It's finally happening, North America is finally joining Europe in having access to Pokémon Snap on the Wii U's Virtual Console. Back in August 2016, European Wii U owners got their hands on the classic N64 game and it only took around five months for the game to make it a bit further West.
Now if you've never played this game, here's the official description of the joys you missed out on:
Travel to Pokémon Island and meet Professor Oak to begin a safari to take the best possible photographs of 63 different Pokémon. The island has many types of climates and environments to explore, along with secret activities and hidden passages to discover. Some of the Pokémon can be a little shy and won't pose for the camera unless you tease them with special items! After you’re done, submit one picture of each Pokémon to Professor Oak, and he'll judge it based on size, pose, technique, and number of Pokémon captured. Start practicing if you want to snap the perfect shot!
Recently someone managed to get Pokémon Snap running on their 3DS, something that only made the thirst for the game even more real. Fortunately, we only have to wait until January 5th to get our hands on the game for $9.99.
