Game is great. And the ball plus is way more fun than I thought. You can hear the voice of Pokémon from the poke ball.

The game itself is more or less a straight forward remake of Pokemon Yellow with some new paint and new mechanics to closely match the mobile capture and battle experience of Pokemon GO. This isn't perfect but it scratches the Pokemon itch until a proper switch title is out. The controller is a lot more accurate to play with when using motion control than the joycons! Overall a fun remake that works best if you're familiar but serves as a nice entry point to the series.

If you love Pokemon games you will love this game. This game has a different spin on the series instead of battle Pokemon to catch them you catch them by throwing pokeball. I didnt think I would enjoy using motion controls for throwing balls at Pokemon but it is quite enjoyable. Also I love seeing the pokemon in the over world instead of having random encounters. The Pokeball Plus adds a nice feature to the game experience although is not needed to play the game.

Growing up in the '90s with the introduction of Pokémon meant that this was a must have for me. I have lots of fond memories of my childhood playing Pokémon Yellow and this remake made me full of nostalgia. It keeps all of the best parts of Yellow and merges it with a great new mechanic for interacting with wild Pokémon that makes the game feel more like an adventure and less like a grind as you level up your team. Definitely a must have for any Pokemaniac.

This game combines the app Pokemon Go and the physical game so that you can take your Pokemon while adventuring outside. It makes you feel like a real Pokemon trailer when you can throw the controller to catch the Pokemon.

I love that they brought some of the old features back! And even some extras! I decided Pikachu be cause starting with Blue and Yellow, I started with Squirtle and instantly searched endlessly for Pikachu. And Yellow you start with. I love you can carry a Pokémon with you in the Ball Plus as well as use it as a controller. It's great for on the go or when you're playing and your Joycon dies. Excellent accessory! Definitely recommend!

finally a console version of pokemon! it does seem like a simplified version of the original, but it's super cute and fun. one thing i don't like is it forces u to use motion controls when docked, but u can simply press A in handheld mode. this doesn't make sense and i hope it will be fixed later with a patch. the game is a bit too easy but i never found it to be challenging. pokemon is just a fun cute, relaxing rpg!

While at first I was apprehensive about the GO mechanic integration, Pokemon: Let's Go, Pikachu/Eevee! has quickly become an addiction of which I haven't experienced with Pokemon in a long time. A week in and I've gotten every badge, beaten the league, knocked off several master trainers, stomped Red, and caught over 1000 Pokemon, with no end in sight. This is so much better than anyone expected, highly recommended.

The Pokeball is a well implemented controller for the game, albeit a little small for my hands. It adds to the immersion of the game and it's a nice accessory if you happen to play PoGo also.
