Found this channel with the harry potter games which I played from the beginning and was nice to see them get some love, and now I'm loving getting breakdowns of old games and how games technology has evolved over time by looking at a particular series and how it's evolved over time. I didn't even play some of these as they were before my time like gen 1 Pokémon, I joined in at Diamond and pearl. Suggestion for you, look into the old Disney games, toy story 2 was one of my all time favorites, there was 102 Dalmatians. Would be slightly different to your normal format but still great. Given how much I'm enjoying this, I think I can find £1 to give each month to your Patreon.

I was born in 93, so I was at the perfect age for Pokemon when it came out, and I have so much nostalgia for Gen 1. Me and my friends playing all of the games, watching Pokemon on TV, collecting the cards, arguing over Pikablue rumors all day, etc. There was so much Pokemon content back then probably because the series was so popular, but also very likely because, as you said, we just wanted so much more than what the Gameboy could give us. I still play the new Pokemon games, but I rarely finish them. To me, nothing will ever compare to the first two generations and how my friends and I felt experiencing them.

Of course, after Beyblade, the Star Wars prequels, Harry Potter, and even Shrek, we can't very well get off the 90s baby turn-of-the-millennium nostalgia train without covering Pokémon, can we? :P Absolutely seconding the feeling of RBY being a comfy experience even if they're objectively very janky. My big sister and I had GBCs and so did our friends, so we had plenty of fun trading and battling, but somehow we missed out on the N64 titles. We moved house when I was eight, and even by 2001 Pokémon was just such a unifying force on the playground that it made settling into a new, scary school very easy - ban or no ban. Of course, I've got similar feelings and memories surrounding Gen II and III, so if you decide to cover those I'll watch with great interest. (Especially because not enough people talk about Colosseum and XD.)

When it comes to mainline entries, I didn't play gen 1 until the early 2010s or late 2000s. I had found a copy of Blue at a flea market for dirt cheap only to find out when I got home the reason it was so cheap was cause the internal battery died. I didn't know how to replace it and neither did my parents, so I'd just see how far I could get before I'd have to turn the system off. So I didn't experience all of Kanto until the Let's Go games released. I did have Stadium and Hey You Pikachu as a kid. I couldn't play Hey You Pikachu much cause I didn't have the mic (probably another used game thing), but Stadium was my jam as a small child. Although I did spend a lot of time wishing I had gotten Stadium 2 as that was the gen I started with.

If they were to bring one feature from this gen back though, I'd go with the combination of the Special Attack and Special Defense onto one stat. That was pretty cool and way easier than trying to remember 2 additional attack and defense stats.
