Might as well just mention here that I plan on getting both versions.

So hyped for Mega Pidgeot and actually being able to "soar" in the sky!
Justykanna
Haven't 100% decided if I'm getting it at release, but I'll get it eventually. Probably gonna go with Omega Ruby, since I got Ruby when it originally came out.

Fun fact: I actually thought of NOT getting either game if they didn't return, lol.

Intending to buy Alpha Sapphire, though the earliest I'll do so is after Christmas. With Shin Megami Tensei IV, Persona Q and Shovel Knight coming out pretty soon as well, money's pretty tight as it is, and those three definitely take priority over a remake, as awesome as that one might be.
Pretty happy about the return of the Secret Base, though.

I'm going to get Alpha Sapphire, I still have my old Sapphire and Emerald version. :p

Added a link about the Super Secret Bases just in case you wanna read up on that or haven't read about it yet. Also changed the OP a bit.
Gumpy
If I get a 3DS I will probably get Omega Ruby cuz red.
Professor Prinny
I was thinking of getting Alpha Sapphire initially because I had the original Ruby but my mind got changed to getting Omega Ruby because of the Primal Groudon figurine.
Gonna be spending so much time on Secret Bases.

Uhh... shouldn't that pic be in the X/Y thread? I'd understand if you posted the Diancie event since (at the moment) you can only get it in X/Y (through the event, which is after the shiny Mega Gengar one actually, unless you're in Japan), and since Mega Diancie will only exist in OR/AS...
Navizel
well I got that when I pre-ordered my Alpha Sapphire soo idk

The shiny Mega Gengar is only an event because it ties in to a TCG thing.

Having so much love for Mega Steelix, finally a Pokemon which deserves it well.

This is just a reminder to those in the US that you need to sign up for the Pokemon.com newsletter before this Tuesday or else you won't get the demo code.

So hype for Tuesday fjskjdffkl, getting Alpha Sapphire on release!

Also I had no idea secret bases even existed until they were announced to return in the remakes. I feel like I've missed out ;_;

They were announced like a month or two ago, actually.

EDIT: There are other ways you can get a code just in case you forget to sign up for the newsletter (North America only).
Jinxy
So who's played the demo? Just checking if the reward mega is the same, I got a Glalie

Only Japan gets Mega Steelix.
Ciunek
Preordering Omega Ruby since my friend is getting Sapphire. Also I sure hope I get to play the demo, if it's even for people outside of US.
Jinxy
I don't think there's a region lock for the codes. If you have a FB account you might be able to get a code here.

Trash Boat
anyone needs a code for the demo? I almost forgot that I am still subscribed to it, so PM me if you want it.
Hika
I have an extra code if anyone wants as well, just pm me for it. claimed.

On topic, I'll be grabbing both of these babies, already put in the pre-order for them. Get to replay them both ten million times. <3
Navizel
I also have a code if anyone wants. I received the code late wtf.
[_TetsuyaKuro_]

But they get the Steelix.

But hey, at least that's a minor relief.

We'll probably get Mega Steelix in-game in some way or another (...even if it means an online/RL event distribution >_>).
Hika
No matter what, I'm going to make sure I get a Mega Steelix.

Honestly, I'm too hyped for Metagross <3

I'm getting Alpha Sapphire for a couple of reasons, it's blue and I love almost every shade of blue (including purples) and I very much prefer Kyogre over Groudon

The official Japanese site has announced that, while you can get the Eon Ticket for Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire through an event, if you do receive the Eon Ticket, you have the capability of sharing it through StreetPass, akin to how you could share it by mixing records in the original. You will never lose your Eon Ticket, however.
Edit @ 09:05: The Pokémon Company has announced the Eon Ticket Relay for the UK. This will begin with Junichi Masuda giving the Eon Ticket out at the launch event on Saturday November 29th. From there, 15 winners will be sent to various GAME stores to spread the Eon Ticket through StreetPass. More details are to be released on November 13th
Edit @ 16:14: It has also been announced that in the US, Serial Codes for the Eon Ticket will be given to Play! Pokémon Organisers and heads of StreetPass groups from November 21st. From there, the Eon Ticket can be StreetPassed to other players

Planning to go with Alpha Sapphire because Water is one of my favourite types anyway. I like the character design of Team Aqua (Pirates ♥) a lot more than Team Magma. And I definitely prefer Kyogre over Groudon.
Syndfell
Like many others, ill be getting OR cause it was my original gen 3 game xD. But is it bad im more excited to see if they will remake Emerald as well~
Norbi
I'm going to get Alpha Sapphire because I like the color blue better than red, and Kyogre is one of my favourite legendaries. I've only played Emerald back in the days, though. I've preordered the limited edition of the game a week ago or so.

To be honest, the original of this generation was the worst generation of all, I really hope this remake is going to make it awesome.
Katze
I pre-ordered Alpha Sapphire too since I like Kyogre, but I probably buy Omega Ruby too after some time just like I did with X and Y.

I have to say that I don't remember liking Hoenn that much either, everybody has their personal preferences. I think the reason I didn't like it that much was because I wasn't aware that a new Pokémon Edition is coming out and my father got me Sapphire back then and I just played it + I wasn't that much of a fan at that point. But now I'm super excited for the Remakes and I bet they'll be really great!

I doubt they'll do a remake of Emerald since the previous generational remakes never had the 3rd game.
