Due to the huge range of time zones, please use Eastern time, so no earlier than midnight for posting the next number (9:00 PM PDT). (Using times like GMT are pointless because the game isn't being released there on the same date.)

9 days

Yep. Fun! Fun! Fun! Too bad no new pokemon unlike platinum (Giratina and Shaymin. lol) But, I'm more curious how 5th gen will turn out. Well, Pokemon FTW! And this little dude also.

I can't wait till I get to have TOTODILE. *Gets pokemon outfit ready to go to ebgames.

Totodile? You seem to be forgetting the BEST starter!

Honestly!

Lets not turn this into a *Pokemon* is the best starter thread. This is for counting down the release of HGSS (which is also my birthday).

Next week is going to feel so long because of this.

I had the same experence with platinum.

In my country, it is only 7 days left!

I will get it earlier than you you guys.

I still need to get Jirachi before it comes out!

._.

Ahem...

Not really Cat, as I contacted the store I am going to buy from, and the manager told me that on the morning of March 14th in my country the games will be released, which is 9~12 hours ahead of you.

I am going to get the games easlier than you guys!

Sunday ads are filled with advertisements for HG/SS
the question is, should I go for a release party at Toys R Us, Get a 5$ gift card at Target, or use my 20$ gift card at best buy (which I would like to save), or just not get it?

choices, choices, choices...

I'm going to go out on the morning of March 1th, and if GameStop is out, there's a Target and Best Buy in the same parking lot.

Then if they're out at all 3 of those stores (unlikely?), I'll cross the highway to Wal-Mart.

Close stores = WIN

Why didn't any of you people preorder your copies? Lazy bums. I've had my reservations since last year. It'll just be a matter of me going to GameStop to pick them up, go home, record the unboxing, then upload the unboxing, and get started on my Let's Play.

I pre-ordered mine before a week of now. My game is already saved!

6 days left...

The Spirit of Time used Brag!

It wasn't very effective...

Same here, pre-ordered. Also can't wait for my Ho-Oh figurine.

I pre-ordered mine, but it's of little use because it was on Amazon.com ;(

I made sure to pay for shipping though, to make sure it gets here ASAP!

got my Game reserved. lucky I did too.
Target was completely out of reservation thingies, and Best Buy had 4 left. xD
All of which were HG. I wanted SS, but I took what I could get.

Got a cute little ho-oh figurine too.
All over the figurine bag it says: "this product complies with all applicable consumer safety laws and.."
Aww crap, cut my finger on it's claw.

Seriously though, those things are sharp. O.o

Tee hee weren't you the one who didn't know whether to buy SS in the first place? I guess having cold feet left you in the snow.

5 days

(Hey, I'm not the only one doing this!)

I'll be sure to update tommarow then since I'm the first one on this site everyday, unless cat is up until five.

3.375 days for 3 PM central time!!!

Right at the point of my post, it will be 3 days, 7 hours, 10 minutes, and about 30 seconds until HG/SS comes out.

3 days!

There's about 2 days and 7 hours left for the release of HG/SS over here!

^ HAX! It's 2 days and 9 hours here, and you posted 7 hours before me... ;_;

So you're under 2 days, I guess. Nice.

I need to call to find out the earliest time I'll be able to pick the game up at. Anyone know? (It's GameStop, by the way.)

IDK the earliest time...I ain't stressing myself over it. I got my reservation, they'll have a game for me.
I'll just get there when I can.
BTW, sometime inbetween 2-3 days here. (thank you captain obvious)

In the US EST, there's currently...
