Game Boy / Re: Pokemon Gold Pocket Monsters (ROM hack)
« on: February 01, 2025, 11:30:27 AM »Hello,Whoa! Thanks for sharing this!
I just made an account to reply to this thread. Hope this random new account necro-ing a post is ok.
I believe I own the cartridge for the gold version, and my cousin has (or had) the version for silver. They are just a bootleg translation of the original japanese version.
Just want to share how we got them in case it gives extra context and information about the roms.
We were on a sky trip in Andorra.
My father bought them on a small electronic store as a Epiphany gift (In Spain kids get presents for xmats on the .6th of january).
This was on the year 2000. I do remember that we had them Magically (by my kid's brain) before they were in stores.
They came in what looked like complete genuine nintendo boxes, complete with manual and paperwork.
The cartridge is just black plastic with a non genuine sticker, no marking and not even a security screw.
probably this one? https://www.avid.wiki/Pikachu_Inc.
It's nice to know that a cartridge version of this game does afterall exist, I have it on one of my multicarts.
It would be really itneresting to know if your sister still has the silver version, since I'm not sure that's been documented yet. Although with this much time passed since their release I feel like someone else would've eventually brought up the silver version already so it's likely an incorrect childhood memory.
