If you want a chance to play Pokemon Black and/or White early and you can not translate from Japanese, you can have your chance at the Pokemon Mall Tour. Some major malls around the US will be hosting a special Pokemon even which, most notably, will let you play the game early.
Also at this event will be other things to do such as watching the newest Pokemon movie, Pokemon – Zoroark: Master of Illusions, for free. This will be your only chance to watch it on the big screen as well, as the movie will apparently not be releasing in theaters. Also there will be a scavenger hunt for kids (I don’t think big kids count) and meet some Pokemon characters.
Obviously the best opportunity here will be to play the game early, or in some malls cases, a little after the release (try before you buy?). The dates are as follows:
February 5th and 6th:
Westfield Southcenter in Seattle, Washington/ Westfield Southpark in Strongsville, Ohio.
February 12th and 13th:
Westfield Oakbridge in San Jose, California/ Wolfchase Galleria in Memphis, Tennessee.
February 19th and 20th:
Westfield Santa Anita in Arcadia, California/ Castleton Square in Indianapolis, Indiana.
February 26th and 27th:
Town Center at Aurora in Aurora, Colorado/ Franklin Mills in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
March 4th and 5th:
Westfield Garden State Plaza in Paramus, New Jersey.
March 5th and 6th:
Mall of America in Bloomington, Minnesota.
March 12th and 13th:
Grapevine Mills in Grapevine, Texas/ Discover Mills in Lawrenceville, Georgia.
March 19th and 20th:
Arizona Mills in Tempe, Arizona/ Orange Park Mall in Orange Park, Florida.
As you can see, they are stopping in two cities each week with the exception of the cities that overlap. This is a great chance to get to play the newest Pokemon early, which is very exciting in itself.
