New Pokemon Snap - Nintendo Switch

This game is A MUST PLAY!! I''e already put six hours in and have mostly just been playing the first island over and over again because I'm having such a blast finding out all the special interactions.It's like the original but HYPED UP! So many unique and charming interactions, the star system for classifying types of behaviours in the photos is genius. Seriously, if you liked the original, you will love this! If you've never played the original and you're not sure if you'll like this - if you're a fan of looking at creatures in their natural habitat or interacting in a natural way, you'll get something out of this game! I've laughed a few times too because some of the interactions I've seen so far are so silly and fun.In my opinion, the incentives of discovering new secret interactions or new pathways to take will keep me coming back until I've sifted through every last bit of content this game has to offer!It's gorgeous and a must have for any Pokemon fan who's been let down by Gamefreak's treatment of Pokemon as a franchise and was hungry for some more Pokemon-centric content with an emphasis on Pokemon behaviour and daily life. It's everything I ever wanted in a Snap sequel, a real dream come true!!Edit | The game has had time to settle in, and with now more than 50 hours clocked, I can assure you that this is one of the most enjoyable Pokemon experiences of my life. The level design is very nicely done, making you need to think to get certain rare Pokemon interactions to fill out your photodex. Every time a new Pokemon shows up, or I get a crazy interaction I didn't expect, I'm overjoyed and feel like a kid again. The amount of discovery in this game is thrilling. Seeing Pokemon interact in their natural environment, especially interactions caused by your interaction are just a pleasure through and through. If you can get into the gameplay, which I sincerely hope you can, the game is just incredible. I do have some minor gripes about the gameplay when it comes to interacting with Illumina Pokemon, as I find their gameplay much less engaging than the puzzle-game styled gameplay of the majority of the time, but the pictures you can snap are still worth it since the Illumina Pokemon are all so majestic. The photo editing is really fun, and the online compenents are satisfying and, in my opinion, make uploading your best photos worth it! I really enjoy custom tailoring my profile to have a mix of artistic photos as well as comical ones. I hope you will play this game!!!!

This game is incredibly enjoyable and provides a relaxing experience for players of all ages! The objective is to capture photos of Pokemon, and as you advance in the game, you can unlock additional areas. I like the grading system that appears at the conclusion of each tour! My family and I take turns to see who can snap the best pictures, which makes it a lot of fun and adds a competitive edge. The game arrived sealed and in new condition, though there were a few minor creases in the binding from a physical media collectors POV. I highly recommend it though!

As someone who has completed the main story and found all the pokémon, I highly recommend this game. It definitely exceeded my expectations. Some highlights:- It’s a game for both people who played the N64 version like me and for new players. It has nostalgic references from the original, but you don’t need to know anything about the original to play this new game.- It’s a game for casual players and for people who like challenges. For example, you can progress through the main story and enjoy casually taking photos, but you can also take on some more challenging puzzles/interactions to unlock additional route pathways and get hidden pokémon (including legendaries).- It has a lot of content. Even after completing the main story and seeing the credits, new routes and endgame pokémon become available. Over the course of the game you unlock several islands with day and night versions of routes. And each of these routes has different levels where different things happen based on how you interact with the environment/pokémon and what pathways you choose. Plus there are side quests to complete and 1, 2, 3, and 4-star pictures for each pokémon based on interactions you can trigger (and each of those has different colors of stars showing photo quality that you can improve).- It has a lot of pokémon. They are all well designed with a lot of expressions and activities. It has a very safari and natural habitat feel.Overall, this was a very well done game.

I have a Nintendo 64 and one of my favorite games to play on it was Pokemon Snap. It is my favorite game console by far but it just doesn't look good on the newer TV screens no matter what I do. Since I'm not a huge gamer, I decided to buy myself a Switch, knowing a new version would be coming out soon. Right after getting the console, I bought this game. I wanted a physical copy instead of digital so I never have to worry about not having access.This version is just as fun as the previous 64 game, but comes with more features and tasks. It's simple, easy to play and can be enjoyed by any age group. It worked flawlessly on my Switch and gives instructions so you know what to do along the way. Something some other games can lack. It's nice to kick back, relax and just take some pics of Pokémon's in the wild.

This is a fun little gamer to just pop in and play for short periods of time and still feel like you accomplished something as opposed to the time demands of many other games like an RPB.
