how humbling
pokemon red/blue, now *that* was a good video game
oh, irl pokedex
I had the red
brother had the blue
was a good time
haha that's perfect
Pokemon Gold is best pokemon
gets the brothers to play together
also Tech Decks, whomst remember
Yeah, nothing makes brother's enemies like link cable battles..
@missliterallywho my little brother was literally obsessed with those
Tech deck reporting in
Digimon was better... 😒 <:avtism:359037377919844352>
man the 90s were the best decade
Digimon? oof...
The only time I've ever been to Ikea @DairyMaxx and I rolled our tech decks over all the furniture
That's the time everything went to capture-things and battle them
Japan was going through an economic crisis and wanted to create things that gave people a warm feeling of companionship.
really..?
Hence tomogatchi, pokemon, robotic dogs.
Yes.
The Japanese did 9/11
wow..
@Logan 9/11 *did* bring the US together...
It also brought the US and the middle east together
Digimon started out as Tomagachi that linked up for fighting. It was developed independently of Pokemon game boy games. And of course they both got shows.
I will say pokemon is the better game but digimon had the better show
@ThisIsChris pokemon sales went *up* after 9/11.
Iyashi (癒し) is a Japanese word that means to heal, focusing on the whole person.
That's what they were trying to cultivate during the economic crisis in the 90s.
I was done with pokemon long before 911
@Selma were the first harvest moon games as a result of that?
Maybe. That's actually a very good question, Wood Ape.
that age of trying to 'grow up'
DBZ got lame too
Harvest moon is pretty rad.
I played the gamecube one endlessly; cried when my goat died.
that far game?
