RPGs of the Week: Shipping July 15

With E3 continuing all this week, it shouldn't surprise you that almost nothing is getting released this week in North America, least of all RPGs.

For Japan, on the other hand, it's life as usual.

Though the Japanese release list may look vast, be aware that only 3 of the games on the list are actually new.

...2 if you count Dragon Quest V as another port/re-release.

...Only 1 if you played the original Tears to Tiara on PC back in 2005. (It's a Hentai Game, just so you know before you go Googling it at work.)

...And that 1 is a crappy Might and Magic game.

Yeah, Japan has it just as bad as you this week, so don't feel too bad.
