Gaming magazine Famitsu has given Pokémon Black and White Versions perfect scores as seen in a photo of the newest edition of the magazine. The image that Bulbanews has located is too small to be accurately translated in full at this point. The reviewers, however, appear to be highly impressed with the fresh approach that the game has taken, from the graphics to the new features to the diversity of the Pokémon. The reviewers were also impressed by the Wi-Fi and PC features.

Only 14 other games have received a perfect score of 40/40, the first of which was The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, and the most recent being Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker.

In comparison, the debut games of Generation IV, Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Versions, scored 35 out of 40. Prior to that, Generation III's debut games Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions only scored 34 out of 40.
