I'm probably not getting this one. I recall playing both the Red and Blue versions of Pokémon in 1998 or 1999, but my interest never lived for so long that I would've actually finished the game.
The latest news from Nintendo Direct, several days ago:

The latter half of the video shows the latest release...
POKEMON X
and
POKEMON Y

October 2013, worldwide simultaneous release.

Glad that we don't have to wait 6 months after the japan release to play it. 8)
Don't know what version I'd want to get if I got a 3DS.
