The amount people who are sour about the game's success is astounding. So salty.
Anyway, this is insane. I mean, I think it's safe to assume that this is even somehow a BIGGER phenomenon than that of the original games. Too bad Nintendo didn't develop this themselves. They'd be on cloud 9 if they did and the servers probably wouldn't be so fried. Congrats to Niantic and Nintendo/Pokemon Company! Now get Gen 2 fired up! |
seriously, Pokemon Go is undoublty the best mobile game to date, so interactive and social that actually takes you off the screen
some people always see the negative side no matter what, and these pictures are trending, which is pathetic, I mean seriously!? what does Pokemon have to do with what's happening in Syria? and they say we are being controlled like zombies... wait, what!? it's a game goddammit, if you like it you play, if not, you don't, this is bullshit
  
I feel the same, Nintendo obviously didn't predict the game's success, sure they could get more involved, still, I believe they got the upper hand, I don't think Niantic is worth much without Pokemon, and they have in investment in Niantic anyway, hopefully they won't mess up, cause they can benefit much more since there are tons of Pokemon left and possibilities for expansion

Agreed! I mean, in regards to the bolded text for example. I don't like Grand Theft Auto 5. But I can't sit there and downplay its success just because it's successful and fans of the series are sitting in their rooms playing it. I said congratulations to GTAV and what it has done for the gaming industry and it has given off a positive increase in the gaming industry.
But to get back on track, it's sad that people just can't accept others and their likes. I guess it's an American thing. And you're right, Niantic wouldn't be in the news if it weren't for Pokemon as an IP. They had another game just like Pokemon Go, Ingress, that hasn't reached anywhere near the success of Pokemon Go because of the IP. Which is why Nintendo should have done this themselves but I guess they didn't have the staff or know how I guess to accomplish such a title. And Niantic could just re-skin Ingress and have a winner.
