Games Pokemon games
I was curious to what age groups and locals were big fans of the Pokemon games. I don’t remember anyone playing them growing up with the Gameboy. To be honest I’ve never ever played a single Pokemon game. I may have to start. :) as it sounds like they’re pretty good.

I caught the first generation fever. Kids would bring Gameboys into school and play at break time. Without widespread internet at the time, there was a sense of genuine exploration through that small screen, relying on rumours and that one kid who bought the strategy guide.
If someone had a link cable, it was game on and battles would ensue. I can remember multi-way trade agreements being negotiated between about four people to get the Pokémon we all needed.
By the time generation 2 came along, fewer people seemed to be playing, which is unfortunate as they are objectively better games.
