Well usually each version has it's own star pokemon on the cover.... so what is it for these? I think that would help with my decision at least.

In Japan, White is associated with death, and morbid ***, import White. In the U.S., Black is associated with the same things. Buy Black in english.

only two new pokemon were released so far (maybe one more coming this sunday)

Zoroa/Zorua


Zoroark

Zoroa is 1st Evolution and Zoroark is 2nd Evolution

i'm not gonna start rumors but i won't doubt that'll be the cover of Pokemon Black and that this sunday's pokemon will be the cover pokemon for Pokemon White.

Get White in JP, and Black in Engrish.

If you like White, then you'll probably like Black more because Black looks more badass. I'd rather have the badass thing in English.

But at the same time, there are usually better things in the Japanese version...so hmmm.

I'd get Black, but I am black, so I'm bias.

Gotta get White and play it first.. You know what they say; "Once you go black, you never go back."

Biased because you're white? That makes you racist.
I wish I could read JP to get JP versions. I can't stand going through the game just winging it and not understanding what or why I'm doing whatever I am doing.

Hmmm... Pokemon? No FFXI for me any more so like what's the next best thing to FFXI? That's right... Pokemon... hmmm... I suppose I'll be buying a pokemon game soon too @_@;;; Oh the irony of not wanting to waste your time playing video games only leads to more video games :X I'll buy the white version I suppose. But that's cuz I see white as pure, but then again I suppose I'm biased too ><;;

I know that, but still, lol.
If the numbers were still there and just a picture to show what's a physical and special attack, I could do it.

ダマゲ９０ (assume that means damage)
アックラ ８５％ (assume that means accuracy)

テｈｔレｈジェ３０％
(assuming that means chance of Poison)

I know that's nonsense, but if it was like that, I think I could tolerate it.

My friend has a hacked DS where he can download JP games, so I assumed you had the same.

I've never heard of it. What I have is a cartridge that you can download games to, then the DS just loads it as if it were a game.
