Pokemon Rumble World Is Now Available Via Retail

Do you like Pokemon? Then, you may like the newest game, Pokemon Rumble World, for 3DS. It just came out for retail; it was previously digital-only!

Pokemon Rumble World came out in stores today. The game was previously only available on the 3DS eshop as a free-to-play game. Rumble World isn’t your average Pokemon game. In this one, you control Toy Pokemon and take them into dungeons. You’ll find even more toy pokemon along the way and recruit them to help you out.

I played the free-to-play Pokemon Rumble World and thought it was fun for a brief time. My mom, however, likes the game a lot and still plays it all the time. The retail version is supposed to be the same as the digital verison. I’m not sure how the game is worth $39.99. Perhaps hardcore Pokemon fans and collectors will want to buy the title. I also wonder if the free-to-play verison will still be available on the eshop or not. Don’t get me wrong: Rumble World was a fun game for a time, but I can’t imagine paying full price for something that use to be (mostly) free.

What do you all think? Is Pokemon Rumble World worth picking up from stores? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
