Two people who went to Gamestop for placing pre-orders of Pokémon Black & White were told that the games would be released on Friday April 22nd, 2011 in America, at a price of $40. It's interesting to note that the release date mentioned is the same as Pokémon Diamond and Pearl's, so it's most likely just a guess based around that. Also, the main Pokémon games are usually released on Sundays, which means that this is probably not the exact release date. However, it still gives us a good clue about the period within which the games will be released in America.

We have to wait that long, huh? Crud. Instead of making us wait until spring, I wish they'd just release it around Christmas time. That way I'd actually be able to get something other than boring stuff like clothes and other "make life easier" junk. I want TOYS inside the presents, darn it! 
It's gonna be hard to avoid spoilers that long, too.
I was hoping it'd be in March; it be in line with Pt/HG/SS and it'd make it much easier for me to get it before my brother's birthday on April 16th.
I'm eyeing this suspiciously for the time being until definitive proof of a release date is revealed (e.g. an official statement from Nintendo or Gamestop).

I somewhat doubt April, unless Nintendo is gonna keep doing DS games after the 3DS release or something.

I strongly urge you to compare the NA release of Pokémon Crystal to the GBA and the NA release of Pokémon Emerald to the NDS... they'd be breaking tradition not to release after the 3DS.
That said, the third release will most likely be for the 3DS (...anyone else brought the awesomeness of that up?) or won't happen at all. |
Considering the 3DS will be released in early March, I find it unlikely that Black and White, such huge games, would be released more than a month after the system that makes them inferior.
Though that's just my two cents. It's still entirely possible, and I'd still sure as heck buy them

a) The third game isn't confirmed to have a name.
b) It certainly won't be "Gray" anyway, but rather the properly spelling. c) ...Did you read the first part of my post? |

Ah, I see...pretty weird, even though you'd think that Pt. would take it's spot instead of B/W.

As long as Serebii didn't confirm yet, nor Pokébeach did, there is no solid proof about it. I really hope it is is in March or early April. I want to buy these games and play them, not buy these games and go to my exams. :\

)Gamestop tends to keep "placeholder dates" for game releases, which are then modified later to fit the actual release date. While they could be right on this one, it`s not quite confirmation, so I suppose we`ll just have to wait until more information about the games from TPCI is released.
