Brand: Nintendo EAN: 0045496730895 Edition: Yellow ESRB Age Rating: Rating Pending Label: SPIG Manufacturer: SPIG Platform: Game Boy Publisher: SPIG Studio: SPIG Editorial Review: Editorial Review: While it's basically the same game as the previously released Pokémon Red and Pokémon Blue, Pokémon Yellow: Special Pikachu Edition features enhancements that make it the best version yet. In all three versions, the player is on a quest to become the World's Greatest Pokémon Trainer, with exploration and Pokémon battles (think advanced paper-scissors-rock) factoring heavily into the gameplay. While the game world is the same in all three versions, the Pokémon you encounter vary from version to version; the underlying goal of collecting all 151 Pokémon can only be met by trading Pokémon via Link Cable with another player with a different Pokémon version. (Players can also battle against one another using the Link Cable setup.) Pokémon Yellow follows the TV cartoon series more closely than the other versions. Your first Pokémon in Yellow is Pikachu, and he travels alongside you as opposed to inside a Pokéball (like most Pokémon). Pikachu's mood can be displayed virtual pet style: keeping him happy is important, as his mood affects certain events in the game. In addition to the inclusion of other TV show elements like Team Rocket, new battle modes between players are available as well as a secret game called Pikachu's Beach. If you haven't played any of the Pokémon games before, Pokémon Yellow is the best place to start. But while Pokémaniacs will go gaga over Yellow's new features, less enthusiastic veterans of Red and Blue may not find the extras to be quite so special. --Joe Hon Pros:

 Rating:  - Pokemon Yellow Version -GBGood game I thought some of the graphic's were a little tacky for my taste although the funny part is they say this game is for the original Game Boy but when you play the game the background like houses and the ocean and people the graphics really suck major but when you get into a pokemon battle with another trainer and you see both pokemon their both in crystal clear color which is really weird because this game is suppose to be for the GB not GBC so go figure I just thought that was pretty interesting ... Read More Rating: - A good continuation of this never ending series.This game is essentially pokemon red or blue with the graphics updated a little. So I won't bore you with talking about the core game play. However, I will talk to you about what makes this game different than red or blue, therefore allowing it to receive high marks. This version makes the game a lot more like the show. Your starting pokemon is pikachu, but this time he/she follows you around on foot instead of in a pokeball. You can see it on screen following your every move. They also incorporated new features ...

The controls and goal are the same as in Red and Blue with a few new features such as Pikachu following you and being able to check its mood and the introduction of Team Rocket's Jesse and James. Rating: - it is fine I have this game it's fine but really hard i am a pokemon fan and it is fine but really unique and different and it is really hard i have to say i have not beat it in 3 YEARS but i guess i am a bad video game player.O MAN. Rating: - Watching Pikachu following you throughout is priceless in itself. 4.1 stars.The graphics are piss-poor but the game play and music rarely get better. Bulbasaur is better than any other starter ever and always will be. Charmander was cute but not as cool. And Squirtle as adorable as he was was way too slow. The madness never stopped in my house once me and my bro (22 and 16 now) got these into our grubby paws. We did next to no trading, but tons of gaming. 33 Pokemon that are in this title are: Bulbasaur, Meowth, Persian, Starmie, Dragonair, ... Read More |
