Graphics: Graphics are good in Pokemon Snap. The pokemon look just
like they do in Stadium and it's pretty cool to see them in their environment.
The graphics are cartoony, though they have a touch of realism in them.
Sound: Sound is also pretty good. You can hear wildlife in the background,
and the pokemon make noises whenever you see them.
Gameplay: In this game you take pictures of pokemon. It's in first-person
view and you are in a car that rides on a track. When you get further into
the game you get new items to open up new paths and find new pokemon,
such as food to lure them out. There's only a few things you can get in the
game and that's too bad. Nice idea however.
Hardness factor: Most likely the easiest game for the N64. I beat it fully
(IE, took pictures of all the pokemon) in a single day, and after that the
game just gets boring. There are only a few pokemon which are even the
slightest challenging to take pictures of.
Overall: 4 out of 10. Graphics are good, sound is good, gameplay is good,
but the game is so easy it is ridiculous. There is no replay value, and you'll
wonder why you wasted money on this game. Stay clear of this game unless
you rent it or borrow it.
