"Pokemon HeartGold" is a Nintendo DS game, a remake of the Game Boy era Pokemon game "Pokemon Gold." Like most DS games, "Pokemon HeartGold" can be played on a computer with the No$GBA emulator with a legal firmware file dump from your Nintendo DS. The inaccurate emulation of this game causes a particular bug in which the initial conversation with Professor Oak leads to a black screen. By tweaking some emulation options, the game will run normally.
