    Tokyo Game Show Exhibitor List

    With the E3 dust just starting to settle, time to focus on Leipzig Tokyo Game Show. This year will host 168 exhibitors occupying 1,708 booth units, making this year's TGS the largest ever. By comparison, the previous largest show (last year!) had 148 exhibitors in 1,701 booth units.

    In contrary to our insider info and Miyamoto pressuring, Nintendo looks like it WON'T be in attendance. Not counting on last minute announcements! Guess they figured they don't need TGS. Still, do look for Square Enix to push the crap out of Dragon Quest IX and the DS.

    Hit the jump for highlights of exhibitors — minus the likes of the Australian Embassy and the Japan E-Sports Association Preparatory Committee.
