Hiroshima Memorial Wants Out of 'Pokémon GO'

Officials in Tokyo are pleading for the makers of the addictive game Pokémon GO to get their PokéStops out of the Hiroshima memorial, The New York Times reports.

The memorial park is about to remember the 1945 American nuclear bombing on Aug. 6, and they want developer Niantic to remove all the virtual reality locations from the premise before them. When asked by the Times for comment, Niantic refused to talk about their private discussions.
