4th Gen Are you pre-ordering/importing HG/SS?

[bobandbill]

What figurines?
Can you post a link?

From the info thread (pictures there as well - https://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=180796):

If you pre-order HeartGold from Japan, you get a Ho-oh figurine - if you pre-order SoulSilver, it's a Lugia figurine - and if you pre-order both, you get both of them, as well as an Arceus figurine. Pre-orders for it start on July the 4th.

I don't know if they come if you import, although I have my doubts. And if they did come... wouldn't it be mentioned from the site you pre-order from? But I can't say for sure, yet.

Can I pre-order the Japanese version of both games and still get the figurines?

Not only that but you get Arceus to boot! You pre-order 2 games get 3 figurines.

 

[.Wolfie-kun.]

I really, REALLY want that Lugia figurine!

As much as I want to import the US version, knowing me I'll probably wait it out for the UK version, the one I'm supposed to have and the version I've always bought my games with.

 

[Ru-Kun]

I'm hopefully going to be able to pre order Soul Silver today, but I have a question. How or where do you go on Play Asia to pre order the game? Do you go to add to cart or what?

 

[Aro-kun]

I pre ordered it.....on my laptop XD (If ya catch my drift)
nah, i'ma pre order it when it comes to U.S, but for now.....I'ma DL it when jp version comes out.

De rep person:"You fail for stealing"

XD I said i was preordering the american version.........im just gonna "Try" the japanese version first XD

 

[La Foudre]

My boyfriend's dad's friend works for the people who make these games, I'm sure if I beg he can get them for me. xD

 

[Serene Grace]

I don't understand Japanese so why would I waste my money in buying a game that I can't even decipher? That's a no for me.

Also, there should be a poll in this thread.

 

[Chris The Nerd]

When it comes out in Japan i'll download it (Shhhhh, don't tell anyone.)
then I'm gonna buy the US version when it comes out.

 

[Ellie]

No. I'm waiting for the US release to pre-order. I'm still not sure if I should pre-order both or just one though.

 

[kohei]

Pre-ordered SS at Yodobashi a while back.
Not going for both versions, so no Arceus figurine for me.

I'm hopefully going to be able to pre order Soul Silver today, but I have a question. How or where do you go on Play Asia to pre order the game? Do you go to add to cart or what?

Yes. Just add to the card, proceed to checkout, and they'll ship it when the game is released.

 

[Mewtwo42]

I think I might pre-order the Japanese version. IT'll be impossible to read... but oh well.
I can't wait until the English version comes out, so I'll get the Japanese ver.... unless it's to expensive.

 

[Kanto_Johto]

No. Stupid idea. I'm waiting for the European release. Why would anyone want the Japanese version of the game?

 

[Serazahr]

No. Stupid idea. I'm waiting for the European release. Why would anyone want the Japanese version of the game?

Well if you understand Japanese why not?
(because you said "anyone")

 

[Game Over1375]

*raises hand*

They have started pre-ordering in the US...

I pre-ordered both, so I'm getting all three figurines!

 

[blake910]

do you have to pre order them or can you buy them when they come out

 

[NDS525]

I'll wait for SS to come to the US,
I know I'm not pre-ordering it from Japan.​

 

[Ru-Kun]

Yes. Just add to the card, proceed to checkout, and they'll ship it when the game is released.

Thank you soooo much!!! I'm hopefully going to pre-order it tomorrow, although this means i have to be really nice to my mom (I has no credit card....)

 

[Percy Thrillington]

Nah, I haven't pre-ordered the game already, but I might do so if I can find the money for it. If I can't - I don't mind. I can wait until it gets released where I am.

 

[Blue Nocturne]

I'm gonna get Heart Gold, but I'm not pre-ordering it from japan. I'm just going to download the ROM to get a feel for the game until the European release comes out three months or so after the US release. Im not bothered about getting a Ho-Oh figurine and i'm not paying a lot of money to have a game i cannot understand imported from Japan.

 

[Laprasas7]

Not me because I don't understand Japanese and what is the point to play a game you don't understand ;) Gonna wait till it comes to US ;)
