Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire Demo Details and 2DS Bundles

Phew, long title! Details for the European Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire demo codes have been revealed and the English speakers in the United Kingdom will be getting their codes through the Nintendo Official Store, GAME, Amazon, ShopTo, and a few other various locations. Belgium, Italy, the Netherlands, and Portugal all will be getting the demo as well, although the code distribution differs. Be sure to check out details if you live in one of those countries through the official site.

Also, the wonderful 2DS models seen above have been announced for Europe. If only they would make these colors for the new 3DS…

FEATURED THREAD: ORAS Hype by Oshawott

ps- What was your favorite color for a Nintendo portable? I’ve owned the glacier GBA, flame GBA SP, silver DS phat, black DSi, red 3DS (JP), and red XY 3DS XL (US)…. and I have to say my favorite may have been the flame GBA SP, although the Pokémon 3DS is almost as good.

  1. Can’t wait! What could the new mega be? My guess is it’s a poke that’s normally unobtainable in game, just like Torchic was for X & Y

  2. Just realized the clear 2DS(es) are a reference to Ruby and Sapphire’s original game cartridge design. They were clear red and blue, respectively, in a similar fashion as the promo 2DS

  3. I swear to freakin Archie if we get this 2DS bullshit and not the N3DS, there will be rage released upon Nintendo and GF.

  4. Why is only Europe getting good stuff :c .. … they got the Hyrule Warriors scarf, this, and I could have sworn I heard they’re getting some other cool exclusive stuff ;-; makes me jealous. i guess year of europe ?

  5. I never had any special edition handhelds by Nintendo. I got a silver GBA for my birthday one year, but it was faulty and would turn off and wouldn’t turn back on unless you flipped the switch a few times. My parents took it back and got me a clear one since they were out of the silver. My sister knocked my new one into the toilet…. Somehow, it still worked. I think it still does.

  6. Europe is probably supplying Japan with the dope, that’s why were getting so much of the merchandise. I won’t be getting this because I’m cheap and I already have a 2DS. Just need a stylus. Please donate ;~;
    Also, Nintendo hates Murica. 🙂

    • It’s true. Everyone else gets figurines…. We get card board posters. Or as I saw on a serebii forum this morning, “car-bored.” The only thing that will make this better is if we get the limited edition N3DS. Preferably in XLs, but I will settle for the regular. Just give us something good. ;-;

  8. I love this idea. It basically fixes the complaint of the game cards being a solid colour. Europe & Japan has rekted American pre-orders. Still, I wish the system was a 3DS or 3DS XL. Still; it’s dope.

    I don’t know if I could get the demo. I hope someone covers it all on YouTube! Yet, I’m going to try my best to receive. I guess I’m really feeling it! Also, my favorite colours for Nintendo Systems are Black or Red!

  9. I wonder why people complained bout post game
    R/S had only battle tower
    D/P had battle tower and 2 useless areas

    E and PT changed as will Z

  10. You know something. To this day I have never used Mega Pinsir, Charizard X, Mawile, Lucario. I used both Zard Y and Kang once. The only so called over powered Mega i have used properly is Mega Gengar.
    I tend to stick to things like Mega Aggron, Heracross, Venusaur and Blastoise

  11. Have quite a bit of work to do so I won’t be on for a few hours.
    Therefore, I will not respond to any PMs during this time.
    Nor will I be on my Twitter.
    And yes I have a twitter, it’s PJNDicie. If you follow me I’ll follow you back 😉

  12. Let’s have a moment of silence for Nintendo on its 125th Anniversary! My journey started with the Game Boy Advance, and I have the original manuals of my favorite games (in good condition) on my wall for all eternity. Time to perform the Drill Dozer Salute! (cue Four Remaining Diamonds song)

  13. Tipping is a superstition and the weird phenomenon that if people truly believe in it it somehow works for them and those who don’t it won’t ever work

  14. i was sitting here thinking about smash DLC that could come with Smash if it ever did
    what if we did indeed get A Newcomer Pack and Veteran Pack but also Assist Trophy Pack… It would basically be Assit Trophies from Brawl that didn’t return as playable Fighter which could Be Issac from Golden suns and Jill from Drill Dozer

  15. Can’t for that badass moment in ORAS to reach the pinnacle of the battle pyramid and see Brandon staring at the scarlet red sun waiting to crush our dreams in our hopes to earn his symbol

  16. Two girls in my school are dating each other just for attention because they lost all of their friends and nobody likes them anymore.
    This honestly pisses me off so much because now people are going to think other gay couples in my school are just doing it for attention.
    This is lower than low.

  18. What if Sycamore’s office green-lit a bunch of future mega’s?? He studies mega evolution and he has up a bunch of paintings like Audino (who didn’t get a mega in XY), Gigalith, Leavanny, and a few others.

