At one of the local Edion stores (Best Buy-ish) with a smallish game department they had at least seven machines left at 5pm. At a local game store they had four machines that I could see around the same time. The better gauge is the mega stores like Yodobashi or Bic Camera that have their systems clearly stacked behind the counter, but I didn't make it to any of those today. What is still so striking to me is the insanely Western bend of the launch lineup. |
It's sad, it used to be that many Japanese developed games did well both there and in the West, and though there are a few that still manage it (Resident Evil, MGS, Final Fantasy), many have gone solely to the Western side (Devil May Cry for example) or just stopped (like Onimusha). It would've been nice if Capcom would have got Dragon's Dogma 2 out for launch window as it would do well both sides of the world. Dark Souls 2 on PS4 would have done alright as well...
