EU News Wrap, September 12 - What happened today

Today was literally as quiet as quiet can be. Unless you include the wind outside my window, in which case, no it wasn't. Here's some Daft Punk.

Have we mentioned it's Tokyo Game Show week? We have? Okay, good, just checking. By the time this goes live, you should also have a Hard Reset piece from Stace going up just afterwards, so give that a look.

In the meantime, what happened in the EU news shift? Not a great deal. It's all quiet before the big storm out of Tokyo. So here is the news:

  All you can say to this is about friggin' time.
