Pre-ordered online, there's not much game shops here in Sweden and the stores that has games tends to overprice them.

We have plenty of Swedish online game stores though but I am sorta bunned of not getting some special pre-order bonus or anything.

Ah well, at least I'll get my X on release day.

This has never happened, ever. The spinoff games are too obscure to attract the masses, and the main series releases are always very well stocked because they know how popular it is. Worst case scenario I have to go across the street to a second store the night of.

Are you sure about that? The release day is on a Saturday, and as far as I know, only junk mail is delivered on weekends, so you'll either get your copy the day before (Friday) or you'll have to wait till Monday.

I think this is so far right:

Preorder shit so far:

Walmart: $5 preorder, nice looking matte gift card with legendaries on it. No other kind of bonuses. ($4 towards their VuDu service or whatever the fuck)
Target: $1. Get Xerneas/Yveltal pins when you put down the money, unknown if other bonuses on pickup
Gamestop: $5. Get 2 sided poster (Xerenas and Yveltal on one side, map of Kalos on the other). If you preorder and purchase both games, you'll get a History of Pokemon poster.
TRU: NOTHING

UK:
GAME: Pokeball cartridge holder. Dunno on prices, ukfags help me out here.

Canada/Australia:
EB Games: Same gamestop poster, probably same price.

Japan:
TRU: Xerenas/Yveltal figures
Pokemon Centers: Xerenas/Yveltal figures; if you preorder both you get a sampler of the OST with..i think 4 tracks on it.

Hopefully that helps some people make up their minds, loot wise.

Target is my backup right now because they had something nice for DP and BW. I've got the game preordered at both Target and Gamestop, hoping one will have something nice.

Nah, they'll definitely have a lot of Pokemon in stock. They've never sold out on stuff on launch day for a main title (BW sold a million the first day if i remember right), but i suppose anything is possible.

Unlike other games, the only reason to preorder Pokemon main series games is for the sweet loot you get.

>>13592842
BW at TRU gave out really nice Zekrom/Reshiram stylus sets and a wall cling. I think Gamestop might have also had something but nothing great. Target had an "Art Book" which was filled with artwork from the game on postcard sized pieces of high quality paper.

I have pics of some of the stuff. If anyone is super interested in it, I have some of it on my computer now.
