It came a bit later than that . Got it on Wednesday 11AM JST (2AM UTC) in Japan.

Hmm, I guess they were not ready for primetime.

Japan called...

Apple Music requires iTunes 12.2, which is still not available to Windows users 8D

Not on Hulu Japan yet :(

I am not saying they should have included SSDs but that they should have used the SATA III interface instead of the outdated SATA II one. That way, those who wish to use SSDs can actually benefit from them.

They also should have used SATA III interfaces so SSDs would be beneficial. Alas, cutting costs is the name of the game.

Cannot wait to play these games while watching Tokyo Olympics. Huzzah!

Does the web interface require Internet connectivity? If so, it is not that killer of a feature.

These were actually called GR Digital. The new line is just GR.

You would need to look farther into the past. Touch and H2 (also a drama) are two examples. I’m partial to Slow Step which covers softball and boxing and is only 5 episodes in length. All of these are based on manga by Mitsuru Adachi who is also the author of Cross Game mentioned above. They all deal with sports and…

Oh, the original Gamba, so much fun! The antagonist gave me the shivers!

Indeed. Ever since I switched to the Nexus 5, people sometimes complained about echoes on their side during voice calls. Dunno if it is only my handset or a widespread issue. The funny thing is that I had a similar issue with an LG phone during the dumbphone era back in 2003.

If you want a pocketable yet powerful camera at around the same price (or even cheaper) then better wait for the updated versoion of Ricoh GR (APS-C sensor). That camera is even more pocketable than Sony’s or Canon’s 1-inch offerings (which feel a bit uncomfortable in my jeans pockets, tbh). On the downside, you get a…

Meh, $948 MSRP for the RX100IV (an increase of $150 over III) and still no timelapse support.
