Lawson to Install Arcade Crane Games in Stores Across Japan

Yuka Kato from The Mainichi:

In the future, convenience stores may become the new base for crane games. Lawson hopes that "people will be able to casually enjoy playing the games at their local convenience stores nationwide." It plans to expand its crane game services by offering original prizes that can only be obtained at the stores where the games are installed and by linking the games to campaigns.

This weblog is slowing turning into a crane game news site. At least this will give me a reason to go to Lawson.
