Chapter 2 Points that have been Revised
1. Request for Cooperation (IMPORTANT)
REVISED
To carry out the operations at TGS safely and comfortably, we would like to have the cooperation
from the exhibitors on the following points. Please read the following text carefully.
(1) Management of Exhibitor’s Badge (Important)
On the Business Days, there have been cases where exhibitors had given their exhibitors’
badges to visitors. There have also been cases where exhibitors’ badges were misused because
exhibitors had lost them. Also, exhibitors’ badges may be sold by a broker or in an auction.
In order to prevent these events, the Management Office has decided to print in the exhibitor’s
name and a serial number on the badge before delivering it to the exhibitor. With this number,
the exhibitor can also specify to whom the badge was distributed. In case a badge was lost or
stolen, or in case it was found that someone has given the badge to someone else, please notify
the TGS OMO as soon as possible.
We would like to ask for your cooperation in preventing any inappropriate actions.
(2) Taking Photos on Move-in / Set-up Days (Important)
During move-in and set-up days (September 15 (Mon.) – 17 (Wed.), try to avoid taking pictures
or record videos of the site and other exhibitors’ booth, other than your own booth. In the past,
some people that have obtained the exhibitor’s badge in an improper way were walking around,
taking photos of the set-up. If any suspicious persons are found, please report to the TGS OMO
or the security guard.
(3) Distribution of Numbered Tickets (Important)
Ensuring Safety
during Busy Hours
P. 79
If it is anticipated that the number of visitors flooding into the aisles nearby will exceed a certain
number (*1), please request and reserve a place, which will be arranged by the Management
Office beforehand, for distributing the numbered tickets. On that day, if the number of visitors
exceeds a certain number, or if the Management Office judges that it is dangerous, please guide
the visitors to the numbered ticket distribution place, to ensure safety of the visitors. The
location of the numbered ticket distribution place will be decided, after the locations of the
booths are finalized.
Numbered ticket distribution place can be used for free, but the exhibitor is requested to
arrange staffs for distributing the tickets (*2).
The Management Office will adjust the requests of the exhibitors and will determine the time
and location of the numbered ticket distribution place. For details, please refer to P. 79
“Ensuring Safety during Busy Hours”
*1 A certain number is when the visitors and/or the waiting line exceeds the visitors’
waiting area, or when the waiting time exceeds 2 hours. Or if CESA or the Management
Office judges that it is dangerous or that it obstructs smooth operation.
*2 If you need an extra staff for distributing the tickets, we can make that arrangement
for 20,000 JPY (excluding tax, per person, 1 time)

All exhibitors carrying out talk show or live performance in their booth and establishing larger
than 100 inches large video display need planning the front of such structures to reduce
congestion. Please arrange staffs or ropes for ensuring flow line, and execute the operation
that the audience does not stay in the passage. If the number of audience exceeds the
regulation, please note the stage program might be instructed to be discontinued.

Wireless LAN (Important)
Recently, the use of wireless communication system for game devices is increasing, which
causes severe crossed-wire problems with other nearby booths. To prevent and reduce these
problems, the Management Office has decided to limit the usage amount of wireless LAN access
(2.4GHzbands) since 2012.
To use wireless LAN access point or mobile router such as pocket Wi-Fi without approval from
the Management Office would be prohibited in the Exhibition halls (Hall 1-6).
In case the exhibitor needs wireless LAN access for its demonstration or exhibition, please use
TGS-net Wi-Fi Connection service (→P.54) provided by the Management Office, or contact TGS
OMO in advance.

Wireless LAN Connection Service
(1) TGS-net Wi-Fi Connection Service
Recently, the use of wireless communication system for game devices is increasing, which causes
severe crossed-wire problems with other nearby booths.
To prevent and reduce these problems, the Management Office has decided to prohibit exhibitors
and visitors to carry wireless LAN access point/mobile router in the halls. Instead, the Management
Office will provide Wi-Fi connection service in the exhibition halls (Hall 1-6).
This Wi-Fi connection service is limited to devices which do not work with wired internet connection,
such as Smartphone, tablet devices and other game devices.
Please prepare wired connection for devices which work with wired communication, such as PC.

