  • Abstract:  Before I played Pokémon Let's Go Pikachu at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) this week in Los Angeles, I was worried this reimagining of the originals wouldn't be for me. Let's Go Pikachu and its counterpart, Let's Go Eevee, come out for the Switch...

  • Abstract:  After more than 20 years and six generations of adorable, collectible Japanese creatures, Pokemon has gone back to basics with Let's Go Pikachu and Let's Go Eevee, but that doesn't mean the juggernaut franchise of role-playing games is out of tricks. Par...

  • Abstract:  A beloved childhood film can easily be shared with the next generation, but the cherished video games of 1990s children can now look off-puttingly primitive, even if they're as fun to play as ever. Super Mario and Sonic the Hedgehog's early outings might...

  • HD large screen Pokemon battles that are accessible and engaging, Poke Ball Plus Controller with unique sounds and lights, Pokemon Go connectivity and transfer, Co-op play and battling
  • Trainer Battles too easy especially when playing co operatively or with appropriate counter Pokemon, Catching can start to become repetitive: be sure to use those repels
  • Pokemon: Let's Go is successfully combines a variety of different game mechanics into something engaging and modern – though not always particularly challenging.The Poke Ball Plus controller is an awesome edition to any trainer's battle chest and makes ca...

  • Abstract:  Pokemon Let's Go Eevee & Let's Go Pikachu is nothing like the most recent Pokemon games.It's more like what would have happened if Game Freak and Nintendo never went on to make Pokemon Gold/Silver on the GameBoy Colour and instead decided to reboot the fr...
