Pokémon GO and the Future of Gaming

Humans have an innate desire to be social, but our social capital has declined over the years as we started plugging into entertainment technologies like TV. John Hanke, CEO of Niantic Inc. and creator of Pokémon GO, is coming up with new forms of entertainment that are helping us return to our natural, social states. His creations will be social and they will get us moving-all the things that we as humans naturally want to do. Physical movement activates our brains and affects our emotional states. Hanke outlines some of his key learnings for designing interactive, story-driven, location-based stories that are integrated into everyday life.

I know u probably won’t read this but I have an idea for gen 8 it is called Pokémon fusions and if u do use this since I came up with the idea I think u should make magicarp and arceus arceuacarp it’s bio should read
Arceuacarp
What have u done a single splash from arceuacarp is enough to destroy entire worlds

Awesome concept

[@GARY84ROCKS]

Yeah...um... Dungeons & Dragons figured this out 40 years ago.

[@alexminchaca7392]

The concept is nice, but the world is not safe outside, people have accidents and even being killed using Pokémon go, also what about the people who can’t walk? Who can’t stand? Who are minors and want to be part of this community? Yes there are other games but Pokémon go it’s a nice game and it has to be safe, safe and fun. Make it fun for the people who can’t walk who can’t travel and see the world, make it safe for those users who live in danger cities. That what should be part of the main concept, make everyone part of this community, even if they need to pay a subscription for them to interactive with the work of Pokémon.

Make a dinosaur Pokémon please

[@sherwin.]

There are 2 in gen 5. So by 2020 you'll get it in the game!
Also, niantic doesn't create Pokemon. It's the Pokemon company.
