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?

    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!
