Didn't they give FF3 the finger to produce more pokemon copies?

considering they are made by 2 different companies, probably not.

Charizard, no!

The OMG picture is from some Tokyo show. The sponser is American Home Direct. IT IS NOT THE POKEMAN LINES

According to the article AndriaSang posted, it's a picture taken when some Tokyo subway(?) station caught on fire and the power went out. Not videogame related at all.

edit: aaaaaaaand beaten

Yeah, or they at least reserved most carts for pokemon.

 

[M3wThr33]

Man, this will probably rival "The Longest Line" which was the opening for the first Apple Store in Japan. Google it.

 

[Neko Tsukimi]

Oooooh, yay for lines!

Ahh, I wonder if that couple will pose again with their baby and their newly acquired pokemans...

[sprsk]

Too bad no one at gaf was there to record the whole thing.


Actually i remember dcharlie mentioning wanting to check out todays lines on monday, wonder if he did.

 

[Illuminati]

Can it be confirmed that the massive fire and subsequent power outtage in Tokyo was directly correlated to stores running out of copies of Pokemon resulting in mass riots to overthrow the Japanese government?

 

[xaosslug]

in before inevitable "I said "wow" comment. :lol

I said "wow" indeed.

 

[HomShaBom]

Nintendo should have set up a area near Sony HQ to sell copies of the game.
