According to a scan from the October issue of Nintendo Power magazine, Toys "R" Us stores throughout the United States will distribute Mew to players' Pokémon games Sept. 30. The scan said the promotion was to celebrate the releases of the eighth movie and Mystery Dungeon games, both in September.

Yay!

Finally!


I was wondering when we would get the chance to receive Mew......


Anyway, I'm definitely bringing all my Pokemon games to Toys 'R Us on that day!!!! :-D

And I'm so glad that this isn't another "New York only" thing. ^^o

And I know exactly where to find one! ...wait. Are you still going to be here, then?
 
Hmm......

I'm not sure.


Our break's only 2 weeks long though, right (because of the summer quarter)? O.O

*is confused*
 
Yes, I am happy that I can finally attend something like this.

I asked this on SPPf, but I visit here more: Do the attendants at these things have extra GBAs to use? I'm asking because I have Emerald and FireRed, but I only have a DS Lite.
 
When I was in Japan in December 2004, I was able to borrow a GBA they were using to upload when my GBASP ran out of power.
 
Hmmm, how do they do these transfers? The last time I remember doing it
was via a machine at a Nintendo Mall tour back in 1999 or 2000 (I forgot).
Basically they inserted your game into a computer with a retrofitted gameboy slot.

Do they still do it that way, or is it via a link cable/mystery event?
Or.... is it one of those 'wait till you get there and see for yourself' type things?
 
Well, if this is gonna be anything like it was at JAA, when they transferred Celebi you had to have a free slot in your party (they provided the link cable). If I remember correctly, the lady who worked there told me that there was like, a set number of Celebi programmed into the program on the GBA. And the only thing you needed to have was your GBA and your Pokemon games.

And the funny thing was that the transfer of Celebi to your game pak only took about 15-20 seconds total!! I couldn't believe how fast it was!!!! O_O
 
Any time would be fine Nintendo Europe. Any time....

Yup. Any time at all.
 
Fantastic. Now I just have to hope that the local TRUs don't suck as much as they do.

America only? Crap, I live in Canada... T^T

Well it's a cool little fact that a majority of major Canadian cities are within
50 miles of the US border. However, that doesn't mean there's always a
major US city across those borders. What's the closest city in the US to you?
It might have a Toys R Us chain for you.
 
I know where a toys R us is, but I live, like, a hundred miles fom america. I guess it wouldn't hurt to check though.
 
Who knows, maybe Canadian Toys R Us stores have the event too.
A simple check wouldn't hurt.

I mean, NP does a Canadian circulation too, so it could refer to both.
 
Will this be a straight-to-your-party Mew download, or is the download actually the Old Sea Map---which would require you to go to Faraway Island and capture Mew yourself?

It's not like it matters (I have seven Master Balls from doing the Emerald clone glitch) but I'm curious.
