Pokemon turns 20 years today! Happy Pokemon Day!


The video game world celebrates today, as Pokemon - the ingenious creation of one Satoshi Tajiri and owned by The Pokemon Company, turns 20 years today - honoring a legacy that has spanned through several games where Pokemon Trainers capture different types of creatures to train and do battle against one another in a worldwide arena that holds infinite possibilities and pure combat fantasy!


Since its inception in February 27, 1996 with a game called Pocket Monsters Red and Green for the original Nintendo Game Boy, what would be known as "Pokemon" see the first game revised and ported to the US in 1998 as "Pokemon Red and Blue", before getting a rereleased enchanced version with "Pokemon Yellow". That would then start a chain reaction that saw the fanbase grow and the game evolve into a lucrative media franchise, extending itself beyond games and expanding into trading card games, toys, anime series, movies, and much much more.


The most recognizable Pokemon and ultimately the franchise's mascot would be Pikachu - the yellow tiny creature that has electric powers. The character has appeared alongside its master and trainer Ash Ketchum since the original Pokemon animated series that started in 1997. Their adventures and partnership are legendary and awe inspiring, as is that catchy intro song.

Pokemon Original Intro

With two new installments coming out later this year in Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon for the Nintendo 3DS, Pokemon's legacy is indeed intact and getting more followers and fans each day. Happy 20th Anniversary Pokemon... I Choose You!

Abobo's Big Adventure: The Ultimate Tribute to the NES!

Saw it. Played it. LOVED IT.


If you're a fan of video games and everything that dates back to the 80's and the good ol' NES (Nintendo Entertainment System, or Famicom in Japan), then you truly owe it to yourself to check out this awesome piece of video game nostalgia - Abobo's Big Adventure. As the title implies, it stars none other than that big hunk of mass and muscle from the Double Dragon games, who's out to look for his lost son that's been kidnapped by the bad guys. As you'd expect, nobody messes with Abobo, and this game is a labor of love by fans of these types of games, who have programmed it to be just more than a simple side-scrolling beat 'em up game. Expect all kinds of gameplay that any NES fan will remember, from Super Mario Bros. to Legend of Zelda to Punch Out, and see all the kinds of mischief and mayhem one big dumb lovable guy will go through to save his offspring, with every kind of popculture reference and achievement to boot! Check out the trailer to this adventure!
