Tokyo Game Show Special- Details, Downloads, and views from a Madman      - 3.30.01

		TECMO at the TGS While Tecmo's booth at the TGS basically had nothing outstanding other than Moster Farm, they dropped a bomb at the X-Box booth; Dead Or Alive 3. Movie clip is available, and in a considerate size too. [ More details ... ]
		SQUARE at the TGS Square's booth had a number of games on Demo, but Final Fantasy X was definitely the center of Attention. Tidus and Yuna's voices seem to match the characters well. Movie clip of the promo movie is available. [ More details ... ]
		Capcom at the TGS Capcom's booth offered a variety of games, and Capcom vs SNK Pro was present. A tournament was held with the game, and some Capcom vs SNK 2 info was available as well. Note: SNK showed their games under Aruze, but nothing of a big news was available at all, other than a short message that "SNK vs Capcom Card Fighters 2" is scheduled for release in Summer (no photos available). What was interesting though, was that, in Capcom's booth... [ More details ... ]
		Et Cetra at the TGS Other misc' things at the Tokyo Game Show... [ More details ... ]

The Girls "Want" Him.

The definite highlight of the TGS: I saw Bill Gates, *real* close up. I never knew that Bill Gates was as tall as a basketball player, Scary. I saw him by pure coincidence, and the impossible event which happend next is one thing that I'll never forget for as long as about.. say, a warranty on a Microsoft product.

As Bill Gates walked through the enterance of the Tokyo Game Show after the conclusion of the opening ceremonies, a group of Japanese girls started screaming from his back simultaneously in Japanglish; "BILL, I WANTCHU!!!"

"BILL, I WANTCHU!!!"     "BILL, I WANTCHU!!!"     "BILL, I WANTCHU!!!"     (Serious.)

Here, I took a shot of Mr.Gates from the side, right when the girls were screaming. Yes. Nice, Wide, BUSINESS GRIN. A true professional, even with his back faced toward insane fans without a single bodyguard. But I'm sure that with his stamina, he can take on all of the girls at the same time.. if only he wasn't a married man.
