To the people who said pokemon will decline cuz pokemon BW2 did or cuz overall series went down? Then Yes

Who the fuck gives about critics though? Its the general public's opinon that matters...and their gonna be the ones buying the game. ME3 and Diablo III, were great games in the eyes of critics but the general public pammed it.

Pff... i know blizzard games are overhyped, but ME3 was just as good as ME2. Its dumb to criticise it just because the ending wasnt what they wanted. The ending is only a fraction of the game. The jouney there is very important.

But i will raise you GW2 to that. Critics said it was awesome, in fact its a weak MMORPG wich brought one inovation: events, but failed at everything else.

Not exactly great examples.  Both of those games sold millions and millions of copies, particularly Diablo III.

This is even more so for games that are released digitally at launch as well.

I have no Y preorder, cause I'm getting it digitally.

Chespin had the worse mid stage by far... Now it has by far the best. Itlooks bulky as f***! I need  a type pls! Steel (crosses fingers)

Come now. These preorder numbers are wildly inaccurate, we all know that. There's likely more preorders than that in the UK alone, let alone America which is a much larger country.

I think we will see quite a leggy game arrive soon. Pokemon was never about preorders or FW.

Finally some hard numbers! Combine this with eShop figures and things are looking bright now.

It certainly looks like it deserves it, congrats.
