Welcome to Gaia! ::

that looks cool. which region is it gonna be in?

As of the 22nd of August, the of combined pre-orders for Pokémon Black and White, has reached 1.08 million units. That’s like, over one hundred times nine thousand.

Pokémon Company states that it is indeed a new feat for a Nintendo DS game, and even expects the game’s pre-orders to reach over 1.5 million units before the game’s Japanese release date of September 18.

Whilst Japan is enjoying their advantage of getting their hands on the game earlier, the rest of the world AKA us unlucky gamers will be having to wait until Spring 2011 (Autumn for us inhabitants of the Southern Hemisphere).

So, are you guys going to pre-order once you get the chance? Or try your hand at ransacking stores and batting away children in order to get a copy?
