Well i just come back fro midnight launch.

Pretty much everyone bought both versions. some people bought 4 copies (2 standard and 2 limited editions).

It s the biggest midnight launch I have seen for a Nintendo game.

Normally the que clears in 10-15mins. Today they made evryone pay before 10pm. There was 12 lines being served simultaneously.

Everyone bought both versions? Interesting.

People who wait in line at a midnight launch or frequent these forums are not accurate representatives of the average pokemon player who buys one. In my experience I had to wait through the weekend for new shipments of Sun to show up as while they had Moon they'd burnt through Sun supplies, so clearly most people are just getting one.

That said, I'm enjoying this one so much that I find myself wishing I'd got the two-pack.
