Wow, not even Belfast...

If it was in Belfast I think I would make the effort to go up. It could be a fun day out if a group of us meet up for it. That's if it comes to Belfast of course lol

I think Ireland is just too small .. not enough pokemon fans? ...Not to mention ..a few will go to the UK for this .. if you can pick up a cheap ticket ...

I do wish they included those event Gamestop downloads here too though!! ..Surely that can't be difficult >.< ..or anyway too costly on their part ... ]=
