Pokémon Sun & Moon (Nintendo 3DS)
12 of 15
Pokémon GO was the year's biggest gaming hit, and now Nintendo is following up the smartphone smash with the latest installment of the core series.
Pokémon Sun & Moon ($40) are set in a Hawaii-like land with all-new creatures — and even revamped versions of classic Pokémon like Rattata and Meowth. But the gameplay that's made this franchise a hit for 20 years now is still intact, tasking you with catching, training and battling your way to be the very best.
