The organisers of Tokyo Game Show have announced that this year's show held in Makuhari Messe outside of Tokyo attracted record numbers of visitors with a total of 270,197 visitors (46,444 more visitors that last year) in four days (two of which were open to the public).

Reports from Western media outlets have largely been negative as TGS seems to lose its relevance (in terms of news value) with each year. But obviously it still attracts the Japanese gamers.
