What do you want from Japanator at Tokyo Game Show photo

Japanator coverage at Tokyo Game Show? We're trying to make it happen. But before we sell our bodies for a plane ticket, tell us what you want as far as coverage goes.

Is it cosplay coverage? We're more than happy to do that for you. Obvs. Would you like videos on the experience of the show? Booth tours? Are there specific games you want to see? 

And while we are there, do you want us to break off and give you virtual tours of fun places like Akihabara? Do you want to see Tim's first time in a hostess bar?

Tell us what you want. Your input will really help us.

Bring me back a Japanese booth boy!
Versus XIII! And booth babes! And definitley the hostess bar thing! Thanks, Japanator!
I love games, but I love Japan's weird stuff even more, so I'm all for the hostess bar! And while you are at it, why not try some weird otaku places, like maid cafes and those strange idol shows! And please, try to interview them!

Oh, and games... I'd love more details about The Last Story, but since Nintendo doesn't participate on TGS... don't forget the hostesses! (wait, is that a word?)
Normally I’d say focus on the games but Destructoid will have more than enough of that, so yeah, show us the weird stuff that we wouldn’t normally get to see but are oh so fascinated by.

And the hostess bar obviously, that is if they let you in...
Anything hilariously weird and/or uncomfortable. So yes, hostess bars.

Here's a kinda offbeat idea, how 'bout you guys have a convenience store banquet for those of us who might not be too keen on the wonders and horrors of every day Japanese junk food staples?
Well, Destructoid will likely cover the games and the booth babes.

So, for you guys, cover the cosplay and, depending on Destructoid, the arcade games. And maybe anime-related games, probably. I wanna know if they suck as much as they do in the U.S.

However, you MUST cover The Last Guardian. At least ask its director/creator Ueda-san a few questions about what he does outside of making games. And about the possible upcoming Shadow of the Colossus film. I wanna see if he gets angry.
What Rank57 said...give us videos, lots of videos! (hostess bars, Akihabara) But I also would love to see your hotel, the food you eat, and convenience stores! You can also try going out at 4am and see if you find anything interesting on the streets.

Oh yeah and toilets :P
For the big games such as anything from Square-Enix and Capcom booth we've got the Games Press to take care of that. Please take a look at niche titles that might not get a release in the West. This is the ONLY time we will ever get to see them. Also there are a lot of visual novels that are spin-offs from Anime series. If we could get some of that, it would be nice.

Even if you can't read any of it, seriously - just bring back some pretty pictures and I will be happy.
I overall agree with what everyone else is saying. Cover the stuff that isn't going to be covered in Destructoid. Games that are not going to make it over here.

Oh, and no booth boys. Only Booth babes.
stop stepping on my game, nortonantivirus =P
Your missions, should you choose to accept them:

1. Extract any info possible from Konami about a future Suikoden game
2. Find out what Vanillaware is up to next; steal artwork from any game if possible
3. Give Level 5 manly bro hugs for Ni no Kuni and the Professor Layton series (among others)
4. Videotape Josh Tolentino chugging one of those weird Japan-only Pepsi flavors. Then get him on a podcast here; he seems like a cool guy.
5. Dale North posting in front of an Idolm@ster display with his moe-moe-kyun
6. Xenoblade and The Last Story: localization plans for NA release?

I think that's about it for my wish-list.
I agree with the no-mainstream games idea since Destructoid'll have that handled. I say check to see if there'll be a playable demo for Hyper Dimension Game Neptune.

Also, it'd be hilarious if some of you did the round-eye japanese around actual japanese people to see how they react.
I heard rumours about a Super Robot Taisen game for the PS3 being presented to the public this TGS, would be nice to see some info on it. Thanks.
Give me The Last Guardian or give me death...
I co-sign with Cosign! Coverage of lesser known games would be great. Maybe look out for this generation's Katamari, or something.

Are you guys going to be just in the Tokyo area? Hey, it would be just be cool looking around the area, maybe even mingle and tingle with the locales. Maybe see if they're really prepared for the zombie apocalypse.
I hear people say they can spend days in Akiba going through all the shops.
Just go apeshit!

And maybe pay a visit to the Lucky Star shrine...? :3
Everyone wants to see me go broke at a hostess bar. sweet. :D
