## Description

Pokemon Pokopia is already showing signs of a disastrous launch based on early pre-order data, particularly on Amazon. Over the past month, the game is reportedly sitting at roughly 900 total pre-orders, a shockingly low figure for a Pokémon title of any kind. For comparison, the re-release of  Animal Crossing New Horizons on Switch 2 is outperforming Pokemon Pokopia in monthly pre-order sales rankings. This kind of weak Amazon pre-order performance strongly suggests low consumer interest, poor hype momentum, and a failure of Nintendo and The Pokemon Company’s marketing strategy ahead of release.

A major reason behind these weak pre-order numbers is growing fatigue and distrust within the Pokemon fanbase itself. After years of controversial and poorly received releases, many players feel burned by what they see as declining quality standards. The backlash surrounding Pokemon Legends ZA and its Mega Dimensions DLC amplified this frustration, with fans criticizing performance issues, pricing decisions, and content that felt unfinished or aggressively monetized. As a result, Pokemon Pokopia is launching into an environment where longtime fans are hesitant to pre-order at all, preferring to wait for reviews... or skipping the game entirely.

These problems are compounded by a much smaller hardware audience, making Pokemon Pokopia’s launch outlook even worse. Unlike past Pokemon releases that benefited from the massive install base of the original Nintendo Switch, Pokemon Pokopia is tied closely to the Nintendo Switch 2, which currently has far fewer users. A smaller install base combined with weak pre-order momentum raises the real possibility that this could become the worst-selling Pokemon launch in franchise history. #Nintendo #Switch2 #Pokemon
