I think these are the first Nintendo games you could call outright bad.These kinda releases could've strangled the Pokemon fad in the crib.
>>741484410Only Hey You Pikachu was bad, and mostly because it was outright defective if you played it as a non-Japanese speaker.
Zoroark
>>741484509If I had bought Pokemon Snap for $70-$80, I would cry.
>>741484410>>741484509>>741484546>>741484557>>>/vp/
>>741484557It was sold for $50.
>>741484661Hmmmm, I wonder if there are some actually good games to buy for $50 bones...
>>741484410Pokemon Stadium makes sense Pokemon bttle in 3DPokemon Snap is a neat ideaIt's Puzzle de PonHey You Pikachu... Yeah, what were they thinking?
>>741485692>Pokemon Stadium makes sense Pokemon bttle in 3DThat's not worth whatever they were asking.
>>741484410>these are the first Nintendo games you could call outright bad.I'm fairly sure Nintendo has made bad games way before those
>>741484410I loved all of these games.Also you have your own board>>>/vp/
>>741485870Name somein b4 contrarian shit like Zelda 2 and Mario 2
>>741485734you HAD to be there
>>741485734Yeah it was, you got a unique periferal that let you play Pokemon Red/Blue on your TV.For me that was worth it alone, no more fucking batteries.
>>741485902>I loved all of these games.Lobotomized in the 90s?
>>741484410If you think that Stadium was bad, you should have seen the original Japanese version
>>741485951>No genuine criticism >just vapid seethingThought so
>>741484410puzzle league was fun, fuck you
>>741484410>fun puzzle game>beloved classic among pokefans, more enemies for battling on the n64 like a post-game>looks bad>taking pics of the mons(?) dunno if this was executed well
people ate all four of those up
>>741484410are you kidding meStadium mogs modern mainline Pokemon games to this day in animation and atmosphere departments
snap was a lot of fun tho
>>741486071>taking pics of the mons(?) dunno if this was executed wellIt has a number of fans because it did the thing pretty well. You have a few ways to interact with the environment by baiting Pokemon, playing music or throwing gas balls at them which can trigger evolutions, reveal some hidden Pokemon or new paths. So there's a surprising amount to explore and you can optimise the pictures you took for better scoring.New Pokemon Snap was actually a really good sequel to the first game too. It delivered on the content and looks great.
>>741485946The issue was you either got the peripheral or the game would be unplayable.
>he doesn't know Nintendo is currently working on an AI enhanced "hey you pickachu" that uses the switch 2 cemera
Stadium 1 and 2 are fantastic couch multiplayer games. No other game has quite captured turn based vs battles the same way. Pick six rental shitmons each and there's actually a ton of variety and gimmicks you can do. My brother and I play them all the time. I was hoping Champions would be a modern version of Stadium but it was just soulless online-only comp slop.
>>741486889Go ahead and kill me, can't get much strongerFind another soldier, another soldierGo ahead and kill me, can't get much strongerFind another soldier, another soldierSTOP PLAYING SHIT GAMES
>>741487006Stop listening to shitty music and quoting it.
>>741487094hayley williams is brilliant music
>>741486324That's not true.You can beat the entire game with rentals, they let you use every single mon excluding Mew/Mewtwo iirc.I do agree it's mostly beneficial if you want the GB game, but now you don't need a gameboy to play RBY. You just need a secknd cart card for a fiver (which they cost back in the day, it's why I have 2 of each classic game lol).Point is, I still think it was a great deal when it launched, and you haven't convinced me otherwise.
>>741484410Pokemon Puzzle League has the strongest CPU opponent in the entire PdP/TA series. The pokemon wallpaper isn't my favorite, but it's a great game. Pokemon Snap is also excellent. It's a closet rail shooter.I never was into Pokemon Stadium, but you have to give it credit for having x1000 better animation than any mainline pokemon game to date.Hey You Pikachu was a tech demo equivalent to Seaman. Is the only game out of this 4 that isn't anything special besides being gimmicky
>>741487343>secknd cart cardIdk what I did here lol*Second hand cart
>>741484410these are way better than any pokemon game they've released in the last decade. like it's not even close, we're talking miles betterby comparison games this like represent a golden age of pokemon games, that's how much worse things have gotten since
>>741484509is that why it never fucking worked? that makes a lot of sense, i thought the microphone attachment was just broken because i had rented the game. also, in what fucking world were pokemon snap and stadium bad?
>>741484410All of these games were popular and well received except for Hey you Pikachu. I can tell you're some faggot retard 18 year old watching other teens making YouTube essays about shit they have no clue about.
