The event, titled \"[Yoshimoto] Noda Crystal Corps de Meccha Chameleon,\" started at 13:00 that day. Seven performers took part: Noda Crystal, Yui P, R Fujimoto, and the four members of Girly Record Channel. The MC was Shinichiro, a former Yoshimoto comedian and eSports caster. In Meccha Chameleon, players paint their own characters to blend into the map and hide from a seeker within a time limit. R Fujimoto, known for Dragon Ball impressions, opened the first round as the seeker but was too slow to catch anyone, and the hide-and-seek turned into a chase. The stage used a NEXTGEAR JG-A7G6T White TGS2026 Exhibition Commemorative Model, a water-cooled desktop with an AMD Ryzen 7 5700X processor, an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti GPU, 32GB of memory, and a 1TB SSD.","whyItMatters":"Mouse Computer picked a low-spec-friendly party game and an entry-level NEXTGEAR brand for the stage slot at a booth otherwise built around high-end hardware reveals, including a desktop gaming PC with a mobile CPU announced at the show.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eR Fujimoto opened the first round as the seeker in a Vegeta mood, and Yui P needled him with \u0026#34;Vegeta isn\u0026#39;t all that great\u0026#34; as the round fell apart.
