Yeah, for some odd reason Gamestop is already takin' pre-orders for Black & White. B/W aren't even up for pre-order in Japan yet. Perhaps Gamestop expects to make a heap of money off of these games?

Just thought I'd post this for anybody who plans to pre-order from there.

Or maybe they know something the public doesn't know, or Game Freak / Nintendo wants us to know... Interesting.

Edit -

Ships 4/01/2011 - Why would anyone pre-order a game almost 1 year before it comes out.

Hmmm, that's odd, I can't ever remember GameStop taking pre-orders this early. Who in their right mind would pre-order this early?

Gamestop's scam to make a lot more cash; Pokémon Black & White will be big; but hold off the Pre-orders for another 7 months or so.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but HG/SS's first data was 4/1/2010 when there was no concrete date.

I'm sorry I didn't quiet understand that; are you saying they released the recent Pokémon games with little to none information about them?

It was a typo. I meant the first date on GameStop (When HG/SS was available for a pre-order) said 4/1/2010.

It's a placeholder date.

Why wouldn't they take pre-orders this early? It's good business in my opinion. They know the games are going to sell like hotcakes and the sooner they get pre-order figures the more time they have to prepare order numbers for their stores. Because if they were to run out of stock when the game is released because they didn't anticipate demand then they're losing out on potential business because people will go elsewhere to try and find it.

Very well... Nicely said and I can totally agree with that. Didn't think of it that way.

I agree with this, I was simply saying that I was surprised their doing it this early, although I do think it's a good move, just a odd one.

Well yeah, it is surprising, I just never thought of the idea of preparing millions of copies that doesn't exist yet.
