@RorschachAvenger actually something like this happened on the day of the Xbox launch. At the same location, there was a massive queue which was surprising to say the least. Turns out that it was the queue for the first season of 24 on DVD :/
Interestingly though, the smallest queue i’ve seen at Tsutaya was for the Nintendo DS launch (around 15 people). It was a Thursday launch of course but even so… and we all know how that turned out in the end

what if u were there to get a different game?
I didn’t know they shook hands in Japan. I don’t know much about Japanese culture.
the japanese actually make sense waiting till the day time to launch something instead of the fucking middle of the night which i will never go to!
i cant belive one person missed the like button
Three more days!
it would be awesome if they did this when DQ 9 came out over here
this game will come out in about 2 weeks!
this game is gonna be awesome. I went to the midnight release of ff13 and it was really fun so ill probably do the same for this one too.
man, not a single kid in line!
Customer number one was the man. Wonder what was going through his head.
Square Enix: Okay guys were cookin up a dragon quest game .
[6.21 SECONDS LATER]
Japenese peoples: OH GOD!!!!!!!
そこにナンパしたいな〜。
I would ask in a very polite way, a sign from Yuji Horii in my game box…
the guy in the black is Yuji Horii, the guy in the blue slime hawaiian shirt is Ryutaro Ichimura , the producer.
might have to reserve a copy for this one =P
Man, I can’t wait for an English version of Dragon Quest IX!
or the old man in the black?
was that yuji horii on the microphone in the blue shirt
Canadians should have more fun conventions like these.
The guy who was holding the #1 was so happy in all his otaku/nerdy glory. Good for him!
very so cooll good
japanese and their lines
But it isn’t nice on your pocket. Everything there is expensive.
I arrived in Japan on the release date but was unable to buy one because they were all SOLD OUT (I visited 7-Eleven, Kiosk, etc).
I managed to buy my DQIX game from Big Camera at Sapporo train station the following day.
It was quite a day to remember – arriving in Japan on the day a Dragon Quest game was released!
it shoulda been a national event
