Release of Pokémon GO Plus Delayed Until September

[Linkachu]

​

Anyone psyched to get their hands on Pokémon GO Plus, the rather pricey companion device for Pokémon GO? Then you'll likely be sad to hear that its release window has been pushed back from July until September 2016.

Note that we've only been given another release window, so an exact launch date for Pokémon GO Plus has yet to be revealed. We'll let you know once we know more - or if it sees further delays!

I actually forgot what these were supposed to do. Was it just that it would vibrate to alert you if a Pokemon was nearby?

What's the little pokeball-thing do?

I was really looking forward to this coming out so I could use it. It's been delayed?!

I wish I had a phone so I can play Pokemon go but again people can die from it so I am a little glad that I don't have a phone yet. But I am still a poke-trainer. :3

To be honest, this thing isn't nearly worth all that it is. I looked at it's official page, and found that it's features are excruciatingly lacking. It can do two things; trigger PokeStops, where you have to open your app to collect the items anyway, and alert you when a Pokemon is nearby, which, for all you know, could be a Ratatta that you could be wasting all of your Pokeballs on. $35 for that? No thank you.
