Shaping up decent to me. Hopefully not double-posting or whatnot.

Looks HOT...It comes out in Japan in September, so that probably means we won't be getting it till early next year... ;_;

[Infernal Monkey]

This is the first Pokemon RPG I've been really interested in since Pokemon Blue! And I can hardly remember anything in Pokemon Blue! Something about a kid battling me just because I wasn't wearing shorts.. I think Brock was in there, with his.. with his face.

Pokemon DS and FFIII this year? I think Nintendo better get to work on another "shortages" appology letter. Nintendo DS sales are going to be absoutely crazy this xmas for the Japanese.

I'm not going to get excited until it's confirmed we'll get this game before 2009.

OMG!!! I take that back! CHECK OUT THE AWESOME COMMERCIAL!

SO PUMPED!

Holy smokes Electabuzz evolves? but man does he look ugly, well now at least.  

[Bill Aurion]

Oooo, Pokemon customization?  Win!

The world map also seems nicely arranged to not look too linear...

[Smash_Brother]

You know, it hadn't even occurred to me that the DS was selling as well as it was without even having a Pokemon game out for it...

And now we have one coming which offers wifi battles?

Holy SH*T, are they going to have a hard time meeting demand...

[Mario]

Is demand a big Pokemon fan? I could beat him.

By the way, not that this means anything at all, but Nintendo Australia said to not expect Pokemon P/D this year. It'll probably be another Ruby/Sapphire deal, but the wait will feel twice as long.

Japan government should help the population and just get one DS for everyone and ration them out according to a schedule to be payed back during tax seasons.  I mean seriously.  How much more population do they have?

Edit:  The graphics don't look that updated but I wasn't really expecting much.  The commercial is cool.  I'm psyched now.  I can't wait to face you guys off over WiFi.

Total population is 127,400,000.  So they need another 110,000,000 or so.

That's roughly 3.4 people per square meter and that's not taking out the parts that or uninhabitable, like sheer cliff walls.

[KDR_11k]

That's 337/km² according to Wiki.
