The epicenter was near the city of Honshu, approximately 200 miles from Tokyo.  A tsunami warning has been issued by the Japanese government as well as for America&#8217;s west coast.  Furthermore, countries including Russia, Philippines, Taiwan, Guam, and Indonesia need to be cautious.<\/p>\n<p>Dozens are dead, bodies are washing up on shore, nuclear power plants are being shut down, and traffic has hit a stop due to so many roads simply collapsing.  Video game companies including Nintendo, Capcom, Konami, Sony, and Namco to name a few, are all giants in Japan and though already contacted by me, have not responded back just yet.  I wish for the well being of everyone in Japan right now, as well as its neighbors.<\/p>\n<p>Not if, but when I hear back from friends across the Pacific, I will let you know.  Paul Gale Network is very largely a video game news website and with so many companies having a foundation in Japan, there are a lot of friends right now that I&#8217;m worried about.
