Many companies stop business even on the day which is not holiday, so the period is quite long. Of course there are companies won't rest. |

Longest case this year is 10 days. |

During this period, Japanese game makers won't have any news. Well, we may catch some from their overseas section. |

No news in Japan huh. |
![]() |
Well, except 1 company. |

Sony Computer Entertainment's PlayStation Network leakage of personal information huh. The announcement made on Sunday May 1 is noticeable. |
![]() |
In Japan, we could wait after the holiday for this kind of announcement, but this case is serious enough for them to do it earlier. Actually people complained the announcement is too late. |

Let's pay attention to PS Network's news of resuming service and leakage problem. |

![]() | Here is Japan, we celebrate April Fool and no one would blame any lie. |
![]() | Other countries celebrate April Fool too. |
![]() | But this year you need to be careful. |
![]() | Why? |
