  • I don't believe in playing ROMs that I don't have a physical copy of, so I have to say that I imported it. In fact, I was getting a little scared because it was around the ninth of September and I still hadn't preordered. The site I bought my Platinum from originally stated that all of their first shipment had all ready been preordered, and that bummed me out, however; some orders fell through and I was right there to put in a credit card number. xD

    I enjoy playing my games on a cartridge a lot more than ROMs just for the sake of saying I own it anyway. The colors on an emulator are often dimmer than on the real system and there are still quite a few little bugs in it. I'll take my cartridge over a ROM any day, thank you.

  • I've tried playing the rom, but I always get the white screen after the title screen. I'm still waiting on my import copy, so I guess I could say both an a few weeks time.

    Well, considering that ROMs are illegal, I'm going to have to say import, although I'll be doing neither with Platinum.

  • Wow an import of course. And how did you not know roms are illegal? I mean its a free way of getting a game that should be payed for cause the hard workers of gamefreak that made this piece of art have to get a paycheck somehow no? Anyweh im an importer but hell ill get the english one as well(cause all my jap games cant connect to internet and i usually just play it to know how fast i can go through a game in english after words. A self challenge really.
