I just gave that guy a warning. Then he decided to send me a nasty message and call me a douche. After that it was bye bye.

Getting back to topic, here is a report from IGN.

Japan Lines Up for Smash
Hundreds brave clear skies and unseasonable warmth.
by John Tanaka

January 30, 2008 - Nintendo may just have a hit on its hands with this "Smash Brothers" game. Released in Japan earlier today, Smash Bros. X (probably known as Smash Bros. Brawl where you live) got masses of consumers to line up outside of retailers prior to opening time -- a rare site for a game that isn't Dragon Quest or Final Fantasy.

Your IGN Japan headquarters near Tokyo's Shibuya train station has walkable access to two large Bic Camera outlets. While both managed lines of maybe a dozen or so for Wii Fit late last year, the scene for Smash Bros. today was far more hectic. At opening time, the larger of the two shops had at least one hundred people lined up to purchase the game from a special register that had been set up in the store front. Going up to the game section on the fourth floor, we found another 50 lined up there, most with Smash Bros. in hand.
