    I dipped into that fad, then gave them all to my little brother and sister. They about died I think they were so excited. Theyre so stupid. Pokemon become unpopular so they came out with some yugio thing and now theyre all into that. I think the people of pokemon came out with it too.

    Same here, some people go crazy for it. There werre some anime shows on hbo before. This lady would grind on her motorcycle and well.. yeah it went on.. was pretty funny... Too bad pokemon isnt like that.. Although in japan it might be? I know alot of their tv is all nude.

    When Pokemon very first came out i thought it would be a cool anime game (yeah, I like anime). I was already a gamer so I bought a bunch of Pokemon. Then a few months after it was released all of these screaming little kids started showing up at my gaming store with their parents in tow. Swamped the tournemnets with their complete lack of strategy. Abd then it started getting national attention. So I cashed out my entire collection at my gaming store for a few boxes of a better game. I had almost a complete set of first edition foils including 2 first edition foil Charizards. They went up to over $100 a piece. I still kick myself for that.


    Yeah, I was/am a geek.
