i think playing video games (particularly competitive, strategic ones like MMOs & RTSes) in your formative years really molds you as a person it's no coincidence 90% of us here played WoW, runescape, wc3 etc it's the overlap of being an internet degenerate

Senator Cynthia Lummis
Without the Clarity Act, the digital asset industry will move offshore to any nation that has regulators willing to engage. Every day that we stall is a day we hand our competitors an advantage we won't get back. The Clarity Act is critical to securing our financial future.

Shin Game Design (1995), by Pokemon creator Satoshi Tajiri, represents the very first time the general public could read a detailed description of Pokémon. Published in December 1995 by Enix this was the first retail product to use the name Pocket Monsters. Approximately 15,000 copies initially; it was never mass-reprinted in its original form. It hit shelves two months before the first Pokémon games (Red & Green) were released in Japan (February 27, 1996). It predates the first Pokémon manga (CoroCoro), the first TCG cards (Media Factory/Bandai), and the anime. Most of the 160 page book is Tajiri's thoughts on popular games of the day such as Super Mario Brothers. 4 pages, 156-159 are dedicated to Pokemon where Tajiri explains the Pokemon concept to gamers and designers. It talks about game mechanics, the pokedex, battling, and pokemon trading systems. Tajiri describes his thought process with anchoring Pokemon to the gameboy link cable capability. There are early map sketches. It also describes Tajiri's inspiration for pokemon from Japanese ideas of Menko and Kaiju. It is the definitive pre-history document, published months before the games existed on store shelves. The book itself is an incredible piece of art. The blue dust jacket features a mosaic of 45 different original 8-bit development sprites, including early versions of Rhydon and Gastly, and other items, characters and locations. Because it was a niche book for game designers rather than a children's book, most copies were likely discarded or damaged over the last 30 years. Outside of Pokémon, the book contains Tajiri’s critiques and design theories on classic games like Space Invaders and The Legend of Zelda, providing a blueprint for Game Freak's design philosophy. Surprisingly I have seen a few of these texts still available on ebay Prior to Shin Game Design there are a rare few other public mentions or allusions to Pokemon/Pocket Monsters - 1993 Game Freak Business Card: Featured Satoshi Tajiri’s contact info alongside hand-drawn sketches of Capsule Monsters - An early 1995 Weekly Famitsu (issue 363) magazine mentions teased the upcoming Pocket Monster Game Boy title - 1995 Shoshinkai (Spaceworld) Flyer advertising the game's upcoming release, featuring early Sugimori art and the "Pocket Monsters" logo. Full credit to @aa88_bsb who put me onto this a few weeks ago. And to @OccupyRedRobin for the handy info about the other pre-game release public mentions of Pocket Monsters See this great site for some translation and notes lavacutcontent.com/satoshi-tajiri…

@dazza9x @Pokemon The second mention was an actual Flyer given out at the Spaceworld event that showcased “Pocket Monsters Red & Green” and showed off a demo. Its considered to be the first physical promotional items.

@dazza9x @Pokemon Actually the first public published mention of Pocket Monsters was in a Famitsu Magazine on November 17, 1995 that covered Nintendo’s Space World event that included a mention of a new game called Pocket Monsters. It was only a blurb, but its the first official mention.

@coinbassist @TheBitcoinConf Event was lit. Not as packed as last year but you had a higher signal to noise ratio compared to previous years. As well as diehards who will show up even when things are tough (in the market)

This lucky man @AquaticXCP met one of his heroes today here in Vegas. You could have done the same, but you’re poor and straight and probably scared to meet me because I’m so famous (and richer than you) Sucks to suck i guess (not for him) 🌍☮️

@ShadowofEzra I am not buying that there are inter-dimensional beings. This seems like she is saying crazy things to distract us.

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna says the American public is on the verge of getting long awaited answers, and hints proof of non human life is about to be revealed, describing them as “interdimensional beings.” Luna says she has personally witnessed things she cannot explain and that the public will soon have to “see them for themselves” and draw their own conclusions. “I have observed things that are of non human origin and creation.” “I don’t call them aliens.”
