4th Gen Release Date Speculation

[ZestyCactus]

I'm shooting for spring 2010. I just want this game as soon as possible. ;____;

 

[Britney's Circus]

Spring 2010, hopefully. I need to get a DS by then, grrr.

 

[Samme!]

i think there is already a release date speculation thread....
but probably 2010

 

[Brushfire]

Spring 2010 sounds about right. Now I'm just wondering when it'll come out in the UK...

Pokémon Platinum
Japan: September 13th, 2008
USA: March 22nd, 2009
Australia: May 14th, 2009
Europe: May 22nd, 2009

Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver
Japan: September 12th, 2009
USA: March 2010?
Australia: May 2010?
Europe: May 2010?

Seeing as it'll be almost exactly a year between the two games in Japan, we can predict it'll be about the same elsewhere. Obviously it'll vary a bit, but I reckon it's a pretty good guide. :)

lmfao why do people make these REALLY pointless threads :|
its pretty simple, sept '09 for japan, like platinum in '08
so therefore its (quite likely) going to come out in march(ish) '10 in America, like platinum did in '09, and May(ish) for the UK...

I believe there is an easier way, Bulbapedia.

No way, there is even a timer...?
Of course, since the release dates for other countries are yet unknown, that is the Japanese release date.

Holy, am I going nuts or something? I mean to go to the actual pokemon wiki... Now isn't that Illogical?

All I'm saying is that it is common sense. Neg Rep me if you wish.

 

[Alxprit]

Well, that timer's only for the Japanese release. We're mostly focusing on the American release.

Well, yeah, should I add that to my post, you know, in case?
EDIT: Forget it, I already have

 

[Gary the Magic Fairy]

Does ANYONE actually doubt that it will be released in 2010? Seriously?

It's not a rumor, it's common sense. :\

Very good point my dear friend.

 

[Brushfire]

Very good point my dear friend.

I'm gunna seriously laugh if the airdate for US release is pushed back until 2011.
Though, of course, we know Pokémon USA would never let that happen.

That would just make me cry... Dang it, common sense can fail you...

Ah, so threads merged here.

 

[Serene Grace]

It always comes out on the 22nd for us Brits and the rest of Europe.

 

[Sweet Smoochum]

I think there is a chance the games might be out Sunday, March 23rd, 2010 in America. Usually it's out on Sundays in America. (At least it seems that way.) March 23rd is a Sunday. I'm probably wrong, though, but it seems like a pretty good guess.

That was platinum you dont have to speculate that far XD LOL

 

[Kazukii]

Of which month exactly ?

 

[Dragonmaster91]

Of which month exactly ?

I'm guessing April. We Americans are lucky like that, we get them in March. By then I will have a DSi, and Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum. Hooray!

 

[Mew~]

Of which month exactly ?

ignore him hes thinking of platinums release date in the uk and comparing it to heart gold and soul silver but he went a bit far and said 22nd it should at least be in the spring every pokemon rpg ds game has always been released somwhere in spring in the uk

 

[Standard Toaster]

See the thing about pokemon games is that, well you never know. Yes we can all just sit here and speculate, but no one knows for sure. But hey if it does come out in februrary I will be one happy camper :D.
