My #49 is very a very obvious choice, but actually wasn't on my list last year. However, I famously did a sort of playthrough of a similar game and shared it with VGChartz until Hurricane Sandy ruined my save data.


Yeah, it was Pokémon Yellow, wasn't it... please tell me I'm right,


It was Pokemon Yellow. However, I'm going to be putting Red/Blue version on the list instead for a number of reasons.

1. They came first, and thus get a senior discount

2. Red/Blue had better starters, especially from a pure gameplay Point of View

3. Yellow didn't really add as much as one would hope, other than some balancing

4. In my mind, Pokemon Red/Blue gets extra credit for revolutionizing handheld gaming as we know it, making it something distinct but not inferior to console gaming. And as a handheld fan, I owe at least a low ranking vote to this pair of nearly identical titles.
