The centerpiece was hands-on play on competition PCs built with Mouse Computer's gaming brand G TUNES and fitted with the EXCERIA PRO G2 SSD, the same configuration used at the esports competition for the 20th Asian Games in Aichi-Nagoya in 2026. Visitors played Street Fighter 6 to sample the drive's short load times under conditions close to what tournament players use. The booth also displayed consumer SSDs including the EXCERIA PRO G2, and showed color variations for the EXCERIA PLUS G2 Portable SSD as a reference exhibit ahead of launch, with shades named Sumi, Momiji, Ruri, Matcha, and Kinako. A collaboration gachapon with Mouse Computer ran at the booth, and guest talk events were scheduled for the public days.","whyItMatters":"A memory maker using a consumer game show to put its esports-certified drive in visitors' hands is hardware marketing aimed at players rather than enterprise buyers, and the Asian Games credential is the pitch.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eKioxia frames the EXCERIA PRO G2 SSD as the official gaming SSD for esports at the 20th Asian Games in Aichi-Nagoya, and the booth PCs use the same configuration as the tournament machines.
