It seems many people have gotten the game (not the rom) and are playing it now. For those of us outside of Japan, have you all received the game in the mail yet? I pre-ordered from PlayAsia, but for those who pre-ordered elsewhere: has it come?

Regards,
Doxasikyrie

Ok, just to clear up, if it was one of my posts concerning me playing HGSS that made you think people have it, I am playing a ROM I downloaded.

It's this simple. They are lieing about it or using R4 or something like that. Game stores got the game shipped to them 2 days early (causing the rom leak/early dump) they shipped it out the day they got it so you would get it closer to the release date. But there would be no reason that the game would come to AMERICA in less then a day(In fact,it's not even possible)

Those who claim to have the actual game, i.e. Serebii, are lying out their ass, but he would never admit to it. They're using a flash cart. There was only 1 leaked copy of the game, believed to be owned by Shokotan, who, by the way, has some weird stuff on her blog.

(Retailers giving games to family or friends, or being paid a sum to get it early, etc.) If Shokotan is the only one with the game, how is there a ROM? You have to be able to get a copy of the game from a retailer (or leaked card from Nintendo, the publishers) to dump the ROM data in the first place, and that's exactly what XPA did.
Whatever, I choose to believe that Serebii just has the rom on a flash cart. If he didn't he would have shown pictures of the box, manual, pokewalker, and cartridge. And until he posts said pictures with a piece of paper with the date.

TL;DR
PICS(not just of the game playing on a ds) OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN.

He woulnt post box pics or stuff like that cause thats what Serebii does. He tries and gets the best quality possible and he already has a box pic so why would he need to put another low quality one?

Screenshots complete with No$gba's imperfections.
no$gba only looks like crap using the nocash render, and even when using OpenGL it still has black backgrounds on most moves, but DeSuME runs the game flawlessly, no imperfections, except the occasional black spot on the ground while walking, even when using the OpenGL render. The most recent screenshots of the game were taken from a camera from that girl from 2ch. I was lurking both /v/ and 2ch last night waiting for her to wake up to take more pictures.

Either one person or many have a copy of the game and have managed to dump a copy which they then proceeded to upload to the internet. Either it was leaked or people have been getting them early, I know some stores don't worry about release dates they just release what ever they have in stock.

Today is the actual release of the game in Japan. It can be shipped to me any day now since a pre-ordered the game. Although I'm not expecting it till next week for such a high demand in Heart-Gold. I could get it earlier with fed-ex but I'm not that impatient. Just wait a couple of days and the copies will come.

I actually bought both. Hopefully, they'll be shipped out within a week or two. I used the UPS shipping option, which was $20, but the games come quickly.

Oh, and I am totally convinced as well that Serebii has his game on a flash cart. I don't want to start an argument, but honestly, people lying about such things really gets on my nerves.

Well, mine still hasn't come yet. :( Oh well, I guess that's what I get for picking the second cheapest option.

Has anyone who pre-ordered the game received it yet? How long did it take to get and where did you order from?
