Generation VIII confirmed?

 

[JWK]

The trailer was for Eevee/Pikachu game looked good but ugh

 

[Taro Tsujimoto]

Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee are essentially Yellow remakes:

 

[Oogie Boogie]

Guess I'm waiting until 2019.

It didn't look like you can battle in it lol

 

[JWK]

Very excited to see people accidentally break their TVs trying to catch pokemon because they didn't use a wrist strap.

 

[Lockheed]

I don't think Let's Go is a core RPG, just a spin off to soak up success of Go.

 

[JWK]

Pokemon quest is available on the Switch right now for free.

Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee is $59.99 USD, guessing the poke ball is separate

We're never getting a Sinnoh remake lol

 

[Taro Tsujimoto]

New Pokémon incoming!

[Lockheed]

I have zero interest in Quest. I'll be skipping LGP/E too since it doesn't seem to be a core game.

Glad they announced a core game coming in 2019.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Pikachu/Eevee feels like the appetizer for what's coming next year. Mildly interested, but I might save my money for 2019's release.

 

[Retrocity]

I'll wait for more details on LGP/E, but I think it should be good depending on how much of Go is integrated. I'm fine with the catching/wild encounter mechanics, and it looks like battling will remain as is from the core games. I am guessing stats will follow the core series mechanics rather than how they are calculated in Go.

 

[YoSoyLalo]

kinda like pokemon colossium in that sense (which was an awesome game)

this looks pretty cool for a spin off; glad they announced a core game coming along side it, i was worried this was a format they would try and integrate into the series

 

[Commander Clueless]

Wait for it....waiiiiit for ittt...


Aaannd interest has dropped to zero.

 

[Habsfan18]

You can’t battle wild Pokemon? It solely uses the Go mechanics? Who thought that was a good idea?

It also doesn't have any online/ multiplayer. It is a spin off game, and I'm kind of glad it is, since I wasn't really interested in the concept in the first place. We'll see what they come out with next year.

 

[Satan]

They should've called it Pokemon Go+

It'll be interesting to see how it sells, but after watching the trailer I'm not interested.

 

[H3ckt1k]

These games look like trash, so disappointed especially considering how bad sun/moon were

 

[Nizdizzle]

Will wait for reviews before considering buying Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee. Glad they announced the core game for 2019 as at least it gives us something to look forward to.

 

[rangerssharks414]

I'll certainly take it if no one else needs, so it doesn't go to waste.

Okay. I’ll message it to you later.

 

[Oogie Boogie]

Let's Go, Pokemon Go!

 

[AfroThunder396]

I'll definitely be getting Let's Go. There were no wild battles in Colisseum or XD either and those game were fine. XD also introduced us to new gen pokemon like Bonsly and Munchlax before Gen 4 was announced.

I like Pogo a lot but I've been getting kinda bored with it lately, and Let's Go seems to be a less watered down version of Pogo.

 

[Habsfan18]

Apparently during the press conference, GF confirmed that the 2019 Switch games will NOT be influenced by Pokemon Go. They’ve been working on them since before the Switch was launched.

They also stated the Pikachu and Eevee Kanto titles were primarily designed as home console titles while the 2019 games will have more of an emphasis on the handheld experience.

 

[kingsboy11]

They're really milking pokemon go. This is probably aimed at pogo players who weren't interested in the pokemon series before pokemon go came out. I'm kind of indifferent on Lets go pikachu/eevee because this wasn't what I was hoping for. I did mention that I was hoping for Pokemon Colosseum on steroids a few pages ago, but I was hoping for that with also a main series game. I'm going to buy a switch eventually for Breath of the Wild so I probably will eventually get Lets go pikachu/eevee
