Do you think anything's been ever as big, culturally, as PokemonGo is right now?

the only thing i can think of is gangnam style, everyone knew it 

 

 

Gangnam Style maybe

 

 

You guys are correct as far as Global recognition but businesses are actually taking advantage of Pokémon Go though..

 

There're actually people recommending you to walk dogs while playing Pokémon Go.. There are businesses all around the campus that are giving discounts for students that are using Pokémon and are capturing Pokémon since There are a couple of places that are actually  stops

Oppa gangnam style is bigger

No this is a whole different monster

there's small businesses telling ppl to go to their stores to play the game... 

 

gangnam style didn't have this type of impact

 

i did say culturally =D

My campuses full of pokey stops and students are selling stuff there are businesses selling stuff and giving discounts so this is so much bigger than that

The original Pokemon craze duh. That was even bigger - the games were HUGE, the TV show was huge, the merchandise was huge, like it took the world by storm

i dont think adults were that into it..

 

the kids from those days grew up and are playing so there's more ppl interested in pokemongo as of right now.

 

plus the world is a lot more global than it was then... with social media as an added plus

Dude were you living in a hole during the Pokémon craze? It was MUCH bigger. Like i said it took the world by storm, from games and shit to parents being pissed off by having to buy all that shit. Doesnt matter if adults were into it or not, they knew about it alrighy lol. And that was without all tge internet and sns and phone stuff we havr these days

I would say Pokemon but yeah now two generations are interested in Pokemon Go instead of 1

I used to have Pokémon everything.. But my mom refuse to buy a lot because she was like oh that's for boys  :derp:

Ofc its different but OP asked for something that had this much cultural popularity and I'm pointing out the original craze was bigger. Pokémon go wouldn't even exist if the original craze wasn't as big as it was
