Tokyo Games Show (TGS), a game fair in... Chiba near Tokyo, was the sole reason for me to go around this date.
TGS started at 10:00. Few minutes after 10:00 I arrived at the station of Kaihin-Makuhari. And had to queeuee immediately after leaving the train. Yup, that was a queeue to the exit. :D
Even if I hadn't known the route, I'd find that place without any problems. One just needed to follow the masses. ;) If that wouldn't be enough, there were also signs and signs holders (yup, people!) saying where to go. ;)
I stood in line for the foreigners. I bought tickets, "registered" myself as a Polish and followed another guide. I stood in line with others, waiting for the possibility to enter. I think it lasted about an hour. The temperature was over 30 C, again. Some of the people were covering heads with terrycloth towels. Again. I know it's supposed to block the sweat, but still it looks strange to me.
There were really a lot of people inside. From all the games that I could have been playing, I was playing only smartphone/tablet games which didn't have a lot of people waiting. I didn't want to waste 1 hour to play TERA (tho it looked good). Some games caught my attention, just to mention Phantasy Star Online 2.
I haven't bought there anything except food. ;) Food stands got their own hall.
Before the food hall there was a place for cosplayers. You could take a photo of cosplayers. Through megaphones they were announcing the rules for taking photos.
One of the pavillions was only (!) for families with children (family corner). There were also 7 other games pavilions.
Below are some of the photos taken at TGS. I'll to go there again, when I have a chance.
A line for icecream called shaved ice (かき氷). Free, as it was a promotion of one of the companies that attended TGS. I was one of its last clients. :P I tried ice with melon syrup. And I became a melon fan since then. ;)
And lastly, few photos of Shinjuku station neighborhood (in Tokio). In big department stores with electronic appliances, there are brand-sellers (ie. Canon, Nikon sellers). But... when they see a foreigner, they still send whoever speaks English. :P
