Ayano Hana September 21st, 2008 1:27 AM

You probably wouldn't get anything. The only way to sell it would to be send it back to your mom and she would sell it back in Japan. Why would you even sell anyway? Platinum is an awesome game. I haven't seen any Japanese games in Gamestop before.

Postman September 21st, 2008 1:34 AM

You could just visit one of your local game stop stores, or even call.

What do you mean? You're lucky to get Platinum already.

Volkner's Apprentice September 21st, 2008 9:34 AM

You're also lucky you have a parent in Japan to send you that stuff O_O *wishes his dad traveled more*

Yeah. They probably will not take it since it was imported from Japan.
I'm positive that they only take English games (Unless you live in another country).

Not to be rude, but your avatar and signature make my eyes hurt.

Heh, my dad travels around the world (but not lately) for work purposes...
But I'm pretty sure he's never been to Japan. The closest country to Japan
that he's been to was Singapore. He had got me a Wii game from there for me.

...Platinum has undergone more changes than any other 3rd addition to a series in my opinion, and even has new Pokemon.

Why you would say something like that is beyond me.

An Imperialist named Dak September 21st, 2008 1:52 PM

you're a horrible man. You're mom just goes out there and gets a game you been Bawwing about for months and you just want to sell it? You are either insanely rich or just plain obnoxious.

Haza September 21st, 2008 2:20 PM

Im playing platinum right now too, aswell as Digimon Dusk and Grid.

But Im quite sure you can only sell english and french games in America at Gamestop because I sold French before and they knew it was french.

Moon lucario September 21st, 2008 3:16 PM

ok reason i would sell it is cuz u see i rly dont play my ds much anymore and (true platinum is kick ass) idk anyone in RL who likes pokemon or even likes to play a ds thats why i wanted to know if i could sell it.

seto9008 September 21st, 2008 3:36 PM

lol..
 
thats why i got an R4 XP, it pwns you, having to go all way to japan(well, get your mom to send it) to get it, i can just download it..
Plus, Hazabara, isnt digimon dusk release like.. A LONG LONG time ago?

Lord Yawgmoth September 21st, 2008 3:56 PM

Erm, Moon, could you repeat that stament in a way that isn't blasphemous to the English language? Thanks. =3

You can feel free to send it to me, i'll be happy to have a copy of platinum

Archeopterix September 21st, 2008 7:12 PM

If you really don't want it, just throw it in the microwave. Don't forget to film it, for the good of the internet.

Yeah but I could never find it here so I just started playing it Friday because thats when I got a preloaded SD card from the R4DS people. Is it really that old?

Dukey September 22nd, 2008 1:42 AM

lol seems like everyone is against you here...
anyways you might as well finish it and then see wat u think, otherwise just sell it on ebay (but remember to reset it)

Darklugia September 22nd, 2008 2:33 AM

You're lucky. :P

But I'd wait till the English one comes out. I can't play Japanese cos..well...I don't understand Japanese, so it would be useless to me.

Taemin September 22nd, 2008 10:55 AM

You have Platinum and you want to sell it?!

I'd totally keep it, if I were you.. not everyone gets lucky enough to own a Japanese copy of a Pokemon game.
Sure it might be slightly easier to play in english, but a lot of people are playing through Platinum just fine even if they
can't read Japanese. xD

You have amazingly flawed logic. I only have one person that I know who plays DS games, and they don't even play Pokemon games, but I'm still planning on getting and playing any of the Pokemon games that I want to play. What you insist is that you're one of those people who would rather follow the crowd than your own opinions; using the "I don't play my DS much, any more" as an excuse to cover up that fact.

Platinum is greater than D/P, greater than any 3rd game in any Generation, and all you can think about is the slight increase in your wallet size from selling it? Just because you don't know anyone who plays Pokemon?

There are loads of people who would love to have Platinum now; even in Japanese. Heck; I wouldn't mind having it. You should consider yourself lucky... even if it is in a language you can't understand.



That said, sorry if this post sounds like a rant; I just couldn't believe how obnoxious and unappreciative this topic looked.

Ooka September 22nd, 2008 12:34 PM

I honestly don't know why you guys are attacking her, what she decides to do with the game is her decision and no one else's.

On the subject though, I highly doubt any English game store will accept a foreign game. Can I suggest Ebay?

I played Naruto Ninja Council 4 for the ds in Japanese, and I got it for Christmas last year. Ds games are realy not hard to play in other languages ,it just takes longer to learn the ropes of the game than normal.
