You can't even watch the evening news anymore without someone mentioning the newest Pokemon game for iOS & Android: Pokemon Go. Now, it is quite clear that there is obvious potential to profit quite heavily from this temporary fad.

I know. The market is already cluttered, and the game officially launched only a few weeks ago. Since there aren't many ways to make this brand of merchandise unique, I guess advertising will have to be key.

The best way to profit off it, in my opinion, is to look for the next one. This is just the start, and there is plenty of room for innovation. You are a fool if you don't think that every other video game/app company in the world has seen what happened here and moved into AR development.
AR, not VR, is where the money is.
