Shibuya crossing. Didn't see a single person using it yet. The confetti Pokestop is Shibuya 109.

Will probably be packed tonight, so I'll check it out again later.
 
The game downloaded successfully on my Sony Xperia but won't let me enter my date of birth. The screen is just.....there. The music plays though I can't open the pull down menu to select the month, day, and year.

Help?
 
There's at least 30 pokestops in my vicinity. I just walked up and down the street. There's also 3 or 4 I can get from my house.

Red team owns everything around here.
 
The servers aren't crashing hard? I'm pretty surpriced.

EitherJapan isn't downloading like crazy right now or may be Niantic really invested in a fuckton of servers
 
Good !

Now give it to South America.

I would love to see the kind of shit that will happen here because of it.

I bet some judge will try to block it in the country and the people will rage on the streets and we will get a new election or somethoing

I think they upgraded their servers (or something) yesterday during the downtime. Been having a lot less issues since.
 
Glad to see the amount of live streams of it picking up steam on Nico since outside streams are more frequent than on Twitch.
 
I hope gaf doesn't dissapoint, for these launch days I would love to hear news from crazy things on Japan with this app.

I know Kotaku exist, but I love the gaf threads.
