GameStop seeing “very steady level of demand” for Switch hardware and software

GameStop reported its latest financial results last week for Q1 2018. The company saw decreases across the board compared to the same period last year, which was largely boosted by Switch’s launch at the time.
There was absolutely no way GameStop could replicate the same sales with Switch this year simply due to the console launching in 2017. However, that doesn’t mean the retailer isn’t seeing a favorable performance with the console.

Okami HD Limited Edition pre-orders open (Japanese release)
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Capcom has much more expansive plans for the Switch edition of Okami HD in Japan. Even though the game will only be receiving a digital release in the west (unless a different decision is made within the next few months), Japan will have access to a physical version.
That includes a limited edition featuring a soundtrack CD with 22 pieces of music. Pre-orders are now open on Play-Asia here.
We also want to again stress that the Japanese version of Okami HD is not confirmed to include English. However, based on precedent, we do believe it’s likely. Capcom should confirm which languages are included closer to release, so stay tuned.
