In a way, Pokémon GO is the ultimate realization of Satoshi Tajiri’s vision for Pokémon. He wanted children to be able to experience the things he did as a child, to go explore and find creatures they had never seen before.
Pokémon GO brings this concept to life. You will literally be able to go out into the world and find Pokémon to catch, battle, and trade by going to unexpected places and walking off the beaten path. Honestly, the idea sounds pretty fun, and I look forward to trying to catch all my favorites in the game.
Granted, there are some issues that need to be addressed (compatibility with the main series RPGs is fairly simple to introduce via Pokémon Bank, they really need to make sure that the game is global in scope because there are some places where Pokémon is known-but-not-popular that could get overlooked, and if the game only contains the first 151 Pokémon, I will not be getting it as the lion’s share of my favorites are beyond the Kanto Region), but I’m sure most of them can be handled easily during development.
All in all, I’m looking forward to it.
