5th Gen The Language Barrier for those who have pre-ordered Pokemon Black/White.

[austin00081]

For those of us who have pre-ordered either Pkmn Black/White, and don't know Japanese; do you think there will be moments when we have no clue what to do next? I'm afraid that this game may have some sort of tricky new obstacles that I wont be able to get past.
Will the game be translated and posted on the internet?
A walkthrough would be nice. :D

Also, after I pre-ordered my copy of Pokemon Black, I got an email from play-asia saying that this game wont work on an English DSi, but will work on a DS or DS lite. :/ Apparently the DSi is region locked, or something or another.

lol There will definitely be parts where I'm totally lost, but I'm sure by the time I get to it, since I play really slow, someone would have posted a guide of some sort. xD
Plus I've played enough Pokemon that I should be fine for the most part. I hope.

That's what I like most about getting the Japanese games. Being completely lost. It makes the game more interesting.

The only reason why I didn't pre-order it this time is because I only have a DSi so I can't play it. If you're wondering why, it's because it's region locked, but only for the DSi.

... this has no point. Of course the games will be confusing without knowing Japanese. Plus, users will start asking why they're region locked, or posting that they preordered the English or Japanese version, which we already have a thread on.

We'll have a translations/help thread up when the games are released to help those with difficulty in understanding Japanese, though, just so you know (as in, users helping eachother).
