Well, Serebii has posted a new page detailing all the differences between Platinum and D/P. I also found a bunch of high quality screen-shots from the English version of Platinum and I thought I'd share them to boost the hype for its release 16 days from now!
They're pretty cool, too. I put them all in spoiler tags since there's 22 of them and they take up space.

| Some further scans have come out from the new CoroCoro, revealing more bits from the upcoming Mystery Dungeon - Explorers of the Sky. First, the magazine has confirmed once more that both Shaymin and Arceus will feature in this game. There's a few further details about the content of the game; First, there's now a secret Bazaar in Dungeons. Scattered around dungeons will be a secret staircase. This special staircase will take you to a special area filled with shops to give you a hand should you need it. This is run by Kirlia, Shedinja, Lickilicky, and Mime Jr. Next, there's now a cafe owned by a Spinda. This cafe allows you to purchase any beverages that can help to aid you in your crawls through the dungeons. These can boost your skills (similar to vitamins in the main games) and it allows you to access unexplored areas. There is also now a shop owned by Wynaut and Wobbuffet which will let you exchange and recycle items found in dungeons. The third special episode known, and one of the first shown, featuring Bidoof is to be called; Bidoof's Wish. We'll bring you more as it comes. |
How awesome is that? 
The secret bazaars sound pretty cool, too.| NYGBRIAN246 wrote: |

Yeah, only 8 days remain.
Please put what MMO stands for!

| * Within the new building; Spinda's Cafe, Spinda's Drink Stand gives access to the Unexplored Land and also allows you concoct your own drinks from Apples, Berries, and Seeds. * The store in Spinda's Cafe owned by Wobbuffet and Wynaut is called the Explorer Recycle and Big Treasure stalls This allows you to exchange your excess items for other items and also obtain Lottery Tickets for various items. The more items you recycle, the better items will be held in the stall. * The Secret Bazaar found in dungeons randomly has four different possible permutations known; - Mime Jr's Bazaar restores your Pokemon's health and hunger. - Swalot's gives you things called Luck Pockets. These Luck Pockets hold good and useful items within them. - Likilicky's Bazaar helps you remove your filled up items. It is currently unknown what happens to them. - Finally, Shedinja's Bazaar gives you a chance to escape the dungeon with few reprecussions. * You have the ability to transfer the species specific items from Explorers of Time/Darkness into Explorers of the Sky. When you do so, the item triples in amount, making it easier to get stronger items. * The storyline that adds Shaymin and Arceus to the main game is in addition to the previous storylines from the previous games, meaning you can play as your main characters within them. The dungeon Shaymin is in a new dungeon called Sky Summit. * The Bidoof's Wish special episode has you team up with a Snover whom gives Bidoof a map to a new dungeon; Star Cave. This dungeon is exclusive to this mission and the storyline for this episode involves the Pokemon Jirachi. * A new feature in the game's main menu is called the Sky Jukebox. This will allow you to play the music utilized within the game |

*Gasp* Only eight days remain!? I didn't know that! And I even have a ticker sig!
I have a question for everyone out there: Does anyone know when the guide book for Platinum is releasing? I checked Toys R Us, and it says it will ship on the 17th of March. Does that mean they already have it in the store? Plus, can anyone recommend which guide is better: Prima or Nintendo? I used the Nintendo guide for Diamond/Pearl, but I cannot find the Nintendo guide for Platinum. I can only find Prima.

| you mean like your standard pokemon game only that there are other trainers on the cities/routes you can battle, that maybe, just maybe could somehow work. Also, the biggest problem for that would be lag, seeing how Nintendo's WiFi lags with just 4 people, an MMO could easily be stronger than Nintendo's servers. |

I also can just wish I can get this stuff. We don't have a Wal-Mart close by where I live, so I reserved mine at Toys R Us. I can just hope that I'll get everything next week. But I do remember for Diamond and Pearl, Toys R Us gave out specials cases and styluses, too.
