[Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl] Buying on release?

Will you be buying BDSP on release? ⭐

I shall be getting both on release, although it'll probably be several months before I get around to Shining Pearl. But I want those figurines and buying them separately would probably cost me far more than it should, so...

...and if I don't get them on day of release there is going to be hell to pay, I don't pay for tracked delivery to wait until the following Monday or later to get my games >.>

I preordered Shining Pearl on my Switch bc I had a giftcard. I went with Pearl bc I feel like everyone is going with Diamond.

Will be getting both day one, will probably play Brilliant Diamond first though.

I'll eventually get both. But I'll probably grab Brilliant Diamond on release only because I originally had Diamond back in 4th gen when they D/P were new.

I'm considering it this time. Thinking of redeeming some of my Instant Gift card perks on Swagbucks a week before the games release so I can buy them on the day of release. I get five instant gift cards a month, so I might just use some so I can buy the games earlier than I usually do.

Waiting to see how much budget looks like when they release, but I'm leaning towards no. I usually prefer to wait for discounts (even though Nintendo first party games barely ever get any...) unless I really, really like the franchise or have a lot of faith in the performance of the game, and after the most recent Pokemon games I'm a little skeptical.

Yeah I will be buying the game on the first day

Probably not, but I will DEFINITELY be getting it early enough to get the Manaphy.

I was under the impression the Manaphy Egg was a pre-order bonus?

It is via Mystery Gift until February 21!

Yep, I am gonna get it on release! I am gonna get BD I think.

I already preordered BD since I played Diamond back in the day.
I'll buy SP when someone sells them at second-hand price just to play the Pearl side.

I am considering it this time. It would be the first time I do this for a Pokemon game.

I will be getting it today as my two brothers were kind enough to get me a gift card for the game no idea what I wanted for my birthday so there said there would buy Pokémon for me

For sure, the hype is huge XD

When it comes to Pokemon games my friend and I always do pre orders and then stay up all night to play them.
