I've had my pokemon red and blue since 1998 and I still think they're better than the newer ones
I bought my pokemon red and blue when I was 8 years old in 1998, and I still play them every now and again. The original pokemon red and blue games are by far my favourite ones. I love the idea when I'm playing a game that came out like 8 years ago and I know that it was once the only one of its kind that people ever knew. They were certainly very popular in back in the 90's. Yeah, the newer ones have better graphics, more pokemon, etc. but does that make them the most enjoyable? I also own pokemon yellow, green (a japanese one), gold, silver, crystal, ruby, sapphire, emerald, fire red, and leaf green, and I still think the original red and blue are, and always will be, the best. No matter how hard people try to re-make them to improve their graphics, the original version will still be better.
The original games are where the beauty of the newer ones comes from, and I think they should definitely be remembered. I've met nine-year-olds who don't know about the red and blue games, but when I let them play it for a while they were fascinated. This shows that people are easily forgetting the true, original pokemon games, which is wrong. They should always be remembered, and played. A lot more effort and new ideas went into producing pokemon red and blue, and they were extremely popular when they first came out. You can't play the newer games and not play the ones from the oldest generation! A true pokemon fan should play the oldest games in particular to see and understand how pokemon games evolved, and know about pokemon in the first generation. I highly reccomend pokemon red and blue; you can't beat the originals!

entertaining!
This game in my point of view, is better than the latest ones, Mainly because it was new and it was less tedious. The music is repetitive and annoying, but that is what the volume control's for. After you beat the elite four it gets less fun but being sort of OCD about getting every last unlockable in the game I don't really mind that much. I think anyone under 13 would like this game.

Good game! But the other ones are better
Overall, Pokemon games are great! Blue is not one to be counted out. But, I think that newer versions like Gold, Silver, Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald (All of those I have) are obviously better. They have more color, Pokemon, better graphics, and more things to do. Still, Blue (and red and yellow of course) has its own things that other versions don't have like the type of pokemon centers, the people in and pokemon used by the elite four, and more. Its also the original and its old, so soon, I bet they won't sell it any more. So all the versions are good in their own way.

One hell of a guilty pleasure!
It's true that Pokemon is pretty much a passing craze due to (for some odd reason) the invention of TOO MANY POKEMON! However, this game is amazing. The graphics, attack animations, and sounds are very simple compared to later installments of the series, but who cares? At the time, this was like nothing anyone had ever played! The music is extremely catchy, and there are so many things to collect, you'll just find yourself playing for hours. Also, you can trade Pokemon from other people since the Red and Blue versions have Pokemon exclusive to that version. Also, if you feel the need to "catch 'em all," trade starters, or evolve certain Pokemon with a trade. The bottom line: it's a great guilty pleasure and introduced what is now the most faded franchise ever!
