    I’m old enough to remember when the Game Boy was still a relatively new system. The blurry green screen scared me away, even though I understood it had many good games. The introduction of the Super Game Boy was the opportunity I had been waiting for. I still think it was one of Nintendo’s cleverest moves.

    I'm sure this has been said a million times already, but the screen wasn't THAT bad back when the system was actually new, but sadly, the original screens really didn't hold up over time well. The pocket screen seems to have held up somewhat better though, but even those aren't as clean as they originally were.

      Pokémon really thrives in the imagination, and that’s how it’s designed, imo. For kids who aren’t that experienced with games, getting lost makes the world feel vast. You don’t know just how big secrets work, so you think any secret you find might be the most important one in the game. Every Pokémon is special and potentially powerful. Your imagination fills in all the gaps of the actually small and simple game world. It’s definitely a series best started as a kid.

    In all fairness to Metroid II, a LOT of the most iconic aspects of the series debuted in that game. Shooting downward, kneeling, the Varia suit's shoulder pads, the Spider Ball, Spring ball, Spazer, Plasma beam, Samus' arm cannon opening up to denote that you're in missile mode, the Space Jump, the Metroid larval lifecycle, recharge stations and save points- all these fundamental parts of Metroid were introduced in Metroid II. Sure, it was in black and white, but you can't downplay the importance of the title.
