This game is different than the original version in that you catch wild Pokemon by simply throwing Pokeballs at them rather than fighting them. All of the Pokemon in your party will also gain experience when you catch Pokemon this way. Overall the difficulty and time spent leveling up your team is drastically reduced.

This is a great casual pokemon game. Keep me entertained for about 40 hours. There's a great post game (defeating the master trainers) but it's a huge grind. The Pokemon are level 75 so leveling up all your pokemon to 75ish can take awhile. Seeing the pokemon in the overworld is great and I hope this transfers over to the main series. :)

Good game for kids Pros: Graphics, nostalgia Cons: Catching mechanics No Pokemon abilities

I played the original Pokemon Yellow when I was a kid many, many times, but this is definitely the best version I have ever played. The graphics are night and day different, but it makes the game so much more entertaining. They have also made a lot of quality of life improvements to make the game less grindy than it was 20 years ago.

Good game, not great. Really don't like the way you catch them. only viable in Pokemon GO. Other than that great nostalgia.

So this game is very similar to the original Pokemon that we played on the Gameboy, with just a few differences like fighting team rocket.. Im really enjoying playing this right now and collecting the original 150. I'm hoping they will come out with an update or another game that will let you collect the more/ different Pokemon

Pokemon Let's Go Pikachu is a remake of Pokemon Yellow, combined with features from the Pokemon Go phone app. The game is beautiful, especially when you compare it to the original and is a great casual Pokemon game for new people to the world of Pokemon. Not without its drawbacks, but plays wonderfully.

So I haven't played Pokémon since yellow back in the day (last century!!). I'm 40 and decided to pick up Let's Go Pikachu! I am completely addicted to it. It is simple enough for me and my busy lifestyle but keeps me very entertained. I hope they make the sequel to this and let me bring over my old pokemon to make a huge pokedex!

Great game my son loves it. easy to play.. lots of fun

The game has great graphics and fun for whole family

It’s a Pokémon game so of course it’s going to be fun. It’s a little bit too easy though.

This game is so fun!! I love Pikachu so I had to get this game. It's a chill Pokemon game. The only thing is I wish you could use the Pro controller on it, but I play this mostly in handheld so I'm not too bothered by that. Love this game!!

I was a little sceptical when looking into this game because pokemon Go for mobile got old really really fast. I was worries the same would happen with this game. It has definitely not been the case. It's been so fun to play and reminds me of playing pokemon back in the gameboy days but with better graphics! Love the game!

Fun to play easy to start, battling others is fun!

While this isn’t a perfect recreation of Pokémon Yellow as it’s based on, it is still very nostalgic if you grew up with classic Pokémon. The changes they’ve made allow the game be more accommodating to fans of greater age range, while still providing a fun and rewarding challenge.

Fun game, especially for people who grew up with Pokémon Red/Blue/Yellow. Seeing the Pokémon on the field is a game changer, as you can pick and choose your encounters now. The catching instead of battling mechanic is where you will either love or hate this game.

The best thing about this game is being able to share the gaming experience with someone and reliving the good days of the original 151 pokemon. It really closes the generation gap so you can play with your child and show them all the things you know about the pokemon world graphics are amazing and gameplay is awsome

This game has been fun from the get go! This brings back the fun that Red/Blue gave me as a kid. The only downside is not battling against Pokemon like Red/Blue and the other games were like. The catching sticks to what Pokemon Go did. Other than that, the game has been fun, it keeps a resemblance to what Yellow was.

My wife and I played it together. Had a blast. 30-40 hours of fun if you enjoy Pokemon games; it's a must buy. Don't try to catch them all though unless you have a copy of Eevee as well. Or if a friend has it. And the pokeball plus... You'll never do it, Ash. Just stay in Pallet Town until you go buy that stuff.

This is a remake of the original Pokémon for the game boy. It’s a whole new experience and it’s a nice one. No longer will you walk around aimlessly hoping for a battle. The Pokémon are out in the open and you can see them fly around or run around you. The battle reminds me Pokémon stadium.
