I clocked maybe 40 hours on this back then, Chrono Trigger got roughly the same from me.

About Pokémon Blue Version
Pokémon Blue is the third core series Pokémon game released as a minor revision of Pokémon Red and Green, which were released earlier that year. It was thus the first solitary version in the core series of Pokémon games. Various fixes in the game include a graphics and sound upgrade, as well as the removal of several known glitches that had been found in the original pair. Outside of Japan, its graphics, game engine and script formed the basis of Pokémon Red and Blue, while the wild Pokémon and game-exclusive Pokémon lists were changed to match Red and Green.

Le rythme est lent aujourd'hui mais l'attachement reste intact.

Il mérite sa place.

Face à Final Fantasy VII il fait pâle figure niveau ambition, mais l'un a lancé un genre que l'autre a juste perfectionné.

Ce qui tient encore aujourd'hui c'est la structure : on avance par petites étapes, un gymnase après l'autre, et chaqu'un fixe un objectif clair sans jamais noyer le joueur sous des systèmes annexes. La limite c'est que hors de cette progression il n'y a presque rien, pas d'histoire à proprement parler.

J'y jouais chez mon oncle qui avait acheté la version bleue direct (il refusait la rouge pour une raison qu'il n'a jamais expliquée). Des heures entières sans s'en lasser.

La version bleue partout, marrant. Chez nous c'était pareil, jamais compris ce choix collectif.

Y lo que más recuerdo es jugarlo con mi hermano, turnándonos cada vez que el otro moría, aunque aquí no se moría exactamente, más bien se perdían los combates y tocaba curar en el centro Pokémon antes de seguir. La parte de explorar juntos fue lo mejor, aunque el ritmo ahora se siente bastante lento comparado con lo que jugamos después.

Bref, curer au centre plutôt que mourir, ça change tout niveau frustration comparé aux RPG d'après.
