Hey,
I remember first playign Pokemon in late '98. I remember a commercial where there was this vacuum that sucked these monsters, they called them pocket monsters. I didn't understand the commercial, but there was a show. The show was okay, though I wasn't really hooked on it.
Then my friend and I talked, he said pokemon owned so much, that I should get the blue version, since he had the red version. I didn't have a game boy at the time(this point in time for me was when I wasn't really into video games, I would just watch TV, go outside, and excersise). So i got a game boy color, and pokemon blue, and when I was thoroughly playing it, I WAS HOOKED!!!
This game is almost as strategic as chess! People battle it out with their pokemon, their raised to the highest levels, some people would make ####ie decisions in using your starting pokemon(charizard for example) for an ultimate team(which is REALLY bad).
Anyways, when people now see pokemon, they see a game that's dead, the hype being over. Also, when they see/hear pokemon, they think of Pikachu, since that's the first sense that kicks into them. Pikachu = kiddy. Pokemon wouldn't be kiddy, but it was the companies that milked Pokemon, and Pikachu for children that made it kiddy. If there was no children pokemon products that consecutively got milked, pokemon would be as good, hell, even better than final fantasy.
Read my quote again, Pokemon is NOT kiddy, it was the companies that made it kiddy.
How the game goes? It's VERY deep. There's the quest to beat the game which doesn't take long, to catch all pokemon which takes a good while, and to have the strongest well built team in the world. People that are casual gamers would go for the 1st one, people that really like the game would go for the 2nd, and people who like competition would go for the 3rd(I am described as the 3rd).
Before you vote, read what I just said, Pokemon is MUCH deeper than a yellow rodent, you have to play the game before you judge it, and I believe most of you didn't. And even if you did, your peers probably kept critisizing pokemon, such idiocy, for a game they never played. It's like someone critisizing Zelda, Final Fantasy, or even Mario.
And by the way, the site I will be making would make you WANT to get pokemon, infact, I have connections with Nintendo(though small), and if my site goes great, I could hold national, and very soon, world tournaments for as much as one million dollars.

as you can see, he is not talking about pokemon cards and he is defenantly is not talking about the show.
HE IS TALKING ABOUT THE GAME!!!!!!
Yes i agree with alot of you tho, The show and cards are just plain stupid. The show is practacly the same thing over and over, the cards are a waste of good money. What tarkan said about the companies making it fruity is true. If they really wanted to they would make it for older ages like teens, but think of it this way...............
Who plays the most video games? Children do
Who Watches more cartoons? Children do
Who Buys stupid cards? Children do
So now you know why they target the younger youth, because they can make more money off of them that the older crowd. If they made it for older ages they would lose interest very quickly since they are so close to there adult hood and will pretty soon have to act mature. So they target youth because they have more of there childhood in them and will get hooked for much longer. Making the companies happy and making more and more products for them to eat up.
I can say that "XMvsSF is gay, that $hit is for little kids. its just a waste of time, only little stupid kids play that game" and most of you wont even agree with me.
Why? because you guys know that its not just for kids. People of all ages play this game but people are going to hate because there going to hate. Ignorance drives that hate.
Here is my opinion: Well, i think the line of pokemon games has so much potential if people just gave it a chance. I hardly play any video games, but Pokemon Red is one of the few ive got hoooked on.
Like tarkan said, its like chess. If you know how to play the game then you will really get a hang of it. People would just consintrate on getting your pokemon's level as high as they could and get the strongest moves as they can, but its not even like that. Even a weak pokemon can defet even the most strongest of monsters if you know how to use him.
Having a game like this can actually strike something bigger like online play. people around the world can have there little mosters and battle eachother like a huge tournament. I really dont know about the other game because the only game i was hooked one was Pokemon Red and Blue. The game has so much dept to it, you really do have to be good at it to beat your fellow friends.
