For those who don't speak Japanese, Video Fenky has a partial translation of the Kakaku article, as well as some history on what the store was, where it was, etc. Coincidentally, it comes right after a much longer story about the declining state of Akihabara, which is right below the story about the fire.

I hope no one was hurt and that the building didn't collapse. That looks to be one doozy of a blaze.

From the Video Fenky article: Since nobody is injured, I'm free to make comments like "They must've gotten in some copies of Roscoe McQueen Firefighter Extreme" and "Wow, I didn't know PS2s got that hot" and "I guess the price wars in Akihabara really are heating up" and be reasonably sure I will not be smited by the God of Nerds. Reasonably sure, that is.

Fortunately, the 燃え萌え will blossom soon again! It looks like it will be the first cosplay bar of Akiba... How can this be possible?
