It's surprising how many people seem to have played and loved this game. There are quite a few reviews for it on the site now, and overall I'd say the impression is a positive one. I remember when the game first came out, I thought to myself that it looked quite stupid. That rash judgment seems to have caused me to miss out on an experience that I might have loved. I'm not sure that trying it out now would go well for me. It seems like the sort of game that wouldn't age well.

Yea, a lot of this game's love has to do with nostalgia. That's why people have been asking for Pokemon Snap 2 for the 3DS.

It's actually still quite fun, Jason, on its own merits. The concept was very solid and the levels are quite dynamic. The only place that it's significantly aged are the graphics, but even that's not too bad because it's a pokemon game and, well, you just don't expect that much. The music is awesome, too.

Or rather, just download it on the Wii console. Just read that, sorry!

Thanks for the advice zipp, I just figured that since the game is as old as it is, and in a series as big as Pokemon, most people knew about it. Quick edit in progress.

I don't mean to keep being critical... tell me to stop if at any time you get tired of it. I don't think you've really changed the nature of that revealing line, though, only lessened its power. I wasn't talking about necesarily taking out the steps to reveal Gyrados, just more the reveal itself. Something like... well, here, let's see...

It's OK (it's the only way I'll get better). I'll see if I can change it around a little bit more.
