Well, sorta. Pre-orders that is.
This news item is more than 45 days old. Updates are unlikely and newer information may already be available.
Nintendo released a press statement revealing that Black/White have pre-orders ranking up to a staggering one million already, and expect it to climb up up to 1.5 million. Absolutely amazing. Of course pre-orders may be cancelled, some might change their mind but B/W is set to become the fastest selling DS game ever.
To put this in perspective, half a million people voted for the infamous BNP in the British general elections a few months ago, so scientifically speaking: Pokemon > Racism. Makes you happy doesn't it?
We tried to get a few more details from Nintendo, but they were too busy ordering their solid gold houses and rocket cars.
Stick around on PKMN.NET where we shall be waiting on the fence for any new Black/White info. In the meantime comment below on the mega franchise Pokemon has become and laugh at those who still call it a 'fad'. Perhaps a teehee, or a harhar, or maybe a dahahahahaha. Be creative!

:O Bwahahaha, awesome. Maybe I should pre-order mine so that they can get that solid gold duck pond... pff...fff....tgh....must...not...WHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!11111112 my god :O Oh, god. I like the Ledyba thing, though. I'm happy I figured out before y'all! I think... I hope... I'm sad now.... *hides* how can a pre-order be cancled?
two of those million were mine. how about a whahahahahah? is black and white the japanese version of starcaft2 now ? sooo many copies XD Oh course, you need to take into account that the National Front thinks the BNP is a joke, so you'd have to add up all the people in total for a fair result. As well as take into account that Japan has more people. Great analysis. gee Snagger, you almost make it sound like it should be taken seriously. do you have any stats on which it more popular? Tehehehehehehe! Go pokémon! 'We tried to get a few more details from Nintendo, but they were too busy ordering their solid gold houses and rocket cars' That made me laugh so much hahaha Shadowmon I think black is more popular. Just because usually the one that comes first in titles will usually be more popular. Mooseler, I think Silver, Sapphire and SoulSilver are all more popular. If Black wins, its because its just a more popular color in general.
