Pokemon X/Y -- Where do you plan to Pre-Order it from?
« on: July 26, 2013, 08:34:39 PM »
Just a simple Poll, mostly because I'm one of those people who I'm not sure where I should pre-order it from... I was hoping GameStop might have a promotion for pre-orders but I don't see anything on the site nor have I heard word of anything :cry:

So Just kind of curious to see where people will be pre-ordering and all XD My big debates is between Gamestop and Wal-mart... but seems Gamestop has the release on Oct. 12 while Wal-mart's is Oct. 30th (I know that's just Wal-mart's guesstimate time as Wal-mart does tend to not get things on the right dates e.e and a global release seems Farfetch'd for them to do on a timely bases)

Hehe, I see what you did there at the end. ;D (that's my favorite bird Pokemon!!)

I usually don't pre-order games unless there is a special pre-order bonus for it. I'm trying to wait until September to decide, since sometimes that's when pre-order bonuses appear. 
If I had to choose, I'd likely go with GameStop, as much as I dislike shopping there.  I had a bad experience trying to get White 2 from Walmart on release day since they said the game wouldn't come in until tomorrow (even though they had signs on the game display case saying it would come out that day). xD At least GameStop is pretty much a guarantee they'll have it Day 1. 
Thank you so much for the adoptable, Corona! :D

Getting mine from Gamestop, just because they are cool people. If I stilled worked at walmart, I would get it there for the employee discount.

getting Y, my reasoning, some think it is rather strange..
I was thinking chromosomes:
XX = Female
XY = Male

I'm thinking Gamestop or Toys R Us. I usually pre-order my games from Gamestop but TRU is easier to get to. I'm gonna see if there are any preorder bonuses before I put my money down.

@MilkyTaroMochi -- Hehe yeah I couldn't resist XD After all I started typing that last sentence and started to add "farfetched"  but then the pokemon came to mind XD

I might go with Gamestop myself, we have about 3 branches of it here... one is actually in the mall called Babbage's (I think it's still called that at least) Which is still Gamestop XD. I'd only go to one of the branches because they went out of their way to get me a game that was in another part of the state and were not sure if they could ship it from one store to another, but they were able to (plus apparently they didn't want to disappoint a customer :P)

Already got our tickets for pre-order from the local TRU.  They've been phenomenal to us with regards to pre-orders and other stuff, we always get treated well with our video games.  Other places might sell for a bit less, but TRU makes me happy. :frolic:

I'm holding firm for X, my son's less happy about taking Y... but I can't say no to a deer legendary! ^.^

I'm not sure if I'm getting it yet. I've been playing since Pokemon Red and even though little changes are made, Pokemon games just all feel the same to me now. =x What I need to do is read more about it to decide.

I'm likely going to pre-order at Gamestop, so that's what I voted for.

I'm VERY tempted to go to Wal-Mart to get it at midnight. Or do you guys think GS may have a midnight release party for this game?

The latter games they do add more things to do but yes the core of the game is still the same

I pre-ordered from GameStop because it's a block from my apartment, and I do all of my pre-orders there.  I was there with a friend, yesterday, and there was a promo pre-order poster for it.  I opted out (not nearly as big a Pokemon fan as the friend I was with).

If there is a preorder bonus somewhere I would preorder for that xD I might preorder off of Amazon and just wait for them to ship it to me xD
