## Description

Product description          Cartridge and hard plastic collector case with reprint of original case artwork - NO MANUAL - Front label is fully in tact. Game cartridge is in good condition but may show normal signs of age such as minor scratches, discoloration, or debris in creases. All games are tested before being put into our inventory.             .com          Although it's geared more for younger players, Pokémon Snap is good clean fun for Pokémon fans of any age. In this Pokémon battle-free adventure, players assist Professor Oak in completing his Pokémon Report by photographing the cute little buggers in the wild on Pokémon Island. Players take a trolley-like ride through the island's 3-D environments, filled with Pokémon that not only look just like they do in the cartoons, but also have "cries" to match. While there's a limited amount of film for each trip and no zoom lens, players enjoy great freedom of directional movement from within the vehicle, thanks to solid controls.Pokémon Snap isn't as easy as it looks, as not just any old picture will satisfy Professor Oak; submissions for his Pokémon Report are judged on size, pose, technique, and whether or not there's more than one of the same Pokémon in the picture. As progress is made, new areas open up, and players are given items to aid them in their quest. Although there are only seven areas, they need to be revisited often, as hidden and otherwise uncooperative Pokémon must be "coaxed" by using items that you previously didn't have before. Also, Pokémon will do some of the craziest things--which make for great photographs--but only under certain conditions that require much experimentation (or a strategy guide) to unearth. --Joe HonPros: Good clean fun for Pokémon fans of any age Cute Pokémon 3-D graphics and "cries" faithful to the cartoon series Print out stickers of your photos at a Pokémon Snap Sticker Station Cons: An anti-Pokémaniac's worst nightmare Contains only 63 of the 151 Pokémon Game cartridge can hold only 1 player's save data

                 Review          Having celebrated its triumphant third anniversary in Japan, one had to wonder how long the immensely popular Pokemon licensing steamroller could continue to trundle through the charts. Originally slated for the vaporous 64DD, Pokemon Snap was first met with some skepticism as a game concept, and even more after it was suddenly ported to the Nintendo 64's aging cartridge format. Put all fears aside - Pokemon Snap is a game like no other, melding originality, fun, and creativity with Nintendo's new flagship license. Pokemon Snap is by definition a weird game - you assume the role of a young adventurer trying to capture the elusive Pokemon, Mew... on film. Our friend's search lands him in Professor Oak's lab on Pokemon Island, which is virtually festering with 63 species of Pokemon. In what feels like an amalgamation of Sega's Panzer Dragoon and National Geographic, you ride "on rails" through seven bustling environments and snap pictures of the Pokemon contained within. After you return to the lab, Professor Oak rates each picture based on a number of factors: the size of the Pokemon in the picture, whether it's facing you, how well centered it is, and whether it's performing a special move. Special moves and other interesting poses will net you even more points for your picture. Snap's gameplay continually unfolds to reveal new features in traditional Nintendo style, providing a fair amount of replay for the game's seemingly limited seven courses. For example, you start out with only a camera at your disposal, but you will eventually be able to throw apples and gas-filled "Irritating balls," speed up your cart, and play a Pokeflute. Each of these items opens secrets, reveals new Pokemon and their special abilities, and helps you coax the wild beasts into ever more photogenic poses and situations, which help you continually develop your photographic scores. The best photograph of each Pokemon is saved on the cartridge for future reference. While the rating system generally works well, it is possible for the more aesthetically pleasing pictures not to get representative scores, so Nintendo threw in the photo album, which lets you store an additional 60 pictures. In a delightfully quirky little feature, avid photographers can flag four photographs that can be printed onto photo stickers at Blockbuster Video stores nationwide. As fun and quirky as it is, the game's life is rather short. You will get the first 50 or so Pokemon in only a few hours. While the remaining creatures are generally harder to capture, you can probably expect to spend a maximum of 20 hours playing Pokemon Snap before running out of things to do and maxing out your scores. In keeping with Nintendo's highest production standards, Pokemon Snap sports some of the best graphics and sound the N64 has to offer. The character models are detailed and full of personality. The environments are equally lush and detailed; they sport a level of graphic variety rarely seen in Nintendo 64 games while keeping up a healthy frame rate. The soundtrack suffers from the same lack of instrumental richness that just about all the system's games suffer from, but the melodies are appropriate and catchy. What really boosts the sound's score are recordings of all the Pokemon's cries, taken directly from the TV series. Clearly recorded and used often, they bring the Pokemon mystique to a head and complete the environments. Pokemon Snap is a refreshingly unique game on a system in dire need of the very same. Despite its ephemeral nature, Pokemon Snap is a must-buy for fans of the license and probably warrants interest from those that aren't. --Peter Bartholow --Copyright ©1999 GameSpot Inc.

    Favorite Pokemon Game
  

*by V***K on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 24, 2019*

Some may not believe me when I say that this is easily my Favorite Pokemon game ever. I'm not lying though, this is a nice relaxing game where you can take pictures of Pokemon. Yes it can get stale but to me it's a very immersive experience, it's almost like Pokemon the ride where you get to ride like it's a Pokemon safari. I just love the game for those reasons putting you in such a perspective to be able to take pictures of some of my favorite Pokemon ranging from Charizard and Pikachu to Lapras and Mew. I may not be the biggest Pokemon fan but when I need to cool down and relax, this is the game I'd play.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great all around!
  

*by M***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 24, 2020*

The cartridge was in excellent condition! No scuffs, marks, or damage to the front or back labels. Connector pins were clean. I did use the 1 Up card to give them a quick buff, but it really wasn’t necessary.The game did take a couple of re-inserts into the system to work, but it worked fine and saves game data appropriately. For a 20+ year old game, no complaints!Fun game for my young kids who are getting into Pokémon themselves now and a chance for Dad to relive it!

    Great, but short!
  

*by K***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 22, 2013*

Love Pokemon? Definitely a great purchase. I missed playing this game when I was younger and looked forward to playing it again.You take pictures of pokemon, throw apples, throw pester balls, and play a pokeflute.There aren't as many pokemon as there should be. Out of the first 150 pokemon, you can only take pictures of sixty-something pokemon. But still, it's awesome. You get laughs from the different ways you take pictures or get a pokemon's attention.All in all, I just wish the game had more to it, because I was able to finish the game in just a few hours. I love it!
