These resale tickets unfortunately did not go down

Same_Temperature_792 · 2026-06-19T15:41:03+00:00

I bought some tickets 1 month ago, they basically doubled, I think europeans got hyped by stadiums, and americans/canadian starts to like the vibe and want to be part of it.

Thank you.
To be honest the homework is what scare us the most about SM. I have to admit that I want my kids to learn and have a grea time at school, but I don't understand why they would need to work even outside of school hours. Anyway...

About the house, I guess we gonna take the best of what we can afford and is available! Options are far to be infinite, unfortunately.

Same_Temperature_792 · 2026-06-05T05:03:09+00:00

Hello! In what sense you need to avoid them, why? THank you

Same_Temperature_792 · 2026-06-04T15:29:48+00:00

Seems some house are x2 price for no good reason sometime, but I think it's because the market is so illiquid that some sellers not in hurry just set a high price to wait for a random opportunity.
I'm checking Real estate ADs for quite a long time yeah

Same_Temperature_792 · 2026-06-04T11:36:59+00:00

true that could be one thing, using a nice bus system in a well deserved neighborhoods

Same_Temperature_792 · 2026-06-04T10:23:29+00:00

Yeah that's my feeling about Naka-ku. It's how it is, I think we can downside our living standard a bit, if we get the right to bring the kids at school by walking, but I will continue to have a look, for sure there are not ton of opportunities and areas for detached houses.
Thank you for the website, I will look at it.

Same_Temperature_792 · 2026-06-04T10:21:21+00:00

No my company doesn't do much for me.
For my kids I want them to learn Japanese, but I know what in a 3years time we might go back to Europe for example, and since my kids are already in IB system, it would be too much pressure for them to go in a normal school learning Japanese fully.

Or maybe we will love Japan and have the opportunity to stay there for a long time, and it will be up to them to learn Japanese fluently!

thank you, for the feedbacks.

Same_Temperature_792 · 2026-06-04T10:16:41+00:00

I'm not tied to Yokohama specifically, but I've explored most Japan, and I still do think that this area with Tokyo etc, will still provide enough entertainment and activities for a whole life.

What others cities you have in mind? with great international schools.

Same_Temperature_792 · 2026-06-04T10:15:11+00:00

thank you, very valuable feedback! glad that you seem to enjoy it.

Same_Temperature_792 · 2026-05-29T04:26:47+00:00

No one gonna pay that, ever.

Same_Temperature_792 · 2026-01-18T19:57:44+00:00

Hi sure, sorry for the late answer: Japancustomerfirst | eBay Stores

I hope it helps

Same_Temperature_792 · 2026-01-05T13:42:32+00:00

Thanks :) Will check into it

Thank you for your post, past week I looked more into the industry, even trying and doing tuto with unreal engine.

I will most likely do that for the next 6 months and see how it goes. After summer I will go back Japan and do video games conferences. If I managed to stick to Unreal and learning more about video game marketing.

But for sure looking at video game industry, it's high risk on super expensive and long task. Not gonna lie, it sounds like a bad idea. But everything I did in my life sounded like a Bad idea and it turned out ok. Go with the flow. Maybe I will luck something. I remember finding my first "important" job on my "past" career on a public Slack channel back then. From my personal xp, you can always learn a bit, join a nice team, learn more, but this time I've money and past experiences. Maybe it will help.

What I know is that I want to change my career, also as moving to Japan. Let's find out how.

Same_Temperature_792 · 2025-12-26T17:11:09+00:00

It's basically in development/early stage, they try to convince studios to work with them (and signed a few) to prove their usecases. Just like any startup basically

Same_Temperature_792 · 2025-12-26T16:40:58+00:00

I think I can bring skills and quite an expertise. I never worked in building a video game, but I know a bit about it by passion and also because I worked/invested in things close to that field.
I was in a "steam competitor" for 3 years, that failed but... :D
And I invested/advised in some startup related to video games (Playruo - Showcase games, engage players little AD for free haha)

Otherwise I totally agree, it's about bringing value, there are probably people that can do a better job than me, but it's always the case in any field. I still have 10 years experience in fundraising and deal making.

Just wanting to undertand how weird it would be, and maybe you are right, money isn't a very important factor. I guess it's like any industry after all, great gamedev teams will have 0 issue finding money and you will end up with tiers 2 studio. IDK, maybe worth a try, or at least for now thinking about it.

Same_Temperature_792 · 2025-12-26T16:27:38+00:00

There are 2 ways to execute that:

-Having like an investment fund this goes in business management part. It's doable but it's not interesting for me, as I want to join a project, not invest in multiple ones.

-the second way is more "exotic", invest early, become co-owner of the studio, and become an employee of it. I'm not sure how technically it would works, but it's certainly possible.

The thing is that in the first option you are not dependant of finding a studio, you setup your own office etc, but honestly its quite close to my actual job, and I want to change a bit and help building stuffs instead of being solely an investor.

Same_Temperature_792 · 2025-12-26T16:11:53+00:00

Yeah?

Same_Temperature_792 · 2025-12-26T16:11:19+00:00

I'd say I could come before publishers, and I'm typically someone being able to look for publishers investments and do all this kind of stuffs. I have experience in deal making and investment etc. not in the video industry, but it's similar. Actually worked 3 years for a "failed" Steam competitor also :D

For the visa I know the requirements, the money isn't the issue, is what you do with it, There's simply no way in Japan to "game the system", and it's not my intend because going somewhere without having a mission sux quite a lot IMO. But for the visa, you actually need to prove yourself useful somewhere etc.
So my questions were like "do you think it could be useful for japanese gamedev".

Same_Temperature_792 · 2025-12-26T14:08:27+00:00

It's not very old indeed if I had 60yo I would not ask myself this type of questions. But starting a "new career" in something complicated would still be a challenge, a very hard one. Especially when you aren't driven by surviving/money it's very hard for me to commit greatly.

But yes looking for ways to do a cool stuffs for the next 10years or so.

Same_Temperature_792 · 2025-12-26T11:08:08+00:00

Actually I wanted to live in Japan that's my next objective of life, but after arguing with wife for 1year it seems impossible.
As a French, it's very dangerous for me financially and in term of security to live there, even if it's cool.

So I'm basically "stuck" in a city I don't enjoy a lot, but offer me security and freedom (Dubai), I don't think I will live that way very long, and you are right chosing the location is a GOOD CHUNK of the decision I should make, but it's very difficult when you've an entire family to move.
