Pokemon Yellow:

the best of what generation 1 had to offer.
reworked sprites, a following pikachu on the overworld map,
and now in full color! I couldn't believe it as a kid... IN COLOR.
{the things we take for granted lol}
many hours i sunk into this game;
late nights with a small flashlight under the blankets, the cartridge
smashed around in my backpack to battle or trade with friends after school.

.battles, consisted of simplistic rock-paper-scissors type mechanics,
(a bit of luck and a gimmick wish for victory lol) [teams of 6 vs 6, one on one]
..with trades, pokemon meant more than digipets,
each monster representative of hours spent hunting in the game +rare encounter rates...
also worth noting, the game is compatible with pokemon stadium (nintendo 64),
super game boy (super nintendo), & the gameboy player (gamecube).
we would battle our monsters on the big screen crt television we had...

one of the best RPGs of all time,
definitely in the top 10. period.
to argue otherwise would be a fools errand,
a simple series that spawned a global phenomenon
with millions of sales that continue on to this day.

if you somehow have never played any of the original gameboy games,
I highly recommend that you take a play through kanto,
and see for yourself why the series became so insanely famous.
if you've already played the games & you're looking to relive a childhood memory,
the music alone is worth the price of admission.

happy gaming

Ok, but has some issues.

The game has a few glitches. 1. Storing Pokemon in Bill's PC results in the name disappearing and being replaced by a symbol (Name is gone forever). 2. When withdrawing the Pokemon stored, it's name is still replaced by the symbol. 3. Sometimes when trying to go back into Bill's PC after storing or withdrawing Pokemon, the screen will go white and freeze.Read full review

Excellent game!

This is the best Generation-1 game of the franchisee. Includes more content than Red and Blue. Pikachu's function here is of a tamagochi. In this version, you can obtain all three starters. And of course, is the only game out of the 3 gen 1 games that comes with a mini game. It is simply because all of these things that you can feel free to skip to buy the previews two. Overall best game of its time.Read full review

Phenomenal

Game runs as expected with no issues. The one I used to own in the past was stolen from me, so it's amazing to finally have the Yellow version in my possession again.

Works well and is in good condition

Very little damage to game card, label has some scratches and/smudges but the item is used so that is to be expected after 20+ years. This is actually in better shape than most I've procured. Still works, which is the main thing.Read full review

The gameboy game was exactly as shown and described. Some quick work and cleaned up nice and new. The battery is indeed aftermarket so 'new' is about

The gameboy game was exactly as shown and described. Some quick work and cleaned up nice and new. The battery is indeed aftermarket so 'new' is about right even if a little smaller than the original. It should hold charge for a while. This works for my needs, thanks!Read full review

Favorite childhood pokemon game

I bought this so I could put it in my transfer pak to play with pokemon stadium and I've been having a BLAST. Childhood nostalgia washes over me the moment I booted it up in pokemon tower! You have no idea how happy this game makes me :)Read full review

Vintage video games rule!

Great purchase. My grandson loves it, and with his excellent knowledge of all things tech, he says it's a wonderful game in every way. Great graphics, music, works like new.
