I'm going for Alpha Sapphire first just because <3 Kyorge! And I maybe will get the other version too I haven't decided about that yet. I know for sure that some of my friends will get OR so I'm able to get all "game locked" thingies though I don't even know if there are some XD
 
I'll get Omega Ruby. And I don't see the point in owning both versions when millions of people in the world will get Alpha Sapphire and can trade me the exclusives I want.
 
I never buy both versions of a game because I can't trade with myself >~<

Anyway I am getting Omegle Ruby and not Alphourchan Sapphire because I like Groudon better.
 
Arghh, I can't vote yet...
It LOOKS as if i'll get Omega Ruby (mainly because of Latios, as unless the Eon Ticket distribution goes to Wi-Fi, i doubt i'll get one)

but yeah, I guess Groudon better >_<
 
Actually we can trade with ourself with the pokebank, just not with items.
 
I pre-ordered Alpha Sapphire when i picked up the shiny gengar :P it seems fitting since i bought the original sapphire a couple years back on ebay. I cant wait to compare them!

That's not trade, it's transfer. You can't evolve Pokémon using the PokéBank.

...can you?
 
I've got my copy of AlphaSapphire reserved at Gamestop. However! I will end up with both, eventually. Maybe I'll get OmegaRuby for Christmas, too.
 
I'm getting Alpha Sapphire because Sapphire was my first Pokemon game :) Plus, I like Kyogre more and Team Aqua is cooler than Team Magma.

Between watching the trailer for OR/AS and my mate bugging me to jump back on the pokemon band wagon, I bought a 3DS and Pokemon X, with a pre-order of Omega Ruby, as he already owns Y and pre-ordered Sapphire.

I wasn't fussed in which version I got as I never played the original gen 3 (only generation I havent played). But he loved the original sapphire and has almost 700 hours on it. So theres my bit on why I got Ruby
 
Aw, did the thread I make on this die already? Totally didn't notice.

I'm getting Alpha Sapphire! Really love Kyogre as well as the Team Aqua designs (though Magma looks good too), plus I've always found the thunderstorm scene from Sapphire to be more impactful than Ruby's drought. This time around both versions are pretty tempting though. ;c;
 
Alpha Sapphire because I played Sapphire back in the day. I also prefer Kyogre to Groudon...and I prefer Team Aqua to Team Magma.

It's a no brainer really.
 
Omega Ruby for me, with the main reason being that Team Magma is my all-time favourite Pokémon team and I can't wait to get the chance to play a game with them ruling the roost haha :) (Before I only had Emerald so I don't feel particularly nostalgic towards either game, so getting to play this version of Ruby will be all new to me) :) I was kinda leaning towards AS cause Sapphire's my birthstone but at the end of the day, my love for Team Magma and preferring Groudon to Kyogre is stronger lol :)
 
I'm getting Alpha Sapphire, because of all the version differences, I like most of AS's more.

I prefer Kyogre over Groudon, Team Aqua over Team Magma (though from the groups' admins, I like Courtney the most), Lunatone over Solrock, Seviper over Zangoose, and Lotad's line over Seedot's.

Well for me I have already paid for both versions, I will play through both, but I will play through Alpha Sapphire and then after finishing Omega Ruby I will make Sapphire my main game. Only 13 days left, can't wait!
 
Here we go again.
I'm going with Omega Ruby. I like the color of the box more (stupid reason, but this is my favorite color), Omega sounds more awesome to me than Alpha (another dumb reason) and I just simply like Groundon more than Kyogre.
