When it comes to famous franchises, one would immediately think of some of the big titans of the industry. Names such as McDonalds, Microsoft, Apple, Sony, and many others might come to mind, but one of the biggest names in video games has to go to the Nintendo company. Off of their success at publishing video games, an even bigger pop culture phenomenon came from their creation: Pokemon.
Pokemon is one of the most well known, if not THE most well known, series of games, television, playing cards, and merchandise out there. Spanning all the way back from 1996 to today, for over 21 years this series has been in the minds and hearts off fans all over the world. With the characters from the series being plastered over ever form of sell-able merchandise, from lunchboxes to hospital IVs, it comes as no surprise that there are some very interesting and unique marketing attempts. One of Pokemon’s newest endeavors comes in the form of a giant symphonic orchestra.
The “Pokemon Symphonic Evolutions” orchestra remasters some of the most iconic tunes that would spill out of the old gray brick game boy that flooded from the speakers and into your ears, and remasters it in full orchestra in an attempt to fill your body with that classic nostalgia. Spanning from the series’ first ever games of Red, Green, and Blue, and extending all the way up to the most recent of Sun and Moon, the orchestra does an excellent recap of the series’ highlights and most iconic themes.
The most recent upcoming showing will be in Orlando, FL, at the Walt Disney Theater, so if you are a fan of Pokemon, Orchestras, or you like making fun of people that can obsess so much over one series, this is a must see event.
