New poll.

Importing Japanese games! Do you do it?

I sure do. I've imported Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, SoulSilver and I'm going to import Black or White and ask for the other for my birthday.

If you chose "I don't know where to buy" I use Play Asia for importing everything, they're super reliable. Just be warned, importing is not cheap, I've paid about 80 dollars to pre-order and import before (that includes shipping.)

Right now, you can import Black and White from Play Asia for 65 dollars (not including shipping.)

I voted for 'I would if I knew Japanese'. Though I might just import White anyway and have no idea what to do. XD

I'll probably pre-order English White, as well. I'll get White to start. ^^ I'll be playing as the boy, though - Black. I can't stand the girl. DX

I like the new girl character, although her shorts are a bit weird xD
I couldn't see myself play as the boy character

I've been able to do pretty well in imported games. They only use the two alphabets (hiragana and katakana) that I'm fluent in in Pokemon games, so I can usually get around okay. Worse comes to worse I can break out my electronic dictionary for words I don't know.
