The Pokémon mini (Japanese: ポケモンミニ Pokémon Mini) is a handheld game console designed and manufactured by Nintendo only for specifically tailored Pokémon mini-games. It is the smallest cartridge-based system that Nintendo has ever produced. It includes an LCD screen and a directional control pad. Features also include an infrared port, a timer, a shock detector, and a vibrator for force feedback. Some of the Pokémon mini games were included in the Nintendo GameCube game Pokémon Channel, which contains an emulator of the Pokémon mini itself.
