Why you don't have more views?! You have a really good content. Anyway, thanks for the video. I really love anything about the leaks of pokemon space world 97 and pre gold and silver era.

Going to be playing the Reforged version soon. I'm glad I found this video!

*FINALLY!* I've been expecting this! Thank you bro! 😁

Always glad when you upload!

I like to think of these two rom hacks as a "progression", as if GameFreak actually made 'em. The actual Spaceworld 1997 Demo being "Stage 1". The early prototype beta. Finished just enough to be a playable teaser demo, but still highly unfinished and working off the Gen 1 engine. Super Gold 1997 being "Stage 2". GameFreak continued working off of the early teaser beta. Still clearly unfinished and still based on Gen 1, but now it's fully navigatable, and all the gyms and League work, along with NPCs and things working as intended. And Reforged being "Stage 3". The final stage that got released, where they finally turned Stage 2 into a full GBC game with updated graphics and updating the map here and there to look more interesting and 'finished'. Polishing up the sprites and tileset, polishing up the story and events, and making everything just more complete and ready for a retail release. Obviously the hacks aren't official, but I like thinking of 'em that way, in stages. Helps make them make sense if I add some sort of timeline to it. I'm kinda torn on which one I actually want to play and finish. Like, the idea of playing Super Gold, a version that resembles the demo a lot more, is interesting to me. But, Reforged is the version that WOULD have been had they actually finished the original version of the game instead of scrapping it and starting over. I can't make up my mind. Do I want a Gen 1-looking Demo-update, to get that original Demo feel? Or do I want a more complete and polished looking game that carries over a lot from the Demo, but updates it?

Thanks, that comment helped me a lot deciding in which order I want to play Super and Reforged. According to this video, they differ enough to be worth being played both individually rather than "just one of the two" but I couldn't decide for an order. Now I'd say: First "Super Gold", then "Gold Reforged" (according to your Stages 2 and 3). :)

I’ve just now stumbled on this, and I gotta play it lol. I’ve always been a fan of Silver (the rival character) and seeing his personality so different here and him seeming to play a larger part in the story is really intriguing 😅 plus the little panda Pokémon is just adorable, and this version of Falkner is so cool. Beta Kanto region is just hilarious with how messy it is

Ignore me just commenting for the mighty algorithm

I really appreciate this video. I played the supergold but I didn't know what reforged was.

funnily enough i played the original Super Gold 97 and then learned about the Reforged versions as i was beating the elite 4.

I respect the lack of criticism when comparing the 2, i didnt see it prior but they do serve those 2 purposes. Unfortunately i also dont want cactus in my eyes so i will try reforged out of the 2 lol

This is incredible, wow, this isn't even considered a fan made rom, those were real Pokémon and a real region! Incredible. I was planning on playing Pokémon crystal since I never played it, but this has gone up the list and took the first spot!

Is there a save editor for this rom hack?

Dang I've completely missed these. Excited to try them out. Found the 5.0 IPS patches but for the life of me can't figure out what game is supposed to be patched. Tried gold, silver, crystal. I feel like I'm overlooking somewhere on the forums where I'm sure it says what the base is. You mentioned gold 97 as the base to reforged, but I can't even find a ROM or IPS for that aside from the updated super gold 97. Any chance you know where I could look for the base to patch? Ty so much for your content man.

You need Gold Version for Super Gold 97, and Crystal Version for Reforged. If you need the ROM files, search for "Roms Megathread" on Google and explore the first result, it's a massive repository of ROM files for various old systems.

Super Gold 97 runs on Gold Version instead of Crystal so the save files aren't compatible. The old Gold 97 saves might be compatible with Reforged since both run on Crystal Version, but you're probably better off starting a new save file.

First you need the ROM files for Pokemon Gold Version and Crystal Version. I can't tell you where to get those but it shouldn't be too hard to find on Google. Next you need the patch files , which come in IPS format. See the video's description for links. To patch them, I recommend LunarIPS. You can find it here: fusoya.eludevisibility.org/lips/ Extract LunarIPS somewhere, run it and click Apply IPS Patch. It will open a window where you first need to select the IPS file to use. Once you've done that, you need to select the ROM file to patch. For Super Gold 97, you need to select your Gold Version ROM. For GS97 Reforged, you need to select the Crystal Version ROM. Once finished, the program should give you a message saying the patching is complete. To play them, you need a GBC emulator such as Gambatte. sourceforge.net/projects/gambatte/files/gambatte/

If that's how it came off, I'm sorry. That wasn't my intention. I quite like the spritework in Reforged, and it does a great job at matching the style used in Generation 2. My "criticism" isn't about the quality of the spritework, but rather the overall style not being as unique (err, exotic might be a better term?) in my opinion.

@MerryBytes

2 жыл бұрын

Yes you can, all Pokémon that had evolutions are present in both Super Gold 97 and Reforged. However, some Pokémon do have differences in how they evolve between the two ROM hacks. In Super Gold 97, Ditto evolves by using an item called Covenant Orb, while in Reforged you can simply use a Metal Coat on it. On both, Farfetch'd evolves by simply leveling up, but in Super Gold 97 it happens at level 25, while in Reforged it happens at level 33. You can check this information on the evos_attacks.asm file on the Github repositories: github.com/lvl-3-g/Gold97SGB/blob/master/data/pokemon/evos_attacks.asm github.com/SoupPotato/gold97/blob/master/data/pokemon/evos_attacks.asm
