Going to go pick up.
What!? Lucky, at least I only have to wait until tomorrow morning, can't wait to get my Lugia figure!!
" Yeah, I'm gonna grab it early too, I played the shit out of Gold back in the day so I'm going for Silver this time around. "Wasnt the game totally remade?
It's no surprise that gamestop is selling a game early. I'll just have to wait to pick up a copy tomorrow. Hope you enjoy it.
" @The_Laughing_Man: Yeah, I guess it was... but I'm really diggin the Lugia/Kyogre combo in the new Silver over Ho-oh/Groudon. It's hard to decide everytime they throw out a new duo of games. "Doesnt your first pokemon also follow you around like in Yellow?
*21 and semi excited*

" @tdk08 said:Oh wow, I actually didn't know that, had to check it on the wiki page. I never was a fan of that in Yellow but I guess it could be kind of cool, depends if it's just for show or actually has a purpose. And also, correction to my original post: Kyogre is in Gold and Groudon is in Silver. This is now even harder to decide... Kind of weird that they chose those combinations, I would've thought Groudon-Gold and vice versa mostly because of the colors." @The_Laughing_Man: Yeah, I guess it was... but I'm really diggin the Lugia/Kyogre combo in the new Silver over Ho-oh/Groudon.

" @The_Laughing_Man said:I think they did that because of the remaking of the game. I mean..there is a massive amount of new content. Is it gonna have ALL the pokemon? Or just that one region?

" @tdk08 said:It has both Kanto and Johto just like the original, but you can't catch every pokemon in just these remakes.

Yeah the following around stuff is kindof a fun bonus. It's whoever's in the top of your line.
God this is an awesome entry, I can barely recognize it from Gold and Silver like a decade ago. My bad memory could help, but I think the graphics and little changes make it feel unique, and not playing the same old game again. Plus you can catch more or less every significant legendary from every game in this one. Madness.

" @AgentJ said:Unfortunately, I think there are a number. Obviously most of the starters and nearly all of the legendaries.

This site has specific details, check the links on the right-hand side:" @AgentJ: There's like 20 or so legendaries in this, including a lot from the games made after gold/silver. Which is pretty insane. Anybody actually know the differences between the two versions? Apart from the Kyogre/Groundon thing. "

So like, what are the chances that if I were to go to a 24hr Wal-Mart that I would be able to find this stocked and pick it up tonight?
