll emulate the ds titles. I’ll probably emulate emerald on my steamdeck unless I get a 3ds first.
I was using fast forward tools for red, but it didn’t feel as fun. I did the same on gold, but stopped and switched to playing on the gameboy color.
Fast forward, made me feel even more impatient to progress where the normal mode just let me play here and there.
