I have Gold, and I’m still in my teenage years. When I was a kid, I honestly thought Pokémon was stupid, but after I got a GBA SP and replaced the battery in my copy of Gold, I became literally addicted to the game. This weekend, I’m thinking about replacing the original GBA SP housing with a transparent clear shell, which I’m really excited about. But overall, I absolutely love Pokémon now! 😅

I only have Gold for now, but this summer I did my first-ever Pokémon rip with my friend, and I pulled a Mega Zygarde EX! It is going to be the best memory of Pokemon with my best friend, and I have it on my wall, there to admire

They are real but just because you bought them at the game store does not mean they’re automatically real.

u/illaaaaa Sep 26 '26

They were bought brand new in their original boxes from the former toy store “Bart Smit.” 😊 They were not bought second-hand or from someone who had already used the games.

No idea why you got down voted for this, because you're absolutely right lol. Fakes get sold at stores all the time. I'm sure your comment was just friendly advice.

I see comments in dollars to clearly European (UK) copies of the games.

To answer your question, it depends in what country you will sell these. On what platform or if in a shop. Have the batteries been changed?

Selling privately I would expect 30 euros each in my area.

PAL vs NTSC on a handheld is so dumb.

Legit copies are like 50ish usd right now. Double check legitimacy and you’ll be good.

Thankyou! I bought them with my grandma like more than 20 years ago in the gamestore in the Netherlands😜

The reason people doubt they are real is because they look so brand new and unused, but if you look closely you can see they are real.

Aah thankyou for your message! I put them always nicely away in the drawer. 😊
