    since it was confirmed that both version have significant differences in game other than the exclusive pokemon, its going to be a much harder choice for the fans to pick if they have only one choice, so i guess getting both is the best solution :D

    I will buy both of course!!! I will play Pokemon Black primarily, because I love the legendary Pokemon that is the mascot for that game -the white legendary Pokemon Reshiram. I haven't yet developed a taste for the Pokemon White mascot Zekrom...

    It's always good to buy both games if you can. That means double the event giveaways, and you can always trade with yourself to get all 3 starters and such (if you have access to two DS's).

    I am so excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So excited that I wish I could learn Japanese and somehow buy it imported from Japan so I can get it in fall instead of spring...But I don't really mind at all that it comes out in spring because my birthday is in March, so that means I won't have to worry about having the money for the games! Birthday present! Just like SS/HG was my present this year! ^.^

    Everyone is mentioning a third game? Is that rumor/speculation? Or confirmed?

    For now a third game is just speculation, just like MagmaRuby and AquaSapphire. None of these are confirmed except for Black and White.

    In the mean time, I still plan on getting White and a DS (XD) sometime soon, just because Zekrom looks so awesome!

    More than likely, I'll get white, but I'm aiming to get both. >:3

    It also depends on the exclusives, so it can switch from wanting the one game to the other.

    I'll buy both of course! The reason is :
    -I'll choose different gender each game (Male in White and Female in Black.).
    -So I can catch Both Legendary mascot.
    -Be able to trade over the Starters to my main Game (White Version).
    -Who knows, maybe the New Evolution needs to Trade w/t Item to Evolve.
    -Some cool Pokemon may exclusive in each game.
    That's the reason I'll buy both.

    lol Right now I'm leaning more towards the Black version because of Reshiram.
    But it still depends on the other pokemon that I want to form my team with.
    I still think both of the mascots look sort of odd... but I suppose reshiram is the better looking one.

    They're not simple as the previous Gen mascots to me. Both are really complicated design and very monstrous looking! But still better to me. They're both like a Dragon robot-like to me, since I got the new Info about they're related to Computer terms thing.

    From what I've been hearing elsewhere, the games stories are going to be slighty more different this time round from just the different legendary mascot thing.

    I'll be getting all 3 anyway.

    At first I would have said Black but turns out the cooler legendary is in White.
    Zekrom is Epic Win!
    Eventually I'll get all three.

    I think I will be getting White version...but hopefully I'll just get both. Doesn't really matter to me really.

    The pokemon black legendary looks alot cooler, but for some reason, the pokemon black mascot is white, and the pokemon white mascot is black O.o

    As of right now, it's gonna be Black. But I'll check into things first and make sure which exclusive crap I want first before truly choosing.
