Thats great to hear, because GameFreak needs an ego boost like that. ^_^ I can't wait until it hits the US, oh what mayhem will occur. I just can't wait. Good news, overall.
Wow, if Platinum sold that much I wonder what a remake of Gold and Silver would sell....
I would buy it as my gameboy got stolen (errrr) and my gameboy colour isn't working :(
I reckon it would sell out due to people now more than ever wanting to complete the PokeDex.
