New Pokémon Snap review roundup — Here's what others are saying about the game
We are mere days away from New Pokémon Snap's release on April 30, and after 22 years, I can't contain my excitement. It might end up being one of the best games on the Nintendo Switch! The original Pokémon Snap debuted on the Nintendo 64, and the Switch is about to carry the series into this generation. If you are a fan of relaxing games like Animal Crossing: New Horizons and Pokémon, this low-key photography sim should be right up your alley!
Of course, it's been quite a stretch since the original game was released, so there are high expectations, and we'll be reviewing this game within the week as well. As several reviews have popped up already, and we are frothing at the mouth for some info, here are what reviewers are saying about New Pokémon Snap.
