So I found a copy of Pokemon Snap :o
 
Well. Today I went to the shops. I went to go check out a new gaming store. I looked around in it and I was shocked to find a retro isle. It had NES,SNES,Sega and N64

I found a copy of Pokémon Snap and bought it instantly. I was shocked to find a copy of Pokémon Snap in a brand new store. *I also picked up a Rumble Pak*

So I was wondering if i should know any special tips or anything about Pokémon Snap.

Throwing Pester Balls at some Pokemon make them do things. =D
I remember when I nearly finished Pokemon Snap... I needed one more Pokemon and I had no idea what it was.
Then I took some pictures of a Grimer and found a Muk, I was so happy... =D

Wow, old game. I barely remember it, but I played it to death back in the day. I remember you had to photograph some landscapes etc with hidden Pokemon shapes, like in the river level there was a mountain that looked like Dugtrio. And in the cave level there was a constellation you had to photograph to unlock something... Sorry that's not much help.
It might not be a Pokemon game as we know it, but there's a lot of fun to be had with it.

yea how you had too capture the land that looked like pokemon like mewtwo in the cave i also took a photo of gyrados and dragonite XD

Raibutai September 12th, 2008 4:20 PM

Yeah, awesome game. I remember that there were some landscapes that showed up as ? in the album. You need items to do things to those areas. That doesn't help much, does it?

Tanooki September 13th, 2008 5:31 PM

Haha, lucky. =P

I'm in the process of ordering an N64 off of Amazon. Yeah, I'm into nostalgia and the whole bit, so I'm buying one again. The first few games I planned on buying with it were Zelda: OoT and Majora's Mask, and the first and second Pokemon Stadium, but now after being reminded of it, Pokemon Snap will be on my list too.

I don't really have any tips, since I haven't played it in so long. Oh well, I'm sure I'll get used to it again. xD

Good game but.. too small, too easy..

Guillermo September 19th, 2008 6:03 PM

If you need tips look them up on Google or something, I have never played Pokemon Snap before since I never really liked the look of it. I hope you enjoy it.

I've completed pokemon snap, Small tip, some things in certain stages open doors to new places E.g throwing an apple/pester balll at the electrode near the pile of rocks in the tunnel level.

Also this gamestore sounds great! what's it called?

.:Kanto:. September 20th, 2008 3:46 AM

Tis called Gametraders, They sell: N64, NES, SNES, Dreamcast, Genesis and PS1. *Oh and not to forget the modern consoles ^^*

Barney. September 20th, 2008 4:03 AM

Cool...But look on the website its only australia not UK :(

Ah well.

Anyway how far are you into poke snap?

*EDIT*

Happy birthday ;)

OMG!!!I just remembered I still have that game!~busts open the nintendo 64~
My favorite level was the volcanic one were you can throw some apples to get all the little charmanders to come then you use the pokeflute to make them dance.
so Apples=charmanders=pokeflute=beautiful picture

I remember this game! It's old. I almost beat it, but I couldn't find a way to hatch
an egg on the second level... I think it was Zapdos... how do you do that?!?

Ain't it something to do with the Pikachus in there? I think you play the pokeflute to get them near the egg, then hit them with food or something, they'll shock the egg and it will hatch. Atleast, thats what I remember doing, but I could be wrong.

You have the wrong order. You first use food to move Pikachu near the egg. Then you use the Pokéflute to get Pikachu to use thudershock on the egg.

I just got this game on Virtual console..it rocks

IcyByte October 6th, 2008 8:21 PM

Pokemon Snap..
 
Epic win? Or Epic Failure?

Personally, I think It's a really awesome concept.. It's fun, and it's different than the other games, but the one problem with it is that it's so short.. When I got it for Christmas at like age 7, I had it beat before lunch, lol..

I think it is awesome :)

A DS or Wii version Would be cool.

.:Kanto:. October 7th, 2008 12:19 AM

I'm still waiting for a remake...It would be so great..

Bleuhorn October 7th, 2008 7:39 AM

This game was incredibly fun! I remember getting it for my 10th birthday and taking my cartridge thingy to blockbuster to print stuff. :[ I'm sad now, in some nostalgic way.

Sigh... How breath-taking it would be to see a completely new game, with new things, with a newly created male/female photographers to choose from (Created Mii optional?) it would be such a hit. The controls for the Wii would make this a really fun game, no doubt.

Ah, but I'm sure you didn't get all the pictures, and that was the main aim of the game; not just breezing through all the stages.

I love this game, and while I'd love a remake, I don't think they'd capture the smae "feel" of the odl one, it would try to be too "next-gen" and high tech.

Red1530 October 7th, 2008 8:13 AM

I think that Pokémon Snap is among the best games in the Pokémon series. It broke from the normal mold of Pokémon games and allowed you to explore your artistic side.

The only photos I still don't have are Muk and.. Muk. Lol,I think there's another one.. Not sure.

Zenoah October 7th, 2008 8:38 PM

Pesterball a grimer 3 times for it to become Muk.

I loved this game. I could remeber being up until 4am trying to get all the photos. And the stage with Mew I loved! I took pics of the constelations all the time. I loved taking pics of the landmarks as well. The Kingler rock and the Koffing volcano smoke.
Also, pestering the Charizard so it breathed fire was fun...and getting an Arcanine to pop out of the lava!
....I want this game and cosole back now....

Skaterzpenguin October 8th, 2008 3:41 AM

I bought the game with my wii points... And I beat pkmn snap in like 3-4 hours. lol the game is fun, so I say its an epic win! ^_^
