Initially, I'm going to purchase a copy of HeartGold when it is released State-side. The reason for this is because when I started on Generation II, Gold was the first one I bought and the only one I bought of the original two Generation II games. So you could say I'm going for the nostalgia, this time around. I couldn't do that with the Generation I remakes, because they didn't release 'OceanBlue'. XD

But I opted to vote for both, because when released in the UK, I will probably purchase Soul Silver, as well. This is initially coming from my having all of the games, at current, for the most recent two Generations. XD HG/SS are no exception, because they are remakes of easily the best Pokemon games to date.

I'm a Pokemon Gold guy myself.
So I'll get that in English, but I'm purchasing the japanese Soulsilver first.

I'm definately getting both. I'm probably going to import Soul Silver from Japan, then buy Heart Gold when it comes to the U.S. The only reason why I am getting Heart Gold in English is beacuse that was the version I played in English (I never had Silver until a couple of moths ago, though the battery in it died. Stupid GameStop, not inspecting their products before they sell them).

I'll prob'ly end up getting HeartGold since my sister reeeeally wants SoulSilver. (She probably won't play otherwise xD) Plus, I've always preferred Ho-Oh's design to Lugia's.

It's a cheesy thing with the Heart Gold name. It's referring to all the things the trainer has to do for other people. That's what I think.

Probably HeartGold. Sometimes, in times like this, one of the choices just seem obvious.

Probably both, but Heart Gold first since that's what I bought first when the G/S first came out.

I'll probably get Heart Gold, since I only played Sliver when it came out.

Both if I can, but it seems kinda pointless if you think about it. ^^;
So I'll probably get Heart Gold <3

Since I've liked Silver more, due to Lugia quicker and just some of the exclusive Pokémon and had better sprites than Gold, I'll be getting this in English.

So, for me:
Heart Gold: Japanese
Soul Silver: English

Well, I am getting both, but I'm getting Soul Silver first since when i was like 9, well when gold and silver came out, i always loved pokemon silver version. So that is why. But I will get Pokemon Heart Gold after that when I get enough money. :]

SoulSilver... for two reasons.

1.) Always have liked Lugia better then Ho-Oh
2.) SoulSilver just sounds better then HeartGold

I may get HeartGold later just for the collection.

I'm getting SoulSilver for three reasons:
1. I played Silver when it came out, my younger brother had Gold.
2. I much prefer Lugia over Ho-Oh.
3. I like the more alliterative sound of SoulSilver.

My brother will be getting Heart Gold, so I will undoubtedly have both. :D

I've always played Silver, of the 2, however if they re-make Crystal I will undoubtedly buy that since I remember the second pokemon game I actually bought with my own money was Crystal.
