Tokyo Game Show 2007 thread!
« on: September 08, 2007, 06:22:34 PM »
Well, it's that time of the year.  Tokyo Game Show is coming up in just about two weeks.  I was wondering if anybody is going to go or be in the area.  I'd love to meet up with other PCE fans like myself and I know some of you live in Japan. :)  (Tatsujin, I'm looking at you! hehe)

Anyway, I'll be wondering around Tokyo about a week prior to the show.  So, PM me or post if you'll be in the area!

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

I should be at the show on 22nd and 23rd (Sat & Sun).

Tatsujin, how are you getting in earlier?  Hook me up man! :D

Chris & Tatsujin, it'd be cool to meet up with you guys.  I'll send a PM after I get there.  Maybe we can go out for a beer or something after the show.

Well, I do live in Japan, after all.  No need for the envy.  Tokyo's a 3-hour train ride away for me.

Uh-oh, I know what this's going to provoke:

I voted "screw you" because I f*cking hate trade shows, press hype, etc.

Although, realistically, I do plan on a visit to Japan sometime in the next year or two, and I might very well time it around something like TGS.

Word.. I've been to a couple and both times I came away with the feeling of
 "well.. whoop-dee-f*cking-doo!".  Luckily I live here and didn't lay down the
coin and time to fly out here.

Yeah, TGS last year (my first one) was pretty blah.  But that's par for the course for anyone who's really only into 8/16-bit games, and pretty much has nothing new except for a DS.

The dinner with my friends at TGI Friday's after the show was worth the trip, though.  :-D

yeah..the TGSs went really boring over the last years. my first one was in '98 and at that time i still had the chance to play fabulous 2D software for our 32-bitter back then. and even i had the chance to play spriggan and spriggan mark II on the PCE at the compile both, when they showed up with their zanacXzanac^^


so this time, nobody will join at friday? maybe will be there also on saturday, just for meet up some of you guys. don't know yet :)

You think for a game show of this caliber they would at least have a classic gaming room or booth.   :-k Though maybe with the Wii out they will have something for the old 16 Bit Consoles. I'm sure there will be news regarding upcoming VC releases as well. Should be a good time.  8) I, however, will not be going. Halifax, Nova Scotia to Tokyo is a long and expensive flight. lol  :-({|=
