Two games were released in Japan on 27 February 1996: "Pokémon Red Edition" and "Pokémon Green Edition" - for the Game Boy. 20 years later, the anniversary is being celebrated: With 3 highly limited Nintendo 2DS consoles, inspired by the classic editions that started it all. They are available from us while stocks last!

With the new Special Editions, Nintendo is celebrating the beginnings of the Pokémon phenomenon and taking inspiration from the classic editions that started it all. The three bundles will be released on 27 February 2016, exactly 20 years after the very first Pokémon game. They contain a Nintendo 2DS in transparent colour, the pre-installed Pokémon game of the respective colour and 15 stickers with which the console can be decorated to the player's taste. Plus a download code for a new HOME menu design.

The consoles are very limited and will be allocated after receipt of the pre-order! The offers that no longer have a sale price are unfortunately already sold out.

New Pokémon games

New games are also being released in the anniversary year. The first has already been released, with (at least) a second to follow in mid-February. In "Pokémon Rumble World", you can experience an exciting adventure with over 700 Pokémon characters and explore different areas in hot air balloons. In "Pokémon Super Myster Dungeon", you become one of 20 Pokémon to choose from and set off in search of the cause of disturbing events.
