So escapist, what version of the Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire remakes are you getting this Friday?

I currently have a pre-order on Alpha Sapphire, but I'm thinking of changing it to Omega Ruby

Alpha Sapphire. I was going to go with Omega Ruby, since it was my first Pokemon game back in the day. I decided to go with Alpha Sapphire, just because I love Kyroge. Even though I have him in the Pokebank, I still want to catch him legit-like. He's also a water type, so I love him even more.

Alpha Sapphire, because I love Kyogre that's why.
Also I think Team Aqua is better than Team Magma.

Omega Ruby for me.
I originally played Ruby, so might as well go with that remake. That and I've always liked Groudon more than Kyogre.

Omega Ruby, as I had Sapphire (and Emerald) and I'd like to see the game with the teams roles reversed. That's if I get it of course, might be too busy on Dragon Age 3 if it's as good as it's made out to be.

Going for Alpha Sapphire, but then again I will own both versions.

I'd play Alpha Sapphire first because Sapphire was the first one of that Gen. that I got and played the hell out of, so I will keep it the same. I don't actually remember using the legendary from either version that much. I don't really know, nor will I ever know since my original copies are borked due to the batteries in them not keeping a save file. :/

Waiting until I learn all the version exclusives before I decide. I prefer Kyogre over Groudon, but I generally don't use legendaries anyway, so I'd rather base my choice on what I want my team to be.

Do we know what the exclusives are at this stage?

Sapphire. Team Aqua is rad as hell. Also because I want a blue packaged Pokemon game and legendary to balance out my copy of Y with Yeveltal sitting on my shelf.

Alpha Sapphire since getting the 2nd game is my "tradition".

Alpha Sapphire for me but only because my mate is getting Omega Ruby (I originally had Ruby). I prefered Magma plan than Team Aqua (are they trying to make Waterworld a reality?).

It was a tough call for me but I went with Omega Ruby.
As a kid I had two versions of Sapphire, one version of Ruby, and one Emerald. So I have three Kygores and two Groudons. I simply choose Omega Ruby to even things out. I always liked Sappire more though since Team Aqua is awesome. I liked the legendaries equally, however.

Groudon is my all time favorite legendary so I'm going with Ruby, also Team Magma's costume is cooler than a bunch of pirates... both teams have dumb goals though

Omega Ruby, I like Team Magma more than Team Aqua, they have stylish Houndour hoodies.

I do prefer Kyogre over Groudon, but I don't care because I have them both in the Pokemon Bank anyway.

Also primal Groudon reminds me of this nightmare inducing version, which given the plot of that movie may not be a coincidence.

I'll have both at some point, but the one I'm getting first is Omega Ruby. I like Groudon a little more than Kyogre, plus I plan to bring an Oshawott from Pokemon Bank to be my designated water type. Plus, I always go for the first in the version duo Red, Gold, Ruby, Diamond(though I actually got Platinum), Black, Black 2, X, you get the drill.

All that being said, it really does not matter much in the end. Unless you vastly prefer the version mascot, or version exclusive Pokemon, it rarely makes a difference which version you choose.

I WAS going to get Omega Ruby, but then my Y save got corrupted and consequently lost everything. Removed my desire to play a Pokemon game for a while...

In the UK we have to wait until the 28th until they are released, but I will be getting both on the same day, but I will probably play Omega Ruby first.
