I'm not sure but maybe it has to deal with release dates in Japan because it's a worldwide release. Maybe Konami just wanted to release it on an odd day by itself for the simultaneous release.

Because the latest Indiana Jones released on a Thursday and the two have nothing to do with eachother but it's a cute coincidence isn't it?

RUN-on's are fun try it.
