it's fine I preordered it with free shop ay lamo

Waiting to see if Starter evolutions really do have different forms depending on game. If not, then I'm going with Sun.

>>28777562
I pre-ordered it.
I can always cancel if the games turn out to be shit, games will leak via one of early copies, demo, or China, so I'll have time to cancel.

I don't need to pre-order. I will buy it on release day, it's not like they won't have enough copies.

>>28777562

No game is worth, me preordering.

>>28778271

>>28777562
can't justify pre-ordering another pokemon game after the veritable disaster that was ORAS

boring as shit I couldn't even get to the E4 because I just wasn't interested enough.

maybe I'll buy it when the price goes down but its definitely gonna get pirated in the meantime if it's even worth that.

If your 3ds breaks you cant play pokemon until its replaced same as with digital since its linked to your account... Is this some high tier bait or something?

No need to preorder. I will be at the midnight release at the nyc nintendo store.

Hundreds of people went to the X/Y release and I bought both even though I showed up relatively late.

Not going to do it, no store here will give a bonus or special edition.
I did it with X, because at least that time they gave random figurines and I got Espeon and Umbreon

>>28779954
Anon's point is that you don't lose your save file, since data isn't stored onto the 3DS like digital, it's stored onto the cartridge. The only stored data onto the 3DS concerning Pokemon is firmware updates.

Nintendo has a nice DRM policy where games and accounts can only be accessed on one console, one Wii u and one 3DS. So if you lose either of them you are fucked unless you can fight them to get it back by proving you own it.

>>28777562
>he preorder games

>>28777562
>pre-ordering
>when you can just walk into a store and buy it right there when it's out

>>28779996
Completely irrelevant since save data is on the SD card and can be backed up endlessly. Whether you pirate or buy a hard copy you're not at any more risk of losing your save data. Only possible risk is buying digital and losing the NNID.

Why would I pirate when it means that I'll get kicked out of Nationals?

what preorder bonuses are there?

>>28779208
It's really fucking easy to back up your save file these days, mate. Hardly a concern anymore.

Pokémon is the only game franchise where I'm guaranteed to own every single new game as soon as it comes out.

I don't preorder, as a rule of thumb, but I make exceptions for Pokémon.

but OP, I still don't know what version I'm buying

>>28780561
This. Even if it's shit I know I'm going to buy it day 1, along with the next gimmick $300 handheld I'll need to play it.

>tfw have like 3 or maybe 4 3DS hacked but I want the physical special snowflake edition with the figure and metallic box

Maybe I'll pre-order one just today as I'm getting my salary in two hours.

I don't see what the problem is when all you want is the game. At that point, the bonuses are literally just bonuses you bought for $5.

There was a time I basically robbed my local gamestop out of several physical pre-order bonuses by doing this by only shelling out $5 to get what would otherwise be a $60 investment. They've since wised up on the physical aspect of things, but w/e.

I buy all my 3DS games digital cause I live in the Eastern Caribbean and I don't wanna:

A. Wait for it to hit stores here
B. Pay more than its worth in retail and taxes
C. Pay ridiculous duties to import.

I think a 3DS here is at least $700 in our currency. A game would retail between 150-200. Fuck that. Digital has been a godsend.

>>28782394
You don't deserve to play games if you're poor anyway. Should be more worried about surviving your daily shitty poorfag life. Don't give shit excuses. If you can't pay 200 bucks on a great game to support Nintendo and GameFreak then go spend all on your bananas, third world faggot.

>>28780333
>Thinking that "PREORDERS ARE BAD" is bullshit
There is nothing good with preordering unless you live in a third-world country where the supply is so limited there isn't enough copies for everyone

In many occasions the preorderered goods hit my home one day before release day, even just that makes it worthwhile imo.

good goy

Not hyped enough to preorder. I'll get it within the year when I get bored of the games I have

I can't remember the last time a game has actually been out of stock when I wanted it but I suspect it was in the 90s

>>28777562
Pokemon games are the only games I pre-order at gamestop strictly for the purpose of seeing all the people who didn't pre-order and throw tantrums in the shop when unreserved copies run out

it's almost always adults who do it too

can i pre-order it digitally? will sun/moon have pre-load?

Reminder to fellow europeans that you have a chance of getting the game earlier than the 23rd if you preorder at a store and be nice to the exployee.

>>28782896
You clearly haven't tried to get a hold of Atlus games that aren't Persona.

Hell, I think I got the only copy of DQ7 and SMT4A at the gamestop I go to. They didn't even bother to order extras past my preorder.
