Introduction:

Disclaimer; This review is only to inform you of this game, not to get you to buy an illegal game or do anything else illegal. Remember this game is pirated! It should come as no surprise to you that after a big fad such as Pokemon, Pikachu and gang would eventually wind up on the Famicom. Not only do they appear once, they appear in a whole series of pirated Famicom games.

Story:

Pokemon Blue is a hack of Wacky Racers. Not really a story here but since there were Pokemon put in this game you might get a kick out of this cheap rip-off. That's right I said it come on this game wasn't even made by Nintendo just some person looking to make a few bucks. But since they made this game I must review it.

Gameplay:

Not much here, Just side-scrolling game that doesn\'t really stand out from the other ones out there.

I give the gameplay: 4/10

Graphics:

8-bit Graphics, they look nice but the Famicom/Nes could handle more. The Pokemon looked like crap there almost just copied and pasted into this game.

I give the graphics: 5/10

Sound:

Normal music and sounds from Wacky racers (that's the real game).

I give the sound: 6/10

Replayability:

I played this game not long and I would never play this hack. (Go play Wacky Racers its much better)

I give the replayability: 2.5/10

Challenge:

Pokemon Blue is an Ok game but like most linear platformers, it lacks replay value and once you've beaten it, there's no reason to play it again - unless you have no other games, of course, but still…The game is too easy and is beaten very quickly and doesn't even have any secrets to give it a worthwhile interest and to keep players hooked on for more than 1 day.

I give the challenge: 6/10

Overall:

Avoid this Hack of Wacky Racers at all costs. This puts a shame on the Wacky Racers and the Pokemon seris.

I give Pokemon Blue (Pirated NES Game): 3/10

Conclusion:

People either love this game or detest it. Personally I enjoyed the game. I wouldn't buy the game but I would recommend renting it.
