New Pokemon Snap Announced, Heading To The Nintendo Switch
/ TMG
Remember the N64 game Pokemon Snap? Well, we are getting a new one called New Pokemon Snap for the Nintendo Switch.
The overall concept, just like the original, tasks players to take photos of Pokemon in their natural habitat.
Here’s how NIntendo describes it:
Travel to unknown islands with beautiful scenery like lush jungles and sandy beaches. The Pokémon pictures you take there will be used to build your very own Pokémon Photodex! This brand-new game brings the gameplay of the 1999 Pokémon Snap game for the Nintendo 64 system to life on the Nintendo Switch system with unknown islands to discover and different Pokémon to see!
Photograph lively wild Pokémon in their natural habitats as you research and explore unknown islands. Journey through a variety of environments such as beaches and jungles to capture previously-unseen Pokémon behaviors. The photos you take can also be used to fill out your very own Pokémon Photodex!
After more than 20 years, Pokemon Snap is finally back! Coming to Nintendo Switch. Trailer from GameSpot Trailers.
Bandai Namco is in charge of development and so far that’s all the details given by The Pokemon Company during their Pokemon Presents video presentation that aired on June 17.
No release date was given at this time.
So far, I’ve been loving my new console. It truly feels like a generational leap from the original Switch, even if its core concept remains the same. This may be simply an iterative, straightforward improvement over the original system, but I guess the thinking is that as the saying goes, “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”
