Tokyo Game Show (東京ゲームショウ (とうきょうゲームショウ) Tōkyō Gēmu Shō), abbreviated TGS, is a yearly convention held at Makuhari Messe in Chiba, Japan. First held in 1996,[1] Tokyo Game Show is the biggest gaming convention in Japan and one of the biggest in the world.[2] The first two days are for the industry and the final two days for the general public.

In 2015, Voltage had a booth at the event from September 17 to 20. That year, they showcased three of their otome games, namely Hana Yori Dango: F4 and First Kiss, Princess in the Mirror: Love Palace, and Scandal in the Spotlight.

Voltage's booth was located in Hall 6 of the convention center during their time at Tokyo Game Show in 2015.[3] Besides Hana Yori Dango: F4 and First Kiss, Princess in the Mirror: Love Palace and Scandal in the Spotlight were highlighted for the event. Actors were hired to portray characters from the latter two apps.[4] Instead of characters, two men dressed as butlers were used as guides to the world of Hana Yori Dango: F4 and First Kiss.[5]

On September 19, a question panel with Yuya Matsushita, Jin Shirasu, Mackenyu Arata, and Ryuji Kamiyama, who were cast as the F4 in Hana Yori Dango: The Musical, was held at Voltage's booth.[6] It was also their first appearance portraying the F4, before the musical's premiere in January 2016.[7] A panel interviewing voice actor Hiro Shimono took place at Voltage's booth on September 20.[5]

Voltage had a campaign titled "Ikemen Battle," where people would vote for their favorite of the actors at the booth. Users were required to have a Twitter account as they had to tweet Voltage to vote. Eight users were entered into a lottery to win an iTunes or Google Play gift card worth 3,000 yen.[8] Takashi Maeda (前田 剛史 () ) was announced as the winner on September 20, 2015.[9]
