What is the best/most reasonable place to get my hands on Pokemon Black 2?

I've had no luck at local gameshops and I'm having a hard time getting it for less than 60 dollarinos.

Same goes for Pokemon Platinbum.

Not sure about Platinum, but I usually Platinum sell really cheap at those outside flea markets usually. Same with Diamond and Pearl. I'm b/w(2) could also be there but they're just rarer, from my experience. Try checking some place like that, you might get lucky. Look in pawn shops as well.

Oh shit, my post is all kinds of fucked. Here's the corrected one:

Smaller town thrift shops and such usually just have ds games in a basket or something. You could get lucky and find sone cool shit at different places.

This is what I've been hoping for, but no luck yet.

You don't happen to know of any solid online retailers? Amazon is currently 60-130 dollars...

I just buy my old games off of ebay, but I am very careful about what I buy and stay keen for fakes

I ended up getting the romhack of black 2.
The seller gave me a refund, but still...

With international shipping I usually end up at 60+

the only pokemon games that have degraded in value are rby and gs because there are so many millions out there, otherwise expect to pay full price or more for one

You can still buy brand new Pokemon Platinum from the Middle East/Southeast Asia.

These carts are second print US version carts for the non-Japanese Asian market and you can easily see one since the box will have a blue/green/white seal on the ESRB logo. There's literally zero difference between a US/Asia cart.

Ebay can yield some stuff. Try searching with typos, a lot of games are being sold with the incorrect spelling. Check new listings and if all else fails look fir japanese carts, if you dont mind learning a bit of katakana/hiragana then it might be your best best. I buy jap versions of things all the time, because its not much different and a lot of games have low level japanese or very little japanese with a lot of english. Pokemon doesnt have very hard japanese.

I can read jap, but iirc gen 5 was region locked.

I can't use my jap copy of pokemon white on my PAL DS/3DS.

DP and BW/B2W2 are still sold at most bigger stores I've been to, though there's a 'wifi is now defunct' sticker on them.
You won't find them for any less than 50-60€ though.

Looks like this is the case.
I'll just have to bite the bullet and pay up.

Is this game worth getting to play if I've already played BW before? I'm curious because while gen 5 isn't my favorite, everyone seems to really love these sequels

It's really kind of baffling. They could release them full price and they would still sell an obscene amount.

no, but it was a lot of work to even get a modded way to play DS games off a sd, still not 100% perfect

Yeah, I always assumed it would be an easy way to make a lot of money. They're not beyond shameless decisions but for some reason they won't simply port a large majority of their library to make easy money...

I have played every generation, but just never
BW's sequel. Doesn't mean I love pokemon any less if I missed single game.
>>37643932
What is it about it that makes it so good? I love BW, is it like the same game over again?

it's two years later and you play as a new trainer and see what happens after the events of BW, old pokemon appear in the game

why not watch the marketing playlist for the game?

Buy an r4 and put a rom in the sd card, or hack your 3ds/ds to do the same thing.
