- snaky 10y agoPokemon Go is enough for the vast majority of users, who are potential mobile Nintendo console buyers. Margin is crucial between "I've got Pokemon game" and "I have no Pokemon game". "You've got Pokemon game on your phone, but they say there's a some other Pokemon game which maybe have some others features, but that would cost you $300" is not an unique selling proposition.
