The wait for the re-release of Pokemon Snap is almost over for Wii U owners in North America. The Nintendo 64 classic will launch via the console’s Virtual Console service tomorrow, January 5, for $9.99. It has been available in Japan, Europe, Australia and New Zealand since last year. Pokémon Snap allows you to travel to Pokémon Island and meet Professor Oak to begin a safari to take the best possible photographs of 63 different Pokémon. The island has many types of climates and environments to explore, along with secret activities and hidden passages to discover. Some of the Pokémon can be a little shy and won’t pose for the camera unless you tease them with special items! After you’re done, submit one picture of each Pokémon to Professor Oak, who’ll judge it based on size, pose, technique and number of Pokémon captured. Compatible controllers include the Wii U GamePad, Wii U Pro Controller, Wii Remote, Wii Remote Plus and Wii Remote plus the Classic Controller combination.

It’s definitely a neat take on the standard Pokemon formula. A sequel or full-fledged remake with more Pokemon would be awesome 🙂

It would be…especially considering it didn’t have the original 101 Pokémon from generation one.

Exactly. It only has 63, which isn’t even half of the 151 original
that needs to change! 😀