>>741487591>Saying this unironically when you could've been playing actual good games instead
>>741487664Thanks for confirming that you're retarded
>>741487664>Consolewarring>30+ years laterUnc...
>>741488182*draws a walther PPK*call me unc again faggot!!!!!!!
>>741484410Stadium and Snap were both very popular, Hey You Pikachu was a silly little gimmick that predated Seaman by a year, and Puzzle League is a basic puzzle game franchise rebrand as has always been popular to do. You could have picked much better examples than those
>>741484410Easy money. Stadium is actually good though, so I'm not sure why it's there
>>741489343>he hates Tetris attack
>>741487664That's a very different game, what the hell are you talking about?
>>741489673All four games in OP are also all different (and bad)
>>741487664>>741489721>posts intentionally drawn out and boring games that were that way so you'd have to rent them multiple times to beat themgood one, anon.
>>741484410Stadium and snap are very good. Hey you Pikachu is one of the worst games of all time. Puzzle league is just a puzzle game so love it or hate it
>>741484410>Pokemon StadiumThe game itself was bad, but it sold the dream of plugging your various hardware devices together to make your creatures COME TO LIFE IN 3D.This shit felt like YuGiOh when the monsters came alive via hologram technology.
>>741484410idk, i liked it as a kid, mostly the playing mini games with friends parti also used it to play my gb pokemon games on the tv which was way better
>>741489721i forgot ff7 had a pvp mode and a 4 player party modewait it didn't and stadium unironically has better real time graphics and animations still apples and oranges
>Stadium>Snap>badwhen I was a kid, I bought these games just so I could see the Pokemon in 3D for the first time
WHY
puzzle league was a cheap cash-grab but panel de pon is generally good so whateversnap is kinostadium let you battle in 3D which was enough of a gimmick on its own that they were still making games like it into the Wii erahey you pikachu was trash, yeahpokemon's spinoff games have always been better than mainline, even from the earliest days with stuff like snap, pinball or the TCG games on GBC
Real question: is Snap really different from Star Fox? They are basically the same genre.
>>741491389>Pikachu's foot is the reset buttonnice
>>741484410kill yourself
>>741491658they aren't even remotely similar outside of both games being rail shooters, and really that barely even applies to starfox depending on the game
>>741484410The only one of these I played back in the day was Stadium but my wife had both Snap and Puzzle League and has replayed both pretty extensively on the switch. I think that was largely the point of these games, Nintendo realized that the not only had an unprecedented phenomenon on their hands with this franchise but one that appealed to girls as much as boys.
>>741484597Those are games anon
>>741485915>Zelda 2 and Mario 2Those are bad games anon
>>741484410I thought Pokemon snap was a system selling blockbuster
>>741484557It unironically has more content than Star Fox 64
>>741492678this entire thread reeks of some lil zoomzoom that sees all the people shitting on modern pokemon (rightfully so mind you) and thinks they can pull a "sonic was never good" on the era that created the largest marketing franchise in the entire goddamn world
>>741491514Spinoff games only became better than mainline in gen 8, muh spinoffs being better than mainline was always a contrarian take until then.
>>741484410This was back in the day when the pokemon brand was so strong that you could slap the brand name on literally anything and it would sell, even blatant nonsensical cash-grabs like theseNowadays the brand is arguably stronger than ever, to the point where you could sell a nonfunctional and blatantly inferior game, but since it has the brand it still breaks records>>741492916This “era” was trying to cash in on it in a lazy fashion, these were the duds>>741492962Let’s be real, half the reason we didn’t get much spinoffs in the switch era compared to the previous era’s is cause GF didn’t want to be outshined since they were better. People can’t say the spinoffs are better if they barley even exist
>>741493072Even so Pokken and New Snap mog every other Pokemon game on the switch except for PLA
>>741484557You might be too young to remember this, but games like stadium and snap were usually rentals. You could also put the cart in these stations at blockbuster and have them print your photos, which was cool.
>>741484410>>741484557>Rented them>They were funNothing perosnell
>>741487507Hey You Pikachu assumes you have a 4-year-old voice with either a Japanese or American accent depending on the version. They never released it in Europe because there were way too many accents to consider.
>>741492589Only Mario 2 (and even then, debatable).Zelda 2 is genuinely good
>>741495106>Only Mario 2 (and even then, debatable).nah it's not debatable, Mario 2 is trash. I don't care if that was the style at the time for sequels, they clearly knew it was shit back then too or else they wouldn't have done the whole doki doki panic thing.
>>7414844103 of those are perfectly fine
>>741486324The game got bundled with the transfer pack you retard
>>741484410I was a kid during Pokemania and I loved all these besides Hey You Pikachu because I never played it
>>741484410I don't think you appreciate what a monolith pokemon was at the time.
