About Pokémon Gold Version

Pokémon Gold, along with Pokémon Silver, are the sequels to Pokémon Red and Blue. They offer 100 new Pokémon to capture and train, 8 more Gyms to take on and a new Pokémon League challenge. Featuring an expanded post-game, Pokémon Gold and Silver additionally offer extra content from the previous entries in the series.

The community says

Comparing this to Chrono Trigger feels unfair, they're not even trying to do the same thing, but Gold still holds up remarkably well for what it is.

Fair point on the win rate, though I wonder if that's more about who shows up to vote than the game itself?
QuestDragon93

71% win rate speaks for itself honestly.

Yo también pensaba que el ratio hablaba solo, lo tuve varias semanas seguidas en pausa y siempre volvía por las noches sin falta.

89e alors que SoulSilver fait clairement mieux ce que ce jeu propose déjà, ça interroge.
