Tokyo Game Show!
Written by Jeshii on 2008.10.08 – 23:47 -
Tokyo Game Show begins today (10/9 JST) for businesses in Japan, and opens to the public on Saturday!
I was just thinking, “Wow I can’t believe one year has gone by already.” And then I was thinking, “You know you are pretty far gone when you measure years by TGS.”
It’s actually very affordable at 1,200円 (yen) per day, assuming you don’t have to tack $1000 for air fare. ><;
For the rumors, go check out Kotaku’s round-up. What I really want to go see is the GMT music show going on Saturday night. With しょこたん (Shokotan) and YMCK… It’s going to be ヲタク (otaku) paradise.
Watch the videos after the jump for a taste of the artists.
しょこたん singing 「ハレ晴レユカイ」 (hare hare yukai):
YMCK’s “Magical 8bit Tour”

That’s going to be an AMAZING show.

Hey Jeshii – You didn’t happen to go to UCSB, did you? Friends with Raoul?
If you’re a different Jeshii, my apologies for coming off as a loon.

Nope, that’s me! If you are the Alex I think you are, yo!!! Long time, no see!

Definitely long time, no see. Funny how small the foreign-community-involved-in-Japanese is. You posted a comment below mine over at JapanProbe.com. Are you still in Japan or back in the States? I’ve been in Japan with a 2-year-break in Korea since graduation. I haven’t been back to California for over three and a half years now!

lol, it is a small world indeed.
I’m back in the states, much to my chagrin. I’m taking Cisco classes and planning my escape.
Your Japanese (and Korean!) must be awesome by now. My accent gets worse everyday I’m here in LA. It’s really sad ’cause I can hear it, but I can’t seem to do anything about it!
BTW, did you ever see my silly videos? XD
