Thanks to emulators, Pokémon Let’s Go is already running on PC

My editor is not currently sitting in the office, and I’m yet to get adequate revenge on him for the time he referred to Pokémon fans as weebs. With all that in mind, I’m here to tell you that it’s already possible to play the latest iteration in the world’s most adorable franchise on PC. Pokémon Let’s Go released last week, with two versions available - one for Eevee, and one for Pikachu. Despite being out for less than seven days, the game is already running on a Nintendo Switch emulator for PC, meaning if you don’t fancy dropping a few hundred on Nintendo’s latest console, you do have another option. That said, it’s not going to be the smoothest ride. In the video from YouTuber Unreal below (via Kotaku), you can see the game running on the Yuzu emulator, but it’s not perfect, by any means. The music and most of the sound effects suffer from some significant distortion, and none of the text has loaded in properly. It’s also being run on a properly powerful rig, so you’re not necessarily saving yourself much money if this is the way you choose to invest.
