>Since Nintendo released Pokémon Go late last week, the augmented reality video game is already on track to be one of the fastest growing phenomenons in the gaming world. More people used the app in a day than Tinder.
>With a 7% install base among Android's 1.4 billion active devices and a 10% install base among 400 million Apple devices, there are currently 138 million players making it the most popular game of all time. It hasn't even been released in Europe, South America, Canada, and many other nations.
>However, there are concerns are around safety. Friday evening, a teenager was assaulted while playing the game around Temple Square. But players John "Woah-OMGsame" Altizer said the rewards outweigh the risk. "There's no reason to fear Pokémon Go any more than you'd fear going to the 7-Eleven."
>There have also been increased reports of suspicious activity and trespassing, police in the Salt Lake Valley said. Lt. Jeff Conger with West Valley City Police said the department has had more than a hundred encounters with "suspicious people" gathering in unusual locations to play the game.
Who will dethrone Pokemon Go as the world's most popular game?

No, it only shows incompetence on Nintendo's part.

For someone who spends their time on an anonymous video game board, you know surprisingly little about video games.
I just wish the fuckers stopped playing it while driving.
>>344735652
Well. I guess that's if for Nintendo then.

Like World of Warcraft, Pokemon GO will dethrone itself.

>>344736665
Nope, might hype it up even more in other places knowing that so many people are playing it in places that do have access to it. You won't stop Pokemon on smartphones.
