I still can't get over how goddamn popular this game is. When playing the beta, I knew it would be pretty big, but not this huge.
I was at Safeway at 11pm, and people were still playing it while walking around, a big black dude with a smaller white friend told his friend "man everyone is playing this Pokemon game", so I looked up from playing and nodded with a smile, he looked and said "you too? no way man", and he and his friend raised their phones to show me they were also playing
We got our shit and exited the store, and there was an asian guy walking around the big parking lot and I'm willing to bet he was also playing
Those 3 people plus the other 20 something I saw today while out shopping, I really should have bought some Nintendo stock before they released the game.
