In 2013, the original Nintendo (Famicom) has come to its 30th year. In 2012, social games caught on in Japan. Whereas the domestic home-use game market shows a decline, the social game market is predicted to grow by 110% this year, and those two markets are becoming as big as each other. In 2013, console makers, software makers, and other game-related companies are striving for survival.

This time around, our focus is on the movements of domestic game companies and we report on major game makers' strategies to challenge the next generation market.

On the other hand, we also visited an indie game maker and tried to examine their way of making new games.

Main Cast:
COO at Capcom Co. Ltd.: Haruhiro Tsujimoto
