I want it!! NOW!!
scream Hell, I wouldn't mind getting a Japanese White Version if my DS could play it.
One of my few complaints would be that the fire starter becomes part fighting type...for the third time in a row...
A regular US DS Phat/Lite can play Japanese games. I've never had to import a GBA nor DS to play my Japanese Pokemon games.
Gamecube and Wii, on the other hand...
sweatdrop That said, the DSi has some features that are region locked, I believe. Not sure what those are, but I think Pokemon Black and White are supposed to be playable on DS Phat / Lite. If you really want me to confirm, my copies are here in the US and should be making their way to my place this week.
EDIT: Regarding this generation's pokemon... very, very weird... but incredibly exciting!
