This AR game is going to drain the shit out of the smartphones lol and then there's this:

Quote:
A small device called a Pokémon GO Plus will enable Pokémon GO players to enjoy the game even when they’re not looking at their smartphone. The device connects to the smartphone via Bluetooth and notifies the player about events in the game—such as the appearance of a Pokémon nearby—using an LED and vibration. In addition, players can catch Pokémon or perform other simple actions by pressing the button on the device
I wonder how many battery packs the hardcore pokemon fans would have to carry.

I'd be more surprised on how much people will spend on the obvious micro-transactions.

5 Great Balls for a low price of $2.99!

Spoiler!

Wait, so you have to travel to a destination in order to catch a pokemon?

I can see the hype for pokemon fans but if that's the case, it'll die down really fast.

This is based off of a game called Ingress that Niantic Labs and Google partnered up to make. They used the Ingress data and how people play that game to make this one. There are no Paid items in ingress. None at all. You have to go out and find them at different locations and are completely random. I assume this will be the same for the most part. Ingress is Green vs Blue (Enlightened vs. Resistance) but I think Pokemon Go will be more individual play against others with mass events for Bosses. I am Enlightened in Ingress and the amount of team work is awesome. There is no way to Hack the game for items but there are ways to "cheat" as have been found with Ingress.

Berz out.
