Pokemon BLACK for gameboy

[CutmanMike]

Whether this is old or not, it's worth talking about. Basically a long story about a hacked Pokemon game that appeared on 4chan which is one of the spookiest VG hacks you'll ever hear about. Enough to give anyone the oogie boogies!

Is it real or not? If no, someone needs to make it ASAP.

Cool new forum

I doubt it even exists...
I've tried hacking games before and that level of detail would be unobtainable in a cartridge, especially an original Game Boy one.

Edit
I don't think I made sense.

The Game Boy cartridge couldn't hold that much, but a rom could (which is why I said unobtainable in a cartridge)

[CutmanMike]

I know what you mean. I think it gets unrealistic when you read about it showing all the pokemon and trailers you cursed. There's no way it could store all that data, along with all the other data that needs to be stored.

It's a good theory, though.

Definatly possible for a ROM.
I would totally play it if that happened.

[brotoad]

it probably is fake but even then, it's so damn creepy i want to believe it.
those ghosts have suddenly become more scary, as a kid i was terrified by them

[squidgy617]

That is really creepy. Seriously.

Yet at the same time, its one of those things I really want to believe.

But if someone made this, they were demented. Seriously.

After picking out the details, I can confirm it's false.

1. Red's sprite works on one sheet, and adding another would take the memory limit to over the size of the cartridge, proving the "old man" scenario false.

2. He said you could choose the 3 starters or Ghost, but later says Ghost cannot be ignored.

3. Changing one scenario in the overworld (changing the cut tree) without it disappearing in the normal (young) game would require two seperate overworlds, doubling the memory limit.

4. Adding ghost would remove another pokemon, even if he added one that would take the memory limit over the top, remember Pokemon was pushing the limit of the Game Boy at the time.

Cool idea, but naw.

And oh yes…this is a work of fiction.

That Towns Music Is pure Evil. Last time I listened to it I went def in my right ear.

[Nexus11]

I always found that tune to be rather annoying as a kid. Whenever I walked through I'd just mute my Game Boy until I left town.

I went completely insane last night because of this.


..Someone really should make it.

[Deviddo]

Wouldn't that be pretty difficult?  Especially a Ghost backsprite.

It's a very sad story and obviously fake :P
