Nintendo DSi at Midnight

Yes, my husband is going to go pick up his DSi at midnight.

I wonder if he'll be the only 38-year-old there.

Platinum Not Compatible with Pokemon Ranch

Well, it turns out that the American version of the Pokemon Platinum is not compatible with Pokemon Ranch.

There are some rumors here and there that the update will come out in the next few days. Others say that it will be a couple months.

In the meantime, I'll save up my pokemon to deposit on the Ranch when the update comes through.

Pokemon Ranch for the Wii

We discovered Pokemon Ranch for the Wii today! How completely and totally adorable. Every day, the ranch hand brings a new pokemon to hang out with the Miis at the ranch. We can also transfer pokemon from our Diamond or Pearl games. The ranch goes up levels, giving us more space to play with the pokemon. And our friends on the Wii network can visit us.

All the kids love it. But my daughter is completely in love. And when we found out that we can make the pokemon go on parade, with streaming confetti, she just about lost it.

Our daughter's love for Pokemon is just about the cutest thing on the planet.

Pokemon Manga Coming Soon

Pokemon Adventures, Volume 1 has my daughter's name written all over it. Pokemon and a comic book at once? OMG.

Pokemon MMORPG?

Wouldn't it be cool if there was an official Pokemon online role playing game? Well, unfortunately, there isn't one being developed any time soon. I bet it would be more popular than Webkinz or Club Penguin.

Pokemon Platinum Launch Party Spectacular in New York

If you are lucky enough to live in New York, and you're a Pokemon fan, there's a party waiting for you!

On March 21st at the Pokemon World Store in Rockefeller Plaza, at 12-4, you can experience Pokemon in full force! They are even encouraging people to come dressed up as their favorite Pokemon character.

We're on the west coast, so we're not going to be there, unfortunately. If we lived in or near New York, we would definitely be partying with all the other Pokemon fans.

Pokemon Platinum Official Game Guide

If you pre-ordered Pokemon platinum, like us, don't forget to get the official game guide.

Although I don't like to use the game guides when I first start playing the Pokemon adventures, my kids like to read all about the secrets. So, when I get stuck, I'll ask my daughter and she'll know exactly how to get through an area or to get a special pokemon.

Sometimes it's nice when our kids know more than we do.

Free Pokemon Game Online - Pokemon Indigo

Well this looks snazzy! A free, online pokemon game. It's called Pokemon Indigo. It doesn't require downloads, and it doesn't matter which system or browser you use (according to the site).

Have you played it? Any good? I hope my daughter doesn't see this, or I might have to peel her off the computer.

Trading Pokemon on the Nintendo DS

This nice guy is offering his pokemon to people over wifi. I'm having trouble understanding how this works. I can hook up to other DS' with wifi, but is there some central network or something?

Anyone know how I can get a "box" from this person offering to trade his pokemon?

Thanks!

Pokemon Master Trainer Game

I saw a review for Pokemon Master Trainer and thought that maybe there was a new Pokemon board game available.

It's actually from 2001, and they are trying to sell it for $100! We've had a copy of this game for a long time. We found it at a garage sale for $1. Anyone wanna buy it from us for half the price of this other guy?

Seriously, though, it's not that great of a game, but the kids *love* it. So if you can find a cheap copy, and you have a Pokemon fan in the house, it's worth it.

Amazon has some copies for only $15. Maybe that's a good way to go if you can't find one at a garage sale.

What Does Pokemon Platinum Look Like?

I was wondering if Pokemon Platinum for the DS will be just like all the other Pokemons. Well, it looks like they kept the classic Pokemon feel, but upgraded the graphics. Maybe even has some 3D effects going on. Can't wait!

Pokemon Platinum For You and Me - NOT!

For some reason, we had it in our head that the Pokemon Platinum was released yesterday. Imagine my bummed-outed-ness when I discovered that it's not due out until March 22nd.

Actually, I'm surprised at how bummed I am. I thought I was done with Pokemon and this game was for my hubby and daughter. Hmmm...
