HoloLens + Pokémon Go = Pokémon IRL
Oh wait Microsoft and Nintendo hate each other's guts.

Nintendo can always use some other form of VR technology if they wanted to, you know...
But after the Virtual Boy fiasco...
>>24775787
Except, nintendo has nothing to do with Go. Gear VR is likely but as far as I'm aware There's no footage of Go so we dont even know what ot will look like.
>>24775801
Reggie specifically said early this year that VR with Nintendo isn't happening anytime soon because VR right now isn't fun or social.

>Except, nintendo has nothing to do with Go.
Yes they do?
>>24775858
>isn't fun
Well it won't be if no one makes it fun.
>>24775858
Neither were mobile ARG games until Niantic made one.
>hololens is released
>bandai makes a digimon world game for it
Anyone excited for pokemon go?
>>24778150
I'm focking excited m8
>>24778150
its not gonna be like what ever thinks it will. theyre thinking, oh hey a bidoof is over there around that corner i have to go catch it! nah its gonna be some boring minigames and shit. i feel sorry for the people hyped for it. I will try it when it comes out but everyones gonna be disapointed. go in with low expectations
>>24778368
>Several years in development
>tens of millions invested
>minigames only
that'd be an extremely risky move on their part

>>24775991
nintendo shouldn't risk another flop for relatively new/underdeveloped technology
Wasn't it confirmed that beta testers will get to try it out?How do you think they'll pick?
Is this a partnership with google? Someone told me it was because it uses google maps
>>24783035
google maps' april fools 2014 was a find-pokemon-on-map minigame integrated into the mobile app
might have been the inspiration/prototype for this concept, who knows?

>people who found all of the Pokémon on Google Maps and showed proof were sent personalized business cards
>business cards had the player's name and listed the job title "Pokémon Master"
>send in business card to receive beta tester status and become first Pokémon trainers
>mfw I have Pokémon Master business cards
>>24783167
I didnt get any business cards and I STILL think this would be a cool idea. Do it Nintendo.
>>24775787
Because MS is the only company who makes VR headsets, right?
>>24775787
>Oh wait Microsoft and Nintendo hate each other's guts.
Apparently not enough for Microsoft to disregard the idea of Banjo in Smash.
>>24783167
>people who googled the locations of all the pokemon get to be the beta testers
nice
>>24775787
They hate each other so much Microsoft just put Minecraft on the Wii U.
