I mean it's a video game you CAN'T play at home. No way this lasts

Well the only redeeming quality about the game is that you have to leave your home to play. It's the interaction with the world and getting rewarded for it that's the draw.
The game itself is shallow as frick. It's not a pokemon game. It's an AR game with pokemon as the backdrop.
You level pokemon up by catching MORE pokemon of the same type... wtf? The candy system makes absolutely no sense in the context of pokemon, and you don't battle pokemon before you catch them.
It's like the developers had to come up with a way to addict people and get them playing for a long time and the first thing they wrote on the chalk board is what they went with.
So really the author of the article is saying nintendo should abandon their principles completely and go where the money is, which is the most gullible group of gamers in the history of the industry.
Don't get me wrong, I love nintendo and I'm happy they're able to have a mobile cash cow because I feel like they're a very genuine company with principals in an industry devoid of them and it helps them stay afloat, but the day they go mobile only is the day I say "well nice to have known ya".
