Aw man, I was hoping for December '09, but this is okay too. Good to know, I guess.

Spring of 2010 was pretty predictable looking back at previous releases. The release of Platinum itself was during Spring of this year as well in the states. It is glad that confirmation has been announces though as I'm sure it'll please many of the American fans as well as European and Australian. Though, the preview of the game seemed really great and a lot of three dimensional aspects of it was shown as well. The insights to the game was also pretty nice to see and I think when it's released I'll be on of the first in lines, [/lol].

Pre-orders for the American versions of HeartGold and SoulSilver would probably begin around late December to beginning January, though this is speculation of course. As for the game's logos, they are actually in a different text format. A bit surprise, but really nice nevertheless. I like it and a bit of change is pretty nice for a game so highly wanted.

Spring wouldn't be the anniversary release for the games, as the originals came out on October 15th for the American version. So, I'm glad to say you aren't an idiot, but with this being said I'm glad the release wasn't held until an anniversary release, but instead earlier like it has been these past few years.

I had a really strong feeling in my gut that it was going to be a Spring release. Now it's just a matter of waiting. Any ideas on the start of pre-orders?

From past speculations and confirmation that the release will be during Spring, my guess is that pre-orders for the American copy won't begin until late December to January some time. Again, this is based on speculations. For instance, when Platinum's release date was uncovered for March 22 [a Spring release], pre-orders began around the end of December.

Why would it take so much time to damn translate? :S
Anyways, fan translations will probably flow in 2-3 months, along with walkthroughs. And the Johto games are probably the ones I know the most so it won't matter for old school people~

P.S, spring actually means a year from now. Blah.

EDIT: IGNORE THIS POST. I confused and had a bit lack of knowledge...I feel stupid now lol

The names usually aren't altered from the Japanese versions from what I recall. However, I do agree on the logo for HeartGold and SoulSilver, it is different and gives the game a good impression. Like said, it isn't bland, but it appears more historic in a different point of view. The older looking of the text and the rugged edges [more so HeartGold] gives the game a more definite change compared to the past games before it. Other than this, there isn't much to say but lets wait another six or so months.

Would The Japanese Event For HG/SS (Where You Get The Pikachu Coloured Pichu) From The 12th Movie Japanese, would that work on the American/European Version Of HG/SS Too? or would there be separate ways to get them for the English Versions?

I have a feeling It will be before March 22, which was the date of Platinum, if not, no later than April. I CANT WAIT! Time to start saving! Well I need about 200 bucks if I want a DSi and SS so time to start job hunting!
