The original Pokemon Snap was an oddly intriguing game for many fans of the classic franchise. Rather than catching Pokemon in Pokeballs, the player was tasked with capturing them through pictures.

However, fans wanting a nostalgic trip through the first Pokemon photography simulator may be in luck, as recently the initial Pokemon Snap game was given a release date for its arrival in the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack, adding to the expansive roster of N64 games available via the subscription service.
