“Everyday Gyoda Store (Gyoda City, Saitama Prefecture),” the world’s first game center in the world that was recognized as the world’s first “Guinness World Record for the highest number of crane game machines installed per store” in 2012, and the Guinness World’s No. Operates “The Number One Crane Game Center in the Universe, Everyday Totekiya Tokyo Main Store (Yashio City, Saitama Prefecture)”, which opened with the number of crane games installed exceeding the “Guinness World Record for the number of crane games installed” at the time. Toyo Co., Ltd. (Representative Director: Hideo Nakamura/Head Office: Kitamoto City, Saitama Prefecture, hereinafter referred to as the Company), whose corporate philosophy is “Creating Smiles,” is a new facility specializing in crane games, the largest in Tokyo, with an area the size of 13 tennis courts. “Everyday Tamanokuni Store (Tama City, Tokyo)” opened on July 8, 2023, and children up to 6th grade of elementary school will be invited for free on December 17th (Sunday). For the first time, we held a Christmas crane game class event where a crane game expert dressed as Santa Claus taught us how to do it. Naoya Igarashi, a crane game professional who is certified as a professional crane game professional by the Japan Crane Game Association (current manager of our company, Everyday Totekiya Tokyo Main Store), dresses up as Santa Claus and shows you how to play crane games while dressed as Santa Claus. The Christmas crane game class event was held twice on the day: the morning session starting from 1.10:30 am and the afternoon session starting from 2.14 pm.

All the children who participated took turns operating the crane game and had the opportunity to actually try and catch something for themselves.
The event was very enjoyable not only for the children but also for their parents, with many parents explaining how to catch professional crane games and recording their children’s games on their smartphones. I feel that it was.
