Long train ride to the convention center, full of Nintendo fans from all walks of life!

 Could this be any cuter - without being deadly?

Lots of couples and small children.

 Area for smaller kids was a really cute idea. Tiny size!

 Pokemon... gigantic crowd.

Kids and parents watched the battle in awe.

 Need for Speed - much anticipation in this line.

 Shinkansen! Fancy controller was not being demoed... but it was there on display!

 Sugoi!!

 Harvest Moon... lots to do! Hardcore feel!

Dog Island - super cute. Dogs talk and ask for things.

 My favorite photo from the show... you go, mom!

 Tamagotchi very popular.

Fun to watch the kids shake and wiggle as they played.
