"A good game for only pokemon fans."

This is the sorta first pokemon game installment for the nintendo ds. The game is entitled Pokemon Dash. The only object of this game is to win races using the adorable Pokemon that everyone loves:PIKACHU!

Graphics
The graphics are okay. The regular typical PS1-ish graphics. I'll give it a 8.
8/10

Gameplay
Usually some people say that the gameplay sucks, I know, it sucks! Only for those who hate it. This game is kind of tiring because you're testing your reflexes by striking the stylus as fast as you can in order to make Pikachu go faster.
7/10

Overall
I could recommend it to pokemon fans like myself. And It's your decision, rent or buy. If you're a pokemon fan, buy, if you want to give it a shot, rent. I haven't played this yet but I've seen screenshots and videos of this game.
8/10

Okay, I can just tell you the objective of the game: You play as the adorable Pikachu and you have to use the stylus and strike it in the touch screen depending on how fast you strike it. If it's fast, Pikachu will go fast and vice-versa. You can upload some courses from your gba games like from Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald. There are also some pickups on the way as you race. Like Pikachu riding in a hot air balloon in order to become first or make it run through lava or any other obstacles you encounter. I could like this game. This might be a winning trophy for my ds game collection and a good addition. Anyway, Nintendo and Game Freak tried their best to come up with a new pokemon game concept. So we should be proud and instead of giving them a negative attitude to their game by giving it bad reviews or anything. At least Game Freak and the Pokemon Company made a new concept to try to make their pokemon games successful. And maybe, some day, Pokemon Dash might become succesful. This game will become my new addition to my ds collection. And I'll play it and enjoy it! And you should enjoy too!
