Gamers have been speculating about what kind of mainstream Pokémon games would be coming to the Nintendo Switch since the console was announced. Over the past few weeks, rumors began to circulate online that Pikachu and Eevee would be the mascots of the next major games for the Nintendo Switch. Today, the rumors turned out to be true.

Did you get all that? We will be getting all-new Kanto remakes in full HD on the Nintendo Switch! Players will be able to play with just one joy-con controller or get help from a second player using the other joy-con! Tons of classic GEN1 Pokémon including Mewtwo, Bulbasaur, Pidgey and Clefairy will appear in the game.

Capturing Pokémon will use the joy-con’s motion control gestures but look similar to how they work in Pokémon Go. There will be a dedicated Pokeball Plus accessory players will be able to connect to their Nintendo Switch. Like a Wiimote, it’s filled with gyroscopes and motion detectors. You’ll be able to use them to assist in catching ’em all. Or you’ll be able to transfer a Pokémon to it from your game and take the Pokéball Plus on the go!

Finally, Pokémon Go players will be able to transfer Pokémon caught in Pokémon Go to the Nintendo Switch, and receive in-game presents from the Switch games!

Pokémon Let’s Go Pikachu and Pokémon Let’s Go Eevee are coming to the Nintendo Switch November 16th, 2018. The Pokeball Plus accessory will also be released on that day.

One of my favorite games for the Wii U was Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker. It was a new take on the Super Mario Bros universe, expanding the characters of Captain Toad and Toadette. The point of the game was to explore every environment and collect all the items…without an ability to jump.

Now the game is coming to the Nintendo Switch and the Nintendo 3DS. Here’s some official gameplay. If you never got a Wii U, you should check this out.

Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker is out now on the Nintendo Wii U. It is coming July 13th, 2018 to the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo 3DS.

Niantic has made an enormous announcement this week for Pokémon Go! When they were released, Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon offered exclusive variants of many Pokémon we all knew and loved. These Pokémon shared the same name and basic design of other recognizable Pokémon but they looked different, knew different moves and could be an entirely different type. They were called Alolan Pokémon after the Alolan region the Generation 7 games took place in.

Now, I’m happy to share these special Pokémon are coming to Pokémon Go! You can read all the details about the announcement here. Sadly there’s not much to go on, we don’t know what Pokémon will be available, what regions we can expect to find Alolan variants in, or when the update is coming.
