/vr/ - Retro Games

1998-2000 Pokemania will never be repeated again. Pokemon swept the nation. Every schoolyard had its own Pokemon culture, hierarchy, interactions, urban legends, and so on. There were enough Pokemon to make it fresh every time but not so much that it became convoluted or impossible to master. You had the trading cards, the figures, the BIG FUCKING DEAL movie, all the other merchandise. When Pokemon Stadium came out I was so hyped to see my Pokemon in 3D I played until I threw out my neck.

I am so glad to have lived through this period at the prime age.
