Err the bolded also applies to new games, infact moreso as they're not reusing characters places n music, it's all completely new. True about post-game content though, but playing the game today means you'll be missing out on online. Of course how important that is be relative, but for me it easily outweighs all that stuff so I can't recommend people get that game now.

The online in Pokémon was so crappy pre-3DS that it really doesn't matter anyway.

And yes, obviously newer Pokémon games also have their own story, places, characters and soundtrack, but that doesn't mean they replace B2/W2. Each game is unique and each game has its own story to tell, and B2/W2's is one of the best, because it is a direct sequel to B/W (which is easily the best in the series story-wise) and it builds quite a lot on top of it, with a lot of character development that is actually well-written for a change.

I actually did get White 2, but I skipped Emerald and Platinum before it.
