The folks at Game Central recently had an opportunity to interview Junichi Masuda and Shigeru Ohmori about Pokémon Sword and Shield. During the interview, the Game Freak developers were asked about a potential sequel to Pokémon Snap:
GC: If I could just end with two quick requests, one of which I think you get a lot and one of which I’m sure you don’t. Firstly, I can’t believe it’s 2019 and there still isn’t a Pokémon Snap 2.
Both: [laughs]
GC: You had the Wii U GamePad and now you’ve got Nintendo Labo VR, which has an actual physical camera, why is there not a Pokémon Snap 2?! I’ll pre-order it right now if you agree to make it!
Both: [laughs]
JM: [laughs] All I can say is that I don’t think we can just make the same thing again. So we’d have to come up with a very unique twist on this if we do make another one.
