Customers are saying

Customers find value in the engaging gameplay and nostalgic elements of Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu!, particularly enjoying the innovative Poké Ball Plus controller. Many appreciate the game's ease of use and consider it fun for players of all ages, although some find the price point a bit high and the Poké Ball Plus somewhat small. The simplified catching mechanics are a point of contention for some, while others wish for a more challenging experience. Overall, the game is praised for its charming remake of a classic, but opinions vary on certain aspects of the design and price.

    Boring game after a while. Pokémon Go is better

    The game got boring after a short while. We were baited into this game thinking they'd be as many updates to this game as there is to Pokémon Go. We still play that game. We no longer play this.

    Looks great, but controls poorly.

    The Pokeball feels great and seeing the character in HD is a sight, however... TERRIBLE controls lead to serious FRUSTRATION. The motion control is very inaccurate and has led to a lot of unnecessary annoyance for me and my little one.

    Bought this for my 7 year old for Christmas, the ball controller is very hard to work. Save $40 and just buy the game.

    Game looks like an upscaled 3DS game, and a quick cash-in. Pokeball control gets old fast.

    If you were hoping this would be an HD switch remaster of your favorite childhood game, you will be disappointed. It’s been dumbed down to the point that you could probably beat the game hitting nothing but the A button.

    Not A Remake!

    This game is just basically Pokemon Yellow changed to mimic Pokemon Go. Its literally Pokemon Go for the Switch with Pokemon Yellows story. Definitely not a true entry in the series.

    Catch mechanics leave alot to be desired. The motion controls do not work well and the ball will fly off in a random direction most of the time

    A Great Kanto Journey!

    A game being able to make someone smile and bring joy through the majority of the gameplay is pretty incredible. Pokemon Let’s Go captured the essence of Pokemon and what it would feel like to be a Pokemon trainer. My first Pokemon game was Red version, and I grew up with gen 1, especially watching the Pokemon anime often. So this game took me on a nostalgic trip I wouldn’t soon forget. Pokemon Let’s Go deserves a rating of 9 out of 10.

    Can't hate Pikachu

    Great for a casual gameplay experience and a nostalgia trip. The game is fun and beautiful. The included Poke Ball plus makes the catch mechanics feel more immersive and fun but it does have less buttons than a joycon so some things annoyingly require switching to a joycon.

    Its the pokemon game that I grew up with. Yes there is some differences but it just how I remember. This game is great. It feels a little easy but at the same time I am older than I was then. Just a great game, and with the ball you get mew! bonus!

    Great Pokemon Game

    Game is spectacular. So cool that you have options, joycons, hand held, or pokeball as controls. Would be cool to have pro controller support, but it's fun interacting with the motion controls. Highly recommended. Thanks Bestbuy

    They've made a lot of changes to this game that differs from the traditional Pokemon games, and I've loved every one of them! The ability to add another player to your experience is a great way to play with a friend as well!
