Be ready for the onslaught of the white flame and the black electric bolts. Pokemon Black and White will be shipped this Saturday. As most of you might already know, we will do an extra shift on that day to ensure that the majority of customers who have preordered will get their game in a timely fashion.
Another issue that might concern you is the game's region-lock. We have conducted the testing on Pokemon White and Black recently and its confirmed that the games are locked. They work on all Nintendo DSâ„¢ and DSâ„¢ Lite consoles, but only on Japanese Nintendo DSiâ„¢ and DSiâ„¢ LL.
Impatient gamers can either dig out the older consoles or alternatively, get new Japanese encoded ones:
Region-lock on Pokemon White and Black on Nintendo DSi and DSi LL confirmed! further updates on Pokemon White and Black shipping schedules.
someone's gonna be disappointed

oh and the cat just remembered
there's an anti piracy feature where your pokemon can't gain any exp or it stops at certain points in the game.

^ Easy peasy. Just find rom patches or if you know what you're doing, a hex editor.

anti-piracy fix came out a few hours after the rom.
Anyway, who actually wasted money on a DSi?

Not to mention Ricky is buying it, so he won't have to deal with this.

It won't be region locked on DS Lite.
Thank god mine isn't a DSi.
From what I'm reading though, some carts are still having problems with the rom.

Region locking is there for a reason. NOA and NOJ are basically different companies that just sell the same products. Region locking prevents people from taking away business from NOA or NOE and also allows for actual sales in Japan to be measured more easily.
