Pokemon snap

Now before I continue do you own an Nintendo 64? if not get one off Ebay. moving on pokemon snap is an old pokemon rail shooter for the N64. Of course it's not a rail shooter in the sense that you blow pokemon apart with assault rifles while constantly moving down a linear path(as awesome as that would be.) No pokemon snap is a game in which you take pictures of various pokemon(80 to be exact) in their natural enviroment. Now I know that sounds boring, but you can also have some fun with the pokemon. You are given many different devices such as flutes, apples, and gas balls. You can use all of these to make the pokemon evolve or perform tricks or stunts. Examples of this would be hitting a charmelion into a pit of lava transforming it into a charzard or using apples to lure a pikachu onto a surfboard. These are not only fun and interesting to watch, but are necessary to get higher scores on the pictures you take. The story is professor Oak has recruited you to study the pokemon on a remote island. Your studies will take you through seven different courses each with different pokemon. Now I know it still sounds boring, but it's really a game you have to play to understand why it's so great, and you could probally buy pokemon snap and an N64 at a flea market for under 50 dollars so I say you get it.
