Pokémon Go

[Biggy G]

It's been out for a week here in Australia, as it's the school holidays as well, it's nuts the amount of people wandering around playing (of all ages).

I've been playing with my kids, they love it. They love gaming and this gets them out and about. They have visited many landmarks in the town that they would otherwise not have known about, it's educational and exercise.

There are even people on Gumtree offering to taxi people to hot spots.

Probably Ell trying to get discount from Uber.

I remember my son collecting Pokemon cards when he was little, but I literally have no idea what this Pokemon go thing is.

My daughter has it.
Said there's a gym up by Hendre Lake.
"Oh!" said my Mrs, "whereabouts? I haven't seen any buildings up there"

My son works in Asda, has already told a few customers "No, you can't go into the warehouse to catch Pokemons"

People looking for something that isn't there. 'Tis perhaps a metaphor for life....

It's only adults who actually played Pokemon (cards & GameBoy games) as kids, so it'll be mostly adults now who are nostalgic about it all.

I bought a Nintendo 64 last year for the same reason.

You'll probably buy an abacus for the same reason...

Coz you got defensive over my comment about grown people and you suggested that people playing the game are immature

Defensive? you said people shouldn't be judging, I said I will do what I want, if you don't want people to tell you they will do what they want then don't tell them what to do, it's quite simple, I didn't suggest they were immature, I'm all for being immature.
