SourceZorua, you are taking this too serious lolz. The nuclear plant is fine -.-'. Also I think this is tied with the moon according to the source abovez.

I'm merely trying to spread awareness and prevent casualties.

An Earthquake has hit Hawaii with a tsunami as well

I hope it doesn't hit Oregon or Washington, I have friends there.

Lets pray for Hawaiian tempers. I hope they're safe.

I hope Boxshot's safe. He said that he was from Hawaii.

this plant doesn't look so fine

it looks like the aftershocks are screwing things over

A dam broke near the plant and may sweep it away.

Who cares? People are dying, the japanese otaku culture could even disappear for all I care.

@mightymage
Akiba is probably alright. Tokyo wasn't hit so bad.
The tip of Tokyo Tower is currently bent and their Disneyland is full of mud I think

(but arcades are fragile so who knows)

Akiba is shaken, no damage, reports of children playing baseball like nothing happened but it's region by region, some places have minor damage.

How bad was the damage to Shibuya?

 

[Blebleman]

Tokyo is fine, guys... The only problems right now are public transport. Lots of people are stuck in Tokyo.

Now please stop worrying about the arcades. -_-;

 

[Wizerzak]

I imagine that Tokyo is alright, it's very well developed now and most of the building are very earthquake-proof, or so i hear.

Also, i know this sounds slightly selfish, but i hope this doesn't affect 3ds production....

Wasn't; I have a friend there...

I should go back and quote the post but, I am lazy.

Was there an earthquake in Cali today as stated on one of the earlier pages?

Yes, but it was caused little damage. 3.4 I believe. Only a bit before news of the Japan earthquake hit. http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/rec...ci10906781.html
This is scary because my town has had a severe earthquake about every hundred years... and it's overdue this time.

EDIT: Here's some info for anyone just catching up. http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eqi...001xgp/#details

@Alex_32571
maybe those tectonic plates found a comfy place to stay and won't bother your town anymore

Tsunami has already hit Oregon and California but it's only 1.1-1.3 ft, major ship damage, several ships swept out to sea, no injuries.
