I'm gonna get SoulSilver purely for nostalgia reasons. The first second generation game I got was Silver, and I would rather have Lugia first.

I'll be getting HeartGold, since the GameBoy Color version of Gold brought me back into liking Pokémon so I would want the newer version of that.

HeartGold, for two reasons. One, I have Silver Version but not Gold, and two, I hear HeartGold has Groudon and I have Sapphire and not Ruby. I'll probably get both though for the preorder gifts.

Soul Silver I may get in Japanese, because I think Silver is cooler than Gold. Odd reason, but it works.

Nah, that can't be true.

I got Soul Silver on my DS Flashcart (uh oh, Imma bad guy), and it's really awesome. If only I had the legit cart, I'd be able to use it in the tourney.

If you still have said Gold cartridge the battery that saves the data can be replaced.

True, but those things are hard to come by now-a-days.

But on topic, I would choose Soul Silver because (im not joking) i was lost in the original game (Darn my tiny brain then) and i want to play the game as close as possible to the original game...
basically i want revenge on myself

That would be much too tedious for me.

I am also surprised at how the poll is nearly tied, it seems like most of the people I talk to say that they will get HG.
