welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top ten
franchises that should get the Pokemon
go treatment it’s incredibly cool down
minecraft on your table imagine seeing
your own worlds like this
for this list we’ll be looking at
videogames films and other forms of
media that would translate well into a
Pokemon go style format this can mean by
the use of a our display making use of
real-world locations an excuse to go for
walks or some combination of all of the
above
number 10 Where’s Waldo
aka Where’s Wally whoa where’s Johnny
how many times in our childhood did we
pick up these colorful puzzle books only
to spend an unhealthy amount of time
seeking out an inducing red-and-white
[Music]
taking Martin Hanford’s rather timeless
creation into the digital age players
could try searching for Waldo in their
own towns or across all terrain he’s
around here somewhere
good luck Chloe watches this would
definitely be aimed at a younger
audience but could prove to be quite a
challenge should you try hunting him
down in a heavily populated area it’s a
good thing I always bring an extra set
of clothes
[Music]
number nine pac-man the poster boy for
retro gaming has gone through many
phases and incarnations over the years
but given his original style of gameplay
leaping on the Pokemon go bandwagon is a
logical step if you think about it
players could take the form of the
titular yellow sphere and gather coins
on a burying scale whether it’s
contained within one room or expanded to
a citywide scale on the other hand it
also opens up the possibility to play as
one of the four ghosts pursuing and
consequently fleeing from a pacman
though should that be an option make
sure you’re not in a big crowd if you
don’t think any of this makes sense
consider this for April Fool’s 2015
Google Maps allowed for pretty much this
exact experience essentially inspiring
Pokemon go so don’t you feel foolish now
Oh number eight World of Warcraft to
this day this MMORPG towers over its
competitors with its addictive nature
fast fantastical landscapes and
abundance of content fire
while Wow go wouldn’t have the same bite
as some of its much more lore driven
content there’s little doubt who could
provide a great addition for fans it is
good to see you my student exploring
your local area in order to find loot
and overall acting like an extensive
fetch quest or possibly meeting up with
other people at real-world landmarks to
start raids the real selling point
however would be the ability to link
player accounts to the main game through
battlenet meaning that your time in
Azeroth would be just as valuable as
your time in the real world for when my
days have come to an end you shall be
number seven The Da Vinci Code so dark
the con of man no fancy yourself as a
master detective who can break codes
thousands of years old
then take up the mantle of Robert
Langdon and take on history’s most
fantastical and deadly conspiracies
cross wrong
the poem must mean a literal a cross
while it could easily follow in the
footsteps of Dan Brown’s novels and
focus on secrets hidden in the likes of
DaVinci works using the Pokemon go
system opens up the option for exploring
mysteries in players hometowns the
Damon’s home
imagine hunting down clues that exist in
local monuments and landmarks creating a
unique experience for each user in each
different place these aren’t tombs odd
yes of course no they’re effigies what
not tombs there’s no bodies here
this place is from number six you heal
not only really Adventures of Yugi moto
and company a huge hit with the anime
community but it also breathes new life
into a card game that’s still thriving
to this day prepare yourself because
it’s time to duel
while We certainly have an abundance of
turn-based yugioh video games out there
giving it the Pokemon go treatment
wouldn’t just allow for online duels but
the incentive to travel in order to
collect rare cards would be a huge draw
guaranteed if the blue-eyes White Dragon
presented itself fans would come running
at the chance to add it to better decks
two generations in one attack
hearthstone would also be a good
candidate but Warcraft already made the
list
so the duelists take the Honor surprised
did you think your grandfather was the
only one to possess a blue-eyes White
Dragon
number five yokai watch oh I am a yokai
that thing you humans call it ghost
spirit or an extra dimensional being
okay never heard of it seriously its
popularity has already spawned into an
anime series and the premise is just
dying to follow in Pokemon ghost
footsteps what’s that it’s the yokai
watch what’s a yokai watch it enables
you to see the yokai definitely on the
cuter side of the spectrum players would
find themselves hunting down the titular
yokai adorable little ghosts using a
mechanic known as the yokai lens where
you can scan objects in the real world
looking for said yokai I don’t see
anything
keep searching you can’t see the yokai
unless they’re hit directly by the light
while battling hostile ghosts would also
come as part of the package deal the
real joy would come from finding and
tending to the most beard and wonderful
of anime phantoms while yokai watch
isn’t as big of a title as some of the
rest of the entries on this list it’s
one of the few games where very little
would be lost in the translation to a
real world a argue
what the heck is that paint is Murrell
de it’s a youkai who creates tension
wherever she goes number four Slenderman
he’s petrified the likes of gamers
everywhere with the eight pages and
haunted the darkest corners of their
minds with the arrival but putting the
infamous Slenderman in your iOS device
would be the scariest thing of all from
a gameplay standpoint the mechanics of
tracking down inked pages within a
specific amount of space would
definitely suffice the only thing that
the developers would need to nail is
their approach to the monster itself
[Music]
should players have the guts to play it
at night in a small vicinity having to
run from Slenderman would make this not
only entertaining but probably also
terrifying
number three Harry Potter ah mr. Potter
a toss
the video game adaptations of the Boy
Who Lived haven’t exactly hit it with
the critics but years after the books
and films have ended the source material
is still bursting at the seams with
content to be drawn from
whether taking up magical classes in
your living room turning your phone into
wands hunting down dark wizards getting
your own owls or learning a variety of
spells
there are numerous directions a game
like this could take yes oh yes hey as
long as we get to engage in wizard duels
and can get our hands on a fire bolt
we’re pretty much good
number two fatal frame and exactly the
same as the ones monitor were they taken
with this camera
if there was ever a franchise that was
begging to be revisited it would be this
survival horror series that made players
terrifying to look through the lens of
their camera translated to a Pokemon go
style of gameplay it would turn every
household into a living nightmare and it
would be pretty awesome
players could end up taking on a swarm
of vicious ghosts as well as some
chilling yet creative boss fights all
while gathering equipment to upgrade
their mobile version of the camera
obscura for a better chance at survival
before we unveil our number one pick
here a few honorable mentions
[Music]
ah
number one ghostbusters it’s here dorsal
apparition and it’s real what is there
to say here ghosts and Pokemon go seem
to go hand-in-hand and nowhere is that
better emphasized then with the
franchise that didn’t make capturing
ghosts a nerve-wracking experience it
made it awesome
turning every player into an honorary
Ghostbuster and every phone into a
proton pack users would find themselves
hailing the call to engage and capture a
variety of paranormal beings popping up
everywhere which could range in
difficulty and offer various rewards
upon completion the option to upgrade
and alternate proton packs with every
successful capture take on creatures the
size of the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man
heck the reasons go on and on
make it happen already it’s a class-4
oppression that’s ok she seems peaceful
my name is Aaron Gilbert doctor of
particle physics

franchise do you think should get the
