Released in 1999 by Nintendo & HAL Laboratory, Pokémon Snap is a first-person rail shooter and simulation video game. The objective of the game is to take pictures of Pokémon, using items such as apples and "pester balls" to achieve better shots. After each round, players are judged based on the quality of their photos. The Virtual Console version features the ability to send pictures taken in the game to the Wii Message Board and send them to friends. Pokémon Snap originally started out as a non-Pokémon game called Jack and the Beanstalk, Jack and the Beanstalk was first revealed in February 1995, a year before the Japanese release of the N64, but the game was not heard from again. No screenshots or videos have been publicly released of it, and little is known about what the game looked or played like. However, it is speculated that some gameplay elements ended up in EarthBound 64, which started development in 1994 but was cancelled in 2000. Download Pokemon Snap N64
