Nintendo single-handedly defined gaming during the childhoods of many gamers. Nintendo’s classics like Mario, Zelda, Pokemon, Animal Crossing, and Animal Crossing are considered the trailblazers of gaming history. These games revolutionized the gaming industry and their influence is still prominent to this day.

Not only did these games influence the gaming industry, but also the entire world. We can take Pokemon as a great example. The Pokemon franchise has grown much more than a gaming series. From phenomenally successful Anime and movie adaptions to merchandise and books. The pocket monsters or Pokemon have seen astronomical success, making it one of the highest-grossing franchises of all time! 

Seeing the sheer size of the franchise, it won’t be surprising to know that Pocket Monsters has one of the most loyal and craziest fan bases in the world. Fans of Pokemon can go any distance to have their hands on the latest merchandise of their favorite characters. And some lucky fans can even make a good profit from collections at the right time.
