Reviews 2 Go just finished up their "retro review" of the Pokemon Virtual Console re-releases. Here are their final thoughts:
"Pokemon Red, Blue, and Yellow are just as difficult and nostalgic as they were back in the 1990s. It’s a huge trip down memory lane, and for others, a way to see how the famed franchise first began. What brings the games down is the lack of a color option in Red and Blue, technical hiccups with jumping and freezing, and the trading and battling options added in being limited to local wireless and not online."
Here are our top picks for the Creepiest Pokemon, and the dark lore behind them.
We’ve seen fan remakes of Pokemon games in the past, some very well done! Today, Pokebro on Youtube posted a video where he gave himself 2 weeks to remake Pokemon Yellow in 3D. The remake features a voxel art style and borrows some mechanics from both Pokemon Scarlet and Violet and Legends Arceus.
The average cost of Game Boy games has been steadily rising for years. If you look at the overall price growth, which has doubled within the last five years, then it should be pretty clear Game Boy game prices are following the trend of increasing retro video game prices.
You would have to be crazy to keep a Pokemon game in the box after getting it as a kid, though.
I still have my Final Fantasy Adventure and Zelda: Link's Awakening, but loose. I haven't had the box in... I don't know, a couple decades?
