[Let’s Talk] Pokemon Sword/Shield impressions

The first all-new generation of Pokemon games for Switch have arrived. Last week, Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield launched as Nintendo’s big holiday releases. We imagine that many of you picked up the games and have already started playing.

Although Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield haven’t been out for too long, we want to hear about your impressions thus far. Which starter did you go with? Have you found any new Pokemon that you’re liking? What are your overall thoughts based on what you’ve played? Let us know in the comments below.

Highlights from last week’s topic: Nintendo at The Game Awards 2019 – hopes and dreams

Locky Mavo

I’ve always got hopes for something Metroid, Bayonetta or F-Zero at any given opportunity, but I’d be happy with something similar to last year, with an exclusive, multiplat/port and a Smash character.
As for the awards themselves, I hope Astral Chain and Fire Emblem: 3 Houses win something.

I almost gurantee we will see BOTW2 there

Auragar

I am expecting the final Smash character for the current Fighter’s Pass, beyond that from Nintendo? I dunno. I wouldn’t expect Metroid though, nor Zelda. Aside from Nintendo if I am allowed this I think Atlus will have a good showing for us Western fans.
