Video Business, November, 2000
Family, E, $89.95 Available now NINTENDO Gameplay: Nintendo introduces its voice-recognition technology to Nintendo 64 as a market test for future GameCube and Game Boy Advance games, and it works great. This one-player game allows kids to interact with Pikachu using commands such as "wake up," "come here" and "catch it" in seven 3D environments.
Pikachu recognizes more than 200 words. Bottom line: This is being cross-promotioned with Warner Home Video's Pokemon 2000. With the high price point, this game should make a good rental, but make sure all the extra devices (microphone, voice-recognition unit and others) come back with the cartridge.
