S01 Episode 7: July 2000 & 1998 Pokémon Launch Event in Topeka, KS

It's July 2000: E3 coverage is coming to a close, and Nintendo Power's not afraid to tell you they're the best, the PS2 stinks, and everyone knows it. Join EP as she explores the Dreamcast's SegaNet launch titles, examines one popular face painted band's FPS stunner, ponders the edible nature of Spyro the Dragon gems, and reveals a powerful cheat code for Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2, straight from the Secret Codes 2002 book from BradyGAMES. This week's deep dive tells the unbelievable story of the (literal?) 1998 drop of Pokémon in the United States, and one town's quest to keep up with the times. Games discussed include: Black and White, Half-Life, Pokémon Red and Blue, Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2, Majora's Mask, Phantasy Star Online, and more.
