Pokemon Snap (N64)

Could this be the "definitive" Nintendo game...

Game of the Day

Name: Pokemon Snap

Released: 1999

Developer(s): HAL Laboratory and Pax Softonica

Platform: Nintendo 64

A while ago I reviewed an obscure Pokemon title that was playable on the 64 - Pokemon Stadium. This is the other obscure one but is still a joy to play. In this game you play as a photographer named Todd Snap who is sent by Professor Oak to take pictures of Pokemon on a remote island. Why is it worthy of being the definitive Nintendo game then? Mainly because of how unique the concept is, the graphics as well are pretty good and it still manages to capture the charm of the Pokemon franchise. To put it simply, it's an enjoyable experience for fans of Pokemon.
