I didn't have a Gameboy until I was... too late.

Are the original Pokemon games worth visiting for the first time? I know there is some nostalgic reasoning to play them, but should I try it as someone who hasn't ever played one?

Have any of you done this?

I definitely recommend playing Fire Red and/or Leaf Green for a gen 1 remake. They have a lot of QoL improvements and are essentially the same game, without all the bugs etc.

I’ll have to check which system those are on. I’m getting the vibe that Gen 1 aren’t great and to avoid them.

Gen1 is VERY dated. Fr/Lg are on gameboy advance
