    I shall be getting both on release, although it'll probably be several months before I get around to Shining Pearl. But I want those figurines and buying them separately would probably cost me far more than it should, so...

    ...and if I don't get them on day of release there is going to be hell to pay, I don't pay for tracked delivery to wait until the following Monday or later to get my games >.>

  • I preordered Shining Pearl on my Switch bc I had a giftcard. I went with Pearl bc I feel like everyone is going with Diamond.

    I'll eventually get both. But I'll probably grab Brilliant Diamond on release only because I originally had Diamond back in 4th gen when they D/P were new.

  • I'm considering it this time. Thinking of redeeming some of my Instant Gift card perks on Swagbucks a week before the games release so I can buy them on the day of release. I get five instant gift cards a month, so I might just use some so I can buy the games earlier than I usually do.

    Waiting to see how much budget looks like when they release, but I'm leaning towards no. I usually prefer to wait for discounts (even though Nintendo first party games barely ever get any...) unless I really, really like the franchise or have a lot of faith in the performance of the game, and after the most recent Pokemon games I'm a little skeptical.

  • Probably not, but I will DEFINITELY be getting it early enough to get the Manaphy.

  • I already preordered BD since I played Diamond back in the day.
    I'll buy SP when someone sells them at second-hand price just to play the Pearl side.

    I am considering it this time. It would be the first time I do this for a Pokemon game.

    When it comes to Pokemon games my friend and I always do pre orders and then stay up all night to play them.
