I pre-ordered both way back a couple of months ago (if I'm remembering right) and have paid all of it except for $30 that I'm gonna pay when I pick them up!!

I don't really see the point in pre-ordering, if you do here, all you get is a coin. The other reason is that it is normally available a lot cheaper on release day at the department stores anyway.

Just pre-ordered my copy of Black 2 about half an hour ago online. It's supposed to arrive on release day, but last time it said that it came the day after... hope it's right this time around. :)

I already pre-ordered Black 2 so during my break on Oct 7, I'm gonna pick it up, if that day isn't on the weekend, is it?

Shiny_Wooper September 14th, 2012 12:06 PM

i always pre-order games i pre-ordered b/w 2 about a week ago

TornZero September 15th, 2012 8:10 PM

Welp, I pre-ordered mine just about an hour and a half ago, even though I don't have a DS to play it on right now. xD

I should, JB Hifi is taking pre-orders for $48 AUD, which is better than anywhere else iv'e seen. Still expensive compared to the rest of the world, like usual. But kinda funny cause they are selling the originals for $55 haha.

Will there be any pre-order bonuses for these games? Or any specific rreason to pre-order the game?

There was some talk in the beginning about a key chain that I heard from my GS store, but so far there is nothing!!

EDIT: I think the only reason to pre-order is to assure that you get a copy!!

Well atm i wont have the spare cash to get on release, an if no special goodies i guess i'll just hold out on getting my copy. Any idea what the key chain was supposed to be of?

~RNC~ September 17th, 2012 7:57 PM

My friend at GS said it was gonna be a Meloetta key chain but he not know pokemon really so I think he might have been just guessing!!

Ah ok well it's always nice to get something with a pre-order, give the dedicated players soething extra whether it be a keychain or something else.
I may put the minimum pre-order amouunt down just in case =] ty for the info =]

~RNC~ September 17th, 2012 8:31 PM

Your welcome, and it would have been nice, they haven't had extras since HG / SS it would have been nice, but I pre-order just to make sure I get my copies and they do not sell out!! You never know how many pokefans are in your area and they only get a limited amount of copies!!

pokeskate September 18th, 2012 10:58 AM

Damn just a key chain? Well, that's better than that abnormal stylus for diamond and Pearl lol

professor plum September 18th, 2012 11:01 AM

I preordered both games as soon as I could, and paid them off about a month ago. I bought a copy for myself and my boyfriend. C:

Xander Olivieri September 18th, 2012 12:03 PM

The three Gamestops near where I work said they didn't have any Pre-Order Bonuses for B2W2. They looked into their company's info and there was nothing listed for Pre-Order. One said their Books may be on sale with Pre-Order only, but that's not an actual bonus as the store is doing that.

I think at Toys R Us, we are probably going to do Buy B2W2 and get other Pokemon Merchandise % off like time with Black and White. Though that's my store. I can't speak for all TRU's

chella182 September 18th, 2012 12:14 PM

I've pre-ordered both versions :) can't wait!

blue September 18th, 2012 12:51 PM

There's a Pre Order bonus for Australia:

william.alsup September 18th, 2012 1:32 PM

Yerp. I've preordered :P Pretty excited. You know what's fun? Being that awkward guy who looks like a complete stoner, who pulls out his Pokeball Skinned 3DS and proceeds to hang around the counter for his Keldeo download.... hehehe

I was going to pre-order a copy of White 2, but I usually just go to the 24hr Walmart near me at midnight the day something I want is getting released. There is never a line.

Zaroas September 18th, 2012 5:03 PM

Just pre-ordered my copy of Black 2 when I went to pick up my Keldeo and Borderlands 2 at GameStop. Can't wait until October 7th.

User19sq September 18th, 2012 7:12 PM

Pre-ordered and paid off a copy of Black 2 and White 2, with Fullmetal Keldeo on the side. Don't you just love financial-aid leftover money? ;3

droomph September 18th, 2012 9:17 PM

I pre-ordered it not three minutes ago!

Ugh now I feel sad that I'm funneling my money away.

But this is more important, no?

curiousnathan September 18th, 2012 10:47 PM

I haven't pre-ordered B2 or W2, but I'm sure I'll snag one as soon as the come out! They don't sell out super super fast here, so, so far I've been lucky enough to get one without having to pre-order!
