Should I get silver since I had silver before, or should I change to gold now? Also, will my silver cart still have data on it or will the battery have died inside the cart?

I wanna be the very best
Like noone ever was
To catch them is my real test
To train them is my cause
I will travel across the land
Searching far and wide
Each Pokemon to understand
The power that's inside
Pokemon!
It's you and me
I know it's my destiny
Pokemon!
Ooh, you're my best friend
In a world we must defend
Pokemon!
Our hearts so true
Our courage will pull us through
You teach me and I'll teach you
Pokemon
Gotta catch 'em all!

My kidergarten to grade 3 years summed up just like that.

Damn. If you want to make a 22 year old feel actuall old this is how. To those that are older, you have my condolences.

I'm surprised, that with such a large market, the numbers were that close together. 723,000 to 720,000? Personally, I don't know which one I would've gone with. I like Soul's cover, but the Heart version appeals to me a lot to. Which one would you guys get?

I'm getting soul silver day one. G/S/C are by far the best in the series.

Okay, as an ex-pokemon finatic (about five years ago, the last pokemon game I got was Ruby), and having vowed never to play Pokemon again, I may just have to pick this up. It was by far the best, I played this one every da like crazy, I had about 50 level 100's and 2 shinies excluding red gyrados (that might have been Ruby, I don't remember). If/when this comes out in the US, I will pick it up on day one dispite the risk of losing all social status I have gained throughout my High School years.

Uber excited.

If HG/SS have all the same tweaks as Platinum plus more, there is no doubt that these are the greatest Pokemon games of all time.



Until the next version, of course.

Hey, does that mean you could catch every Pokémon except for the special event ones? I decided to accomplish my childhood goal of doing that since I stopped playing after Crystal. I have Diamond and Sapphire, I've read that I need all the DS and the GBA versions in order to do it.

PS: Silver was awesome but I think it's tied with Crystal for the best Pokémon game ever.

Ok, so I just grabbed a DSi, since I found a site that had a good enough deal to make me actually want it, but I'm curious now. Is the DSi region locked? I remember hearing the original wasn't, but saw something saying the DSi was; and I really want to play this, even if I can't understand it... >_>

Oh, here's a link to the site I mentioned. http://www.gamesncs.com/rd_p?p=191613&t=9528&a=13190-HGSSDSi&c=&gift=29544
