As someone with retail battle scars SUPER shout out to the workers at @Nintendo_World for being as excited as everyone else. Totally dig it.

Last night was the launch celebration at Nintendo World for Pokemon X & Y and obviously the line was 5 avenues long for the event. It was fun though, and if you are in NYC I totally recommend you check it out since the entire store is Pokemon themed and there’s a cool History of Pokemon exhibit upstairs.

For those of you who can’t be there, I took some Instagram pics so you can live vicariously through me until you see it for yourself.

Anyway, I got the game at launch and my friend code is 2466-2307-5403! Leave yours in the comments so we can be Pokepals!
