Alright finally got my code, they are clearly sending them out in waves.

Is there a list of things I need to do to collect everything form this Demo version for the main game?

 

[evilromero]

I got the email! I haven't played a mainline Pokemon since FireRed so I'm excited to really see how the series has evolved.

 

[Diggeh]

No email yet. C'mon guys, I play the TCG Online almost nonstop! Gimmie.

 

[batrush]

Got my code, but I'd rather not spoil the experience when the full version is releasing so soon.

If you're not gonna use it I'd love to have it : )

 

[Hikami]

Well.. wasn't planning on buying this since I already have a ton of other games to get this season but the demo just sold me on it.
The nostalgia is strong.

I got my code from the facebook thing earlier, still haven't gotten the code from the newsletter thing.
I'll be sure to give that away when/if I get one.

 

[ArcaneFreeze]

No code yet :| hopefully it comes soon

 

[Kirlia]

I'm really surprised I got my code so fast. I hope that those of you who haven't gotten it yet get it soon.

When did you opt in for emails from Pokemon.com though?

I didn't even realize I wasn't opted in. Made the change this morning, but I'm not feeling confident that I'll get a code soon (or at all) from that source.

 

[Starwolf_UK]

did you guys see this?
http://www.reddit.com/r/pokemon/comments/2jvezf/data_miners_have_uncovered_the_sound_files_for/
if this is true, ORAS are officially the new main games now

I'm spoilering as this concerns likely post-game material.

There is a data mining thread floating around. Things to bear in mind about the ones the OP said

Spoiler

Doesn't confirm Battle Frontier. Which was feared after a location list didn't have that but had battle resort. If resort is a renamed frontier would both BGMs be renamed or bneither? Vs Deoxys is meaningless if they don't release the event

. About what the second post pointed out

Spoiler

Gamefreak have said you can complete the National Pokedex just using XY and ORAS so that means most of the trios have to be in ORAS as only the birds were in XY. Now considering XY they don't have to give you all three of the trio, I'd expect these to be one per starter. In hindsight I wish GF had more evenly distributed the trios. 1 in XY and 5 on ORAS...then again VGC this year was fairly legendary free because of that which was a nice change

I'm sorry, their continued insistence on not making even the menus and stuff in 3D is just immensely frustrating. A small complaint, maybe, but the presentation looks fucking awful.

 

[Banjotanooki]

Is it just me or does the menu seem slower?

As in seleting your bag and pokemon takes longer to get to that menu than in X and Y.

 

[djlr181]

Here's video with the title screen music for the demo if anyone would like to listen.

I've had an account with the website for a while, and opted for emails about a week ago. Which is why I'm amazed I got the code so fast-I thought the people who opted for emails months ago would have gotten it first. Maybe no one opted for emails until recently, haha.

Something they'll probably include for next year's Pokemon game.

My seven year old son discovered Pokemon back in June. We got him Pokemon X and as of last night he has seven badges and 396 hours of game time to become a pokemaniac.

When he sees the preorder display boxes for Alpha/Omega he gets all excited and has to be explained once again they won't be out for another month.

He would be beside himself to play this demo...so I thought I would see if anyone has a spare code to share with him. I usually bring his 3DS with me when I pick him up after school and I would love to preinstall the demo on there and have him be surprised to see it after he opened it up today without telling him.

Anyone help me out here?

Thanks guys.

I think I have a left over Smash Bros 3DS code I could trade? The one with unlimited uses. I assume it still works?

It expired ever since the public demo on the eShop came out.

I have a code you can have. I'll PM it to you in a minute.

Ahh damnit. I had saved it to give my brother and forgot about it.

Demo code get! Downloading now. For once, Smash isn't getting playtime.

Haha wow. That's crazy but it's expected since they had to put the codes into image files. And the newsletters always do seem to go by how long you've been opted in. I could be wrong but I remember someone bringing up they got the September newsletter on the 20th while I got it on the 18th and I've been opted in to the newsletter for years now.

Have you gotten your code?

 

[Mengetsu]

Anyone have a spare code for US? Need in my veins!

 

[Koppai]

Well if anyone has a spare code I would be grateful. I'll share mine if/when I get it.

 

[BasilZero]

For those who got the demo, how are you guys enjoying it? I'm having a blast with it! It feels new and it doesn't feel like it's X/Y.

Spoiler

I never finished any of the original since I didn't play Pokemon at the time. But I did play a little of it a few months ago when a friend lend me his copy of Ruby.

I've played Ruby back when it first came out in 2003 and had clocked about 200 hours into grinding in the Elite 4 lol

I've played Pokemon Emerald few months ago as well and had it recorded.

I just downloaded the demo earlier in the morning and played it through twice. Its looking good so far. I wish we got the

Spoiler

Steelix and its megastone

but I'll take what I got now I guess .

I plan to play more of the demo since the experience is different later in the day.

Smash Bros? They actually didn't it seems

[Owari]

Alright. Got my US code. Now time to play and figure out just exactly what to do. I'll keep my eyes peeled fer a guide too.

 

[TheSlySoul]

Yeesh.

So they are saying my batch could be mailed a week later? Wut?
That is some BS Nintendo.

 

[MissileTrick]

Honesty I don't think that has anything to do with it. I have one friend who signed up the same day as me and got the code. Another friend of mine has been signed up for years and still haven't gotten his. It seems pretty random to me.

You should have put that behind an.email link.

 

[balladofwindfishes]

I opted in a week ago and got my code 4 hours ago, so I don't think that has any bearing on anything

 

[pikablu]

I've been a member of their email list for years. still no code for me.

 

[HawthorneKitty]

May is such a cutie.
Loving all the expressions.

 

[Lonnie413]

You should have put that behind an.email link.

But, the spontaneousness of it though.

 

[BasilZero]

I didnt realize I had to "opt" in.

I went to the site and finally did - ironically my avatar was...completely different from what I remember last time I checked.

Oh I guess they remade the site lol.

 

[Koppai]

But, the spontaneousness of it though.

I meant because the lurkers can see it. If you it behind an email link only members can see it :<

 

[Waluigilicious]

Anyone can pm me a spare eu code? I still don't have one

For the love of secondplaceeagle

I opted in to the newsletter just this week and I already got my code.

 

[Koppai]

I opted in to the newsletter just this week and I already got my code.

See, it seems to be completely random when people get them. Can someone spare me a US code (via PM) , I'll post mine if/when it comes

 

[-Horizon-]

Better late than never, right?

Depends on how busy I'll be in the coming weeks. Might just end up with me (hopefully) with the demo but with no time to play it

 

[NateDrake]

Anyone have a clue how many reward tiers there are (as in when does the game cutoff from giving rewards)? I've cleared the demo 10 times but don't want to clear it another 10x for no bonuses.

 

[Zing]

I had forgotten about this. Got my code when I woke up this morning. I'm probably not going to buy the game since I have yet to finish Y, but I'll try the demo just for fun.
