Comment: Pokémon Go — I just don’t get it (but everyone else does)

<div class="feat-image"></div>
<p>Take a quick look at the landscape of the Internet since last week and it’s quite apparent that <a href="https://geo.itunes.apple.com/nz/app/pokemon-go/id1094591345?mt=8&amp;at=10laZc&amp;ct=925" target="_blank">Pokémon Go[/url] has taken over the planet. Nintendo’s market cap jumped $9 billion since last Wednesday, at least five of the top Techmeme stories <a href="http://www.techmeme.com/160711/h1610" target="_blank">right now[/url] are about Pokémon, and my mother-in-law (!) knows where to find all the Pokéstops and gyms around town. Seriously.</p>
<p>The phenomenon is really impressive, but I really don’t understand it. If I were reviewing Pokémon Go in a bubble and hadn’t seen the Internet’s reaction to the game, I’d have written that Niantic/The Pokémon Company should probably scrap the whole game and start over. But people really love Pokémon Go…</p>
