I forget if it was right after or before Dragonball Gt, but there weren't too many otehr shows on in the afternoon during the times i had to watch, so i kind of became attatched to it. So when it finally started showing in the US, of course i had to watch it, and just by coincidence, the second or third episode i saw here was the first one i'd seen in japan, which was kind of cool =) So after i started watching the show here, i picked up some pokemon toys, stuffed animals and things. I got pokemon snap after that, which is really cool. My girlfriend and i had fun playing it together =) Then i finally bought one of the pokemon games two months ago, which i still need to finish playing =) I haven't bought any of the cards, though i was given a few at E3. I still haven't really looked at them, and i'm not sure how it's played. I _probably_ won't get too involved with them, i have trouble enough finding anyone to play some Magic with =) I may get the GB version of the cards, depending on how it comes out. Once i get some money and i beat Pokemon Red (it is _so_ annoying that Pokemon _Blue_ is the one with cool fire types in it!) i'll probably get Yellow, and Gold and/or SIlver when they come out. I'll probably get Pokemon Stadium also. So pretty, much, i did it all in a screwy reverse order =) - -------------------------------------------------------------- Run to light from shadow Sun gives me no rest Promise offered in the east Broken in the west Chase the sun around the world I want to look at life -- In the available light - --Rush [ To quit the n64 mailing list, send the message "unsubscribe n64" ] [ (without the quotes) to majordomo@xmission.com ] ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 12 Nov 1999 02:02:16 -0800 (PST) From: Geoff Finger Subject: Re: [N64] The past week and a half On Thu, 11 Nov 1999, Dexter Sy wrote: > With the anti-trust suit against microsoft, lets hope someone sets in and > offers us a good alternative. linux is cool, but not enough pc manufacturers are > supporting it. The lack of an alternative is why Microsoft is in trouble in the first place.

I think the idea that violence in video games hurts kids is bull, but i do worry a little about the memes that they might contain sometimes. I find the concept that it's okay to trap sentient beings in small balls and force them to fight each otehr ala cockfights slightly disturbing. Why i don't let it bother me too much is a: as you say, it is a fantasy world, and overall, the pokemon are treated as friends and allies rather than as the salves they could be. b: i'm not sure of the exact demographics of pokemon players, but i would guess that the ones young enough to be impresionalby are also a little hazy on the level of sentience in animals. I'm not sure if they would clearly understand the difference in lelvels of sentience between a dog and pikachu, they're just going to view pokemon as glorified pets, and owning/controlign them as ownership of pets. c: and like i said, i suspect the theery behind it is battles of honor. Pokemon fight for you because you beat them in combat, or the swore fealty to you. Being sentient creatures, battles between them are generally for honor, not for death and/or mutilation. anyway, that's my overanalysis of pokemon =) > The other shows probably aren't really any worse than Pokemon, but I haven't > spent countless hours playing Monster Rancher, so Pokemon holds that special > place in my heart. Like i said in an earlier post, i just recently started playing the actual video game.

Why did that kid get sucked into the game? That's still a better plot than pokemon =) I don't think they meant this is taking place on the Earth, just another planet that also had all continents merged at one point in the past. I don't know the etymology of "pan" but pangea is probably a reasonable name for the supercontinent on any world =) As for the disk things, scientists develop the ability to genetically engineer creatures, and incode that information on data disks, yeah, that's really out of this world. Not your normal tech like being able to capture wild animals in small spheres a fraction of the size of the creatures =) It started out with the guy winning a giant competition playing the original Monster Rancher. The prize was to be shipped a prototype copy of Monster Rancher 2000x or some such, He starts playing the prototype right at the point that the girl loads a monster disk at a temple, and instead of summoning a monster, it summons him instead. Whether or not this is a game, or another planet, or an alternate reality or what, is of course unexplaied so far. - -------------------------------------------------------------- Cast in this unlikely role Ill-equiped to act With insufficient tact One must put up barriers To keep oneself intact - --Rush [ To quit the n64 mailing list, send the message "unsubscribe n64" ] [ (without the quotes) to majordomo@xmission.com ] ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 12 Nov 1999 22:04:23 EST From: TreyTable@aol.com Subject: Re: [N64] Pikachu, I choose you!!

Who cares about Ash, anyway? I'm mostly just for Pikachu.

You go back to it a year later? Well, this is how I do it, I usually don't play one game at a time, even with biggies like Zelda, Xenogears, Metal Gear Solid, or Goldeneye. I at least get a new game every two weeks, and maybe a used or bargain game or two a month, so I'm not usually only playing one game. For instance, October found me playing Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, Final Fantasy 5, Namco Museum 1, and Duke Nukem: Total Meltdown (PSX). Those were the games I purchased new that month, well, Namco Museum 1 & Duke were used. But new to me. Usually with RPGs, long ones, once I finish them I don't go back for up to six months to a year. I'm nowhere near finishing Duke, and I got rid of FF Anthology. But I did manage to finish Pro Skater with all 11 characters. But you know what? It's a great game, probably the best PSX game this year.. well, until I get RE3 ;). Regardless, about two days after I finished Pro Skater I started over again from scratch, because it's just a lot of fun. It does have a 2 player mode, which I've played quite a bit. But that's just on one front, I just recently got NFS on the Saturn and hwve been playing a bit of that and let's not forget Speed Devils on the Dreamcast. If the game is good I play it again in single player mode, IMHO multi-player is nice, but usually the real meat in in the single player experience... unless it's co-op multi player, always fun to stick it to the computer.
