AkibaBlog

PSP "Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G" was released on the 27th. In Nipponbashi, Osaka, it was really popular and thus, sold out. In Akihabara, at the night of the release, it was sold out in all stores. A staff at a store told me "March is an accounting period for Capcom, so since it has already achieved its budget, the company tries to cut down the number of shipment that talked through internet, and actually, it seems like a true story."

PSP "Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G" by Capcom was released on the 27th.

"Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G" is, according to GameWatch, an extended version of PSP hunting action, "Monster Hunter Portable 2nd," which was released in February 2007. New monsters and the rank quest of "G grade" have added: there are also some new elements that are added. Of course, you can play with the characters that were in the last work."

In Nipponbashi, Osaka, it was really popular and thus, sold out. In Akihabara, at the night of the release, it was sold out in all stores such as Sofmap Main and AM Branches, Asobit Game City and Chara City, Messe Sanoo Main Branch, Ishimaru Game One, Medialand Akihabara, Gamers Main Branch, and Lammtarra Akihabara. I saw some people who saw the announcement of sold out of "Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G," called somebody, and left the store right away few times.

Famitsu.com writes "it has been selling very well- in Amazon- more than we expected. But, a staff at a store told me "our store couldn't get the product as much as we wanted. March is an accounting period for Capcom, so since it has already achieved its budget, the company tries to cut down the number of shipment that talked through internet, and actually, it seems like a true story."

On the market place at Amazon, the price of the "Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G" has become 11,480yen ($115=99yen) as of 28th in the morning. However, at the night of the day of its release, the price for buy back was 3,300yen ($33=100yen), so it didn't jump the price. Game-no-urabanashi-san says "the answer by the company about the next delivery of "Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G" is the beginning of April."
