About Pokemon Snap
Pokemon Snap is a simulator released on the Nintendo 64 on March 21, 1999, and later made available on the 64DD, Wii, and Wii U. It is a single-player, first-person game with action and fantasy themes, developed by HAL Laboratory and Pax Softnica and published by Nintendo. It belongs to the Pokemon Snap series within the wider Pokemon franchise.
The game places you behind a camera as you move through a set of areas, photographing the Pokemon you find there. Scoring well depends on how you frame each shot and on the details you notice about each creature, and Professor Oak awards bonus points for particularly good pictures. Those points help unlock useful items, and the search for the elusive Mew is part of the experience.
The game is rated E for Everyone by the ESRB and PEGI 3 by PEGI, which makes it suitable for a broad range of players. Its focus on exploration and photography sets it apart from the battle-focused entries in the main Pokemon series.
