Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire are seeing higher pre-orders than the last entry in the series, X/Y. That’s information comes straight from Nintendo UK, who spoke with MCV in the magazine’s latest issue.

Nintendo UK marketing boss Shelly Pearce said:

“Pre-orders for Pokémon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire are doing really well at the moment. It is pre-ordering more than X and Y, so we are quite optimistic about that one.”

UK general manager Simon Kemp chimed in about Pokémon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire pre-orders as well: “And that is a pattern we’re seeing globally.”

Later in MCV’s interview, Peace commented on Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire’s marketing plans. The games are “getting a similar sized campaign to what we did on X and Y.” And while Nintendo UK is planning various TV and online media efforts for its marketing plans, Peace said the special demo will be a “big part of the campaign.”

“That’s a big part of the campaign. We are finding that the demo versions of things are working really well for us. The Super Smash Bros. demo was really popular and converted lots of people to purchase.”

It could just very well mean preorders, i find it hard to believe gen 3 remakes will do that well compared to a new Installment, the holidays will help make fw look very good compared to the other pokemon launches.

Gamefreak was smart to add a great amount of Mega Evolutions! This will be an attractive selling point in all future installments

Yes, go Mudkips lovers!

As i have predict... B)
I still think that this remake will sell more than X/Y and the original for GBA.

My favourite generation:

4 > 3 > 2 > 1 > 6 > 5

Power of Mudkip!

IMO:
3>5>2>1>4>6 or 6>4
I'm only counting the main 2 games.

counting the entire gen, I'd say:

3>5>4>2>1>6

Mudkips blow, Treekos ftw :)

OT: Deserved is all. Hope this will sell gangbusters homies

So glad to see lots of Gen 3 love. I was always surrounded by people that were genwunners.
