I heard they were going to make a Pokémon RPG for Nintendo 64! (Some mockups)
So, I heard GameFreak was thinking about release a Pokémon game for Nintendo 64 circa 1998~99, but they dropped the project for unknown reasons. So almost 20 years later I decided to make some mockups of how the game could have been.
To be honest I don’t even know if the Nintendo 64 hardware was going to be able to handle some of these mockups (in realtime) so I cranked down all the polygon count of all models that I could. This is the Pokémon Center.
Route 20 heading to Cinnabar.
A random battle and my fav Pokémon.
The PC, according to some Ken Sugimori sketches.
The Route 12, leaving Lavender Town.
The Pokémon Tower, I made some changes to it.
That little boy who talks nonsense out of nowhere in Route 3.
Playing around with the menus in the Route 2 next to Pewter.
Route 10 heading to Lavender Town.
The most epic and exciting moment in the whole game in my opinion, the encounter with Mewtwo in the Unknown Cave.
The first hardest decision of our lives!
The Safari Zone and the very well hidden GOLD TEETH.
The Route 17! This one was also kinda rethinked, I didn’t know if the level designers intention was to really make a bridge or they only made this for the anime series.
A hypothetic cover for the game, I think in this case they would do a high detailed 3d still but I like some ken sugimori art, it’s nostalgic and cool.
