This release date was previously leaked for a short while by CVG, a site that has previously reported on eventually true rumors.

:D

But, it wasn't cofirmed, so it might get pushed earlier or later. But still,

:D

*blink*

Well dang it. I'm not going to have it before the band trip. I hope it gets pushed up.

But still...It's nice to know we finally have a release date! Something to look forward to!
 
Re: Possible Release Date for B/W

I saw a date at GameStop for the 2nd of April. Both are likely a filler for GS to promote pre-ordering.

Lately, the games have been released in late march (and it usually coincides with my birthday)
 
Re: Possible Release Date for B/W

Yay.

I hope its true.

You know how many 'official' release dates people claimed to have made for HG/SS/P
 
Re: Possible Release Date for B/W

I read somewhere that the official release date for them is April 24th. How much it has already changed.
 
Re: Possible Release Date for B/W

That means it won't be in Europe for my birthday. D:

This ruins everything. D=<
 
Re: Possible Release Date for B/W

It is in fact the 6th. Which means I can get it before my birthday (about 3 weeks before).
 
Re: Possible Release Date for B/W

oh, I just noticed that the EU release date is two days before the US. this seems to be part of an overall trend of bringing forward EU releases: we got HG/SS only two weeks after the Americans did (by way of comparison, it took two months between US and EU releases for Platinum). perhaps this means that other games companies will stop shitting on the European market as much as they've done in the past?

edit: and, conveniently, my 18th birthday is ten days after the release date. I've not been following B/W news much, but for nostalgia's sake I sure as hell am buying this game. :D

NA and Europe are run by the same Nintendo now.
 
Re: Possible Release Date for B/W

Can we pre-order online to pic up in store, or do we have to go to the store to do that? I need to pre-order Black.
 
Re: Possible Release Date for B/W

I did it in store, but you might be able to do it online. The Gamestop I was at had this huge display for it and everything, so.
 
Re: Possible Release Date for B/W

Me and my friend pre-ordered copies on Friday.

Right after pre-ordering we were promptly asked by the lady working there if we knew that we could bring our DSes and pick up Entei. We pulled out our DSes and went "Yes, that's what we were here for."

If Gamestop/other stores don't have online pre-orders, you can always pre-order on Amazon and have to choose between exorbitant shipping and waiting a week to get it.
