Well I did see the news earlier but I'm so excited *A* <3 I've always been a pokefan since I've watched the anime, bought the games, and bought the trading card game |3 lols and even went out and got many pokemon collectibles ... (even the ones you get at 99 cents stores.... lol) but dammit I WANT THESE GAMES. It's a nice date to get planned on release because it's a month after my birthday 8D I think what I'm going to do again is buy one of the games in Japanese and then get the other one in English when it comes out *A* since it's always so fun getting a game before others *ohohoho* *shot and killed by a no-moonspeak mob*

That sounds suspiciously like a bootleg, actually. They're pretty common, especially among the older Pokémon games. Chances are GameFreak and Nintendo had nothing to do with the creation of that game, so this Pokémon Black probably won't be anything like it.
Unless maybe you mean this? If I recall, it was packaged in a black cartridge, but I don't think I've ever heard anyone refer to it as Pokémon Black.
A lot of people have been saying this. It seems most people were disappointed with the Pokemon the last go round. Hopefully they come up with some good memorable Pokemon this time.
I will undoubtedly buy this. More money the Pokemon franchise is sucking out of me.
But a fifth generation? The Pokemon lost their charm, personally, by the fourth generation. :/ I love the first and second generation of Pokemon, but I will not get my hopes up for the fifth generation (as I was disappointed with the fourth generation and am likely to repeat this). Still, I can't wait for the games. I'll still play it as a loyal Poketard.

An new Poke game already? Wow...(Though I guess HeartGold and SoulSilver HAVE been out for awhile now...) Wonder what they'll think of for the new Pokemon this time...
And the names I have to admit doesn’t sound very interesting. But maybe most likely I shall be proved wrong~
tbh, I think that Black and White are pretty boring names. I'm not exactly getting into it, I mean don't get wrong I love pokemon like every other poketard out there but Pokemon has almost thrown me off the wagon by replacing Kris with Kotone in SS/HG =___=
But then again the title could be a bit deeper like Timber said..
But none the less I'm probably gonna go buy it. more money out the door though D:
I honestly think that Pokemon is gonna get slaughtered more and more if more generations of Pokemon come out. More ridiculous looking pokemon with ridiculous sounding names. like Purugly? Lickylicky? come on... don't kill Pokemon for me please! D:
Personally, I've got my fingers crossed for a female professor named Willow. I've been hoping for it since before Diamond and Pearl, but I figure it's about time.
Wahoo, new games! But the names are kinda un-original, but oh well. X3 However, I did promise myself that I wouldn't buy anymore Pokémon things after the remakes of Silver and Gold...But we'll see. If it has the new Pokémon I want I'll definitely grab it.
And I'll go ahead and snag my own first comment here as a preemptive "no seriously guys."
So the joke around the internet appears to be that these titles are perceived as racist. People are talking about how it'll be OH SO SCANDALOUS and there's absolutely NO WAY the US will be willing to release games under such horrifically discriminating titles.
I did a little research, turns out that Black and White are actually words they use to describe actual colors. What's more, it's been that way since long before said words became slang for different skin pigmentations. The more you know, am I right, people?

I think the answer lies with the fact that they dropped that bit long ago. >_>

That's true. The last time there was a female professor was in the anime with Prof. Ivy.

It doesn't matter what the name is, as long as it says Pokemon, people will still buy it.

Personally, I think I'll go Black. And I don't expect to go back.
Alright, I think it's out of our systems now.

A drawback to colors, huh? ^_^
I'm more interested where this will take place and what tree will the professor be named after.

Anyway, in short, don't bother pointing this one out, because we already know and it's already not funny. Michael Jackson told us we shouldn't care about it eons ago.
Besides, they already released Pokémon Yellow eleven years ago. If these are racist, what makes that okay?
