I just downloaded it but I'm too lazy to get out of bed so I can't catch anything lol.

It won't be for everyone, but I can see people getting some enjoyment out of this game. :)

Perfect timing too! Since it released near the start of the 2 week school holidays!

Like with New 3ds xl, Nintendo releases pokemon go first in Japan plus Oceania (Australia, New Zealand e.t.c)
. Nintendo favors Australia, New Zealand once again  :( :P:P:P:P:P!

Lets hope not any accident happens, in the endeavor of catching a Pikachu on the road! haha!

As soon as it's available for an iphone I plan to check it out! :)

I live in Australia too. Odd that I'm only hearing about this game on vgchartz. I just had a look and it's at the top of the free itunes games.

Initial reception is really good. Time for others countries to enjoy. But at the end it needs to build up on the momentum.

Whoo! I love the game XD it may not be the most... hardcore game. But for people who love taking walks, this is godsent. So far I have Charmander, Rattata, Pidgey, Weedle, Caterpie, Gastly, Drowzee, Eevee, Spearow, Poliwag, Slowpoke, Goldeen, and Staryu! :3

I was seeing a ton of people playing it on the trail I took

I worry for people wandering around staring at their phones.
