    Personally, I think that there aren't enough POkemon centers in the US. Most people are hundreds of miles away and can't attend the fun and benificial events they hold. Plus it's an awesome store. I feel jelous about Japan with their Four pokemon centers, and I feel sorry for the people in countries that dont have pokemon centers. What do you think?

    edit: There was supposed to be a poll with this, but something retarded happened that prevented me from putting up the poll, so just put your opinion in a post.

    Your right theres only (That i know of) one in japan somewhere and one in the usa (New York) And that really sucks! :(
     
    Yeah, ditto for Canada. I wish we could have a Pokemon Center here too, though it's not as far from New York as Australia. :P
     
    All Americans be proud you have a Pokemon Centre.
     
    You have no idea what it's like to live in a country as vast as ours...Most of our states are bigger than all European countries...

    I find it odd that Japan is roughly the size of Montana, yet they have four pokemon centers there...surely pokemon is more popular over here than it is in Japan! Even if they made more, I'm stuck out in the country faraway from all major cities. I just plain think it would be smart to make another pokemon center somewhere in America...although personally I'd love it to be in Cincinnati, it would likely be somewhere like Chicago or DC or Denver...
     
    Hmm... you guys are kind of forgetting that Pokemon's popularity is waning. Japan has four Pokemon Centers because it has so many people and Pokemon is still HUGE there. Yes, the US is a big country as well, but the Pokemon Center is a specialty store and in order to build one, there has to be a certain threshold population in the city. (That's also why it was built in New York and not a more central location - because NY is where it would likely get the most business.) There just wouldn't be enough profit from opening another store. o.o Besides, it could be worse, there could be none at all outside of Japan. =\

    Oh, and I can add a poll if you want. What do you want the options to be, "yes" and "no"? ^_^;
     
    I want a Pok?mon Center in Australia. *nods* We don't have one.

    I'll definitely go and visit Australia if there is one there, or anywhere around SE Asia so long as it is not Japan. I doubt I would be able to go there, that's why. (Very ex-)
     
    I know of plans for a hong kong pc and for 3 new pc's in japan and 1 more in dc by the end of the year but that's about it
     
    Yup, definately need many more Pok?mon Centers in the world. If they need to place one in some cities, they could downsize them if popularity isn't high there. They definately need some in other major cities in the US as well as the rest of the world.

    Pok?mon popularity in the US? I dunno, but Pok?mon Colloseum and Pok?mon Ruby and Saphire were massive hits. Colloseum still is one of the best selling games right now and Ruby and Saphire already hit well over 1 million sells.
     
    I said well over 1 million. Also, Pok?mon yellow reached a record 3 million.

    Besides that, the show was ranked number 1 AGAIN recently!
     
    Well over 1 million where? Just in the United States as a whole? That's not enough for a specialty store like that. You need a BIG fanbase in order to support a store like that. As in... 1 million fans in the city alone. Otherwise, it won't work out. =\
