I won't get my game until late next week or the week after but I'm fine with that I guess, unless I change my shipping, which I might. I did deposit a check the other day...

I'm in the US but the estimated delivery date is between October 12th and October 16th. But you never know, I actually got White like 4 or 5 days sooner than it said I would last year.

[Andrew Shard]

I'm from europe (portugal) so White 2 and Black 2 are only out 12th October ^_^ However I might only get it in christmas 'cause of school and 'cause I am gathering money for my finalist travel do ANDORRA SUMOL SNOW TRIP

[s2daam]

I'm from the UK and Sainsbury's emailed me earlier saying my order had been dispatched. It's strange seeming the UK release date isn't until the 11th, so this surely is way too early? Not that I'm complaining of course!

Perfect timing. My black and white 2 changed to shipping soon on amazon so here is hoping they come on tuesday =D

Why did you get it on Amazon when you can just go to the store and get it earlier? Is the price lower? I don't understand.

I'm getting it tomorrow so I can play all day Sunday and all day Monday.

I got Diamond and Black early. It's honestly not that difficult if you go to a store that doesn't give a **** (like Wal-Mart or a small business). Ignorant teenage workers is a big plus.

Ive been to stores like GameStop with ignorant Adult worker's, is that a big plus also? lolololool

Well I would get it at gamestop but it's pretty far away, also I got the originals at gamestop last year the first day and the line was out the door >.>, I don't drive, and my parents and I are going out of town tomorrow so I wouldn't be able to get it tomorrow anyways.

Ah man, I wouldn't be able to wait. I got 2 Gamestops that are like 2 minutes away. A Walmart in the same parking lot as one Gamestop, a best buy across the street from the other Gamestop, and a Toys R Us right next to the best buy. And my older brother drives me to them. Last year when I bought B/W at Gamestop there wasn't even a line. Pokemon must be popular in your area than.

Depending on where you live (the US in my case), some states don't have sales tax on Amazon. And you can get fairly cheap shipping. I think my order is only $36.xx on Amazon with shipping applied.

I saved a couple of dollars. Also I don't have a car and I can't use my parents' cars so yeah I do it online.

Can't wait for tomorrow. Preordered a copy of White 2 and my Game Stop opens at 10 AM (I do remember them opening at 9 for HGSS & BW, so it is unfortunate that they don't seem to be doing it for B2W2 as well). When I got White, I remember seeing quite a few people on line for BW (the line wasn't the longest though) and I left my house right when it opened.

Since I have off on Monday from school, I'll be able to play all day Sunday and all day Monday (better make sure all my homework is done).

Why is Masuda going to be on Pokemon Smash today/tomorrow?

He's doing a battle lecture...nothing more

Ah man, I wouldn't be able to wait. I got 2 Gamestops that are like 2 minutes away. A Walmart in the same parking lot as one Gamestop, a best buy across the street from the other Gamestop, and a Toys R Us right next to the best buy. And my older brother drives me to them. Last year when I bought B/W at Gamestop there wasn't even a line. Pokemon must be popular in your area than.

I moved since then so I don't know how popular pokemon is here yet.

Black/white 2 comes out tomorrow...I'm so psyched! man, i can't wait to see what kind of stuff they have that wasn't included in the predecessors, like being able to rematch trainers and gym leaders and a larger Battle subway and whatnot...

You can't actually do this...

Well don't get your hopes up.

[Shine]

well technically you CAN rematch the leaders....just not in their Gym and not using the usual battle rules, but with the "Battle" facility rules instead.

[crystalzapdos]

leaked into some stores already

I just saw a copy of White 2 at my local Target. I didn't get it since I already pre-ordered at Gamestop.

Err, your gonna be kind of disappointed.

Better this way as the AI is much higher

[ebevan91]

Just tracked my White 2 order and the estimated delivery date is the 13th BUT... it's saying that it's at the post office that's like 5 miles away from me. They better deliver my game tomorrow or Tuesday or I'm gonna be pissed.

[*IZ*]

These games seem really popular. I got the last White 2 at best buy and I heard the lines at Gamestop were pretty big.

[Hydrohs]

I got to the Gamestop where I preordered my copy before they opened since I had to wait in line for 45 minutes when B/W came out and didn't want to do it again. I was the only one there, I was that guy.

[spyroflame0487]

I was the 2nd in line, hardly anyone at my TRU.

Anyways, I decided to try out DW here with White 2. One of the first games I got to play was to my surprise- the drink serving game! It's renamed to "The Bistro" but you do the exact same thing as the one in Japan.

Unlike that one though, it appeared in the Cave area, and I got an Snover. ("It looks like this Pokemon is thirsty")
