    Neopet's at Gamecon in SG

    Neopet's booth in the Games Con at Singapore lol haha. Well its just as i expected nobody in sg really cares about it lol Since to the people here the only 2 reaction you gets when you mention neopet is :
    1) What is neopets
    2) Oh i thought they are dead long ago ? they are still alive ?


    My guildies went over and below are some of the photos they shared. You get a goodie bag consist of items in the image below.

    the Superfan tier ticket gets this shoyru sticker :

    Below are some of the photos of the booth and the merchs they had. They mention that this round its mainly merchs and no codes.

    Being a kacheek fan im pretty happy that the kacheek hat got sold out xD

    Well thats basically it , except for the neopets booth the rest are filled with people. Whereas the other went to see the cosplayers eating walking around (waiting for the afternoon session) and the Dota competition outside of the convention hall.

    Realized i forgot to add in this , the staffs there tending the booth are from the Hong Kong marketing branch which have no clue on the neopets stuffs haha xD

    Guidlie ask them some questions and told me this :
    One of them can't pronounce kadotie. Doesn't even know Maraquan and asked if it's a rare paintbrush

    The booth looks cute. Did they sell the hoodies on site?
    I feel bad for that marketing person, they seem like the kind that doesn't do research on the topic and would make those "Level1 crook & level30 mafia" kind of advertisements.

    Thank you for sharing!

    Based on the apathy you described about visitors' reactions to the stall, I do wonder what KPIs this marketing stunt had and how central TNT assesses its ROI from brand awareness events in lesser markets... from the sound of it, this one certainly wasn't a hit

    In any case, the stickers and Kacheek fan look good!

    That Shoyru sticker though!! I love it.

    Neopets TCG! I wonder how that would do against the other TCGs currently lol. I'd probably get some anyways just for the memories.

    I'm kinda sad that the people working there don't even know much about Neopets.

    The roadmap is interesting! I'm not really sure if i'm interested in any other products, but should be worth a look!

    Thanks for sharing! I love the Kougra pop socket
    Sad it wasn't a hyped con but at least it's good to see them making an effort to be present.

    @(you need an account to see links), yeah i think the booth was just meant to be placed there to get some attention, as neoepts gets covered by the other games exhibitors. I think his main purpose was the first 2 days which was only meant for members of the industry whereas the remaining 3 days for open for publics. For him to do pitching, networking and other stuffs. My guildmates got Dominic to sign on the kacheek fans haha and then he ran away with some excuses after like 3 fans.
    drop you a link here : (you need an account to see links)

    Here is the floorplan , and the (you need an account to see links)
    (you need an account to see links)
    .

    @(you need an account to see links) , sadly i dont think neo TCG would have an impact aside from their own community of neopet lovers like you mention. But neo tcg still gives out the redemption code don't they ? i remember io bought a few booster back then when i was a kid. Well i guess its just work and go for them since most people just work for money, which is having an ideal job which is what your passion/interest is just that few % of the people.

    @(you need an account to see links) , haha , a friend bought the kacheek ver but i dont have the picture of it. The plushies seems to give a redeem code which lets them get some r101 np items, its only a selected few like kadoatie , meepit and slorg. I believe his main agenda in the con is just for networking and business trade related xD

    @(you need an account to see links) Hope they will fix the lag for events if not imagine it as laggy as the CC event lol.
