I think I'll be preordering them from GAME since that's the shop that gets all the preorder bonus gifts.

I got my Palkia stylus and Giratina figure from them and I got the Zelda: Spirit Tracks tin and figures from them so I'm assuming they'll be giving away the Lugia, Ho-oh and Arceus figures when you preorder both versions. (I'll eventually have them both and I might as well get all three figures)

The reward card is another bonus so I'll get a little bit of money back from the £60 or £70 I'm going to have to save.

It's definitely on; I've preordered both games from there. Make sure to type HeartGold/SoulSilver instead of Heart Gold, Soul Silver with spaces. It's definitely worth ordering now as Amazon are offering it for £10 than the normal retail price.

Im holding my breath for GAME to give us maybe an event pokemon as they usually hold the exclusive items for games when they come out over here. Although us pokefans in UK get fudged as we dont get many events.

Gunna buy em both on release day =)

I'm hoping we'll maybe get Mew/Celebi either from an event, or even just a Wifi distribution. I was gutted that I missed the EU Shaymin item distribution (I hadn't played Pokemon for a few months and the event date had to be then, right...) So I'm going to keep a super close eye on websites. Hopefully we might get some kind of GAME or Toys 'r' Us event, although the T'r'U ones seem to be a more American thing.
Fingers crossed though!

I could tell you but it'd probably warrant a warning from a admin/mod cos it'd involve alot of !*%&$!!!! ^_^

If you'd like to pre-order it instore you can always do that, ALL GAME stores have a list of future releases behind the counter even if they haven't recieved a set date yet. All you need to do is go in with your GAME reward card and ask to pre-order it. They wont charge you until you pick it up unless you aren't a GAME reward member.

Don't ask me if they'll arrange a delivery cos i dont know but if you can pick it up then they can do that.

IIRC, GAME aren't too amazing at updating their website with stuff on time. :/ If you have a store near you, I recommend going in there and asking about pre-ordering. Especially if they're going to be releasing promotional items/events with 'em.

... Wow - much faster than I expected but hey, I'm not complaining XD

Will be buying (or pre-ordering) SoulSilver (depending on any pre-order bonuses) as soon as I get Mass Effect 2 (Already pre-ordered) and when I get money sorted for Final Fantasy XIII also.

... Goodbye social life *Shot'd* XDDD

March can't get any better! First, Doctor Who's new series starts in March. Then, a current production of Windy City starts in March, in which I'm playing an important character! And now, HG and SS are coming out in March too!! I think it's slated to be the best month of the year. Also, my little brother's birthday is also in March. ;)

Doctor Who is coming back to us in MARCH?! Oh my god. That month is actually going to kill me from sheer win; Doctor Who, Pokémon HeartGold and the DSi XL! :D

With the US and UK release coming out in March, one could only assume the Australian release shouldn't be far off. If I recall correctly, I do remember Jake (Anthony La) saying it was reported by TPCI that Australia should be receiving their copies of HeartGold and SoulSilver by April. So, until an official confirmation of this is released, the Australian date isn't known, but might not be that far off from the US and UK release.

As for the month of March, I can say it will be a memorable month this year for fans of the game and Nintendo. With Pokémon Platinum ranking number 10 in the most sold games of 2009 (from Nintendo, XBox, PC, PS3, etc.), HeartGold and SoulSilver may have better ranking by the end of this year, but one can only wait to find out.

I know that I'll be waiting until March to pick up a new DSi and the new games (probably HeartGold first), but does the PokeWalker need to be on belt or can it work in pocket bag etc?

No, the information given on UK's release date is March 26th 2010. It has been confirmed by the the Official Nintendo Magazine of UK of this date. As for the American release of HG/SS, this will be the 14th of March 2010. However, there is slight possibility of this date being changed, but it is unlikely.

I always thought that Australians recieved PokeMon games quite fast, in the older games like Gold, Silver, Ruby etc didn't Australia get them a few minths after Japan then the rest of the world later?? I could be wrong!!

Yay, I'll probably buy SS a while after it comes out in scandinavia (... which is the same time as anywhere else in Europe lol)...
This game's gonna be so awesome to play in English... ^¬^
