Like Labo, the only thing this "casual" product will do is sell to die-hard Nintendo enthusiasts. It's easy money for Nintendo of course, especially with that Pokeball accessory. |
That's quite a bit of hyperbole there. While it has an optional connection to Pokemon Go it clearly is nothing like the actual mobile app. It's still a full complete overworld and story like any other Pokemon game, not to mention they already announced the 2019 game so people will buy now for this to hold them over.
I think your definitely underestimating the potential of all the Pokemon news that was announced today can have on the Switch.