Damn look like stadium round-2 filtered a bunch of zoomies
>>741495810More like Round 1 Elite Four. You'd be surprised how many people don't know there's even a Round 2 in Pokemon Stadium.
>>741492532And?
Stadium animations gave pokemon so much soul and personalities its not even funny it mogs modern pokeslop games.Of course OP probably suck some sloptube dick for opinions
>>741484410Pokemon stadium and Snap were fine though.
>>741484557at least back then you could print your pictures at certain kiosks, which made it cooler
>>741495461Tbf i meant the doki clone, not lost levels
>>741496025kek that would be hilarious
Talking about great games I just beat stadium round-2 some days ago
>>741484410These kind of games were the ones you rented from blockbuster but never bought yourself. and they were good, except hey you pikachu that shit was broken.
>>741484410Graphics were a bigger draw back then especially as console 3d was still newish, considering all the mainline games were on the Gameboy.Pokémon stadium was the only way to see Pokémon battles the way you imagined they should look
These came out during Pokemania (1999-2001). Anything that had Pokemons on it would sell during that time. Some products felt rushed because they knew the hype would eventually go away.
>>741484410Stadium was balls to the wall hard. I never managed to beat those fucking tournaments. But it was fun in mp when everyone could import their own real team.
>>741484509The microphone is absolute cheap shite for the timeReplace it and the game suddenly works
>>741491801Pikachu's body is a massive tumor.
>>741496457None of these felt rushed.
Planning to play Stadium in a few weeks, what am I in for?Any tips?Pic unrelated
>>741496524>Any tipsDon't ask for tips, you'll spoil shit for yourself.Why are zoomers so afraid of trying games blind?
>>741496524What scenario has you planning to play stadium weeks from now?
>>741496482You just had to play broken with broken, paralize and confuse everything you can, get lucky crits and probably know how to give experience stats to your pokemon. I didn't fully understood that back then but grinding the elite four and depositing your pokemon on the pc made their stats grow even at level 100. Dodrio tower made this so easy
>>741484557xbox gamepass used to a building
Pokemon Snap should have had a sequel RIGHT after the first game, why they took so long to do a second game is beyond me, it was the perfect way to showcase Pokemon in their natural environment and they got it right out the gate.
>>741496524Use a game boy game Learn what experience stats arePlay at 4x+ speed if you must to train easierXploit missingno in red blue to get infinite HP Up, protein, iron, carbos and calciums, these shits are expensive and of course TMs
>>741496910>Going to the local pizza place and getting two extra large pizzas>walk into Blockbuster and rent a movie, game and get candies at the cash register>Have the whole weekend to yourself>and it will never happen again
>stadium gets on the switch>Colloseum continues to be neglectedWhy
>>741485915Urban Champion
>>741497206I'm mad they fucked up these releases, they should have made the NSO controller at least compatible with the transfer pack but they pussied out, same with xd lack of support when a usb-gcn controller port exist and you could have connected your original gba games.Hell even the digital FRLG releases aren't compatible with it.
>>741486324Ok, and pokemon was unplayable without a Gameboy. What's your fucking point?
>>741496524What platform?
>>741484509Worked on my machine
>>741487230wrong.
>>741484410Stadium 1 and 2 with the transfer pak are excellent games, they're like 3D battle frontiers for the GB Pokemon games with some extras like minigames, GB Tower to play on the big screen (with Doduo/Dodrio Tower for 2x/3x speed) and special Pokemon to transfer to the mainline games as rewards.
>>741497206XD is on Switch, give it some time.
>>741484410Slander, Snap and Stadium are great games. Hey You Pikachu can suck my ass thoughbeit.
>>741484410I never played Hey You, Pikachu so no comment, but the other three games are all good. So is Pokemon Stadium 2. They really added fuel to the Pokemania experience.
>>741484410I was a huge pokemon fag from from late 98 to 2000 had the following gamesRedYellowPinballTCG gameboySnapStadiumCrystal "last pokemon gane I bought"Stadium 2Was really into the anime but quit watching around the time the 2nd movie came out quit collecting the cards by the time gen 2 came out. DBZ pretty much replaced pokemon starting in 2000 to early 2003 then I was done with anime.
>>741484410Pokemon Snap is one of my favorite N64 games and I replay it all the time. It’s a family friendly on-rails shooter.
Hey You Pikachu, maybe. How are the others remotely bad?Puzzle League is just Panel De Pon.Stadium was an excuse to see your Pokemon battle in 3D, and it had mini games.
>>741484410>>741484557pokemon snap is one of the best pokemon games ever made go fuck yourselfstadium was alright too
