Very Good Pokemon game. Besides the obvious performance issues (which they are starting to patch), it is a pretty impressive version of Pokemon.

Very fun. Its still a bit buggy, maybe some updates will fix it, but nonetheless it is still easy to get lost in the nastalgia of catching Pokémon!

I love the new open world concept of the game. It makes it a little easier to choose your own path and what you want to do., while keeping the same type of pokemon game going. One of the downsides is that just like recent pokemon games, it doesnt mean a lot to build up Pokemon rosters and fill your pokedex. Your starter is basically the only one you need to use and it takes away from wanting to truly battle with all the different pokemon. I want the old roster style back where you had to work to level up your Pokemon.

The game is great on switch 2. One of my favorite recent Pokémon games, and the DLC are great too.

Runs much better on the Switch 2 than the original switch. A little slow in the beginning.

I have never been much of a Pokemon fan but the open world and cool new Pokémon designs persuaded me to give it a try. I found the story sweet and not too overbearing. The depth of gameplay is surprisingly deeper than I thought it would be. Traveling the open world and catching pokemon and battling is everything I hopes it would be

Pokemon Scarlet dazzles with its vibrant world, introducing captivating new Pokemon and innovative mechanics. The game’s dynamic battles and engaging storyline keep players hooked, while its stunning visuals breathe life into every corner. With its blend of nostalgia and fresh features, Scarlet offers an exhilarating journey for both veteran and new trainers

I am sure many players by now know that this game is glitchy. Game Freak pushed it out far too quickly. It is a real shame, I hope they have a patch for the multitude of glitches soon. Other than that, its an okay game. Three objectives rather than just victory road. The open world is a welcome change, no more being forced on a certain path. It is still a pokemon game in the end.

Always been a fan of pokemon games and this one takes it to the next level! Despite hearing about performance issues… i have yet to notice any problems playing the game other than slower frame rates when using handheld mode. Don’t listen to the haters. Ive been playing since red/vlue and this one is a huge upgrade

Great game I recently just got back into Nintendo and I am in love with this game!! It's definitely different from the late 90s early 00s OG games but it's great and worth a shot if you are a pokemon fan or just want some nostalgia with an update on graphics.
