>Middle school>Gen1I honestly thought that it was shitty even back then. I remember wishing for scenerios like the manga instead of the lackluster shit we got.
Even in stadium, I was wondering why nothing touched when attacking
>g/sA huge improvement, but still rather lacking in comparison to other games, I really liked the time mechanics. Didn't even waste allowance/birthday gift on stadium2
I gave up around highschool at this point
>R/S/EDuring the gap between second and third gens I played almost every standard jrpg, and a couple of ones off the beaten road. Happened upon one called "Arc the Lad Collection" it's monster battling was superior to pokemon in every way imaginable and get this it premiered in 96' when r/g came out.
I can only find small clips without one really annoying let's player

>gen4Tried it out one more time, the game itself was kinda dull and the competition had animated sprites with overworld following animations.
