It’s Here! 'Pokemon GO' Is Finally Available: Here’s How To Become The Greatest Trainer
We’ve been waiting, for what seems like forever our chance to catch our favorite Pokemon in ‘real’ life. Now, thanks to Niantic Labs and Nintendo, we finally have our chance to be an actual Pokemon trainer – and it’s AMAZING! News hit yesterday stating that Pokemon Go was available in Japan, Australia and New Zealand. For the rest of us in other areas of the world we waited patiently, and then it happened (at least for the US) at 9PM Eastern Standard Time, and we could officially download the game from both Google Play for Android devices and the App Store for iOS devices.

The gaming world is a dog-eat-dog arena where only the strong survive. That might seem a little harsh, considering the fact that for the most part we have several viable consoles on the market right now and that doesn't look to change any time soon.

Now, if you got stuck at the first statement that console gaming on a television screen has been around for nearly 50 years, then I'm betting you're either are a new gamer, or you're probably under the age of 20 and haven't had much exposure to some of the truly historical consoles.
