Bad luck for those that wanted it to be Pokemon.

Carindale 27 & 28 June
Pacific Fair 4 & 5 July

VIC
Southland 9 & 10 July
Fountain Gate 11 & 12 July

NSW
Chatswood 18 & 19 July
Parramatta 25 & 26 July

WA
Carousel 4 & 6 July

SA
Marion 18 & 19 July

NZ
Sylvia Park 8 & 9 August

Nice to see there's a tour for New Zealand this year, not that it really applies to most of us here.

So who's going and what dates? I personally should be going to all dates.

 

[Vyse]

I'll be at Genesis.
Enjoy your Pacific Fair tour.

Wouldn't mind heading along with my pokeymons and winning the Carindale one though rofl.

 

[Sieg]

Winning.

Carindale.

James lives in Brisbane.

You won't win. lol

 

[Zero]

So if I go up on the 18th to Chatswood, who would host me for a night and go to the tourney that Scoot and I are planning for the 19th?

EDIT: Hosting for 3 nights would be good too, need to stay in Sydney for Monday and Tuesday for UNSW Computer Forensics course thingy :]

I bought my Platinum yesterday, b prepard.

They're giving out the Secret Key for platinum to get the different Rotom forms. I'll probably go, but I don't know if I'll participate what with not owning any current gen Pokemon game (legitimately anyway).

 

[luke_atyeo]

I love how when there is a tour for anything and everything they always go everywhere in australia... EXCEPT FOR THE ****ING CAPITAL!

 

[Mic_128]

Tasmania and NT also aren't happy, I'd wager.

 

[luke_atyeo]

I feel their pain, but we're the capital FFS.

 

[Eagle]

In SA, Marion is 2 minutes away from me.

 

[Hotdog]

Is there gonna be brawl at this? if so I'm there!

 

[Vyse]

Nah. They did Brawl last year.
Platinum will probably be there this time.

When they had Brawl it was terrible. On Laggy HD's.
At least we met Billy through it lol.

 

[J-Birds]

I think ill go to this, im more of a Pokemon collector (think i only need like 5 more?) then a battler but iv been somewhat working on an ou team. The key aye i can get me a rotom-wash

 

[Mic_128]

Hey man, I was kicking *** there.

 

[Sieg]

All I can say to anyone going to the QLD ones is good luck because James will be there and he's pretty much the leader of Pokemon.

Worldwide.

 

[xXArrowXx]

i am not gonna show u my pokemons :X

dates coming up tho =P
maybe ill build a james counter team XP

 

[Bjay]

Well looks like it ended up being a Wii Sports Resort tour. =P

epic fail

new sony and microsoft motion control gimmicks absolutely crap on the wiimote, even with their new attachment (which should have been part of the wiimote in the first place and will no doubt cost at least $50)

 

[Vlade]

FAR OUT!!!

I really wanted it to be pokemon... :/

 

[Dekar289]

but you can still bring along platinum and get your crappy little rotom key to unlock various equally crap forms of a crap pokeman! =D

Can't speak for the PS3's but the 360 one is just a newfangled eyetoy. I don't see it ever being used for anything "core" How do you turn around in FPS's? Do you have to stand as if you're holding a gun?