    • Dude!
      1. Find a reset bag.
      2. Save the game.
      3. Use the reset bag.
      4. Check what are the EV’s subtracted
      5. Reset the game to get your reset bag and EVs back.

      Obviously this is X&Y only. No way to check in earlier games short of using Pokesav.

  23. Oh and in regards to this news, I find it cool, but at the same time a huge missed opportunity. Cartridges like these for ORAS would’ve been epic and an extremely nostalgic throwback. Oh well

  24. Wat if you are all just of my imagtionation and I’m repeatly responding to myself? and the mods are there just like “what the hell is wroong with this guy?”

  25. I saw some campaign ad earlier (can’t remember who it was for or whatever) but it said that Rick Scott (governor of Fl) was doing some “shady business”. At the end it said “We don’t need any shade in the sunshine state.” (there was also “#ShadyRick” at the top) Thought it was a pretty good burn 😛

  26. There’s probably lower user base for NZ/Australia so the N3DS is coming out there first. They are unable to produce enough for huger markets like US/Europe.

    Wait, since my country is closer to Japan and also have a smaller market, will I get an earlier release too? In NTSC? HMMMMMMMMMM…

  27. Something interesting? Just last week I had a dream combining the gameplay of Five Nights at Freddy’s with the ghost of P.T. — in it, I fail and there’s a gruesome game over sequence at the quarry where the P.T. ghost murders the Freddy’s security guard onscreen.

  33. I really hope the Elite Four is difficult this time. Kalos had so many wimpy trainers. Viola’s Surskit was the most difficult thing. And after Black/Black 2’s leagues, I was extremely disappointed.

  34. I have a confession.

    I didn’t like the music, except battle music, originally. It sounded like bleh and gave me headaches to the point of nausea. ;~; Yay for new technologies!

  35. I finally figured out why i love new Maxie so much!

  36. Okay remember how we figured Contests would come back again, with probably new Ribbons added to our pokes after we win them? Based on the fact that transfered contests ribbons from previous games turned into a Commemorative Ribbon?

    Well I think Battle Tower will be in ORAS instead of Battle Frontier, not only because Battle Tower was in the originals, but also because if you transfer Battle Tower ribbons to XY, it turns into a battle tower commeorative ribbon LOL. New battle tower ribbons on the way? I think yes. Get ready for disappointment hoenn fanboys LMAO!!

  37. S-o-o-o.
    I’m looking for some battle ready Pokemon and have a Shiny Kyogre for trade that I will give for any two of them.
    I need a SubPunch (Intimidate) Mawile, an Aegislash, a Protean Greninja, a Trick Room Aromatisse, and a Garchomp.
    If you could help out it would be great.
    I also have other Shinies if someone takes the Kyogre.

  41. I’m going to go to school soon. I’ll leave you with a question that (depending on your answer) may not be pokemon related.

    Which video game took you the longest to beat?

    For me, it was Spider-Man for the GBA. It took me a year to beat it because I rage quit from it when I was stuck in this one level and only had zero lives left. I still don’t know how I made it past that level when I got back to it. xD

  43. A long time ago, my friend and I were playing Pokemon FireRed/LeafGreen on the bus. He had his IGN as ACE and mine was ALEX. We were playing along side each other. He encountered a Shiny Mankey and caught it. He even remembered the ID number. We were really excited, but me and my friend didn’t really know the value of shines, so my friend traded it to his brother. He transferred it to Pokemon Diamond, and traded it to his friend. His friend trained it up, used it in competitive battling, transferred it to Pokemon Black. He then traded it to someone on the internet, who apparently transferred it to Pokemon Bank, transferred it to Pokemon X and Y, Wonder Traded it out to please someone.

    About a month later, my friend was Wonder Trading away some Marrils from his MM and got a Shiny Primape. It’s OT was ACE and it’s ID no. was the exact same as the Mankey he caught in FireRed.

  44. with the release of Gamecube port maybe the day of smash 4 for wii u we could see announcement of a certain Nintendo Character fighting game from the gamecube to be one of the first gamecube VC?

  45. Cant wait for that epic ending battle between me and steven: each having our last pokemon. Sceptile or ballade and his metagross. Both are at its final point so we both tip it off the edge and push them to mega evolution. With the driving theme pumping both players, an origin moment happens with a combo of meteor mash vs mega sceptile/gallade and whoever went first won

  46. I’m curious about Pokemon Nationals. How do you get in? My dad asked why I haven’t gone and I’m all like “because you don’t give a shit and wouldn’t let me if I asked.”

  47. Why are people hating on Smogon? I mean, their singles tiers make sense which is why it’s being played a lot. Now if people don’t like it, why don’t they just start their own singles metagame and see if it takes off!? If people believe in it, they will play it.

    An example is Pokébattle.

  49. The demo looks like it partially takes place in the cave outside of Mossdeep as well. The Mega Pokemon we get is probably going to be one related to that area. My guess is it will be Jirachi, Deoxys, or possibly Walrein…. 😡
