This year’s Tokyo Game Show will see a record number of 342 companies exhibiting (153 of which are from overseas), the Computer Entertainment Supplier’s Association announced.
Nintendo's Switch Reveal trailer is almost shot for shot remake of the "A Day With PlayStation" ad from Sony's Pre-TGS Press Conference 2013.

Don't say that, Nintendo only does unique things, they are the really pioneers in the video-game industry, just look at all the new IPs they made in the last decade... or 2 decades... wait. not the best example. /s off. I think the NX will sell around the same amount as the WiiU sold, when it was announced it was the holy grail to, the rabid Nintendo Fanatics are great hyping stuff, but they just aren't enough to make a console successful, I was hoping to jump to Nintendo with the NX, I was really thinking they would learn and go back to a more traditional Nintendo console, powerful and with some great new games on top of some Good Mario games, but I get no SNES or Nintendo 64 vibes with this NX, I get vibes of a WiiU 2.0 or PS4+Vita remote play....
Of course if your way behind the competition follow what the market leaders doing and if possible do it better, that's clearly what Switch is attempting the same interconnectivity Sony promised with the PS4 and Vita but having it truly be one platform.
Edge:September’s Tokyo Game Show offered the first chance for Japanese players to get their hands on next-gen hardware as well as a larger selection of mobile and social games than has ever filled the Makuhari Messe before. It was a show packed with evidence of handheld gaming usurping home consoles in the region, and of new niches opening up.
japan wasn't ready for this gen either. The industry over there is falling apart. Even sony is launching in the US first.
In this episode of The Gaming Precision Podcast, we go on for a solid two hours about TGS, GTA V, our lord and savior Troy Baker and more!
"Expect to see a large number of titles for smartphones to be exhibited, as well."
*Blegh*
Sorry that was my dinner coming back up.
Can't wait for X from Monolith Soft for Wii U in this Tokyo game show.
