BEST. GAME. EVER. (graphics wise) hats off to game freak
Supposed to come out worldwide but some certain countries released their game week early leaking the games for people
And now it has a game breaking glitch that bricks the game(s). Real shame...
@anon1 dude, you do know that the world has different time-zone, right? So it's not a surprise for some european countries to get it first, because their 'october 12' happened to come earlier. So yeah, it's really released on 'the same date'
@anon1 plus, if it did come out sooner, why did it bother you anyway? You have full control for 'your own restraint' to avoid any leaked information/news, right? Basically nobody forced you by pointing a gun in your mouth to read or learnt or be leaked about them in advance. Please stop trolling the pokemon news, stop being so negative: trust me it wont ever make your life better