(3)Service information
・This service provides Wi-Fi connection within exhibitors booths.
・Provided Wireless LAN will be 802.11a/g..
* Communication speed may get slower if there are too many 802.11g, users. Therefore we recommend
that you use 802.11a. Please inform us at the time of application if you will use devices that can connect
to W56 belt, 802.11a, which has less users.
・We would not guarantee communication speed since the service is the Best Effort type.
・Please submit your booth plan at the time of application since in some cases booth shape may
affect wireless LAN radio wave.
・Installation of wireless access point in booth may become necessary depending on the location of

Chapter 5
(4) Wireless LAN Access point for exhibitors /Prohibition of bringing in Mobile router
Wi-Fi Connection service will be provided in the exhibition halls (Hall 1-6) exclusively for internet
connection of Smartphone, tablet devices and game devices.
Therefore carrying wireless LAN Access point or Mobile router in the halls will be prohibited.
•
Management staff who uses mobile router and tethering function for Smartphone needs to turn off these
functions in the venue.
If exhibitors bring in and use their own wireless LAN Access point or Mobile router, there is a
possibility of communication failure and interference with the TGS-net Wi-Fi Connection service.
We appreciate everyone’s cooperation to this matter because the event site is in an enclosed
space and the resource for radio wave is limited.
Bringing wireless LAN Access point of Mobile router by exhibitors will be strictly prohibited.
Exhibitor who is found bringing such Mobile router in will be asked to refrain from using it.
<Notice about Internet Connection>
1. Requesting to take antivirus measures
In recent years, a number of computer viruses, such as MSBLAST, have infected
computers just because they are connected to networks. We will perform virus
checking on TGS-net, but that does not totally block out unauthorized access or
computer viruses. We urge all exhibitors to take appropriate countermeasures against
unauthorized access, computer virus infection and other possible problems.
Examples are given below.
● Use antivirus software.
● Apply OS security patches and service packs.
● Change passwords to more complicated ones
(combination of alphabetic letters, numerals and symbols is desirable.)

necessary measures, including removing the relevant booth from the network.
● In case network failure or any other trouble is caused by the virus infection of a
computer for which no antivirus measure has been taken, the organizer may claim
expenses incurred for restoration from the relevant exhibitor.
* When the exhibitor uses a freeware program for antivirus purposes, the exhibitor is
considered to have taken no antivirus measures. So, please be forewarned.
3. Communications between exhibitors
Exhibitors will not be able to communicate with other exhibitors using TGS-net.
* However, exhibitors will be able to communicate with each other by using their global
IP addresses.

1-1. Appointment System
“Asia Business Gateway”
REVISED
Asia Business Gateway is the system that allows exhibitors to make a meeting appointment with
other exhibitors or business day visitors in advance. (Exhibitor registration required)
Any exhibitor can make use of this system for free.
By making use of this System, the exhibitors will be able to approach, or be approached by
companies with various products/ services and techniques before the Show. This will expand the
possibilities of having business meetings with companies that were hard to approach. Also, because
the exhibitor will know who to have the meeting with, thorough preparations of the meeting can be
made beforehand.
In order to promote game business internationally, CESA and the Management Office are trying to
facilitate communication and exchange among Japanese and overseas exhibitors and visitors. In this
relation, exhibitors are requested to register the person in charge of overseas affairs as well as the
person in charge of domestic business.
Name, Email address and other personal information provided for the registration of the
Appointment System will not be made public. Exhibitors can send and receive messages on this
system only.
To make use of this System, the exhibitors are requested to register to Asia Business Gateway and to
provide the profile of your own company. Please register from the following website.

(Available from beginning of August)
■ To Achieve Good Results in Meetings at TGS
(1)
What is the advantage of using Appointment System “Asia Business Gateway”?
At any trade shows, it is very important to exchange business cards and exchange information
at the site. It is equally important to follow-up on these people after the show with direct mails
or emails. Sometimes, it may even become necessary to meet with some of the people again
after the show. Also, you can save time and money if it is possible to hold as many business
meetings as possible during the show. By doing so, you will be able to carry out business
efficiently and get good results.
TGS 2013 attracted 52,354 people in the game business field from Japan and abroad on the
Business Days. Please make the best use of this System to expand your business opportunities.
(2)
How to utilize Asia Business Gateway
To make use of Asia Business Gateway, please follow the procedure on the next page.
This system will open approximately 1.5 months before the show (around beginning of August).
It is possible to make appointments for a business meeting with companies that are registered
to this system.
Although, the approach may not always be successful, but the important thing is to approach as
many companies as possible. Please make use of this system to expand your business
opportunities.
