Out Today in Japan: Sonic Colors

The Final Piece of a Release Puzzle

Today was the day the littlest piece of the rest of the world was able to play Sonic Colors for the first time.

Japan retailers began selling both versions of the game today, on Nintendo Wii and DS.  To mark the occasion, the Japanese portal received an update today for more game information specific to that audience.  Sonic hasn’t had quite the brand impact in that country as it still does elsewhere in recent years, but every little bit should hopefully send the message to Sega that this is a 3D format worthy of participation and expansion.

VGChartz, the unofficial estimate site, does tally for Japan separate from the rest of Asia, so we’ll bring those numbers once made available.
