Pokémon Snap

Pokémon Snap is a first-person photography game featuring 63 of the 151 original Pokémon (not counting the Pokémon Signs). You take pictures of Pokémon on an island in the Kanto region, imaginatively called Pokémon Island.

For a short while, you could even bring your N64 memory card to participating Blockbuster Video outlets (or Toys R Us in Australia) and have your pictures printed out on their machines. CHAAAAAAAAA!

Virtual Console Changes
Snap was the first Pokémon game released on the Virtual Console, and one of the first Virtual Console games to have modifications to the original ROM. Nintendo modding, go figure.

Send to the Wii Message Board
Once per day, the player can send one of the photos they took to the Wii Message Board by going to the gallery, choosing a picture, and then pressing - on the Classic Controller or (if using a GameCube controller) the first player's Wii Remote.

While this mimics the Snap stations that were available when the game was released, it's kind of pointless unless the player has a lot of people on their friend list.

Jynx
Jynx's face was changed from black to purple, to match the Pokémon's modern design.
