I should've been bored out of my mind playing this game. And yet... I wasn't? Not sure what it was, but watching TV with Pikachu & visiting other Pokémon to collect little trading cards was stimulating enough for childhood me. Not sure if I'd last as long with this game as an adult, but I can't knock Pokémon Channel for being something completely different & decently put together. The Pichu Bros. anime shorts alone are worth taking a peek at this game out of curiosity if nothing else.
