    I'll pre-order the games from ebay, i know a seller who from Tokyo Japan, they include the pokewalker and also 2 figures which other site don't offer :D . It's much faster to pre-order the game from japan, cuz play-asia is a Hong Kong site so the percentage of delaying maybe high, they have to import the games from japan and ship them to your place :P What i'll do is pre-order the games from ebay, now all i have to do is wait .... XD

    I've already pre-ordered the game from Play-Asia. Although the game is in a different language, I'll still enjoy playing it.

    I will! Very soon! I've done the same for Pearl, Diamond, and Platinum. I can't stop there, I'll pre-order HG and SS as soon as I can! :D

    Can't read Japanese so I can't pre-order. I'll just wait until it comes out in Aus.

    I want to so bad, but I don't have money...
    Besides, my mom has never let me improt a Japanese Version of a game, and probably won't start now. :[

    I guess I'll just wait for the Japanese release and download the ROM.
    That's what I did for Platinum and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky.

    Same, for like the whole post ^__^
    Cos i don't have a credit card or anything my parents wouldn't pre-order me a japanese game, so yeah i'll just download the ROM or watch about 109794698365786478638683468369832649 youtube videos of gameplay ;)

    I'm not going to pre-order the Japanese ones since I can't read Japanese XD

    I'm planning to pre-order SoulSilver when in releases in Australia but I always want HeartGold as well :x Do you guys think I should pre-order both of them? :3

    I am going to pre-order HeartGold from Japan, once Amazon.co.jp has it listed. I am using tenso.com for shipping, as Amazon.co.jp doesn't ship outside of Japan.

    I am currently learning Japanese. Partly because I want to play HeartGold as early as possible. And a physical copy beats a ROM in every way (not trying to offend people who are getting the ROM).
     

    Pokestick good times.

    I haven't pre-ordered them, no. I might order them (or really it, I'm happy with just SS) from the US, though, because I'll get it earlier that way and I'll be able to play at the slots.

    I'll probably download the Japanese ROM and then import the American version. It all depends on whether HGSS is region locked, because I've heard Nintendo have started doing that with some titles...
