Pokemon GO was released almost four years ago. Many didn’t think it had the staying power to remain as one of the top mobile games. It was a phenomenon. It has been revealed that Pokemon GO is the highest-selling mobile game of December 2020, according to Superdata’s research. It wasn’t just the highest-selling game in the United States; it was the highest-selling mobile game worldwide. This is not only very significant, but huge for Nintendo’s potential for mobile game possibilities. It shows Nintendo’s, and Pokemon’s, staying power. This is a powerful brand, but the fact that the game is still selling at such a rapid pace after almost four years after coming out is nothing short of phenomenal. I personally gave up on the game not long after coming out because my phone simply couldn’t handle it; it drained my battery too quickly and took up too much space. I may have to give it another go, because it is addicting. It’s a fantastic mobile game, so much better than most of the other “simple” games such as Candy Crush that are available. There’s a reason why people have latched on to it. For Pokemon GO to be the highest-selling mobile game of 2020 though, that is a huge feat. Nintendo once considered never to go into the mobile game market; they were sure wrong about that. With Pokemon GO being the highest-selling mobile game of December 2020, Nintendo is sure to continue their partnerships in the mobile game business.
