G+_Marlon Thompson Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Pokemon Go is going to be huge Jason Howell I know that you and Ron Richards are going to make fun about Flo when she talks about this but she is right this is going huge. See my thoughts below. Say what you want about not using your phone to play games Pokemon Go is going to be a huge hit whether you like it or not. here are 4 reasons why. 1. Its Pokemon. Pokemon has huge brand awareness and that alone is going to generate dozens of articles and news stories and as such free marketing for the app, coupled with the fact that they are already doing anniversary events, this app will be on everyone's lips. 2 Its using the data from Ingress Niantic labs are the devs behind this and they have worldwide location data, That means that this game will potentially be launching worldwide day one, if not its a massive missed opportunity. Because of ingress Niantic already know where are the heavy foot traffic areas which brings me to my 3rd point 3 its Social . Playing ingress I met a variety of people who I could see going out and about with their kids playing this game, holding special events and getting active. This social aspect will push even more adoption of the game and increase the enjoyment. 4. Gotta catch them all from what I have seen of the preview it looks as if they are keeping some of the best aspects of pokemon one of which is our inherent desire to collect to organise. If they include a web component and trading features, even better.

G+_Joseph Cappellino Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Ingress was great, but because I started so early, it fizzled out with nothing left for me to do. This should keep people interested a lot longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
