Nintendo has released a lengthy Q&A article discussing its decision to re-launch Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen separately — rather than as part of the Nintendo Switch Online service.
As much as I think nintendo and the pokemon company are evil shits, I do believe overall pokemon go was net positive for humanity.
The physical health benefit from all those people walking around, and the mental health benefits from said populations being more social and friendly with others won’t ever show a statistic for lives saved, but I think it’s reasonable to assume lives will be saved from extra exercise and positive social interactions.

I do agree, but it’s too bad they ran both that game and the goodwill generated by it into the ground.
