Editorial Reviews :
As with just about anything brandishing the Pokémon name, Pokémon Stadium is a must-have for any Pokémaniac. But this title is especially geared towards owners of Pokémon Red, Pokémon Blue, or Pokémon Yellow for the Game Boy. Using the same battle system as the Game Boy games--think highly advanced rock-paper-scissors--Pokémon Stadium allows players to enter their Pokémon in a variety of tournaments and other battle modes, all featuring vibrant 3-D graphics and animation, as well as enhanced sounds and announcer commentary. Using the included Transfer Pak, players can use their own Pokémon from Game Boy Game Paks, or they can choose from a pool of rental Pokémon.
Pokémon Stadium isn't all battles, though. The Kids Club mode features nine cutesy minigames that make for great multiplayer fun for all ages. Gallery mode lets players take snapshots of Pokémon (similar to Pokémon Snap), which can then be printed out as stickers at your local Pokémon Snap station.
While Pokémon Stadium doesn't require that you already have any Game Boy version of Pokémon, players won't be able to access two of the best features of the game without one. Pokémon Lab allows players to view, store, and better organize the data on their Game Paks, as well as trade Pokémon with another player (which requires an additional Transfer Pak, sold separately). GB Tower allows gamers to play their Game Boy Pokémon cartridge on the Nintendo 64.
Buyer Reviews :
My 8 year old says: 'My favorite part of this game is the mini-games that come with the Stadium part. I also like to take pictures of the Pokemon with the different backgrounds. It is like a Gameboy because you can battle gym leaders, as well as other Pokemon. You can choose from all the Pokemon and pick the ones you want, or you can let the computer decide. I would advise you to buy this game if you or your kids like Pokemon.'
A mom adds: My kids also have the Gameboys, and they've been so busy with the battle portion and mini-games that we haven't even had a chance to download characters from their Gameboys yet! This is probably one of their top three favorite games, although it gets a little samey at times, and the battles can be a bit drawn-out (they need to lose the narrator). All in all, worth the purchase.
