Question #2

From Roxy.

Q: What can you tell me about old gaming systems? And what are Poke'mon?

I was not a gamer, so I can't tell you much in detail, but our games you had to watch on a screen in only one dimension. You could play them on the computer, where you would use the keyboard and mouse interface to control the game, or on with a TV where you would use an external controller which could be two-handed or one-handed. We also had mini game systems about the size of my iTouch, again with a two-dimensional screen, and you could control those with buttons or a stylus.

Pokemon was... a game where you collected little animal things and then had them fight each other with magic and stuff like some kind of weird cock fight? And they'd evolve and grow bigger? idk my little brother (human brother) played them. There were also collectible cards.

    1. I guess not? It was really popular. There was also a TV show.

  2. Cyrus: We vaguely remember this "pokemon" game...we don't think we played it, but...
    Say, could you tell us a story or two about Earth? It's okay if you don't want to, but...we don't remember anything about it...so...please?
