Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu!/Eevee! will NOT support the Pro Controller

Unfortunately, those who use this controller or prefer the other mainline Pokemon games will have to stick with a Joy-Con or the Pokeball Controller. It's a shame, adding a button press option or making use of the Pro Controller's Gyro would solve this problem.

Buying a $70 controller only for it not to work with every game is beyond tacky

Sgt_Slaughter2748d ago

It's even worse when you find out that in Portable Mode, motion controls are not needed, so this make zero sense.

It's so everybody... Ps4's touchpad and speaker in the controller are a complete waste of space, production and money IMO. (not a fanboy) but the xbox crew is the only gimmick-less platform out there.

It's nothing like Sony. Nintendo sell a "pro" controller, that is the only real "proper" controller type, and its barley supported and not even supported half of their first party releases. There's no reason Lets Go! couldn't be compatible when you can play it on the switch portable....

Sony's controller has some gimmicks sure, but it works with all their games.

The touch pad is used in every game, whether as a button or a trackpad. It's used. Second the speaker is used only when it makes sense. Like radio calls etc. Which makes sense. Not suppose to be all audio. Next it's nowhere near the same situation and the PS4 control isn't a gimmick. It's a control with more options that will work for any situation. It works with VR, it works with every other ps game as well. The pro control doesn't. Also costs more than a ps4 control. That's the issue. Xbox control is the bare minimum which is fine for what they do. But when I play games like Gravity rush 2 and the touch pad is used to switch forms and use special attacks etc. It makes it alot easier while saving buttons. They also put certain things to the speaker as well. Even the motion is used in that game. But does it need to be used in every game. Nope, because the control is made to be used universally on ps4. Even mapping on my PC I can adjust certain things to the extra prompts etc.

Okay this is bad, I love my pro controller.

I'm probably going to buy this game but Im just praying that the (confirmed) Pokémon game thats coming next year is the tradiitional Pokémon game that we all know and love just with better graphics.
Pokémon go looks really stripped back in comparison to the traditional handheld games.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing12d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit12d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing12d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9212d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
