I saw Pokemon platinum.I've heard of it and I wanted to know,should I pre-order it?
I had diamond and I liked it,it was fun.Is platinum better or is it the same game with a few tiny changes because I don't want to buy the same game twice.

Trust me, its got more than a few "tiny" changes :P

I'm going to pre-order it, just because I know it will be all sold out where I live.

It's basically the same game, but they've really expanded upon D/P a lot. Graphics, story, even movesets.

I'd definitely purchase it if you liked Diamond.

my gamestop sold out of pearl/diamond on the first day. I'm probably not gonna get a chance to go the release day for platinum. assuming it sells out the first day, how long should it take for them to restoke?
I hope this game has more than 3 fire pokemon in it though.

It'll have the few in it; namely the starters and Heatran.

And Platinum should likely be overstocked. You shouldn't have an issue getting it.

My Wal-Mart have massive overstock on D/P. They had a cardboard shelf with Diagla and Palkia on it with ~50-70 copies, plus massive stacks behind the glass where they showcase their games, plus more stacks behind their register. Also, this was one day after release. Based on this, I'm sure I'll be able to get it without trouble. Although I'm sure my parents will say, "Pokemon? :|"... >_>

I know,I hated that about diamond.

But yea I'll pre-order it online.
Hey I know I could go to gamestop.com to find out this but since i'm already here...

Does gamestop require the minimum $5 for pre-orders if you do it online?
