I like pokemon don't get me wrong it's a good but cheesy rpg i really don't see how the heck "red and blue" made it as far as the did. It makes me sad to see a classic fall to a one track treasure hunt style game like pokemon.
You could honestly change the two games around in that reasoning and it'd look exactly the same. Pokemon is also a classic, FFVII is also a good and cheesy rpg, and neither can be described as a "track treasure hunt style game"
