During today's Pokémon Presents, the Pokémon Company announced the comeback of a beloved title: Pokémon Snap. Aptly titled New Pokémon Snap, Nintendo describes it as a "new adventure" that is "inspired by the classic Nintendo 64 game Pokémon Snap."

That’s right, Trainers—#PokemonSnapIsBack! #NewPokemonSnap is an all-new adventure inspired by the classic Nintendo 64 game.

While details are scant, Nintendo also shared this title's description:

Travel to unknown islands with beautiful scenery like lush jungles and sandy beaches. The Pokémon pictures you take there will be used to build your very own Pokémon Photodex! This brand-new game brings the gameplay of the 1999 Pokémon Snap game for the Nintendo 64 system to life on the Nintendo Switch system with unknown islands to discover and different Pokémon to see!

Photograph lively wild Pokémon in their natural habitats as you research and explore unknown islands. Journey through a variety of environments such as beaches and jungles to capture previously-unseen Pokémon behaviors. The photos you take can also be used to fill out your very own Pokémon Photodex!

New Pokémon Snap is under development by Bandai Namco for the Nintendo Switch but no release window has been shared.

[mightymuffy]

Well that was a fun Mini-Direct thingy... went into it expecting shite, and it started off with Smile, then Cafe Mix ....my God...
But then this!! Day one purchase! And another big announcement next week *two thumbs up*

 

[Neru]

YESSSSSS! Pokemon Snap brings back so many childhood memories

 

[linuxares]

This would’ve been an obvious choice for the Wii U, but better late than never! This is gonna be a day one buy for me for sure

I bet they were thinking about it but noticed how the Wii U was flop and postponed it for the Switch.

 

[Youkai]

Well the original Snap wasn't half as bad as I thought when it was announced still nothing I'd pay full price for ...

 

[Deleted member 412537]

oh, I can finally try out Pokemon Snap!
Yay.

 

[ken28]

Guess Bandai Namco has to show Gamefreak how to make Pokemon on the switch look good.
That and what fans want.

 

[Enryx25]

FUCK YES! I've been waiting for this for so long, please don't fuck it up Ninty.

Bandai Namco is the developer.

 

[Rail Fighter]

Yeah, now they need to release a thing called F-Zero.

 

[pedro702]

thank you gamefreak... i really love the first one, this is a day one buy for me for sure.

When do people learn to read.

Hopefully it isn’t crap. I just learned it is being produced by bandai namco. i’m surprised Nintendo and the rest of the pokemon company are allowing outsiders to touch their beloved ip

hardly the first time.
Pokken was developed by bandai too and Pokemon Conquest by Koei

 

[LightBeam]

I always thought it was a meme, as the original one wasn't THAT good, but I can see the fun you could get
Still looks way better than Sword & Shield, I'm genuinely more interested in this than in any game developed by Gamefreak

 

[pedro702]

thank bandai not game freak

it was a game ordered to bandai namco so yeah still have to thank gamefreak to ask for a game and pay them to do it lol.

bandai cant just make a pokemon game without gamefreak and nintendo ok, nintendo has been ordering alot of games with bandai, i wonder why they dont join forces more often, who knows if nintendo will buy them out in the future.

there was that switch one on early life pokemon quest? or whtever? it was a free game also not developed by nintendo or gamefreak.

pokemon colosseum and XD on the gamecube were also not developed by gamefreak and that is the reason they still have better graphics than pokemon sword and shield lol.

 

[playstays_shun]

Just picked up Ring Fit Adventure a few days ago, I feel like the accessory would go REALLY well with Pokemon Snap

Nintendo gave the Zelda IP to an indie team.
