For gadget enthusiasts, there are many products where you know the specs but genuinely want to get your hands on the real thing. Gaming gadgets, in particular, possess an appeal that can only be truly understood by experiencing them firsthand—things like key feel, fit, and texture.

That's why at the ASCII-sponsored event "TOKYO Gaming-PC STREET 9 in LIFORK AKIHABARA II," held on Saturday, October 10th, a wide array of gaming gadgets that garnered attention this summer will be extensively showcased. You'll have the chance to personally experience products recommended by our editorial team.

In this article, we'll introduce the gaming monitor "LCD-GCQ271UD" from among the gaming gadgets on display.

Head to Akihabara on Saturday, October 10th! Come and Experience the LCD-GCQ271UD in Person

Gaming gadgets have aspects that cannot be fully understood from photos or specs alone, such as the feel of pressing buttons, the weight of dials, and the texture.

That's precisely why, at this event, we are prioritizing creating a space where you can directly experience a large number of noteworthy gaming gadgets that you'll want to get your hands on this summer, and that we highly recommend you "definitely touch!"

We've gathered only the gaming gadgets that you'll "absolutely want to touch and check out" this summer, so please take this opportunity to experience them firsthand.

Our editorial staff will also be at the venue, so please feel free to ask if you have any questions.

We look forward to seeing you at LIFORK Akihabara II on October 10th!

It's Happening in Akihabara! First-timers are Welcome! Touch All the Gaming Gadgets You're Curious About!

Gaming PCs, keyboards, mice, headsets—why not try touching and comparing all the products you're interested in? Even after looking at photos and reading spec sheets, what remains unknown until the very end is "what's it like to actually touch it?" So, let's try out everything that interests you in Akihabara!

The date for "TOKYO Gaming-PC STREET 9 (GPS 9)," an event where you can actually touch and experience the latest gaming gadgets and consult with editorial staff, has been decided! It's Saturday, October 10, 2026!

And here's the important part: this event welcomes you just to look, touch, or compare. It's an event where you can freely try out gadgets at your own pace. There's no need to buy anything, so feel free to drop by!

There's no need to be intimidated, thinking, "PC events seem to be full of experts and hard to get into," or "What if they try to push me to buy something like in a store?" It's perfectly fine even if you're not knowledgeable about PCs! Of course, participation is free.

At the venue, you can actually experience various devices such as keyboards, mice, and headsets. The key point is that you can carefully compare things like size, keyboard key feel, and mouse grip, which are hard to understand online, right there on the spot. If you're unsure "what to choose," you can also easily consult with ASCII editorial staff.

Furthermore, prize giveaways, mini-stages, and puzzle-solving events are also planned. First, just come and play, see, touch, and remember what caught your eye. It's an event designed to be enjoyed with that level of casualness!

Of course, we'll also be holding the popular prize giveaway from last time. And we'll be doing it big! We've also prepared plenty of novelty items as souvenirs for your visit, and we eagerly await your attendance.
