Hello, everyone!<br />

<br />

Nintendo has announced through a press release that the launch of Pokemon HeartGold and SoulSilver versions has been postponed to an unknown date.<br />

<br />

"We have found out that some pre-release copies of Pokémon HeartGold & Pokémon SoulSilver from Holland and the Dutch-speaking part of Belgium not function properly.<br />

The quality of our products is important, so we take problems very seriously.<br />

That's why we have delayed the release of Pokémon HeartGold & Pokémon SoulSilver in Holland and the Dutch-speaking part of Belgium.<br />

<br />

When we find more information, we will let you know. <br />

We apologize for these problems and hope for your understanding.<br />

<br />

The games will be released as planned in the French-speaking part of Belgium and the rest of Europe on March 26th."<img align="right" alt="HG/SS Logo" height="115" src="http://mediacontent.nintendo-europe.com/NOE/images/news/2009/NI_PokemonHGnSSPR_enGB.png" width="157" /></p>

Why is this? The Dutch version doesn't differ a lot from the UK version, does it?

I thought that it was the same version like the UK one...

I think the game will actually be out next week... To me it's just a "promotional stunt" you know, with the Arceus event coming out in Flanders next weekend... Maybe if the event and release are at the same day, people who pick up the event are more likely to buy the new game ...

Still strange that they would postpone it.

They pre-released some games, but in some of those games there was a bug. But what you say about that they would release it (again) next saterday, is a option.

If HG/SS comes out later than the Yellow Forest event, will we get another chance of getting it? *-)

You're on ProjectPokemon there, so obviously, yes.

well well...

Look at this now, Nintendo announced that the release will be next weekend, 2th April...

Seriously... Now i'm even more convinced that it's nothing to do with an error but that it's just a promotional stunt!
