Forums - Nintendo - Pokemon Go is a hit

This game has just been released in Australia, New Zealand and Japan and all I've been seeing on my Facebook is everyone talking about it, seen people at my work walking around playing it, people on the bus playing it. I've never seen this for any of mobile game, i played it briefly but didn't like it, the casuals are loving it tho.

Casuals damn it! I didnt try it yet. Hopefully it does its job and expands the pokemon brand to the extra masses lol



Imagine if Pokemon reaches Red/Blue sized popularity again.

I just checked the Google Play store and there is a Pokemon Go by Niantic, is that the one?

I'm enjoying it so far. I've already caught a bulbasaur, pidgey, weedle, caterpie, mankey, nidoran f, and ratatta and found an egg.

Ah, the wild days of Pokemon. Too bad I missed them :P

 

To be fair though, it's still pretty popular. At least it didn't end  up like  other popular franchises( cough cough yugioh and digimon cough)
