Since the games have been out for a month now (well, tomorrow it'll be, close enough), i'm curious as to how much time people have invested into it in that very time period. Have you been playing this thing like there's no tomorrow, or have you not logged much on it at all?

For me, i've logged 44.5 hours on Omega Ruby so far. That owes in part to having classes and papers to take care of throughout the first half of December, that and how I haven't gotten to attempting to find breeding material yet and i've transferred a few of my 5 IV'd Pokémon from X and not breeding them here. And that's the only playthrough i've done at the moment. I also had a tad over 25 hours when I beat the Champion.

How about you? How much have you tore into this thing so far? Discuss.

I currently have almost 68 hours on my Alpha Sapphire. I don't remember how many hours it took me to get to the Champion, but I'm pretty sure that it was less than 40.

I've got 84 and a half hours on the clock currently - and still ticking.
I've defeated the League at about 75 hours and completed the Delta Episode between 77 - 80 hours.
Also I'm European so I had the game a week later... /sadface
[Lord Summerisle:] "Now, those children out there, they're jumping through the flames in the hope that the god of the fire will make them fruitful. Really, you can't blame them. After all, what girl would not prefer the child of a god to that of some acne-scarred artisan?"

[Sergeant Howie:] "And you encourage them in this?"

[Lord Summerisle:]"Actively! It's most important to teach new generation born of Summerisle be made aware that here the old gods aren't dead."

[Sergeant Howie:]"And what of the true God? To whose glory churches and monasteries have been built on these islands for generations past? Now what of Him?"

[Lord Summerisle:]"Oh, He's dead. He can't complain. He had his chance and in modern parlance. Blew it."

[Lord Summerisle:]“And the ministers fled the island never to return. What my grandfather started out of expediency, my father continued out of love. He brought me up the same way: to reverence the music, and the drama, and the rituals of the old gods; to love nature and to fear it, and to rely on it and to appease it when necessary. He brought me up —”

[Sergeant Howie:]“He brought you up to be a pagan!”

[Lord Summerisle:]“A heathen, conceivably, but not, I hope, an unenlightened one.”

I had been playing it every day since its release, but I guess I got bored of it at some point and took almost a week-long break from it. I finally started playing it again, participating in contests and working on my 'dex a little, when I stumbled upon a Shiny Diglett. That got me in the mood for Shiny-hunting again. After several failed attempts of DexNav chaining and horde encounters, I decided to go back to X to MM some.

So far I've logged 98 hours and 51 minutes.

16 hours for the main story plus an additional 2 for the Delta Episode, then I restarted the game, which is about the same playtime I had for my original runthrough of Ruby

My longest playtime for a pokemon game was my Heartgold, with over 100 hours

89:47 as of this post. Took me about 35 to beat the story since I took it easy and tinkered around the region for hours on end, kind of surprised people rushed through everything in just 16-20 hours or so. That playtime will increase a lot over the next few months. :D

Im at 18.07 hours (subtract 1 hour off because sometimes I just leave my DS running) and I'm not even on my 4th badge yet. When I bought the game I was still in classes + had finals a few weeks later so I couldn't play it very much. But even now that I'm out of school I'm still taking my time. I hate after you beat a game and then you sit there afterwards like "now what?" so I'm savouring every moment.

I am suddenly embarrassed to admit to the- give or take- 170 hours I logged in. Though most of that is being spent collecting eggs from the day care (and hatching them) while I multitask...so. um. yes.

I'm at 109:54.

I didn't beat the game until about ~80 hours in because I was taking it sooo slow, and post-game I've been doing a lot of Secret Base flag collecting and decorating, I've got a couple Pokémon fully Mastered in all contest ranks, and the Battle Resort, etc., etc.

I've gotta say this game's post-game is pretty decent, especially with Delta Episode and the Mirage Spots and pretty much everything else haha.

I'm sitting at 3:15 right now. I really want to get into Alpha Sapphire, but I just haven't had the time this past month, between working almost non-stop and moving to a new house. The next day I get a day off with zero plans, I'll probably double my current playtime at the bare minimum.

15:26 as of right now. I haven't finished the game yet. I've only met Aarune actually, haha. I've been screwing around a lot, trying to get gold crowns, etc. I spent like 3-4 hours breeding Ralts because I wanted a male one with a Jolly nature. Also spent like 2 hours trying to find a Jolly Zubat in Granite Cave. That wasn't fun at all.

Yeah, I'm kind of a nerd.

My total playtime is 32:03.
I beat Steven on November 25th at night but don't remember the playtime. I beat the Delta Episode the next day (26th) in the afternoon. I haven't touched the game for awhile. I got bored catching the Legendary Pokemon and I did all of my breeding in Pokemon Y so now I just have to wait for my friend to come over so I can trade all of my Pokemon and items over to Alpha Sapphire so I can continue my online battling.

I've owned the game since release day, but the past month or so has been hell on my schedule. Little to no free time. :( Thank God for Christmas break. I'm going locking myself in my room and binge on Pokemon and Dragon Age all break.

I've got quite a lot of time, usually because I've been playing and at the same time, working on other things. 19:43 I believe is where I'm at, and I'm currently in the Seafloor Cavern.
