World Hobby Fair - Makuhari Messe Report and Pictures
The 2004 World Hobby Fair was Sega’s quietest with only four titles on show, three of which are from Sonic Team. Still, that didn’t prevent Sega Japan from producing this picture packed reporton the fair that was held in Makuhari Messe.
^The Sonic Balloon returned
^With no exciting games to draw the crowds to its booth, Sega had to rely on other methods. A special tournament was held where lucky visitors, picked at random, could compete to win a special goody
^ Visitors sang happy birthday to Sonic (Well, a man dressed up as Sonic).
^ A Chao watching TV in a TV (bottom left)
^ Puyo Pop Fever was a popular attraction
^ Could this be the return of Sega Pico?
^Sonic makes the peace sign while Shadow makes his own unique gesture.
On the 27th of June the fair will be at the Sapporo dome in Hokkaido*.

I got a cool Legend of Zelda shirt for reserving Halo 2 of all things. It has a sprite of Link on it and says 'Sword Play'. Pretty cool, it is now ranked as one of my favorite shirts so I will wear it a lot unlike Sega. I've only worn it once so far though cause I haven't done laundry in a week or two.
