Street Fighter IV Sold Out In Japan Published by wes213 on Sunday, February 15, 2009
Tagged: Xbox 360,
We all knew that this classic game would have a huge fan boy buy out point but no one would have seen this game selling at this rate, never count out the nostalgia factor i guess.
JoyStiq.com reports: Man. Wow. We totally thought this one was going to be a clunker. Seriously, we gave the classic series appropriate fanfare whenever we received any news regarding it, but we were just doing it out of respect. We never thought that the Japanese game consuming populous would snatch up 86,000 copies of Street Fighter IV on its launch day alone. We were thinking it'd be more like a few hundy, maybe a thou by the weekend.
Capcom seems to be just as surprised as we are -- a community manager for the company recently reported that they were "overwhelmed by demand", and that the game had completely sold out in Japan. The only copies within the country's confines rest in a few boxes in Capcom's basement -- they'll apparently be sent out to retailers on Monday, and then snatched up with avarice usually associated with Turboman dolls.
