I'm actually considering buying a white 3DS XL since they're available here now. Don't want a 2DS.

I might do the same, not gonna want to wait. I live in the middle of nowhere so I have to take a half hour drive to get to the closest place that sells games and then obviously take the same drive back.
Purchase at FS retail and return the online copy using retail receipt later.

So many Canadians in one place, I'm not used to this. Well, except when I stand on top of my house and use binoculars to look at the border.

In the recent demos the overworld was 2D only and the battles were 3D.
If it doesn't come on Friday, that's what I'll probably do.
Hmmmmm... I got Pikmin 3 on Friday, probably because of Civic Holiday on the Monday. Oh man a day early so I can play simultaneously with the Japanese eShop crowd! :OOOO
:OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Didn't realize it was Thanksgiving weekend. I know what I'm doing that whole weekend.

I wouldn't put much thought into what some guy at NoA says. I expect some sort of news relating to it some time this fall since both the Wii U and 3DS will be getting updates.
Though if he is actually telling the truth, I wonder if the issue is deactivating the games on one device, and then enabling them on another. They can just look at how the Vita does that.
EDIT: Why am I just saying the Vita, look at how pretty much every device with account systems work other than the Wii U.
So the most recent demo was the gamescom version?

The X and Y demos will also be part of the Nintendo Experience Tour, if anyone wanted to check out the games a little bit ahead of time.
EDIT: I see now where Firestorm already made a thread about it. I'm slow.

No FS in my town. Lame, guess I'll have to wait.

I have a feeling that I'll be getting my games slightly later than you guys.

I'm just hoping that the regional distribution doesn't fumble this one up like they did FE:A. That extra day after waiting months kinda stings. =s
On the other hand I remember picking up BW the day before street date at the same store. Lately this doesn't seem to happen as often unfortunately.

I expect you to report on, well, everything.

Oh, it's the same demo. Well of course it would be, but that slipped my mind for a minute there.
Yeah, I don't think there will be really anything new to find then.

Oh, er... if you have the time, try and see if you can flesh out as much as you can on Fairy (if ya can). Try out Fairy Wind on everything (including Chespin if you can), and see what exactly what's up

Yeah, get some more info out of fairy type!

I just want to see that new type chart.
Damn, the inevitable 2DS+Pokemon bundle will sell like hotcakes. Ninty's pretty clever.
Anyway, picking up X on the eShop for sure. The idea of always having Pokemon available in my 3DS just makes sense. Can't believe I'm this excited for a Pokemon game after having skipped B/W and B2/W2.

I just realized, the 2vs2 demo doesn't seem to have any Pokemon-amie influence. Normally it'd have messages like "it survived a hit" or something.
I guess you could gather statistical data on all damage done. You could just go easy on Sycamore's team and see if you can estimate mega mewtwo's stats. It does have recover, and I haven't seen many people try to check its defenses.
That's what I'd be most interested in, too. Do we know anything else but 2x against Dragons? If so I missed it. :/
We probably won't get any info on fairy resistances until demos include fairy pokemon, but it'd be good to at least know the "receiving" end.
Perhaps, perhaps not. We've seen multiple battles without the "it survived a hit" thing

Encountered my 3rd Sandshrew in the DW today.
That makes 3/3 male. And I really want a female DW Sandshrew.
AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH
EDIT: "Fourth time's the charm."

Wait, aren't all Dream World Pokemon male?

If a Pokemon can be female then you can get it as a female (not counting events, of course). Then its babies have a 60% chance of getting its ability.
Overrated is the worst way to disagree with other people's opinions.

That was a great watch, but I have a feeling that #1 is going to piss a lot of people off ;P
I think that my personal most overrated Pokémon as a kid was Scyther, but that was mostly because I was stuck with silly 'ol Pinsir while my Red compatriots got the much-superior 'mon. Scizor's one of my faves now though, so I've gotten over it.

Sometimes I wonder about a Pokémon-GAF community tournament or something. Maybe someone should make it happen...

I don't think Tamashii is one of the notable people in the fandom.
With that said how can anyone not even agree with number one when it's pretty much a given

"...and only a few of them can be considered the best at what they do."
As she pictures 33 percent of a set.
"You would think people would get tired of the same gimmick after fifteen years."
We playing Pokemon, breh.
It's Global Link event Pokémon that are almost always male.
Gardevoir's Japanese name is unintentionally hilarious.
Five seconds into the video and she's wearing a Pikachu hat. It looks like we're in this deep.
