Pokémon Let's Go, Pikachu! and Pokémon Let's Go, Eevee! have been getting a lot of attention lately. The games were released on the 16th of November to some overwhelmingly positive reviews by both critics and fans alike.
We even found that last week the game had managed to sell over
3 million copies within its first week since launch; becoming the best-selling title on the Nintendo Switch as a whole. While it is true that Pokémon titles are usually console sellers, this game's initial lukewarm reception lead a lot of people to believe that this wouldn't be the case.
Not only did
Pokémon Let's Go, Pikachu! and
Pokémon Let's Go, Eevee! managed to become the best-selling title on the Nintendo Switch, but a new report has also revealed that it became one of the hot-selling products during this past Black Friday.
The news comes from Nintendo Life, that reports that the information comes from Adobe Analytics, who have shared a toold that allows users to check trends in past recent days, and they have found out that the latest Pokémon title was the fourth best-selling product during this year's Black Friday. The game has even roughly surpassed Santa Monica's God of War in the sales race; only losing out to L.O.L Surprise dolls and Fingerlings toys. Nintendo Life also found out that the Nintendo Switch became the fourth best-selling item on Small Business Saturday, which is the day after Black Friday.
Pokémon Let's Go, Pikachu! and
Pokémon Let's Go, Eeve! this are definitely helping Nintendo reach that goal they set for themselves about selling 20 million Nintendo Switch consoles this year and, at this point,
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate releasing next week will only help even more; as this too is considered to be a console-selling title.
