Im just going to buy them on release day, I have the money to buy them.

Seki March 20th, 2013 4:56 PM

I will get them as soon as it hits the shelves of my local stores.

Treecko March 20th, 2013 6:25 PM

I'm hoping to buy them on release , though at the moment I don't have a 3DS. So I'm gonna try to get a job by the summer so I can save up enough money to get both. I'm leaning more towards a 3DS XL right now since I like the size and better battery life. Once I get a 3DS , I'll pre-order the one I want (Most likely Y but I want to know more version exclusives first.) so I can pick it up on release day in October.

SoulSilver10112 March 20th, 2013 7:23 PM

I already preordered both, as well as paid both off. I just need to pick them up when they come out.

Student D1 March 20th, 2013 10:08 PM

I'll probably try to get them, specifically Pokémon X since that's my choice, on October. I do save a lot of money, and I think I can afford it and buy as early as I can. However, I don't buy a lot of games, and the money I save are mostly for emergency uses. So I'll get it then on my birthday or Christmas.

KJPokemon April 1st, 2013 7:36 PM

I've got a job so money won't be a problem but I do have to get a 3DS first. Hopefully they'll have a sale between now and october because I definitely want to play the games the day they come out.

Yusshin April 1st, 2013 10:59 PM

My birthday's in mid-October. You guess.

Will have birthday monies to pay for it. Yay for already having a 3DS (solves half the issue lol)

I don't live with my family, and I don't have any friends where I live. My coworkers don't like Pokemon, so I'll probably get this by myself (with boyfriend tagging along for company, whether he wants to or not) and enjoy it by myself lol

Princess Diana April 2nd, 2013 4:03 AM

I'm going to pre-order it ASAP and have it arrive on release day.

Archeops12354 April 2nd, 2013 5:54 AM

I will try to PRE-ORDER pokemon Y

Rebel Rebel April 2nd, 2013 6:31 AM

I'll probably get X at Walmart on release day, along with a 3DS. Would've bought a 3DS already if I hadn't gotten laid off, I'm hoping there will be some sort of X&Y bundle (maybe with a Xerneas-themed 3DS? Yes please.)

bookishangel April 3rd, 2013 9:56 AM

I plan on getting Pokemon X on the release day before I go to work. My local Gamestop is practically right next to where I work.

Legobricks April 5th, 2013 2:43 AM

I may buy one after the overall features common to both and version differences are known. I don't want to buy what is essentially another White only for XY2 to do what BW2 did. Game Freak will have to produce the refined game from the get go and then expand on that with their sequels, not produce half a game then release what the originals should've been.
Should cancel my pre-order, actually... don't know why I would ever pre-order anything.

Ace. April 5th, 2013 6:12 PM

First I'm gonna get a 3DS. Then after that I'm probably gonna wait a year or so (not sure). Then I'm gonna see if there's a third version then I'll probably gt that since the third version is always the one where you can catch both legendaries from the previous versions :3 Also I'll probably get one after reading those things from serebii since I want to know the version differences like the pokemon, places, and all those other stuff.

GrayJM9 April 17th, 2013 12:15 PM

I'm going to pre-order both of them some time before they are released.

MarinoKadame April 17th, 2013 12:37 PM

Maybe before the 30 June for the 3DS to get Platinum for Club Nintendo.

Oshamaru April 17th, 2013 6:56 PM

I'll pre-order one of the games if there's enough space for more pre-orders, since I still don't know what version should I get.

They overprice videogames in Mexico, but I think I have enough money saved up for the game.

Hermione Granger April 18th, 2013 8:42 AM

I'll pre-order the first of october, I'm likely gonna pre-order pokemon x since the legendary looks cooler than y.

Kitori April 18th, 2013 8:58 AM

I already have them both preordered. *-* Hopefully my gamestop will do a midnight release (I don't think they have in the past, but I do believe they opened early on pokemon day...).

Krookodile777 April 29th, 2013 11:50 PM

It's what, $40? No planning needed

I'll just be buying Pokemon Y the day it comes out no crazy saving up or holiday occasion money needed. & I thought I was poor O_o

SolarAbusoru April 30th, 2013 4:50 AM

Day 1 purchase for me, that's how all my Pokemon games are bought

ilias_ April 30th, 2013 6:43 AM

I have not decided which one I will buy but I will pre-order it!!
I cannot wait!!!!!! I bought a 3DS XL so I am ready haha

Kaori kyu May 9th, 2013 9:13 PM

Kiriyuuki Kasuna May 9th, 2013 9:57 PM

Tbh, I'm losing interest in X/Y because lack of news, so I don't see myself getting the games exactly, since I haven't actually owned a legit copy of the series since gen 2...

But all in all, I would want X in a few years or something, you know, so the original price goes down.

Now that we're only a few months off the release date and more retailers are taking pre orders, have you pre ordered Pokemon X or Y yet?
Do you think there will be any pre order bonuses or promotions closer to the release?
Discuss!

Apricots May 17th, 2013 5:05 AM

I haven't decided if I want to preorder or not. I don't even have a 3DS.
I usually do if there's a preorder bonus of some kind but that doesn't seem to be a popular thing to do anymore. ;n;
