A special celebration every February 27 in honor of the launch of the first Pokémon games. (Some would say exactly three weeks after Mewtwo’s birthday.)
☆ NintendObs Weekly – Monday, February 25, 2019 – Sunday, March 3, 2019.
02.27.19
Pokémon fans across the world are commemorating the launch of the very first Pokémon™ games, released in Japan on this day back in 1996.
Today we’re also celebrating the reveal of the newest generation of Pokémon games, Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield, coming to the Nintendo Switch system in late 2019. Explore the new region and—of course—meet the new starter Pokémon. Watch the video now.
That’s not all—we’ve also got lots of other exciting Pokémon news to share too!
