    I'm waiting to see the version exclusives before making my final decision. Unfortunately, the way things are going to go, I'm going to have to buy both in order to have a "complete" (barring whatever event Pokemon NOA thinks of) Pokedex, since it's a whole new generation and I tend to have a lack of Wi-Fi.

    Besides, it'll be great to explore the game without messing up the main save file.

  • It depends on the version exclusives, because I mainly choose which game to get because the game has my favourite Pokemon in it. (Or the Pokemon looks more awesome) :3

    ...Or I could just wait for Gray, if my lack of patience holds out for a year. >.<

  • I'll have to choose after I learn more about the version exclusives (legendaries, appearing Pkmn, Plot changes(?) )... But right now I'm pointing towards White. I guess it fits my personality better ^^"

    At this point I'm undecided. Yes, Black does sound better since the name has that appeal to it, but I'm going to wait till all the new Pokemon come out. Then I'll pick based on which game features the Pokemon I like best.

  • im going to get white because most people get black. I dont think i will get the third version, as i have never gotten the third version, except for Platinum, but that was only because i lost Diamond ^^; If the third has a lot of changes, i might consider it.

    Oh yeah i honestly think the third version will be called Hispanic.

    Wow, black has almost double white's votes. I really thought that white would be more popular. I'm sure some people will change their versions once the cover art is revealed.

  • TBA: Black. It may or may not change.

    But I don't actually always go for the 1st/2nd version as some people do in each gen, mine's kinda random(-ish). Blue, Silver, Ruby, FireRed, Diamond etc. etc. etc.

  • I'm going with Black,it was always my ideal shade. i don't mind having both of them though,but like I said,it's most likely Black because it's my preference.

  • I was going to get Black, but my roommate called it, so now I'm getting White..
    This means that, once again, by sheer coincidence, I will be getting the secondary version..its been like this since Blue..am I forever destined to get the secondary version?!

  • Definitely importing Black in Japanese. Going to get both in English, like I did with HGSS, though.

    I'll get black, White would be lame :P

    Maybe for the plot you could play as dark side if you have black and you could be on good side if you play white.
