StarCraft II is out. People are buying it. People are playing it. Not everybody, though. Japan, for example.
Amazon rankings are sample set of Amazon customers, but they are also a good measure to see what has captured the imagination of the buying public. Here is Amazon.com:
Amazon UK:
Amazon Canada:
Amazon Germany:
Amazon France:
And Amazon Japan, where the number one title is the latest game from visual novel maker Type Moon!
While StarCraft II is not getting a localized Japanese language release — hence, the tepid interest. However, it is possible to play the game on U.S. servers from Japan.
