Pokemon Trading Card Game Brings Trading Card Game to Game Boy – April 10th, 2000 – Today in History
April 10th, 2014 Carl Williams To say Pokemon has been a cash cow for Nintendo is quite an understatement. From the original cards to the cartoon/movies and games based on this franchise money flows.
