BTW I got ripped off my stylus, I guess they ran out or something. :/

If you preordered, they should have one for you, but who knows. I didn't think they were handing them out until tomorrow, though...

omg. i can't wait!!! tomorrow! woo!! it will be an exciting/busy day at work because not only does pokemon come out, but we will have 36 wii consoles! wahoooo.

i still can't decide if i am getting diamond or peal... :/

I'm picking up Diamond tomorrow, but I don't have a DS yet. oh well.

Not very impressed with the starting Pokemon or their move sets. Empoleon has a great type mix but his move sets suck.

Yeah they aren't giving them out until tomorrow but when he gave me my receipt he told me that they had run out of them.

Just a heads up guys. Certain stores are doing a 8AM opening for Pokemon. You should have gotten a call about it if your store is doing so.

I didn't preorder. Think I have a reasonable chance of getting a copy tomorrow anyhow? I would imagine that most stores are getting a truckload of copies because of the demand, a la FF12.

Dont worry about it dude. I doubt they will send limited supply. Even if its sold out at one of the stores, Im sure another store would have it. I would tell you to be looking for them like at noon though, just to be safe.

Going to my EB straight after work to pick up both games. I should make it right before the EB opens.

Anyone know how EB is going to hand out the stylus+bonus for people who pre-ordered both? Im going early only because I dont want them to run out of either but if Im garunteed one, I really would like some sleep.

Any info?

I just got back from the midnight launch at Gamestop. I got Pearl and my brother got Diamond. Oh and I managed to get my stylus.

How did the pre-order bonuses work? Did they have them set aside for each pre-order or was it first come, first serve?

Just go to Target or something. I plan to do so pretty soon here.

DragTheCigaretteKing · 04-22-2007, 10:22 AM

Im going a little later, i wouldve gone this morning but my gramps literally went missing at 2 am

Eggman · 04-22-2007, 10:41 AM

Target had preorders only which was lame. Best Buy had a ton of them sitting out on the shelves though. And they had Wiis. That people were buying all of.
