    Guys I didn't quite understand how to get the games code . Do I need to actually go to the stores in order to get it or I can have it via the network or any other way ?

    Ugh why can't they just put the demo up on the eshop to be downloaded by anyone easily, instead of all this jumping through hoops nonsense. At least it seems more reasonable than the Smash Bros demo

    Anyway, how do I get myself in these UK databases?

    I guess the NA will need you to go to Gamestop or EBGames as always. And how are you getting a code from amazon ?

  • Seems most of the ways for Europe to get the Demo are to attend conventions, or buy magazines/have a subscription: Edit @ 09:10: They have also revealed details on the demo in Europe, coming in various areas on October 15th. The Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire Special Demo Version will be available in the UK from GAME, Amazon, Smyth Toys Superstores, ShopTo and the Nintendo UK Official Store from the 15th October until launch. The codes will then also be made available through a number of other partners including Wikia, Bin Weevils and Nintendo Life until mid-November. Amazon, Smyths Toys, ShopTo and Nintendo UK Official Store will be sending these codes out to fans via their internal databases. GAME Stores will distribute their codes Nationwide via Nintendo Zone.

    Thus far we also know Japan can get their's from Corocoro.
    I sure hope that it'll be easier in America. Like going to Gamestop to get the code.

  • You'll most likely get the code from Amazon is you pre-ordered. You may get an email and maybe it will give you a code, who knows.

    That makes more sense then just sending out codes to everyone who has an Amazon account or an account with the other places :P Though they may want to use the demo to advertise to more people, I don't know. Either way I only need one code...

    And I wanted to just buy the game on eShop since I had to pre-order Smash Bros Wii U so I could have something to play meanwhile, just like I will do with Bayonetta 2 and Fantasy Life.

  • Moreover usually demos do not have any funcionality that might enable you to send the demo save-data to an actual game. Let's say you train a Pokemon during the demo... then that's a Pokemon you know you're not getting back.
    Someone correct me if I'm wrong please :)

    Obviously I don't know for sure, but it seems like maybe they would let you use Pokemon Bank if that was the case?

    I really hope I can say this as I am playing the demo,

    "Holy S***! That Mega Milotic is Beautiful!"

    Hmm, so I am hoping for an oceanic scenery for the mega reveal, but it seems like they would take this time to reveal a legendary pokemon, so perhaps you right about Deoxys, or even Jirachi in relation to the Space Center.

    YES! Totally agree lol.

  • I don't know if I like the fact that they're giving a demo out. Hopefully, it plays out in their favor and more buy the game because of it.

    Kinda annoying how they're not just putting it up on the e-shop. I wonder how the 'play every day' reward will work if everyone is getting it at slightly different times? Will it be everyday after release, or maybe even every day after the demo has been downloaded? Hopefully in the US/Australia the demo code will be available from Gamespot/EB, I don't wanna go to too much trouble just for a demo version.

  • Well the Demo may have more in it then you think. They want to reward people who play it everyday right, it wouldnt make any sense unless they planned on having a pretty big chunk in the game for us all to play, otherwise that would make the whole "Play Everyday" Reward thing pointless.
