Anyone have any idea when we will see the first reviews come in? Despite living in Japan I'm not too down on the Japanese gaming journalism scene, but would it be right to expect this week's issue of the magazine Famitsu Weekly (released on Thursday I believe) to be first, or is there some other publication/website that will probably publish a review before that?

The round-table infodump they held at what I think was PAX(?) was said to have an embargo (period of time in which journalists could not speak about the content) lasting until the release of the game, so it's possible we won't get any full articles or reviews until Friday at midnight. We'll likely have leaked information about the game before then, but I'm hard-pressed to believe they'll come from reviewers.

I'd guess the first reviewers will be people who get their copies early.

We'll likely get a leak of the Famitsu review tomorrow (official release on Thursday), maybe some other Japanese publications later this week.
It's likely the rest of the world will have review embargoes end on like October 1st.

Famitsu score: 9 / 9 / 9 / 10
What does he mean by "Nintendo didn't forget about the cheque"?
