Sega opens flagship store in Tokyo -.

It is almost expected that Japanese video game companies will open merchandising stores around the world. Capcom has Stores here and there, so does Bandai Namco, and Nintendo also recently opened its second U.S. location. Now Sega seems to be looking for action in action.

As noted on social media, the publisher plans to open a flagship Store in Japan in the near future. There is no word on the exact location or venue of choice, nor when we can expect the Store to open its doors, but there have been previous reports from VGC claiming that the Store will appear in the Shibuya Parco, which is also home to Nintendo, Capcom and Pokémon stores.

This report also claimed that the Sega Store will open this summer, which is still a possibility, even though it may be a bit ambitious considering that it has only just been correctly announced. As for what it might contain, expect lots of Sonic the Hedgehog items for one, since the character is still Sega’s mascot, as well as lots of goodies from the other major franchises, whether it’s Like a Dragon and Persona, and all the brands featured in the merchandising, toy and apparel options.
