Sony’s PlayStation 5 killer app (personally, I think Demon’s Souls is the true killer app), Spider Man: Miles Morales, flunked at the box office with only 600,000 units moved during the launch period.

Pokémon Gold and Silver: The Best Pokémon Entry
When it comes to Pokémon, I am no stranger. I have enjoyed every generation since the beginning, but none have quite matched the effect that generation 2 had on me.
