Damn, no more Pokemon Center. I was hoping the renovations going on were just to update the place to make it more of a tourist attraction but it sounds like they're trying to mimic the Sony store 4 or 5 blocks away.

The Pokemon Center will still be there except it will probably be much smaller and will now be a part of the Nintendo Store

Wait, where is the Sony store? Is it dedicated to Sony gaming or Sony in general?

I'll be at the launch of the Nintendo store. Will anyone else be there?

Sony in general. There is one near me and it is similar to the Apple store.
