Pokémon Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl have been met with resounding success, achieving the status of the biggest Switch game launches of this year.
Pokémon Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl
Amazingly, Brilliant Diamond is the best-selling Switch game this year, trailed only by Shining Pearl.
Diamond & Pearl are the second biggest boxed game launch this year, beaten out only by FIFA 22, which is no surprise considering FIFA is a colossal franchise.
Pokémon has even outsold Call of Duty: Vanguard, which is an impressive feat considering Call of Duty is a blockbuster franchise.
Perhaps these versions of Pokémon are selling so well due to the intense nostalgia with them being remakes of games that many people consider childhood classics.
