Full floor map for TGS 2013 revealed

In our gallery you’ll see the three pages of maps for the floor of Tokyo Game Show 2013. Yes, it’s really that big. The walk from Hall 1 (where EA is located) down to Hall 9 (where there’s a cosplay dressing room) is so long that I’ve found myself taking a sitting break near Hall 4 before. I’m an out-of-shape blogger, you know.

Looking at the newly released floor map, you’ll see a few new areas for TGS 2013. First, an indie games area makes its TGS debut in Hall 9 — we’re very happy to see that. There are also new cyber games and cloud gaming areas scattered about the massive halls of Makuhari Messe. And both the business start-up and cosplay areas also make sense as additions.

But the one I like the most is called the Romance Simulation Dating Area. TGS’ map reads: “A dedicated area for woman users where you can find Romance Simulation games. Related goods would be available here tooA dedicated area for woman users where you can find Romance Simulation games. Related goods would be available here too.”

I’ll be all up in that area as well as all the others listed come next week, as Tokyo Game Show 2013 kicks off on September 19.
