The phrase references unofficial modifications of the Pokmon Gold game, often incorporating elements considered low quality, undesirable, or broken. The term “garbage” indicates a perception of poor design, glitches, or generally unpolished content. The phrase implies the acquisition of such a modified game through digital distribution, potentially from unofficial sources.
The appeal, if any, lies in the novelty of experiencing a distorted or broken version of a classic game. Historically, such modifications arose from the ROM hacking community’s experimentation with game code. While providing a unique, albeit often flawed, experience, acquiring these modifications carries risks, including exposure to malware, instability, and potential copyright infringement.
