    That too. But I think it'll probably download it again at some point if you leave auto updates on since it's being recognized as a recommended update now.

      What age were people here when Pokemon/Digimon first came out in North America? From what I saw, basically anyone under the age of 10 when it first came out(1998 for the Pokemon game and tv show in North America,99 for Digimon), knew about it and liked it.

        But still, if you cancel the reservation, shouldn't that make the update not come back once you do delete it?

          '98, so...I was 17. And I did feel a little out of my age group playing it - part of the reason I only played the first gen.

          Much later on, when I didn't care about such things anymore, I did pick up X for the 3DS.

              As much as I liked Pokemon in the 90s and all, it got harder for me to keep up with it when they kept releasing new games on new systems. I had the original gameboy, so I had pokemon red. Then not too long after, gameboy color came out and they had gold/silver. Then gameboy advance with multiple games and so on.

              Not to mention I really hated the S1 ending and start of S2 when
              Spoiler
              . So all that just lead to me tuning out of it. And the TV Schedule I don't even remember what it was. Back then,it was just the tv guide which came in the newspaper, so I never knew when to even look for Pokemon or know if it was a new episode or if I missed anything.

              Digimon on the other hand, I liked all the way through to S3. S1 easily was the best one,but it's a shame that Digimon wasn't as big as Pokemon.

                I was 11 in 98 and it was a deal in 6th grade. They banned Pokemon trading cards because it was so popular but going into Jr High things changed as it was considered more of a children's game.

                  Thanks for the rundown. Nice summary. New jobs killing my time. Much more cooking here than my last place. Much much more.

                    lol,I remember when teachers started trying to get pokemon stuff banned at my school. Part of reason was cause people would try and steal other peoples cards. It got so popular,recess at one point was almost exclusively people just sitting around in various circles on the blacktop, just playing pokemon card game while others watched. They banned gameboys from school,not just in class, but like actually during recess too. That one was mostly cause teachers were just rebelling against kids having electronic devices.

                    Stupid thing when a teacher caught you with a gameboy during recess,and taking it,and only way you could get it back was the teacher calling your parents to say you got in trouble at school. They made it seem like you had it in class or something, and you were selling drugs lol. It was just a pokemon game on gameboy. You brought it to school to play,and use your friends link cable to trade pokemon!

                    Though that also lead to some teachers being the "cool teacher" who'd let kids bring gameboys to class for freetime. Or people just going to the furthest part of the playground to play the game,so if they spotted a teacher coming their direction,they could hide it quickly.

                        Chef Matt's probably thinking:

                        "Huh, I see they'll let anyone be a mod these days"
