Not day 1 per se, but prior to Gen II. I remember my cousins having both versions and nagging the crap out of my parents for a GBC and a red version.
I also remember not understanding the poison effect when walking in the overworld. I thought my batteries were dying and I made my mom by me more AAs to try and remedy it.
I've been a fan since Gen I and have played every gen since.
In order of Generation preference: 5>3>1>2>4
Gen 6 is shaping up to take my number 1 spot however.
