[Sword & Shield] Choices if I should get both double pack and the rerelease of the Pokémon Sword and Shield games.

[Ultra Guardian DJ James]

Guys since I got Pokémon Sword from Sam's Club months ago, do you guys think I should get the double pack of Pokémon Sword and Shield games and own duplicate of the game I already have? Also should I get the new latest of them too?

 

[Nah]

There's not any point in having 2 copies of Sword, so you can cross the double pack off the list. That then leaves you with deciding if you want to get Shield or not. I've personally not bothered with getting both versions of a Pokemon game for a long time because of the minimal differences between the two versions, but some people are into that, or have other reasons for getting both. You just need to figure out if it's worth it to you to spend money on the other version.

I just figured to just get Pokémon Shield to complete my collection...

I personally wouldn't since they're both almost the same game, but if you're a collector and can afford it then that's up to you! Not a collector personally so in my case it makes sense not to get another version. Plenty of people collect and find the purchases worthwhile, nothing wrong with that.

I personally bought both Sword and Shield but separately due to getting them bundled with season passes. I always buy both versions no matter the difference between them. Collector reasons...
