You would have the problem of people abandoning their daily routine in favor of staying in the magical Pokémon world.

Holy shit, how did I miss this announcement all day? The OG Pokemon Snap is one of my favorite games for the N64, shit felt magical like other Pokemon spinoffs never did. Love this. Looks legendary.

the Resident Evil series had a core design..they changed it many times over. one could argue a stronger core design ie. bigger risk because it was ingrained in multiple games before the formula was changed.
pokemon snaps core design is only established in one game. a game from 21 years ago.... meaning its much easier (and more probable) to change a "core design" after so much time has elapsed and only one game as a base foundation.
those two factors alone strengthen my original point that I expected them to move off a rail system.

Stuff was real, shooting the shit out of Mew on the moon? No Pokemon game has replicated that feeling.

Thats literally been my dream since I got Pokemon Blue on my 8th birthday. 20+ years later and wtf the best we get is sword/shield.
I have literally been dreaming about a pokemon game where you can run and jump off a huge cliff, throw charizard out the ball mid-air, land on him and swoop under a bridge. Game Freak have been raping my imagination for decades and they end up the winner.

I like that they reused the N64 textures as a nod to the original.

serious.
but of course everything is "gamified" , you are awarded more points depending of various parameters (how many pkmn, if they were interacting, special events, other than them being in focus) and you have also (or at least you had in the original, but you cna see traces of this in the trailer) way to interact with pkmn, to get a reaction, make them come closer, or initiate strange chains of events to unlock events like a legendary pkn popping out or a new course opening up.
it was surprisingly addicting but it's a game for a specific kind of gamer, since most of the drive from playing it comes from getting the biggest score and the best photos, and it's not an heavely story focused game like kid loves these days
looks great enough..the pkmn style doesn't really need raw power to be pleasant to look at, you just need color, shine and not see edges in the models, which at this point could be achieved on any system really

I don't get the backlash about the graphics either this game looks miles better than the mainline ones on the Switch.
Edit: may be something about the artstyle or animations that looks old school
