When I first saw a commercial for this game I thought that the Pokemon Effect would happen in our country too. I thought at first this game was too kiddish for me to even deal with because of the fact that they have cute little animals that repeat their name. I was wrong. When I put the game into my Super Gameboy Cart I noticed that they made espically design colors for different parts of the game unlike before. In less than 2 hours, I was hooked trying to get better Pokemon. This game is as addictive as Zelda and Dragon Warrior put together. The game is a Dragon Warrior like interface except for the fight scenes. I thought that the game was easy to learn and very addictive. When people at school saw me playing this game I was challenge by a few to a cable like game. This game has gotten more than me. The only problem about this game is the fact that you can only hold 6 pokeballs at a time and that bothers me. A person could have more and the explanation for this whole thing was pretty crappy. Overall, it's really fun and challenging. |

Pokemania is sweeping the nation! This game is more
than a fad, it's a phenominon. Millions of people across the world are
trying their best to become the world's greatest Pokemon Master. The point
of the game is to catch as many of the pokemon as you can (hence the phrase:
Gotta catch 'em all) and train them into the highest levels of battle skill.
Once you beat the game there is still the monumentous task of collecting
all of the 150 species of pokemon. Which isn't such an easy task seeing
as how you have to link up with another gameboy and trade to "catch them
all". I feel that this game is a very enjoyable experience. There's nothing
like seeing the first pokemon you ever had beat the game for you after
countless hours of perfecting it's attacks and learning how it functioned
in battle. I own both versions of the game to maximize my efforts to collect
all the species. I own one of the first version of the game boy to come
out and this makes it difficult to trade with others (because most people
now own a pocket or color GB and are incompatable with mine so make sure
you have the right model so you can trade with your friends). I should
also mention the Pokemon TCG is also extremely popular. It's sold out across
the country and suppliers are getting bombarded with requests for the game.
Observing the laws of supply and demand, the price of the game is being
jacked up to take advantage of the craze. Nintendo plans on releaseing
Pokemon Snap (the goal is to take the best
pictures of pokemon that you can and build a portfollio of your work) in the summer. They also hope to release Pokemon Stadium (A 3-D battle ground for your pokemon that can be downloaded from your GB game by placing it in a special adaptor and then inserting it into the 64 controller) this fall. You will also be able to play your GB game on the 64 system in the same way as the Super Game Boy works for the Super Nintendo. The game will maintain it's GB graphics when you do this. Rating: 5 (The game lacks stategy but that isn't really the goal of the game) P.S. If any of you would like tips on how to procede in the game, mail me at thesolarguardian@yahoo.com |

When I first saw a preview of Pokémon in a July 1997 issue of Nintendo Power, I was dying to play. Finally a year later it was released in America. It was worth the wait. The graphics are great, the sound and tunes are very nice, and the game design is incredible . They certainly think so in Japan, where Pokémon has sold around 10 million copies. The only competition Pokémon has for the best Gameboy game is Zelda: Links Awakening/DX. Everybody I've talked to has this game. If you have a Gameboy, you should already have it. No RPG has gotten this much attention since Final Fantasy 7. If this game doesn't get a perfect score, I can't think of any Gameboy game that would. |
