We've had a bunch of bullshitty threads lately, so how about this?

What was your first hour of playing Pokémon like?

For me, Pokémon Red was the first GB Game I brought brand new. I played it in the back seat of my moms car while she drove around doing errands after we left the toy store.

It was the first time I became consciously aware of "new game smell".

Also, I was blown away with the sheer scope of the game and the fact that the instruction manual looked like a log book and served as a player's guide to the first badge.

When I realized I had to backtrack back to Pallet Town to deliver Oak's Parcel, I seriously felt like "oh shit, thats like a fucking hours walk away".

But It was fantastic.

How about you guys?
