Both Nintendo and Pokémon are incredibly smart for releasing something like this. Like it or not, cell phones are the future of portable gaming. You can try to ignore that fact all you want, but it's not going anywhere. Handheld gaming consoles like the 3DS will still be around, but look at it from Nintendo's point of view: How many people in the world have a Nintendo 3DS? Okay, now how many people have cell phones? My point is made.
Pokémon GO gives Nintendo another platform to release Pokémon games. If I read correctly, Junichi Masuda hinted that this app will be compatible with the main series Pokémon games. Who would seriously have a problem with that!? Think about it, you can catch a Pokémon while out and about in the real world, and then transfer it to your game. Nintendo has always been about creating innovative ideas so this should come as no surprise to anyone.
