Compared with most parts of the world, Japan is in the future by a distance of some hours. Compared with European and American game release schedules, Japan's is sometimes years ahead (this is known as the "Final Fantasy V Phenomenon"). Very occasionally, however, Japan is outdated. Today is one of those days, as Japanese gamers at last get Capcom's Power Stone Collection for their PSPs -- even though Johnny Foreigner has been enjoying it for a whole month already.
Other notable new releases of the day, those worthy of our ¥ennage, are bullet-pointed:
- Tales of Destiny (remake heaven; PS2)
- Final Fantasy VI Advance (remake heaven; GBA)
- Power Stone Collection (remake heaven, once more for emphasis; PSP)
- Super Robot Taisen XO (not a remake, more of a rehash; Xbox 360)
