Why not pick blue! What makes red rarer? A lot of people like charizard. Pesonally I prefer squirtle, even over blastoise. But also people just prefer red.
I saw a CNN article about expensive NES and ATARI games. Some of them cost 10,000 dollars, I kid you not, so that's no surprise to me.
PS I currently think Charizard is cooler than Blastoise, only because I have a shiny BellyZard XD
I think it deserves it that (kind)of game made a lot of kids happy and like said before Collectors item and stuuf.
And yeah Charizard is much more cooler than Blastoise(Hopw WPM doesnt see this)
There are more copies of Blue out there because, as I said, Charizard is on the cover of Red. Charizard is way more popular than Blastoise, so it stands to reason that Red would be harder to find than Blue.
