What happens when you combine Pokemon with a first person shooter? You get Pokemon Snap. Only, in this case your gun is replaced with a camera and you throw apples vs. grenades or other weapons. Pokemon Snap was one of the first console based Pokemon games and a spinoff that is not part of them main series which is more RPG/adventure oriented and was originally based on the Game Boy.

Pokemon Snap had a mostly positive reception by fans and critics alike but if you are looking for a more in depth game then this is not the Pokemon game for you. Pokemon Snap was released on the Wii's Virtual Console in 2007 and on the Wii-U's Virtual Console in 2016. It's a decent diversion if you are a Pokemon fan (or possibly even if you aren't) but it isn't a terribly long or involved game.

I'm curious if you remember that, back when video rentals were still a thing, that you could even take the memory card that has your saved photos from the Pokemon Snap game, and then take them to a local Blockbuster to have them printed. That was always awesome.

Love your retrogaming posts! Keep it up.

I believe there was even some sort of competition for the best photo though I don't recall the details...

The Wii Virtual Console port continued the tradition by letting you save your pictures to the SD card as JPGs, so you could post them online.

I remember when I was a child playing pokemon snap and stadium 2 the whole day. I like your retrogaming posts. Upvoted, followed and resteemed

One of my favorite childhood game ! I hope Nintendo will release new Pokemon Snap or Stadium for DS or Switch !
