    Im going to gamestop today to reserve both black and white. Is anyone else preordering this early? How much are you putting down?

    I am putting the minimum requirement down and paying them off each week or so. I am also going to buy the guide WITH the game. When that is paid off I am putting down for a third one, either white or black for my friends 21st birthday. I didnt buy three for heart gold and soul silver and it made me very sad to know I dont own heart gold.

    As i am paying off the games $10 a week, i am saving to buy gold, crystal, heartgold, fire red, leaf green, ruby and emerald. I guess after that i should look for japanese red and blue My pokemon collection must be complete no?

    anyways im out to go preorder
     
    You can already pre-order? I usually wait, pre-ordering too early to me just makes me want the game even more. I probably won't pre-order mine until January.
     
    Wow, you can already pre-order? Looks like that's what I'm doing right now! Do we get anything for pre-ordering in advance!
     
    I'll consider it if it's really worth it. I got so mad when I realized wal-mart had a hg/ss bundle that came with the figurine and even a pokewalker skin and I got up at the crack of dawn to go get my copy of ss from gamestop, and just a few days before I heard about the bundle I bought a copy of hg. After that I'm going to be more cautious about how I approach buying the games.
     
    I will wait until they are available on Play Asia and pre order there. I agree Tanaki I may reserve my english one at Wal Mart this time.
     
    Cool! I might try tomorrow or maybe even today. Don't you get like a special pokemon too or something?
    We don't know yet but we got Stylus for DP, A Giratina figure for Platinum, A Ho-Oh or Lugia figure for HGSS and a Arceus figure came with some TCG stuff and was given out at Gstop for free.

    Maybe we'll get Reshiram or Zekrom figurines. Or maybe special styluses.
     
    I didn't like the Stylus as the tip and the small figure on top broke very easily.
     
    I'm not reserving Black/White yet. Reserving a game tends to make me even more excited about a game than I want to be.

    Then again, I may not even buy Black/White. I think I might wait for Gray, or Clear or whatever to come out and buy that.
     
    Where I live there arnt really anyone waiting in line. So im like the ONLY one there when it opens and everyone looks at me weird.

    0.0 I think i was the first in my area to preorder.

    Either way i preordered the pokedex 3, both games and eventually i will preorder one or two more of the games and the guide

    I have months so i pay off as i go, ya know $5 a game a week. It pays off slowly but i still get it all paid off by the time i am done.

    I just need to decide who gets my extras....

    I just bought SS then the HG Bundle...

    I don't think I can preorder this early... Plus I live in NC no one else around will really get it I don't have to worry about them running out... I'll preorder if it comes with an event I guess haha or something cool like a discount on the guide (never got the guide for HGSS xD)
     
    i have already preordered them both of the games. i plan on buying the guide with them when i pick them up. i cant wait until they are released
     
    Pre-ordered mine the other day. The guy that works there knows I love Pokemon and made sure to tell me they could be pre-ordered. :P

    I just put down the minimum $5. I'm sure we'll be seeing figurines with pre-orders, or something else at least.
     
    Like I did with HeartGold and SoulSilver altogether, I'll pre-order both Black and White a month prior to its release date. I don't see the need to rush and pre-order this early when it's anticipated for a Spring 2011 release here in the US.
