Exactly a quarter of a century has passed since Pokémon made their Japan debut with the very first Pocket Monsters in Red and Green versions, followed a few months later by the Blue one. Videogames, despite the release in the final period of the life cycle of the legendary Game Boy, had a tremendous success, so much so that the proposal for a western distribution to Nintendo of America was not long in coming. In 1998 Pokémon Red Version and Pokémon Blue Version debuted in North America, arrived only the following year in Europe with the name of Pokémon Red Version and Pokémon Blue Version.
It is the beginning of what TIME defined in 1999 a “Pokemania“, Which overwhelmed the millennial generation with the motto of”Catch them all!”And all subsequent ones with countless video games, films, toys and gadgets of all kinds. At the height of the Pokémon boom, in the wake of the success of the animated series, 2000 was marked by the arrival of Pokémon Snap, a title that has become iconic thanks to the exclusive possibility, for millions of Pokéfans around the world, to take photographs of their favorite pocket monsters. In the year of the 25th anniversary of the pocket monsters, to the delight of all nostalgics, it arrives today on the Nintendo Switch family of consoles New Pokémon Snap, an adventure inspired by the classic Nintendo 64 video game that officially kicks off the celebrations for this important birthday.
