History

Historical Context

Satoshi Tajiri founded Game Freak in 1989, evolving from a fanzine into a game development company. Inspired by his childhood hobby of insect collecting, he conceived Pokémon in 1990, leading to the release of Pokémon Red and Green in 1996. The games sold over 31 million copies, revitalizing Nintendo's handheld market and establishing a multibillion-dollar franchise that continues to innovate today.
