Ace Attorney, you're killing me over here!



 



Good day for Ace Attorney.



Look at AA6! Head to head with AA5.



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

I just realized that there're just 14 Comg stores at the moment opened (they were 16 stores when this thread was made, and I'm not sure if they were more before). That means that at least two stores have closed since then, and that's something that can explain why the ratio is better now than before, since less stores are being tracked.

Since 2013, I've been living in Japan and I've seen like 4-5 game stores closing so far, and some others just reduced its space on shelves and they're placing different products instead (smartphones or toys). That really tells you how the japanese game market is dying, and everyday it passes there're less and less game stores.

I don't know if I commented this before but there was, at least, one COMG! store out of Niigata prefecture, in Ishikawa if I recall correctly.

The interesting thing is that reading your comment, I immediately asked about that store if it could possibly also be closed, and I was told it is still open. But, yeah. I think it's kinda depressing this situation all around.

The closing of retail stores also correlate with higher digital sales. Not many benefit from digital, but I am afraid it will turn out much like the music industry. With physical becoming more niche.
