6th Gen When will you buy Pokemon OR/AS?

[Bounsweet]

Release date, as always. I've gotten Pokémon games on the release date since Diamond and Pearl came out, and I've pre-ordered every game since then. I just put down my pre-order for Alpha Sapphire today, actually!

 

[Pepperton]

I'm getting it November 20th, because I actually own Pokemon. I am Nintendo.

What can I say? I'm just better than the rest.

 

[L0RD G3NGAR]

I'm thinking as soon as it's released. That if if the stores have it that day where I live or when I get there, and if they are not sold out...

 

[Hermione Granger]

I'll be getting both games the day they launch since I pre-ordered both at my local gamestop.

 

[Jorah]

As long as the post is alright, I'll be getting it for the EU release date (maybe the day before? Please GAME?).

 

[Cura]

I just pre-ordered both copies this morning, putting 5$ down on them both.
Since in October, I have to finish paying SSB4 off for the 3DS, I might as well, pay both off when the time comes for them as well.

@Pepperton:

 

[PlatinumDude]

I pre-ordered Alpha Sapphire, so I'll be getting it on release day (Nov. 21).

 

[LyokoGirl5000]

If preorders count, I bought it the second it was available on Amazon. I always save up my money when a new main series Pokemon game is announced so I have enough money to buy it the second it's released.

 

[Altairis]

I'm probably going to pre-order it at Best Buy, then walk over to get it since the store is so close. I'm so excited I will probably wake up early to go get it 8)

 

[Diggerez]

I'll probably pre-order it before the release day and if not the wait for my birthday isn't that long so I'll just wait until then

 

[Sheep]

21st November, yay for being in the US. :D I might go with the digital copy since I'm always lazy to go into GameStop alone lol. Though I definitely prefer physical copies. We'll see!

 

[Deltios]

I'm planning to Pre-order Alpha Sapphire a month in advance, to ensure release-date access.
I have to wait a month tho'. Don't get much money from mom (Though enough to be satisfied, let's not ask huge demands here xP)
Saving up for ANY game takes one month. Works for me. ^^"

 

[mikey]

I am going to be preordering one of the versions this weekend when I go home. No GameStop around my college right now lol. Probably AlphaSapphire because Sapphire was my first Hoenn game. So I will pick up the day it comes out, and probably get OmegaRuby soon after.

I haven't been this excited for a Pokemon game since HeartGold and SoulSilver.

 

[oshimas]

I ended up reserving/preordering my copy at target. c: since i work on release date, i'll go in in after work. (since i heard things get messy when preordering games is from gamestop)

 

[εcho.]

I'll be getting Alpha Sapphire on release day (21st here).


Still not sure whether or not I'm going to download it at midnight or pre-order and then go to the store and pick it up... I have class at 9am so it makes getting it from EB Games first thing in the morning impossible, but I don't know if I have the patience to wait until 1pm when all my classes are done. x3

 

[bobandbill]

I'll preorder it, but I'll have to pick it up a day later (unless I get someone to pick it up for me). I'm in another state until then quite likely, which is a pity but I suppose is still better than waiting a week longer like poor Europe...

 

[Sceptile14]

28th sadly :( I'm going to have to hibernate from the internet for a week(although, it being a remake, means there's not a lot storywise to be spoilt).

 

[XtinaIsMeLuvinWWE]

On the 28th for me as that's the release date; I'm lucky that in previous years I've been able to just waltz into the store without pre-ordering so I'm hoping that'll be the same case this year lol :)

 

[Colress Machine]

Gonna preorder Alpha Sapphire as soon as I get the chance, and I'm going to pick it up on the 21st. I'm gonna get Omega Ruby later on in the year (unless I get the money for both before hand).

 

[Aizuke]

Pre-order both Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, which both come out on the 21st of Nov here. I pre-ordered each from different places so I could get different pre-order exclusive items. And one of the places I pre-ordered from might be doing a midnight release with a tournament and winner gets their copy of ORAS free. 8) Totes gonna enter and win that prize!
