In addition, this event was an experiment of the social TV.



A clear movie was broadcasted in this way in the virtual world. There weren't breaking, lag and noise.

























In addition, 10,000 people were able to participate in this event at the maximum. This event was big one step for AmebaPigg.

It's party time! (in DeNA - Mobage Town)

"Mobage Open platform Forum 2010" was held in Shinagawa, Tokyo on June 4. It's DeNA not to mention sponsorship.

The conference report is here. (I yet not all write it. (；´Д｀) )

These are states of the parties.















The Japanese social platform SNS are three kinds of "mixi" "Mobage Town" "Gree" now.
But, Mobage Town seems to be most successful.

DeNA CEO Ms.Namba says, Mobage Town's PV is about 2 times of mixi and Gree. And, 241 social games were released in a half year. Furthermore, the offtake of the virtual currency doubled 10 in a half year.
Magnificence of the cooking of this party shows success above all! (^-^)

Do you want to save the food expenses? Then let's plow the virtual field!

Agriculture social game is extreme popularity now in Japan. Japanese social game developers began the development of the Japanese original agriculture game, too.

This mixi apps "農力村(Noryokumura)" is very unique in that.
(農=Agriculture, 力=Power, 村=Village)

http://mixi.jp/run_appli.pl?id=19547　(Login to mixi is necessary)


Noryokumura consists of mainly in a vegetable garden and a rice field. Users arranges them and decorations items and makes myfield.


There are various kinds to rice. There are various kinds to rice, and a production place and the taste are different each.


Volume of production increases when we put a scarecrow.

Not different from other agriculture social games to here. But...


They begin to present the real crops to users in July. For example, when you produce 2kg Koshihikari(The one of the kinds of rice) in game, real 2kg Koshihikari arrive in your home.

Virtual goods in the social game are changed for reality goods! (*ﾟーﾟ)

For the first, farmer Mr. Tanaka's crops are presented for users.

Do you remember how much you spent on virtual goods?

In the findings of PlaySpan & Frank Magid Associates in July, 2009, people of 51% forget the virtual goods purchase amount.

「去年仮想アイテムの購入にいくら使いましたか？」---51%が「忘れた」(THE SECOND TIMES)
http://www.secondtimes.net/news/world/20090731_item.html

Therefore I added up the conventional virtual goods purchase costs.

*Today's market...
100JPY = about 1USD, 0.88EUR, 7.47CNY

Habbo Hotel Japan(R.I.P)

5000 yen

total...

80000 yen!!!!!　Σ(ﾟДﾟ;)

These are not expenses of the companies. Money of my own entirely. Because the reason these aren't recognized as company's expense.

The thing which I purchased is clothes and furniture of the avatars till now. But, if there are 80000 yen, I can buy my clothes and furniture. And Virtual goods for 11500 yen disappeared because daletto world and Habbo Hotel Japan were extinct.

But I will buy virtual goods in the future. Because the true understanding is impossible if I don't play myself.

Go to FamilyMart to buy a virtual currency

At the daytime of today, I went to FamilyMart to buy electronic money "Web money" to charge a AmebaPigg's virtual currency.

Web money is one of the Japanese main electronic money. Anyone can easily buy it in a convenience store. (Prepaid cards don't spread for some reason in Japan. Why?)


By the way, the neighbor of FamilyMart is a Cyber agent(Companies operating AmebaPigg).


This is "Fami Port". The purchase of various tickets, the payment of public utilities charges, the EC settlement and the purchase of various electronic money are possible.


Choose "Web money" on a screen.


Next, choose the purchased amount. I bought it for 2,000 yen.


Then, receipt comes out.


Take this to a cash register and make a payment.


Then a salesclerk outputs such paper. A cord for realization is written in this.


And, access mypage of the Web money's site.


Click "入金(charge)".


Input a realization cord.


Next, access Ameba's mypage. Realize Web money in Ameba's virtual currency "Ame gold".


Choose the amount of realization.


Realization completion!

The rate,

100 yen=100 Ame gold.

(100 yen= about 1USD, 0.88EUR, 7.46CN)


Log in to AmebaPigg. There is AmebaPigg's live Show area "Pigg Dome".


I bought this T-shirt. This is "ticket T-shirt" of Show. The price was 300 Ame gold. This is expensive for the price of the T-shirt. But cheap for the price of the ticket.

AmebaPigg holds the live music event of the artist for the first time on June 25.
