Game arcades were once immensely popular, especially among young people. It was a dream place where you could play games of various genres such as Space Invaders, Final Fight, Street Fighter, Beatmania, and so on. However, nowadays, everyone can easily play games on high-performance home video game consoles and smartphones. Even today, crane games and sound games are still played, but they have not reached the level of excitement they once had. In order to restore the popularity of game arcades, the Japan Amusement Industry Association will hold " Amusement Expo in Tokyo Big Sight " on Saturday, November 25, 2023! A huge game center will appear at Tokyo Big Sight for one day only.
Amusement Expo will be held for the first time!
The Japan Amusement Industry Association has been holding "Japan Amusement Expo (JAEPO)" since 2013, but it has been positioned as a place to announce new products and conduct business meetings for business. However, the JAEPO is now a more comprehensive event! In order to develop the amusement and entertainment industry, we need to expand our fan base by involving people who are not familiar with game arcades! This is why "Amusement Expo in Tokyo Big Sight" will be held for the first time.
