AKIBA48 presents new Mobile Phones / handphones at a NTT DoCoMo event, Some of them look cool being able to rotate horizontally for more screen space.

image soure: famitsu.com

According to Japanese entertainment site ZAKZAK, Tomonobu Itagaki, famed creator of the Dead or Alive series, has been accused of sexually harassing a former Tecmo employee. The woman in question has sued him for 10 million yen.

source: 1up, Games are fun, Gamespot

Well I guess thats what happens when you are the ceator of DOA games… not the best gaming news but its something I am not surprised, on a side note he is married with 2 kids…

I still am looking forward to DOA Xtreme 2, hope this does not slow down Ninja Gaiden Sigma and Ninja Gaiden 2.

A Tokyo Game Show 2006 Experience Report Coming…

Posted by Akiraman on September 28, 2006

TGS 2006

Hi all I have returned back from Tokyo Game Show 06 (TGS 06) held this year at the Makuhari Messe Convention Hall in Chiba, Tokyo and have finally returned to my blog, as I had internet troubles in Japan with no internet connection at the hotel (=_=) I will not do the normal report on the games as there are many uninformed Gaming media sites to do that. Also it will be impossible to cover everything and I hope to show other interesting stuff that can only be found in Japan besides the usual SONY, Microsoft, SEGA etc. games.

What I intend to do is upload video and photos taken of the Event of not only TGS but of my trip to Japan (which is my 3rd or 4th time going). It will be more of a story experience I have at the TGS Conference through the eyes of the camera lens.

so the story will go something like this (working it out Still):

  • Tokyo Pre TGS (photos)
  • TGS Day 01 (Photos)
  • TGS Day 02 (Photos)
  • TGS Day 03 (Photos)
  • Post TGS / Tokyo (Photos)
  • Unedited Video of TGS (video)
