I&#8217;d head out after lunch. So that&#8217;s what I did. It&#8217;s about an hour from my place to Makuhari Messe. At the conbini I bought some bread and onigiri in case I got hungry in some line &#8211; and I knew that there would be a line somewhere &#8211; and headed out. I had a full day ticket which meant I could enter at 10am, but I didn&#8217;t make it there until 13:30. The afternoon tickets let people in at 14:00, and you can see in one picture there is a big line of people waiting for their turn to enter. I&#8217;m glad I had the full day ticket. I basically entered, and then searched for the Capcom booth. I took a few pictures on the way, but honestly this year there just wasn&#8217;t much that I was excited to see. If I had more time I would have checked out a lot more stuff, but I didn&#8217;t want to get caught in the crush of people trying to leave at 6pm, so I wanted to leave a bit sooner.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nOne thing that caught my attention as soon as I walked in was a booth saying something like &#8220;NFTs here&#8221;, which is crazy. No gamers are asking for NFTs. It isn&#8217;t solving a problem. It&#8217;s making problems. And there is no reason to try to shoe-forn NFTs into games.\n<\/p>\n<p><br clear=\"all\"\/><\/p>\n<div class=\"floatright\">\n<a data-flickr-embed=\"true\" data-footer=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/fugutabetai\/52367931313\/in\/datetaken-public\/\" title=\"EM102030 2022-09-17 Tokyo Game Show\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/52367931313_042af4ec4b_n.jpg\" width=\"240\" height=\"320\" alt=\"EM102030 2022-09-17 Tokyo Game Show\"><\/a><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\" data-footer=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/fugutabetai\/52366757272\/in\/datetaken-public\/\" title=\"EM102032 2022-09-17 Tokyo Game Show\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/52366757272_0ed8ba1b21_n.jpg\" width=\"320\" height=\"240\" alt=\"EM102032 2022-09-17 Tokyo Game Show\"><\/a><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\" data-footer=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/fugutabetai\/52367931008\/in\/datetaken-public\/\" title=\"EM102036 2022-09-17 Tokyo Game Show\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/52367931008_b91cdf9c7e_n.jpg\" width=\"320\" height=\"240\" alt=\"EM102036 2022-09-17 Tokyo Game Show\"><\/a><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\" data-footer=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/fugutabetai\/52368009769\/in\/datetaken-public\/\" title=\"EM102037 2022-09-17 Tokyo Game Show\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/52368009769_a8348cbd2f_n.jpg\" width=\"320\" height=\"240\" alt=\"EM102037 2022-09-17 Tokyo Game Show\"><\/a><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\" data-footer=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/fugutabetai\/52367930913\/in\/datetaken-public\/\" title=\"EM102038 2022-09-17 Tokyo Game Show\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/52367930913_1fb0df63b8_n.jpg\" width=\"320\" height=\"240\" alt=\"EM102038 2022-09-17 Tokyo Game Show\"><\/a><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\nI walked around, basically just looking for the Capcom booth. I eventually found it, and they had big displays for SF6 (of course), Exoprimal with a really nice animatronic dinosaur, and a large Resident Evil section too. I didn&#8217;t check any of those out though. SF6 was by far the most crowded section. I was very disappointed when I got there because the staff told me that they were restricting access to the demo, and you needed a ticket for a certain time to get in. I couldn&#8217;t believe it, and I asked about how to get a ticket, what to do, but they just didn&#8217;t have any answers for me. Turns out though that every once in a while they would open up the line so I waited around for a while (not a short while) and eventually got into the demo line.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThe demo line took a long time, but when I neared the front they asked if I was with anyone (I was not) and so they found another person that was single and paired us up. We had a nice chat, and eventually got our turn. The staff asked us what we wanted to play on, I assume to match us up to a console, I said stick or pad is ok, my opponent wanted pad. Turns out they set up a station for us with the control that we wanted. We were able to pick simple or traditional controls and I used traditional. I wasn&#8217;t in control of player 1 or I would have tried to check out settings to see what I could do with commentary (I wanted to see if there was a &#8220;have the commentary cheer for you&#8221; option like was recently talked about) but we just jumped into gameplay.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nI played Kimberly (cool!), Jamie (hard to understand!), Ryu (he&#8217;s Ryu!), and Ken (has some crazy kicks). The time went very quickly &#8211; 15 minutes on a timer, then we were asked to leave. I thought the game play was good, though I thought time from pressing the button to action on screen was a bit slow (maybe latency, maybe I&#8217;m just not used to it) but it was fun. I&#8217;m definitely going to enjoy the game when it comes out.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nAfter playing, you were able to walk out to see a full-life Chun-Li figure, and take a picture with her. I tweeted it out, and got some stickers, which is nice. While waiting in line I saw a few friends I know, and we met up afterwards to chat for a bit which was great. These are people I haven&#8217;t seen in over three years in some cases, so even if we just had a brief chat it was great seeing them. I would have loved to hang out and get dinner, but with the crazy week at work I had, which made my wife take care of the kids for three of those nights, I really wanted to get back home and help out there. So I left at about 4:30pm, and the trains weren&#8217;t too bad yet. I&#8217;m really glad that I went to TGS, and player SF6 was great. I&#8217;m looking forward to the closed beta test &#8211; hope I get a ticket &#8211; and eventual release.\n<\/p>\n<p><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\" data-footer=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/fugutabetai\/52367930673\/in\/datetaken-public\/\" title=\"EM102041 2022-09-17 Tokyo Game Show\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/52367930673_09cc1fff67_n.jpg\" width=\"320\" height=\"240\" alt=\"EM102041 2022-09-17 Tokyo Game Show\"><\/a><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\" data-footer=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/fugutabetai\/52368121390\/in\/datetaken-public\/\" title=\"EM102042 2022-09-17 Tokyo Game Show\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/52368121390_e8d19975c9_n.jpg\" width=\"320\" height=\"240\" alt=\"EM102042 2022-09-17 Tokyo Game Show\"><\/a><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\" data-footer=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/fugutabetai\/52368121295\/in\/datetaken-public\/\" title=\"EM102043 2022-09-17 Tokyo Game Show\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/52368121295_babb9bea20_n.jpg\" width=\"320\" height=\"240\" alt=\"EM102043 2022-09-17 Tokyo Game Show\"><\/a><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"ja\" dir=\"ltr\">I ended up not going to TGS Day 4 due to horrible weather but <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/TGS2022?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#TGS2022<\/a> was a BLAST\u2764\ufe0f\u200d\ud83d\udd25 Got to meet so many cool ppl and had a lot of fun playing upcoming games\ud83c\udfae<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/%E6%9D%B1%E4%BA%AC%E3%82%B2%E3%83%BC%E3%83%A0%E3%82%B7%E3%83%A7%E3%82%A62022?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#\u6771\u4eac\u30b2\u30fc\u30e0\u30b7\u30e7\u30a62022<\/a> \u4e45\u3057\u3076\u308a\u306e\u30aa\u30d5\u30e9\u30a4\u30f3\u306f\u3084\u3063\u3071\u308a\u697d\u3057\u304b\u3063\u305f\uff01\u30b2\u30fc\u30e0\u3063\u3066\u6700\u9ad8\uff01\uff01 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/SXqOjjBRso\">pic.twitter.com\/SXqOjjBRso<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Celina\ud83c\udf19\u30bb\u30ea\u30fc\u30ca (@tkn0801) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/tkn0801\/status\/1571397154928984066?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 18, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A month or so ago, I bought tickets for the Tokyo Game Show.
