I really wouldn't extrapolate Splatoon fever at COMG! to the rest of Japan, since is the only place we know is taking pre-orders in the entire country, so it's quite biased.

Wasnt Chris on mediacreate thread said that people are going crazy for splatoon2 and are expecting huge pre orders to come (like alot stronger than people think). I thought i saw that somewhere?

Don't get me wrong. I mean, it's obvious that the behaviour of Splatoon 2 will be near what COMG! shows but not that exaggerated, though.

Ok no problem. But i believe in my over exaggerating predictions. Itll be close to 5mil lifetime ;) I will be right like i was with splatoon in the beginning :O

I doubt people from Tokyo or other big cities will go to Niigata prefecture to pre-order Splatoon, lol

Nah, the difference will be that when pre-orders for Splatoon opens nationwide, the rest of stores will "explode" that day (like when Pokemon opens pre-orders), while in Comg will be just a normal day.

Also, if lots of people ARE willing to travel like that to preorder, that would speak even more strongly to the craze, not downplay it.
