]]> 54: Pokemon Trading Card Game (GBC) (with Bill Barber - Gaming & Collecting Podcast) https://talesfromthebacklog.fireside.fm/54 f0cfd9cc-037b-4225-93b2-217a491cf1aa Wed, 07 Dec 2022 00:00:00 -0500 Dave Jackson full 1 Dave Jackson Dave is joined by Bill Barber from Gaming & Collecting podcast to discuss the GameBoy Color adaptation of the Pokemon Trading Card game. 1:11:55 yes In this episode, I go back to the nostalgia well for one of my favorite games from childhood- the Pokemon Trading Card Game, for Gameboy Color. I grew up collecting the cards but not really playing the actual card game, except with this handy game. And this game was still pretty fun to revisit, but got very frustrating to see all of my strategies reduced to "Do you win the coin flips? If so, you win. If not, sucks to suck!".
