Diamond and Pearl get over half a million pre-orders

I'm SO glad I pre-ordered Pearl now. I hope to see the same busy forums that were so popular years ago, and I also hope to see some of the old members back.

Yeah right. Like that's going to happen. Most of the old members have probably forgotten about these forums. They've moved on to different things. Plus we were down so long that one time that, well, most got impatient.

I'm getting Diamond tomorrow and I'm so glad that I have something new to play. But I'll probably just use the Wi-Fi features for trading until I'm sure that I'll be able to battle with others without embarrassing myself.

You never know, though. The old members might get some new life put into them if they pre-ordered either of these games. Besides, I am a really old member and have been steadily getting back into pokemon after a 3 year absence of not doing anything pokemon-related. That means no games, no buying accessories of pokemon, no cards of new pokemon like I used to collect, not even battling in my G,S,C or FR,LG,R,S,E. So it might be popular again. All I am saying is that people might come back and it would be good to see them. I don't think many people will be returning, though.

I dropped out of sight because I forgot my password and had trouble getting it reset

Plus I get less browse time at work these days.

Looking forward to the new era! Just hate it that we have to wait until the 1st of June for the Australian release - but the pre-order IS in.
