As handheld games go, I can’t think of one that has made more of an impact on gaming in general. Pokemon Red and Blue took the gaming world by storm. I don’t care if you’re 5 or 50… If someone shows you a picture of Pikachu, you know exactly who he is. I don’t believe there’s another handheld game that has punctured pop culture… Or culture in general the way that Pokemon has. Red and Blue what where it all started.
