Masahiro Sakurai's reflections on Tokyo Game Show 2020 Online in his latest Famitsu column, translated by Siliconera:
  • “It’s difficult to find the programs we want to watch. When we left it all to YouTube’s recommended [videos] AI, we couldn’t really reach our desired programs.”
  • “There is a necessity to match information with expectations. I got the impression that there will be bad reputations if they continue to be deployed like variety shows. There might be a need to make the title and content clear beforehand. NieR had one titled ‘A special with practically no new info,’ which is a clever one!”
  • “I felt like the comments tend to get rough. I had the impression that people instantly started to mount and self-assert. I couldn’t stand it, so I did things like closing the comment bar. Unfortunately, there are practically no solutions to this.”
  • “There were opportunities lost due to the long-stretched programs. It’s good that there is a festive feel to them. But on the other hand, there were also demerits, such as getting difficult to focus on favorite titles or clashing with other programs.”
  • “As an extremely important point, every development also received a huge impact from the coronavirus pandemic. This game show was held with a huge handicap. I want to thank every maker [company] for doing their best.”
