Pokémon HeartGold, SoulSilver dated

Nintendo has announced Pokmon HeartGold and SoulSilver will be released in the UK on March 26th.

The platform holder also revealed the DS games will be bundled with the Pokwalker, a pedometer accessory that was included with the Japanese versions.

The Pokwalker translates gamers’ steps in experience points and currency for use in-game. Yesterday, Nintendo confirmed the peripheral would be packaged with the US editions as well.

Pokmon HeartGold and SoulSilver are the eagerly awaited remakes of 2001’s popular Pokmon Gold and Silver. The DS titles have already sold more than 3 million copies since launching in Japan last September.
