King Riku 2,063 Posted October 3, 2012 http://pokebeach.com/2012/10/black-2-and-white-2-out-early-at-some-stores Pokebeach has gotten reports, and as you can see some pictures, of early releases at some stores such as Walmart. So if you want the game early and have no current pre order, I suggest calling around to your local stores to see who's selling. Sadly I have a pre order at Gamestop so I must wait :'( 1 XIIISwords reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Weedanort 8,786 Posted October 3, 2012 I live in Europe, so I have to wait a bit longer Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Dolan 963 Posted October 3, 2012 That's pretty usual for Wal-Mart. Might try hunting it down, but I got most of my money in GameStop credit. Maybe I'll swap out BO2 for Black 2 at GameStop in a couple days, pick up Keldeo while I'm at it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And yeah, I was suprised Walmart of all places decided to sell early, I'd expect it more from somewhere like Target. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Dolan 963 Posted October 3, 2012 I'd expect it more from somewhere like Target. Target has a 'uh oh, someone forgot to keep this in the closet, can't sell this until xx/xx/xxxx' system in their computer to prevent an employee selling a item early.

Really? That sucks. Although once in a while I'd find something early and they let me buy them. Not often, but still. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Namikaze 654 Posted October 3, 2012 Usually they never allowed to sell them, like one time they had Theatrythm out early but every time i'd tried to buy it it never went through Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WakingDawn96 1,166 Posted October 3, 2012 I pre-ordered at GameStop, but my GameStop here is trying to open early on Sunday so they can give out the Pokemon games. Also it is helpful to me cause that is when I am going to the Beach. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've always picked Oshawott as my starter, and plan to do the same for White 2. It's most likely Ash's, his evolved right? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No his did not evolve but I think this one is Burgany's (The purple hair girl who hates Cilan). Also OSHAWOTT is my FAVORITE pokemon. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xalaru 445 Posted October 3, 2012 I'm in England so gotta wait til the 12th. Gonna be pre-ordering from Amazon. Sucks that we have to wait an extra 5 days, but hey, we got B/W before the US so it's only fair. Not to mention at least we get it on a Friday so have the weekend to play it, whereas whoever gets it on the 7th only has the Sunday before they have to go back to school/college/work or whatever. BW2 will be a nice break from all the work I've got this year. Should probably pre-order soon, seeing as how local stores here NEVER sell games before the release...

Usually I'd be pissed at my lack of time to play, but I blew through White so fast the first time I didn't have time to enjoy it. I plan on taking it much slower with White 2, so it's no big deal. Now that I think about it, Black and White released on a Sunday in North America too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
XIIISwords 1,059 Posted October 4, 2012 Is it crazy that I'm considering spending $3 to ride a public bus for an hour (round trip) alone to Walmart and get the game if they're selling it already? No his did not evolve but I think this one is Burgany's (The purple hair girl who hates Cilan). Also OSHAWOTT is my FAVORITE pokemon. Reaction first seeing Oshawott:Oh, I was right, it is an otter. It looks kind of strange. The white head is out of place, but cute. Reaction seeing the first Best Wishes poster: That shell is detachable, awesome! Reaction seeing first few episodes of Best Wishes: OSHAWOTT 2011!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King Riku 2,063 Posted October 4, 2012 Is it crazy that I'm considering spending $3 to ride a public bus for an hour (round trip) alone to Walmart and get the game if they're selling it already? Nope, I'd totally do that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
XIIISwords 1,059 Posted October 4, 2012 Nope, I'd totally do that. I did it with KH 3D... I'm a college freshman and hadn't ever gone anywhere unsupervised until that trip. I know, I'm pathetic, but I'm proud! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, I completed Black in 3 days (so did my best friend) and we were actually really disappointed we went through it so quick. So yeah, also gonna take Black 2 slower.

So yeah, also gonna take Black 2 slower. The more I got into the story, the more I sped through everything as fast I could. I never took my time to actually enjoy the new features. Luckily there's a lot of new features in B/W2, so I'll have some new things to mess around with before I go blasting off again /shot Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
XIIISwords 1,059 Posted October 4, 2012 Took the bus to my local Walmart. They weren't selling it and didn't let me preorder. I walked to Best Buy and the same thing happened. I was going to try Target and only had 20 minutes until the bus would leave and I'd miss my chance to get back, and then I saw the Holy Grail. Gamestop Five minutes later I walked out of Gamestop clutching my preorder receipt. They open two hours early on Sunday, but I won't be in town until that night. Bah humbug, I can't get it till Monday. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They always insist that the games come out on different days, usually Tuesdays, and say that Nintendo ordered them not to sell before that date. BS. I went there on June 18 for Conquest and they said it didn't come out til the 25th. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's why I never pre order or buy brand new games from them. I only buy older ones because they usually have good deals, like Samurai Warriors being half price.

Y U DECEIVE ME? I was walking from Best Buy to Target and then I saw Gamestop. I just got a big smile on my face and thought "GAMESTOP! They're always reliable!" I ran there.
