Just getting my ideas for X and Y threads out the way while I have the time. XD For those picking it up on day one, what are your plans for buying and playing the games?
For me, I'm getting an early start to my local Game store and buying both versions first thing it opens. There might be an extra purchase if funds are kind to me too, hint hint. I know most people will be ordering online in the hope of getting it a day early, but since buying Red version on launch day at the very same store, its a tradition I buy the new main entry games on launch date at that same store for old times sake. :)
As for playing, I'm spending the whole weekend as much as I can to play through them both. I might not go as mad as I did with GS when I stayed up a whole 24 hours after getting them launch day, but nothing else will see time during that weekend. :3
-
hopefully itll arrive in the mail early and ill be able to get to the door on time ahahaha
gonna sit on my ass and play it for like 18 hours straight like the jobless scum i am
-
Sadly, I do not have the time or money to get it on launch day, because unless it's for example, my birthday, I'm expected to buy it myself. I'd love to, though. Looks like I'd better put it on my christmas wish list :(
-
got the money for it woo
i will be sitting in the same spot for 10 hours straight at least
maybe ill set up a tent at gamestop ^ ^
-
Wake up, march myself down to GAME at stupid o' clock, buy game, run home, play.
-
Obtain game.
Disregard life.
-
I'm getting Y as soon as I wake up on launch day, then I gotta download Torchic and we're off for adventures!
-
At the moment, planning to do my Xmas shopping on XY release date. Definitely a coincidence. Maybe.
Definitely won't end up in my basket...
-
Well it's a Saturday and I always go and do the shopping with my Mum around noon so I'll probably buy it from Tesco (other supermarket chains are available) and then walk home to get down to some hardcore playing :yeswink:
-
urrggggg the flesh is weak.
casually opens up ebay to see what kind of price 3DSs are selling for after having told myself that i'd just wait until christmas or something like that.
if i do wait then i'm going to have to not be online at all or end up knowing everything about the game before i play it .-.
dramatic sighing
launch day plans: AVOID EVERYTHING.
well i mean that's kind of started already due to the canada & italy thing lmao.
-
Begging for the extra £4-6 to buy it methinks.
And I still might wait another week or two. I'll just pretend I'm three weeks out from official launch xD
-
Realise I don't have a 3DS and do something else.
-
I also plan on getting to my local Gamestop and picking up my Pokemon X game, downloading the event Torchic, choosing Fennekin and Charmander, and trying to get through as much as I can the rest of the day. This is my third preorder I have ever done and will be my second get to the store as soon as possible on the release date game. I may luck out again and get a FEMALE starter in the very first five minutes of playing!
-
Buy game
Go to work and cry because I have to work when I want to play pokeymans
-
Have a nice lie in, since it's saturday, and hopefully it will come in the post while I'm asleep otherwise I will be impatient waiting for it if I'm awake. When I start playing it, I'm going to soft reset for female starters since I want to breed them and trade them for the other starters.
-
I won't be able to pick it up until the monday, unless I get up super early on the saturday. I've got 11-9 on the saturday and likely a 12-8 on the sunday... Yayy
-
I'm getting it shipped via Amazon, so it'll likely come the week of release rather than the day of release.
As for what I plan to do when I have the game, I'm going to put it in a drawer and continue studying for a terrifying test I need to take to stand a chance of being accepted into a good Doctorate program.
-
New plans.
Not get it on the release date then let it eat away at my psyche and drive me insane for about 2.5 month like Black 2.

We have managed to convince our GAME (Lower Merryhill store in Stourbridge) to open at 8 instead of 9 so there will be about 12 of us from our local 'Pokemon Center' heading down and picking up our games at about 7:30 (all very excited and likely playing the original pokemon opening song).
We are then going to be playing within the shopping center for pretty much as long as our batteries hold, trading and battling each other while also handing out our new website details to other people who are buying the game, so we can get even more people involved in our pokemon group. It is going to be a really great day with the new games spent with old friends and new friends. I think I might even take my video camera.

Ah, it is cool that you have a local Pokemon group! I do not think that there is one near me.
I am hopefully getting it delivered on the day from GAME but if it doesn't arrive then I am going to go to Tesco and buy X instead haha
