Pokémon Let`s Go! Pikachu and Eevee: Hands-on impressions from E3 2018
(iMore iPhone)

Pokémon Let`s Go! Pikachu and Eevee break with tradition, but that`s part of their charm. Pokémon Let`s Go! Pikachu and Eevee for Nintendo Switch were shown off at E3 2018, surprising many with their unconventional mechanics. The Pokémon GO influence on these games has resulted in a unique capture system that has some fans raising eyebrows, and others clapping their hands. It`s definitely a different way to go (even though a more traditional game is on its way in 2019), so I had to check it out and see how it plays in practice. I went hands-on with Pokémon Let`s Go! Pikachu at E3 2018 and experienced firsthand the motion control capturing mechanics and other changes to the game. While I think the game will still be divisive for traditionalists, my short time with Pikachu and friends sold me on this being a great gateway for fans of Pokémon GO, as well as a fun adventure rehash of Pokémon Yellow for adults without as much time on their hands...
