I got an email last night from Uniqlo that stated that Hideo Kojima and Yoji Shinkawa will be visiting two Uniqlo stores in NYC (see information below). It's also the first time that Shinkawa will be visiting the U.S. so it will be an awesome opportunity to finally get his autograph.
So, are any of you in the NYC area planning to attend, or interested in attending? I will be going to both signing sessions, and thought that it would be cool if we can have a SSF get-together. If you're going, let me know and I'll add you to the list below. Also, if you can PM me your email address that would be great - it will be much easier to for everyone to facilitate conversations via email instead of the PM system.
