[edit] Bravo!

I congratulate whoever updated the article to its present state. I've tried getting it this good for ages. Well done! *throws confetti in the air* --Evilgidgit 10:36, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

I'm glad you like it, although the article still needs quite a bit of work. Guermantes 17:16, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hoax?

Once, this site said that you could unlock a Mewtwo course by getting 10000 points for the Mew picture. Is this true?

No.

[edit] Lists

Since only 63 of the Pokemon from the first generation are in this game, would it be appropriate to include a list of those that appear? Also, how about lists for the seven courses and the Pokemon Signs, as well? Leprechaun Gamer 22:18, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

Lists are usually unimportant and unencyclopeidc. The specific levels and Pokemon are pretty worthless in an encyclopedic view. Nemu 22:27, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

If it can be expressed succinctly and it enhances the breadth and depth of knowledge about the game (i.e. "how do we make the article more comprehensive without making it look silly"), then that's what I would call 'encyclopedic'. The levels can be listed in 1 sentence. The pokemon can be listed in about 3 lines. I personally don't find the article in its current state to be particularly informative or comprehensive. It's very light on detail. alexpenev 18:48, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

Well, I thought that a list of the courses would give the reader an idea of what the island looks like. However, if someone has a picture of the island (including Rainbow Cloud), they could just put that in.Leprechaun Gamer 20:40, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

A list would drastically lower thequality of this article. Philbuck222 (talk) 11:37, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Illigitimate EGN Review?

I looked for the EGN review of Pokemon Snap but all I could find is the user ratings perhaps that part should be removed? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kurowoofwoof111 (talk • contribs) 04:32, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
