It’s amazing how the silliest things manage to catch on and take the world by storm. Nintendo’s mobile gaming sensation ‘Pok\u00e9mon Go’ inspires such a level of obsession that it’s already been linked to several car crashes, accidents and even a couple of deaths<\/a>. (Yikes!) Are you in the Pok\u00e9 club?
\n<\/p>\n

I’m a bit old for ‘Pok\u00e9mon’. The original Game Boy titles came out just as I was leaving college. I was aware of the trading cards and cartoons and other media expansions from children in my life, but never gave them much thought. Although I understand that the franchise has adult fans, that ship sailed right past me. <\/p>\n

As far as ‘Pok\u00e9mon Go’, augmented reality games have never particularly interested me. I value my smartphone’s battery life and data consumption too much to waste on that. If this were a property that meant more to me, I might check it out. This fad, however, I’m comfortable letting pass me by.<\/p>\n
