>>48719743>Kids would choose splatoon over games like halo.Bullshit, when I was a kid I would prefer Halo any day, but Xboxes were expensive and parents tended to avoid buying those games for kids back then (though... my parents thought it was alright to give me GTA later so I don't know about that last aspect).
The thing that sold it was the portability though. You could play it anywhere. That's what was appealing to me because I could play it in my room after bed time.
Nowadays, kids play stuff on their laptops or their phones and they have gone much further than pokemon game wise.
