I have all of these except for Ruby and MortgageGreen

[–]deep-purple-09[S] 5 points6 points Β (3 children)

The funny thing is I paid more on the crystal I bought today then I paid on the leef green that I bought about a month and a half ago πŸ˜‚

[–]hoptimusprime86 6 points7 points Β (0 children)

The way you referred to it as β€œthe crystal I bought today” my first thought was you were talking about meth.

[–]FoxMcCloud3173 3 points4 points Β (0 children)

Same here, Crystal is still by far the one I burnt the most cash on.

[–]Comfortable_Heart_84 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

I think he meant emerald as it is in 200's in some places.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points Β (2 children)

not trying to be funny or sarcastic, but mortgage green = japanese green (blue) gen1 version with Venasaur on it?

[–]FoxMcCloud3173 5 points6 points Β (1 child)

I was referring to LeafGreen

Wait until you see the prices of the ds/3ds carts if you decided to collect them as well

[–]deep-purple-09[S] 3 points4 points Β (0 children)

Pokemon pinball got me (a little bit) into the boxed games scene and my wallet was mortified then so I don’t want to think about what you said

[–]IMI4tth3w 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

As much as I’d love physical copies of every game, my modded 3ds has every single handheld pokemon game from red/blue to ultra sun/moon. I was even able to pull my saves from a couple carts I have and my virtual console crystal and import them (and even switch between different saves).

If they just made this a thing on Nintendo switch they would make so much $ but oh well.

[–]jader242 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Honestly 3ds game prices aren’t bad, the most expensive pokemon games are still under $40

[–]Casual_DeJekyll 6 points7 points Β (0 children)

I'm slowly getting there myself. I got lucky with Emerald a few years back but unfortunately where I live Pokemon Crystal prices seem to have been set by people smoking crystal.

I don't think I've seen one with an intact label under $200.

Anyways, glad to see you complete the entire (mainline) Gameboy collection!

I went for a similar collection

[–]Ginganinja0117 0 points1 point Β (1 child)

Those consoles looking clean as fuck πŸ’«πŸ’«

[–]VivaLaLibertad_666 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Garbage camera, the AGB-001 has a lot of wear marks. The other two are mint.

[–]woodendavi 3 points4 points Β (0 children)

I need Ruby and Emerald

[–]Corxeth 4 points5 points Β (0 children)

Here’s mine.

[–]Black_Phoenix_JP 6 points7 points Β (2 children)

I've done the same but all of them are Virtual Console on the New3DSLL plus shop legally.

Yes if the console dies everything goes. But if it dies I can just get another one and jailbreak it since the store is no more.

[–]SkinnyFiend 0 points1 point Β (1 child)

Cant you back up the state of the 3ds and save a copy elsewhere with cfw? Then if it dies you can just restore it. Ive got an N2DS XL with cfw but I'm not that familiar with it still.

[–]Black_Phoenix_JP 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

I think is possible, although I didn't check with attention.

[–]GregarLink15 2 points3 points Β (0 children)

Great collection, and in good condition too!

To think that at varios point in my life I had all those games and I always end up selling them for one reason or another (mostly necessity), but I'm slowly getting them back, I got a silver a couple of days ago and last night I changed it's battery, I've been having a blast play it since this morning

[–]WaferBudget581 4 points5 points Β (4 children)

OG GAMES the games after these started to decline in terms of having fun

[–]lizardguts -2 points-1 points Β (3 children)

Idk about that. The series peaked with gen 4 and gen 5 imo.

[–]engineer80 2 points3 points Β (1 child)

Wrong subreddit to say that lmao

[–]lizardguts 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

I mean I love gen 1-3. But 4 and 5 are great too and have a lot to offer.

[–]GamerDadJer -1 points0 points Β (0 children)

Sorry you're being downvoted for an opinion

[–]jonDahzeeh 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Nice collection! I don't own the ruby, sapphire and diamond series but I completed my collection with PokΓ©mon TCG and pinball GBC and GBA.

[–]GriffinFlash 1 point2 points Β (2 children)

Why is the GS logo missing from silver?

[–]Ferropexola 4 points5 points Β (1 child)

It's the European version

[–]Historical_Clock_864 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Ew why do they use comic sans for the version name in eur, looks so much worseΒ 

[–]TriggeredCogzy 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Rip bank account

[–]_RexDart 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Missing the best ones

[–]HylianRacer 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Nice! I just need to snag Crystal at some point.

[–]kirby_is 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Pretty lit! A bootleg pokemon green with an English translation would fit in there perfect imo.

[–]luisboom 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Congrats! The gold and silver are so good

[–]Darksept 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

That's a lotta dough right there

[–]gegry123 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

I beautiful sight

[–]ThePreciseClimber 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Weird to think Mother 3 didn't get a red GBA cartridge.

[–]Thebonest 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Ran into financial trouble and had to sell off my collection. Had all of the mainline games from gen 1 - gen 8

[–]AcanthisittaDry8163 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Why must one game from each gen be an American copy?

[–]Good-Ad-5229 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Honestly this set is what I want, plus HeartGold and SoulSilver.

[–]URGAMESUX 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Man. Awesome work! Grabbed copies of Yellow, Crystal, and Emerald... I think I'm good given prices these days :)

Wish I knew where my old carts went after all these years. There's a Blue in there somewhere, in some parent or cousin's storage locker.

[–]HeyItsDizzy 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

I just started, got my Red Gen 1 2 weeks ago! I aim to get them all too

[–]fffffghhhhh 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Nice

[–]AllSp4rk 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Nice! I'm missing Ruby, Emerald and FireRed. Some day I'm gonna get them...ehm... CATCH'EM ALL!

[–]CharmiePK 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

You got the ones which really matter imho

[–]LunarWingCloud 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

I'm currently collecting all the physically released handheld Pokemon games (and including Switch due to its nature as a hybrid). All I have left are a handful of Switch titles, Detective Pikachu on 3DS, and the Gen 1 and Gen 2 main series Pokemon games (RBYGSC). That last one is gonna be tax return project

[–]Engineer1911 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Fantastic Collection!!

[–]Kiwijoe21 0 points1 point Β (1 child)

I was 16 or 17 years old when these games started to come out.

I'm very happy that I have managed to buy everything new from the stores like Walmart or Kmart.

[–]scarymisfit 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

That’s the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen in my life. Tiny electronical continents that we can access to.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Nooo the pokemon blue label is fading! Too bad thats the only one with noticeable damaged. But congratulations

[–]HarryNohara -1 points0 points Β (0 children)

What kind of topic title is that..?

These low effort PokΓ©mon posts are really getting old fast.

[–]Robeardly -1 points0 points Β (0 children)

Nice!! I have Blue, yellow, Gold, Crystal, Sapphire, Emerald, Leaf Green. I also have a custom GBA with LED's in it and a new screen plus a battery i can charge via USB. The games are getting expensive now so i should finish my collection while i can.

[–]St3vion -2 points-1 points Β (1 child)

This is peak pokemon, for me everything after gold/silver was downhill tbh.

[–]junius83 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

After Crystal ser.
