Tell you what, give me a load of free incubators, we'll forget the whole thing.
Wow, in-game money!Slow wanking motions ensue.
Niantic didn't ask you to travel to Chicago for the event. They fucked up super hard, but attempts at refunds for ticket and in-game money was offered.
Is this like that Ja Rule festival except instead of eating slices of bread they just couldn't catch pokemons?
lol nerds are just the worst.
I don't think it is baseless of people traveled to the event and then the only thing they offered was a refund of the event ticket. I would be pissed too. But I also would not spend money to travel to an area for a mobile game event.If I attended a pudding festival but the festival organizers couldn't supply pudding at the festival, I'd be annoyed. I think the lawsuit is baseless though.

People got refunded so this is not going anywhere. You can try to argue the "I wouldn't travel to this place otherwise" but if that was valid reasoning then music artists would be sued non-stop.
Really pathetic that people think they arent allowed to do a class action suit.

Were they just going to Chicago to play Pokémon Go for 7 hours and just going to leave?

I'm still wondering what kind of chewing out Niantic is getting from Nintendo and The Pokémon Company behind the scenes.
They were ridiculously off-brand.
The presenters couldn't even pronounce "Pokemon" right, and then holding the camera on those offensive and sexually nicknamed 'Mons, just for starters.
There's a Franchise Bible out there that Niantic's heavily out of compliance with.

This is shaping up to be the Fyre Festival of video game conventions.
EDIT: Damn, beaten.
if I traveled to comic con to meet a bunch of celebs and see a ton of panels, but they were ALL cancelled, I have no right to be mad? The whole event was to play the game and get special rewards, but that wasn't delivered.

No, they weren't forced to go.I don't have a dog in the fight, but if they couldn't play the game, don't they have a case?
There are plenty who would do something like this. Gamers aren't special.I don't think there's another group who would try and claim their travel expenses back through litigation because an event was rubbish outside the gaming community TBH.

Hopefully this will force Nintendo to dump a competent amount of the millions the game is making back into the infrastructure for the game. There is a very good chance that Nintendo is continuing its tradition of using this new entry into the franchise as a "put the least amount of resources as humanly possible into this project because it's guaranteed to sell no matter what" prop for the rest of the company. Pokemon and Animal Crossing both exhibit this fine title.

Jesus christ. Proper mental right there. I would, at best, travel 3 hours for something I absolutely loved. That is just too much lolI nearly shat when I found out that people were hopping on international flights for this thing. I've played almost every day since it came out and I can't be bothered to drive a few blocks for a Pokestop some days.
People are nuts.
