Still great after 20 years. More like Gen Fun!
My original review got deleted so I can't go into much detail, sorry. This game is fantastic! I grew up on Gen 3 (FireRed\LG, Ruby\S\E) and wasn't sure I'd appreciate Red, but I've been loving every hour of it. Exploring Kanto is very fun and catching\battling Pokemon is just as thrilling as ever. Newer Pokemon fans may notice that you can't run, but once you have the bike it's not too big of an issue. The game's many glitches also offer an interesting experience. Missingno. and the "Mew trick" may be the most famous, but there's a lot of other odd things to discover and try out, too. Just like any other Pokemon game, it has its ups and downs, and is very enjoyable in its own right. The main caveat of buying this game in 2018, however: as always, you can't get all 150+1 Pokemon legitimately without trading between games, and good luck finding someone else near you in real life who plays Gen 1.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

I was excited when I booted this game up to see all the Japanese sprites and play through a have I haven’t before. The cartridge is slightly misaligned, which isn’t terrible. However there were little glitches in the game which ended up coming becoming a problem 7 gyms in. I can no longer swap pokemon out without the game crashing and some of the pokemon have Japanese names again. A little sad, but it will make for a solid display piece now.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Good buy
Game is in great shape and as far as I can tell this is an authentic copy. Saves perfectly since there is a new battery. Shipped fairly fast also. Little pricey but I’d rather pay for quality and authenticity.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

The original and the battery still works.
Pokemon has been a franchise that's been going on for over 20 years. The original Red and Blue is where it started in the US and despite it being rereleased for the 3DS I still like to play it on my Game Boy sometimes. The original coin cell in the game still saved the game but I don't expect it to last another year.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Perfect! 10 out of 10!
I have been wanting to get a hold of this game for forever! The save works, it's not glitchy or anything (not sure if that's possible)! I was super worried about ordering one online cause I didn't want to get burned, but I couldn't ask for better condition at this price! It's worth the buy! 😀😀Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

The item is as described and comes with a good translation for the Green version. The game does save but is obviously not an original nintendo board (i.e no save battery) My only gripe is the cartridge case has some noticeable wear and the sticker wasn't properly placed. So not exactly "new" but close enough for what it is. There is minor holographic to the sticker, which is a nice touch. Shipping was decent, the item came padded and in a protector case. Overall for $20, it's not bad, thanks!Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Would have given 5 stars but...... I wasted almost 4 hours of my life playing the game to find out I couldn't save my progress. Wish I knew that from the jump.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
