I thought this article pretty well sums up what I've seen going on:

Pokemon and the power of nostalgia

Amazing how many people you see going around playing it. I didn't think it'd be as big here as in the US, but seems it is probably.

Yeah it is a concern but I think you are right in that if people take the right precautions, however old they are then they will be fine.

Certainly a lot of good to come out of it. Gaming outside the house really seems like a winner.

Although it is possible just to put lures down & get the pokemon to come to you... you still have to travel around to the different areas to get different types.
