Summary: Powerful software, great for kids and others too
Review: Although it did not include sticker paper and the rest of the project paper included was extremely limited, the graphics are great and the variety of projects to make is worth the price paid. Instructions are easily understood. The program is so simple that you can start working with it inmediately. I had no problem using a Lexmark 3200 printer for the shrink paper or any kind of project.

Summary: Disappointing
Review: As a both a fan of pokémon and creating crafts, I was somewhat disappointed with this product. First of all, I did not receive any "sticker paper" as promised in the product description. The next big disappointment occured when, after reading the fine print, I realized my printer was not reccommeded for use with the shrink sheet or sticker paper (had I recieved any,that is). Lexmark Jetprinter 2050 users, as well as HP DeskJet 1200/1600c users, beware.

Summary: Good program - no support
Review: Firstly, these programs (Red and Blue)are easy to use, and allow many creative projects as part of the Print Shop family.

However, having bought these last Christmas, I have found that Mattel (owner of The Learning Co.) no longers offers support for these programs.

Additionally, while they advertise that you must get both programs to "get all the pokemon" you can not share the graphics between the programs. This means that you must launch them separately and keep separate projects in order to use all the pokemon -- very unfriendly.

Summary: unstable software
Review: I actually have the "red" version of this software (which Amazon does not sell) but assume the basic platform is the same. The software crashed my daughter's machine repeatedly; I had to load it on my own computer for her to finish her project. Even then, it crashed my machine as well, several times, before I finally cut-and-pasted her work into PowerPoint to get it printed. I'm uninstalling both copies - she had some fun with it, but it's not worth the aggravation.

Summary: Very good, some flaws in program.
Review: Pokemon Project Studio Blue Version is definitely a good program to use for making a Pokemon project. When I used the program, it was very good, but had one or two flaws. If you install both versions, you can use all of the Pokemon. The only flaw is that when I tried to transfer Pokemon from one version to another, no good. It wouldn't be able to transfer. What that simply means is that you can't use different Pokemon from another version on the other version. That can be a major hassle at times. But otherwise, a very good program to use and the results are excellent. An overall 4 stars.

Summary: Powerful software, great for kids and others too
Review: Very powerful software. Had all the key Pokemon my son wanted. Very easy to manipulate objects, including sizing and rotation. Easy to create from scratch, modify existing templates, or move motifs from templates to blanks. Can create many lovely items w/o Pokemon if you so wish. Easy, easy, easy to use by kids. I had trouble loading it and received excellent tech support from the publisher! A great experience overall.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Cool!
Review: Wow! Nintendo has done it again! You can make sooo many things with this program! I own both of them, but this one is my fav. This is definately worth your money, and is the perfect gift for any Pokémon fan!
