Great game! My bf and I both love it (we are 28 and 29). We also bought the Pokeball Plus, which connects to this game and to Pokémon Go. We both send our pokémon from Pokémon Go on our phones to the Lets Go Pikachu game, and we can catch them and play with them in the switch game. The pokémon go game gets us outside in the yard and woods walking around, then at night we'll settle in to move the pokémon we caught in the woods to the Lets Go switch game. We can also both play this game together. When there are hard battles, we can ask the other to jump in and help. Its all very fun, this game in conjunction with Pokemon GO has been a great activity in our relationship. Thanks Best buy!

I thought the game was good but I want more battles against wild pokemon and the fact that you can change your character and pikachu's clothes is cool. Playing with pikachu is an added bonus

This is the Pokemon game we've always wanted. A classic remake of the original red, blue, and yellow. Great graphics, fun options, and a great New catching mechanic makes for an enjoyable game that feels new in it's own way.

So, my kid was the one that grew up playing Pokémon games on Gameboy. I remember watching the anime and collecting some of the merch when it first came to the states, but I never played any of the games before (except Pokémon Go on my phone). I always really loved Pokémon and catching them on my phone, so when I got a Switch I knew this was going to be my first game! I really enjoy this game and finally feel like I haven't missed out on the Pokémon experience! My understanding is Let's Go Pikachu is basically Pokémon Yellow, which suits me just fine as Pikachu is one of my faves! I am not going to do a big review of the game on here, but I can tell you if you like Pokémon, you will have fun!

My kids were never really into Pokémon but both decided to buy the game after playing it in store and they absolutely love it. I have a 13y boy and 9y girl who are really enjoying playing with/against each other.

I opened this game and couldn't stop playing. I had Pokemon Blue growing up and never played Yellow. Beat this game pretty easily. Really enjoyed the story and seeing allow the original Pokemon. Can't wait for the new one!

The last time I played Pokémon it was back in 2000 on my copy of Yellow. I loved everything about the game except for how easy it was compared to games like Final Fantasy at the time. Nonetheless the whole idea of Pokémon resonated with me and I was hooked. After playing for awhile, I’ll get this major issue out of the way first... You have to play the game with a single Joy Con. There’s no way around it, you’re forced to play that way and while I understand why it still sucks to not have a choice. Also, there are motion mechanics built in that mirror Pokémon GO. Some people won’t kind it and some will but for the most part of say they did a good job making it easy to play. You can dress your Pokémon up with accessories, have them follow you or (this is my favorite) you can mount and ride certain ones around town. Galloping across town on the back of an Arcanine was one of my stand out memories. If you’re a Pokémon fan and yearn for the roster that started it all then you’ll find a lot to love with this game. And if you’re a parent looking for something for your child to play with you then the co op mechanic is wonderful.

this game is so much fun. It's easy to understand.

I’ve been playing Pokémon for more than 10 years. This game is a little different as it’s easier for entry Pokémon fans. It’s not so focused on battling but it’s a nice predecessor to what’s to come to Switch from Pokémon

I have always love the Original Pokemon games for Gameboy. This has a very similar story with a lot of cool updates.

This is a great game for kids and adults who grew up loving the games and cartoons. For those who play Pokemon Go, it is nice to be able to link accounts and gain candy for Pokemon.

A cute introductory Pokemon game. It has some controls from the mobile game Pokemon Go, and the instructions are simple to follow.

I have been a fan of this series since a young child. This game's take on the original game has been one of my favorite, even with the lack of challenge. Great nostalgia for anyone that had a gameboy back in the day.

Playing this with the switch, takes me back to playing the yellow version on the gameboy color, a great reimagining of the game, the only negative thing that i can think is that you cannot use the pro controller

If you were around during gen 1, this will take you back, with a feel of Pokémon go and Pokémon yellow, but ash/Gary’s little brothers instead.

My 5 year old was able to run around and catch a bunch of Pokemon, and win some battles without much help from me. And as a Pokemon Red fan, this reminded me of all the good times I had with my Gameboy.

A well executed pokemon game that harkens back to the original adventures. It is familiar enough to appeal to the older players of the series while changing things up just enough as to make the adventure feel new.

I've been waiting for a mainline game for a while and thought this would just hold me off. After playing for 20 hours I can firmly say this is more than just a hold over and a welcomed addition to the pokemon games!

This game was a different invision of my childhood versions but turned out great i love this game.

My kids love these titles. The Let's Go games are their favorite in the series! Really incredible graphics on the Switch and Switch Lite and so much fun the the Poke Ball accessory!
