I didn't enjoy the game, but my little cousin loves it.
Platinum is out in a week or two.

Mystery Dungeon is pretty much Izuna without hot ninja chicks.

There's something that's been bothering me lately: fly allows you to go about anywhere in the region, and in Sinnoh the "Underground" was introduced. It reaches just about everywhere in Sinnoh, so how come Dig can't transport you like Fly?
D:< Loophole!

Hmm...... because Fly uses checkpoints(towns/cities) in order to reach different places, where as with the Underground there are no checkpoints for Dig to use? There should be a more convenient way to travel long distances quickly in there though. I'm actually surprised Platinum didn't do anything regarding it (as far as I've read). Speaking of which, is anyone here NOT getting Platinum? It doesn't really interest me aside from the beefed up GTS & new wifi features (and I guess the spruced up graphics & re-challenging the gym leaders/special people), but that doesn't seem quite reason enough to buy it. I need a tipping point.

I need a tipping point. I can't help but be paranoid about my money, even with $1,000+ unemployment left to be collected. Not having a job for a year will do that to you. It's out in a few days, sure, but it may well be my birthday before I consider getting Platinum. New game price and all, you know?

Exactly. There are so many other things that money could/should be spent on or saved up for. Although the DS games are cheaper than regular console games, I usually buy my games on Ebay; they usually have better deals. ^^
My only worry about holding off on buying Platinum though is not being able to get the different Rotom formes if Nintendo only does the secret key wonder card thing once.

Shamefully, I m must admit I won't be buying. I, like many people, have other methods of testing out a game before making sure I want to buy it.
If anything, I can get it and trade with you? As for now, I'm really REALLY trying to save up for my Digital Art hardware.

I won't be buying Platinum. That doesn't mean I won't be playing it, though.
I've decided only the new games will get my dollar. I'm kinda tired of paying for rehashes, especially one that makes the male character look like a moron who sits at Starbucks all day.

Sugimori's shading is f***ing hard to copy; his form is slightly easier, but it's rather difficult coming up with your own pokmon - in his style!
Furious Mark, I suggest you be careful about mentioning tactics around buying a game; nothing wrong with your post, just be cautious that you don't get in any large trouble. It's rare, but it can happen.

Aww, that blue fake!mon is awfully cute. It's interesting that Sugimori's shading is so hard to copy. I haven't tried to imitate it myself, but some pokemon specie's coloring look deceptively simple. Maybe part of it is in the blending. I wonder if he still does his art traditionally or if it's all digital now. And I know what you mean FM2 about wanting only the new games; another reason I want to hold off on Platinum is if the Johto remakes are announced after Movie 12. Long shot, sure, but I can't help but be a believer.

Long shot, sure, but I can't help but be a believer. Anything's possible, I suppose, but the only real reason I would have for getting Platinum is the new Battle Frontier. I willingly miss out on the introduction of such in Emerald as Emerald is still well more than I'm willing to pay for it new, despite the fact that the other Pokemon GBA games are now more than reasonable by my standards when bought new. Hard to believe, but they're still out there. Indeed, all the seeming references between the games and anime does seem as though they're pointing to a Gold and Silver remake, but as it stands now, it's... just wishful thinking. It would be nice, though, as any forum dedicated to Pokemon, or at least has a thread about the games, seems to have the general consensus about them that Pokemon Gold, Silver, and Crystal were effectively the single most popular iteration of Pokemon since the series debuted. More popular, in fact, than both Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald AND Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, even if Platinum technically still has yet to see release in the U.S.
