Kind of a weird thread for a 35 year old to start (maybe ), but I'm absolutely curious what thoughts are around here on the trading card game, as well as the variants out there.
Last weekend, we spent some time with friends who have a 6 year old absolutely all in on Pokemon (movies and collecting cards). My Son Cal was instantly hooked after he gave him a Charmander and a Pikachu, and since then, we've begun his collection. I spent the next couple days trying to learn how to play it, and realized it's pretty tough for a four year old. That said, Pokemon Go is a mobile game that has been around for a couple years now, and this weekend Cal and I went around hunting and capturing them, and he LOVES it. Kind of cool that 'collect them all' is just as viable as actually playing the card game.
I have a feeling this will be a big part of my life for a while haha. Anyone else collect as a kid/current, or play pokemon with their kids?
