This morning, I arose abnormally early to the initial release trailer for 2 new Pokémon game for the Nintendon Switch, Pokémon: Let’s Go Pikachu and Let’s Go Eevee. Well this new games finale bring Pokémon to the Switch platform and use the console in a different way, I am having a hard time figuring out just who this is a game for.
Based the trailer, Nintendo and The Pokèmon Company are hoping to cash in on both nostalgia Pokèmon Yellow and the hype of Pokèmon Go.
Essentially, LGP and LGE are Pokémon Go enabled modern remakes of the 20 year Pokémon Yellow. Players will use a single joy con to explore the world and catch’em all. On top of that players will be able to swap all 150 original Pokémon and their Aloha back and forth bewreen Pokémon Go and LGP/LGE. Also LGP/ LGE will include a local coop mode.
Basic on the trailer, I feel this a game for those children and those who return to Pokémon when Go was released into the world. I can see parents going out to parks and malls to play Go with their little one and coming home to batt l.j e their newly catch Pokemon in Kanto. Thru LGP/LGE. This game brings much requested PVP to Pokémon Go. I do believe this game is just a start. Depending on sales expect to see DLC to unlock the rest of the regions or sequels such as Let’s Go Cyndaquil. Well LGP/LGE, are interesting game, and I look forward to playing, these two games do not live up to expectation most of the community has been waiting for. Most pokemon fans were expecting a fall 2017 release of Pokemon Switch title. Only hope that this is enough to hold fans over to the next Pokemon game in 2019.
So what are your thoughts on the new trailer? Are you excited for so let’s go Pikachu and let’s go Eevee or were you expecting more?
