I got hooked on zelda when I saw this game called "The Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time" and a sword and shield on the cartridge, I loved it so much I decided to become a fan of the series.
I think I got into pokemon first because of the anime, then I got the game and that was darned fun, I had blue and my brother had red, few years later I had silver and he had gold, but that's as far as we went with pokemon games. I'd like to see a full length pokemon game with new original sprites and an updated battle system, but that's just me, I liked the gameboy ones, you could mix gb zelda sprites with pokemon sprites and it would sort of fit in. I doubt we'd want an ocarina of pokemon though
