"Of course, my passion is about tech and gaming. I have always been fascinated with that. A lot of new changes. I'm pretty particular with new games like Ananta, also new games by Hideo Kojima hopefully I'd be able to take a pick of those things and also games from Level Infinite and Sega."

6. SOUNDBITE (Japanese) Tsutomu Masuda, managing director of Computer Entertainment Supplier's Association:
"There is a trend in mobile games. Apart from what is called 'casual games', games are becoming multi-platform. For instance, what used to be for iPhones now can be played on game consoles at home. That adaptability has increased. I think one of the biggest factors (when it comes to the gaming industry's growth) is that - those who casually want to play and those who want to dive into it - mobile games can serve both."

"First of all, I am a gamer. I enjoy gaming a lot so being here, seeing all of the big gaming dev's (developers), publishers showcasing their new titles and seeing how they set up their really extravagant booths. That's what keeps me coming back every year."
