I have decided to put Blue to the test and will be playing it over the next 6 months to see if and when it will fail - so far I'm 11 hours in and I've only run into 1 reoccurring issue - that is when you play on the Funny Playing Game Boy Color, it will freeze at the completion of gym leaders. It happened at Brock and I switched to my DMG to play through. Then I switched back to the FP-GBC and it froze again when I beat Misty
Hi , does it still happen when playing them on funny playing GBC after updates ? And does it happen to all of the versions ? Red , blue and yellow? I also have funny playing GBC and wanted to order them after seeing your video but now I am unsure if I should.
I used to have the authentic version of Pokemon blue as a little kid but I got it used from GameStop so it didn't come with the box and it stopped working before I could get to Misty's gym and I was sad when it stopped working. So I might get this so I can actually beat the game
Totally worth it for that reason, in my opinion. I've put over 20 hours on my copy but haven't beaten it yet... I'm playing many pokemon games at once 😅
The Woodgrain one I built myself and the black and green is the Funny Playing Game Boy Color. You can order the FPGBC on their website and pick all the colors yourself 😀 it's like $90 and comes as a built-it-yourself kit with no soldering involved
@@EmceeIV thanx for quick response I'm thinking of getting one now I have old Gameboy advance wit pokemon games but I would need to order new games wonder if they have Gameboy advance on sale there
You dont have to bend the buttom to fit it. You fold it as you did, and right before you bend it like in the vid, you insted push all sides inside. It will fit itself that way.
I'm pretty sure the boxes weren't as shiny back then. For Gold and Silver yes but gen 1 should have still used regular prints with a little matter finish. But I'd just take the box and wouldn't use a repro to actually play honestly.
Did you think that it wouldn't work? I've been buying fake gba games from Aliexpress for a while, and I have never had a problem with them. Of course they're not the same, but I want to play games in my original Game Boy Advance SP, I'm not buying them for displaying it or something haha
Yeah kinda... So far Blue glitches out and freezes after beating the first Gym while playing it on my FP-GBC *I moved the game over to my DMG and it played through the Gym leader though*
Yeah I beat Brock 3 times in a row and it froze when he gave me the badge every time... then I popped it in my DMG instead and it played right through normally. These don't like the Funny Playing Game Boy Color I guess
i’ve been wanting to get pokemon but it is just too expensive and i was looking into getting a replica but didnt know id it was a good idea, thank you!
Glad I could help! I have decided to put the Blue Version to the test and will play it for 6 months to see if it does in fact show any issues. So far I'm a few hours in on my Gameboy DMG and surprised how well it has worked
bought a fake leafgreen and heartgold off aliexpress at least until im able to afford a real copy of a pokemon game for my ds but i also heard they end up failing to work eventually but i've been playing both games and they're actually doing pretty well so far i've even gotten to the elite 4 without anything happening its actually not that bad!
This is awesome news! I'm 8.5 hours into Pokémon Blue and the only issue I've ran into so far was that my Funny Playing GBC Doesn't seem to like the fake games and glitches out. BUT I have continued my save on my DMG and so far not a single problem 🙂 next I'm going to try one of the homebrew pokemon games that they sell in physical carts. I picked up Pokémon Orange to start with
the music is wrong,it's in a higher pitch, that is not how it originally sounds lol ,there's a pkmn blue/red playlist on here and it sounds nothing like that XD

these would be good for a collector who cant afford the real deal even as a display item
That's awesome. Kinda want one wrapped in shrinkwrap like they used to be, just to set them on the shelf for display
That is a great idea...
I agree. As long as no one is getting tricked this is a fantastic product at a great price.

Please keep making videos of these repros! Please do some on physical rom hacks too!
Thanks! This is impeccable timing, as I am in the process of making a video of Pokemon Orange in physical format 😀
I'm a sucker for something like this. So much so I have a Red remake in the mail on its way 😂
Is that Gameboy a bootleg if so where did u get it I want one soooooo bad

😃😲😲 Thank you! I had no idea 😅
iirc they were wrapped with the thin plastic back in the day

I just sold my original copies of Red and Gold a few weeks ago and you are correct. Red was more matte. Gold was quite shiny like in the video.
I never got a chance to own these games. Real copies are so expensive these days
Can i get the link bro? Please
@@EmceeIV brooo thank you so much!!!!

the game might not save or be glitchy
@@EmceeIV If you make a video to update I will definitely watch it!

everything about it is so off including the chunky plastic 😆
the red also looks soo fake,the sticker gives it away lol
Yup
the music is wrong,it's in a higher pitch, that is not how it originally sounds lol ,there's a pkmn blue/red playlist on here and it sounds nothing like that XD
Honestly, I grew up playing these games on the original DMG and the music isn't noticeable to me.
it goes without saying,do not buy fake games!
Unless you know they are fake and want them* to each his/her own
