Waiting for BTS goods in a crowded stairwell in Harajuku, Heathrow madness and eventually games. The legendary launch-day lines for Dragon Quest III, the monumental first three days of Splatoon 3, lining up for Final Fantasy XIII in Akihabara, fighting for a Nintendo DS, and then lots of Tokyo Game Show talk. Memories of previous shows, past embarrassments, cancelled games, and a mini-preview for TGS 2022.
