  1. To take a break from Perfect Silver, I'd like to take a quick look at this Taiwanese translation hack of Pokemon Yellow. It appears to be an early version of a lesser known Chinese translation hack. I hope I can find a copy of the possibly newer version to compare this with.

    A fellow collector informed me that this translation was actually produced by Vast Fame. Now, I don't know about that personally but I do trust them as they know a lot more than me.

    On the Analogue Pocket it boots in black and white... which actually makes sense as the Japanese version of the game (which this is built on) doesn't have the same GBC enhancements the other region releases have. Thankfully I can apply a palette to it. However, if you load it in the SGB core you can fully see the rainbow-ish sparkles in the opening "credits".

  2. Did you ever believe Mew could be found under the truck in Vermilion City? Or powerful Pokémon lurking behind Bill's house in his garden?

    Back in January, Johto Times published a feature on the legacy of the PokéGods!

  3. Back in April I got my hands on a Pocket Pikachu, it's an item I always wanted to own, and I was so happy to finally own it! IT's a Japanese version, and it came with its original instructions and rope strap. I'd say the condition was very good considering its age!
