I'm getting Y (better legendary, better mega evolutions), first Pokemon I've played since Platinum came out. I wish there were another 3DS games I wanted to take advantage of that TRU deal, but I'm pretty sure I already have everything that interests me. :-\

since everyone here is buying this, I'm eager to hear some the impressions from a more discerning crowd.

I want this in the way I've wanted every Pokemon since Blue/Red, but the originals are the only games that kept my attention past ~10 hours, maybe because I was part of its demographic back then.  People are saying this game goes deep with Blue/Red nostalgia, so maybe I'm part of its demographic right now.

Well, in Black/White it was tweaked so that it didn't interrupt the battles. Basically the same thing.

I'm too broke and distracted to dive into this now. But if I buy it, say, a few months from now will the community still be thriving and noob friendly?

(I haven't legitimately played a Poke title since... Crystal?)

Oh, I'll definitely still be thriving and noob friendly. (:phil)

A new Pokemon game usually eats up about 3 months of my life each time, sometimes more (took about 6-8 months before I stopped playing SoulSilver), sometimes less (stopped playing White 2 shortly after I beat it.)

Red/Blue nostlagia? How so?

I got Black 2 and found it boring by hour 10 as well. I loved Blue back in the day but I was a 13 year old so I was a target demographic.

himumu,the first mega pokemon they revealed was mewtwo,mewtwo get 2 mega evolution,you get one of the original starter halfway through the game and each one of them has a mega evolution and charizard being the most popular original starter gets two

i'm not sure how they have to hammer "remember when you played blue/red?" more than that

cant agree with this. 3rd gen was better than 4th. 4th gen felt stale.

i love that when people come online, theres a scrolling bar that tells you on the botton screen

not bad weird, just different.  I don't remember my pokemon getting experience when I catch pokemon.  Also, 3D is battle only, which is...weird to get used to.  Controls are odd, too.
