The latest duo of monster titles gets dated for Japan.

If ever a couple of games were a sure bet to sell, then it would be Pokémon Diamond & Pearl, the fourth generation of handheld pocket monster titles that CoroCoro magazine has now revealed will hit Japan on September 28th.

No news on when the games will hit the West, though with a release date earlier than expected a Christmas release in Europe is not out of the question. We'll confirm for you officially when we can.
