Pokémon is always a very popular franchise, and when you combine it with the also popular Nintendo Switch it makes sense that it'd be a success, as has just happened with the two releases of Pokémon Let's Go Pikachu and Eevee, updating the classic Pokémon Yellow adventure for modern audiences with new mechanics.

Well, The Pokémon Company has revealed on Twitter that these games actually have the highest first-week sales numbers for games (as reported by Gematsu), hitting the three million sales mark in the short window.

It's safe to say then that this has gone above and beyond expectations, especially considering the likes of Mario and Zelda that have launched on the Switch.

If you have yet to play the game be sure to check out our video review and livestream replay below, which shows what you can expect from the new mechanics.

REVIEW. Written by Kieran Harris

"It may struggle to strike the perfect middle ground when appealing to casual and veteran players but it still represents the series at its most accessible and interactive."
