Diamond or Pearl

[SephYuyX]

Diamond.

[Julian]

some of the appeal is playing online/trading with these games though, why would you want a rom?

We play it on flash carts, meaning we load them onto our DS, so we still get to wifi and everything.

And no, still no rom dumps out yet =( makes me sad checking every morning to find nothing ._.

[Exoduso]

Neither because I forgot to preorder lol... but probably Diamond once they show up in stores again.

heh I do the same thing. Hopefully by Sunday/Monday it will be there.

[Makaze]

Diamond :D

[Kaliden]

I'm getting Diamond since my brother is going to buy Pearl. The polls are 50/50 as of my vote.

[Scythiroth]

Wow, I always thought more people got both versions, I guess I'm insane. ;/

No reason, i'll just trade for the missing ones.

[Julian]

I already got a JP Diamond to transfer all the diamond-only pokemon, and I also went and used surf glitch to get all the legendaries <.< :D

[Kaliden]

Surf glitch? That still works?

[Tricen]

What is the surf glitch?

[Julian]

It was fixed a long time ago, only the first few JP releases of the game has that glitch, don't worry about it.

Basically it lets you go anywhere in the world map, so you can position yourself into the event islands and catch the event-only pokemon.

(if you really want to know how it works, search on youtube for dakrai/shimei vids)

[Exoduso]

What is the surf glitch?

Another glitch involves surfing through a wall in the Elite Four to get to the two special islands to catch certain event Pokémon. They are Darkrai and Sheimi. This is only in the Japanese version and Nintendo will most likely change this glitch in the U.S. version. Nintendo has officially released patches to certain retailers in Japan to rectify these glitches.

Even though I work for Gamestop, i fucking hate how much our damn employees lie to the customers about preorders. If you didnt preorder pokemon you can still get it. My store had 108 preorders, and we're gettin 60 extra copies of diamon, and 45 extra for pearl.

If you show up sunday you'll get one.

[Exoduso]

Heh I didn't even ask, when I went there yesterday to sell my 360 some girl came in and asked if she could reserve Pearl, and the guy told her that they weren't taking any more preorders at the time.

[Maguspk]

Lawl at all the people gimping themselves by getting Diamond.

Too Weak Legendary ftl.

Yeah, we just stopped preorders because we needed enough for walkin customers to be able to compete with other retailers. Places like Target, Best Buy, and Circuit City are either opening up earlier on Sunday or having some type of sale. Not to mention that they will have a shitton more copies.

EB/GS however is retarded and realized that not everyone is hardcore enough to preorder pokemon. So they stopped in order to have enough for people who walk in so they dont buy the games elsewhere.

Same deal at my Gamestop. We had about 175 pre-orders for both games, and got about 100 of each this morning today, so we'll have extras for Sunday.
Im playing my Pearl right now :D

[Xavier]

I'm being forced to get Pearl for myself, since Diamonds are a girls best friend.

[Boyiee]

im not sure which i'll get, probably diamond since pearl only has 1-2 pokemon i really want.
