River City: Tokyo Rumble sold out on Natsume’s Amazon store, but will return; exceeding expectations
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 2 Comments
Yesterday, River City: Tokyo Rumble went up on Natsume’s Amazon store. This was the special physical version that’s packed with a keychain. It actually sold out already, but Natsume is working on a restock as soon as possible. A specific date hasn’t been determined, but it’ll be up on Amazon here as soon as more copies are in.
It’s good news for the publisher, as sales have “well exceeded what we thought the demand would be for physical copies.” Natsume apologized to those who aren’t able to purchase a copy, but you should keep an eye on that Amazon page for the restock.
Here’s the news from Natsume:
