Has Pokemania returned?

[CM30]

Because not only is Pokemon GO doing amazingly (as usual), but it's also significantly boosted sales of the other Pokemon games too. More people are buying X and Y, as well as Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire too.

The Nintendo 3DS was even the best selling system this month!

So yeah, as Pokemon GO revived the Pokemon hype train? What do you think about this?

It's certainly boosted the sales of the Pokémon games (specifically 3DS sales), but I don't think the Pokémon hype train ever left, really.

I wonder how this will affect Sun and Moons release?

 

[Magma]

I think it has. I mean Pokemon has always been a strong seller but it hasn't had this sort of mainstream attention in ages.

Yes and ebay's current auctions for pokemon cards proves this http://www.ebay.com/sch/Pokemon-Trading-Cards/104044/bn_3117151/i.html.
