Xcloud. Mobile is huge in Japan.

Gatcha mobage are huge. The audience is fine with rpg lite experiences. Cloud gaming won't take off there. They just don't care as much about traditional gaming anymore and streaming it to a mobile device won't change a thing

I forsee a lot of japanese people skipping the first hour, then.

Aren't slow internet speeds in certain areas of Japan also a problem? At least, I remember hearing about that a few years ago.

Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis is 100% confirmed btw:

"Additionally, Sega has announced a new, open-world PSO 2 update called New Genesis, due out in 2021. This update is being released in lieu of a new episode to bring the 8-year-old graphics engine up to date, worldwide. Details on New Genesis are light at the moment, but Sega says it will reveal more in the Tokyo Game Show timeframe later this year"

I'm assuming it will be at the Xbox opening, can't wait 👀

What if its just more persona spin offs followed by a cryptic persona 6 teaser?
I honestly don't think that will happen, as much as Atlus loves to do that. Their big promotion right now is for Nocturne HD, so I fully expect a bunch of footage of that, but I think SMTV is their next big project to promote. Ever since Scramble they haven't focused too much on Persona spinoffs.

thats funny. Why is everyone making a big deal out of this year's TGS? Is something going to be announced?

People are just more thirsty for more gaming news with the new consoles around the corner, e3 cancelled, underwhelming events, some folks are stuck at home, worldwide pandemic, etc.

People are kidding themselves if they think SE will reveal FFXVI there.

Time for some more CG trailers from Microsoft... But seriously though, that's good on them to actually put an effort this time around. I doubt it'll make much of a difference unless there's some megaton announcement like Sega being bought or that they actually have the Final Fantasy or FromSoftware exclusives (don't bet on it). Something that I would love to see is if MS announces backward compatibility with... Dreamcast.

It was at the last Xbox show. Could turn up again from the sounds of things.

Two new DW games getting announced? Musuo season is finally upon us. Hopefully it's better than DW9 and WO4U

20:00 ~ 20:50 - Konami information program

"Contra, Gradius, Twinbee, Castlevania...[45 mins later] ... Metal Gear, Parodius, Silent Hill, Xexex... these are but a handful of the IPs we're going to do nothing with ! enjoy the rest of TGS!"

Don't forget Bloody Roar and Frogger.

I think they will be revealing something. It probably won't be a new Silent Hill but it might be remasters/rereleases of the MGS collection or Silent Hill collection.

What I want: FF7R info, Elden Ring reveal, new big JRPG or Japanese action RPG from Xbox Global Publishing, Series S specially designed to be sleek and fit in your tiny Tokyo apartment, announcement of a new Xbox Japan Studio.

What we'll get: sizzle reel of games coming to Japanese Game Pass

Did they talk about the TGS event on Xbox Wire?

If they didn't I'm guessing the event really isn't relevant.

The only chance for SNK to announce something will be on the XBOX showcase stuff, but last time when MS revealed all the companies that were working on the Series X they weren't included

Huh. Very surprised Xbox is kicking things off, hopefully it'll be interesting. I suppose it'd be fair to assume we'll see more of Scarlet Nexus which would be pretty nice as it's looking pretty good so far.

No doubt that it will be all about Game Pass and japanese titles coming to it. Maybe a day one surprises like...maybe, Yakuza 7!?
