Hagrid's Gift

hagrid gives harry a gift

Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (released in the United States as Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone) is an action-adventure video game based on the 2001 film of the same name. Philosopher's Stone was initially released for the Game Boy Advance, Game Boy Color, Microsoft Windows and PlayStation in November 2001. A different game bearing the same name was made two years later for the GameCube, PlayStation 2 and Xbox in December 2003. The versions on different platforms differ greatly from each other and do not follow the same level structures or gameplay, with somewhat varying stories as well.

The story follows protagonist Harry Potter, who, after discovering he is a wizard, is sent to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry where he makes friends and receives magical training, and along with his friends stop Lord Voldemort from returning to power. The game received mixed reviews. Critics commented on the game's accessible gameplay and its unimpressive graphics (2003 versions) while others said the game's license would be the only thing to draw in fans. The PlayStation version sold 8 million copies by May 2003, which would become Argonaut's best-selling game and one of the best-selling PlayStation video games of all time. #harrypotter #ps1 #hagrid

Considering Hagrid's slow aging, I can't not imagine him currently living as an old gamer in his hut, playing old Nintendo games with students.

Aww. I like how there’s no fucked up punchline for this one; Hagrid is just genuinely being really nice to Harry here.

[Blackhole-TON]

Wasn't expecting this to be wholesome 🥺

[Zanuth-]

That was... genuinely wholesome - I was expecting something cursed.
Thankyou, friend. Thankyou.

The fact is this is exactly how my older brother introduced me to retro gaming about 2 years ago. Makes me tear up

[VinluvAntonHandesbukia]

I love how it isn’t a parody and isn’t even that anachronistic. It’s just a small genuine moment. It could’ve easily been overly crass or irrelevant but it has heart.

[HoboMojo]

Quite wholesome compared to the last video we had with Hagrid.

[MickyD]

I was waiting for it to become scary but it was just really wholesome!

[augustday]

There's something really comfy about the Harry Potter universe, and you've really brought a piece of it to life here. Awesome animation.

PS1 Hagrid is such a treat of a design.

[Not_the_short_guy]

That’s pretty cool how they both vibing with game boys now

[webbersplarg]

This is beautiful, its a casual heartwarming moment and i feel like the world could use a lot more of this types of moments.

This is so fucking wholesome and happy- it could had been a weird/fucked up thing so easily, but i adore this. It reminds me of my uncle when I was young- he got me into pokemon. Ty very much, king.

Now Harry and Hagrid can trade Pokémons with joy, and what a lovely gift!

[tophatgeo]

this is so sweet. absolutely adore the style

[troyX]

Heartwarming, love it! The PS1 era is truly unmatched

[pagado]

I like the detail of Hagrid getting so excited to explain the situation that he knocks his drink over and doesnt even acknowledge it. Hes just to lost in the excitement of playing Pokémon with his friends.

[disheveledAri]

Man, playing pokemon with a friend is one of the best experiences you can have in life.

[WorldNetExplorer]

I actually needed this at the moment. Thank you.

PS1 Hagrid is the definition of Blursed
