Nearly a year after launching in Japan and six months after the States, Pokemon Gold and Silver will hit UK shelves on the 6th of April. Nintendo could not give a reason for the delay in the titles being brought to Britain.
Many UK Poke-fans had to resort to paying over the odds for imported versions of the games, which sold a colossal 1.4 million units in its first week on sale in America.
New innovations to be added to the latest versions of the smash game series include Pokemon breeding (ooo-err!) and nocturnal Pokemon.
