Pokémon Stadium is a special N64 game available now in Japan. Pokémon
Stadium allows two players to port their Pokémon from their Gameboy game
Paks, via a special Controller Pak, onto their N64 game Pak. Once
ported, the Pokémon are transformed into dazzling 3-D polygonal beasts
of war! Imaging being able to see Pikachu's Thundershock or Charmander's
Flame Spin in 3-D! There are actually two Stadium games in Japan. The
first game will only display 80 Pokémon. Pokémon Stadium 2 is a vast
improvement over the original. Not only will you be able to use all 151
Pokémon (yes, Mew too, if we can find her!) but you will also be able to
play your GameBoy adventure on the N64, like the Super GameBoy!
Though no U.S. release date has been set, if we do see Pokémon Stadium
over here, it will more than likely be the Japanese Pokémon Stadium 2
(it will probably be only known as Pokémon Stadium here in the states).
If we have a chance at all, you should look for it in the second quarter
of 1999
This is the special Controller
Pak you use to play PM
Stadium. It will be bundled with
the game like the Rumble Pak
in StarFox 64.
