Yes, I bought this game and I liked it very much. It teaches about earning money so you could buy what you need and not only what you want. It is very fun to play and in a way is educational. But it takes a lot of time, it took me about 3 weeks to finish the whole game!
Extraordinary!

Pokemon Blue is one of the best games I have ever played on Game Boy. It;s challenging, but the puzzles can be solved. Also, the Pokemon are very cute.
Just plain fun....

I got this game right after getting a game boy advanced for christmas. The game is real easy to learn and play. I can see how this game is so addictive for younger kids. The puzzles are fun, but not difficult. As an adult, it was a fun way to while away the hours. I played for 100 hours before beating it. The only problem I had with this game is that there was only one save. It made it impossible for anyone else to play the game. In fact, my 2 year old son erased my first game....
Collect them all !

This game is awesome, its got good attacks and all and it has challenges but not enough to make you wanna stomp on your GB. Its an excellent game if you like RPGs. or if you like stuff like digimon. the graphics are about pretty good for the GB original games. Buy it!

Pokemon Blue rules! The starters are Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle, the thing is that when you get to get your first Pokemon you can only choose one. Bulbasaur is a Grass Type and it looks like a fat green cat with a big mouth and a bulb on its back. Charmander is an orange and yellow lizard-like Pokemon, its a Fire Type and has a flame on the tip of its tail. Squirtle (I suggest this Pokemon to all) is the WAter end of the deal, it looks like a turquoise turtle with an orageish-brown shell. your rival will always take the Pokemon with a type-advantage to yours. When you have Poke Balls you can start catching Pokemon, you do so by battling wild Pokemon and getting them down to a sliver of red health and going into Pack and getting yuor arrow to Poke Ball and pressing the A button.
Mini-FAQ about Missingo

This game is great.Actually i'm just gonna talk about Missingo.
He is a glitch pokemon that can be quite powerful.
To be able to battle Missingo,you must first have FLY and SURF and take the pokemon that you taught those 2 with you.Go to Viridian City and talk to the man that shows you how to catch Pokemon.**Sigh**We all know how to catch a Pokemon but let him teach you anyways.When you're done talking to him,FLY to Cinnibar islands.Or you could go to a place with high level pokemon,THEN Fly to cinnibar.Go to the right side of the Gym door and use SURF.Don't be in a rush and press RIGHT.You have to swim up and down right next to the Gym so that it looks like you're swimming half on land and half on water.There should be Pokemon from the place you visited.Normally I visit the Dungeon to fight more high level pokemon.There's also L128 Cloysters.They are really powerful and they give a lot of Exp.points.If you catch one and use it in battle,it'll "gain a level" and it'll now be a L100 Cloyster.It's still quite powerful.Its attacks are Aurora Beam,Clamp,Spike Cannon,and Supersonic.(I'm not sure if the last one is correct).**Drumroll**Now the reason why you did this.When you're about to fight a Missingo,the game will save(I dont know why it does that).There's 'M'' thats a level 0 or level 80 Missingo but it just says 'M''.The most powerful Missingo is L143.It has a Sky attack and maybe 2 water gun attacks.*****BEWARE*****If you catch a Missingo the graphics for a battle will be all messed up.I attempted to catch a level 80 missingo and when I did it asked me if I wanted to give it a nickname.I said yes and named it SANTAclaus right after pressing END,it attacked my Kabutops.He still wasn't caught(or was he?).I threw another Great Ball and it said Ditto was Captured.When i looked at my pokemon,SANTAclaus was there!!!the icon for it was a human.WOW.I had no more space so it got sent to Bill's PC(Ditto).I had heard that when put in battle(Missingo)it would evolve into one of many pokemon.That's when i noticed the awful side-effects of catching a Missingo.I beat the opponent but nothing happened so Ii went to the closest PokeCenter and healed all my pokemon.Then i went to Bill's PC and put Missingo in a box,released him,logged off the PC,healed my pokemon again and saved the game.I quit then came back and the battle graphics had gone back to normal.YAY!!!Well that's about all I know about Pokemon Blue.E-mail me if you have problems or have more information please.

I LOVE this game. I bought it when I was seven and have loved it ever since. It's the original! Sure, the graphics are less than impressive (most everything is a nice shade of blue, teal or green), but for me that doesn't matter. The storyline is great and really keeps you guessing. It gets hard! I have Pokemon Silver, Crystal, Sapphire and Fire Red also, and so far Blue has been the only game in which I had real trouble beating the Elite Four, the four strongest trainers in the land that you must beat to complete the game. You also have to get through Victory Road, this huge cave, which is full of tons of trainers who are trying to beat the Elite Four, too.
You really have to work, especially to get HMs. The hardest thing for me was Rock Tunnel - it's completely black, so unless you tip your Gameboy almost upside down under a light, you have to feel your way through. The trainers and gym leaders are also pretty hard. The only downside to this game is that there's absolutely nothing to do after you finish the game except go beat the Elite Four or go capture Mewtwo, which is less than exciting.
