It’s already 2019 in some places of the world, and gaming companies, developers, and more are celebrating the occasion. We’ve rounded up some of the New Year’s greetings below.


Pokemon made its proper debut on Switch last month with the two Let’s Go games. Traditionally a handheld-focused series, the franchise finally had a mainline entry on a console.

Pokemon president Tsunekazu Ishihara spoke about this in an interview with Dime. He pointed out that Switch has a few different playstyles, causing it “harder to make a new mainline Pokemon game than I had originally thought.”

The Sonic Adventure series is revered by fans, but SEGA has doesn’t much with it in recent years. Perhaps the first step in bringing it back would be a remake.

Speaking with Retro Gamer, Sonic Team head Takashi Iizuka said he believes the first Sonic Adventure “is a unique game offering even 20 years after its release.” At the same time though, he “can see the rough edges it has, which really makes me want to remake it again.”

The Pokemon Company just released the first trailer for Pokemon the Movie: Mewtwo Strikes Back Evolution. Watch it below.
