Namco Bandai — E3 2012 (15,000 sq ft Booth Activation)
At E3 2012, Namco Bandai transformed a 15,000 sq ft space into an immersive showcase across its flagship IPs—Tekken Tag Tournament 2, Star Trek: The Game, and Pac-Man—culminating in a pop-culture crossover moment with Snoop Dogg.
The Tekken activation was a focal point: featuring a custom “Snoop Dogg Stage” where Snoop appeared as a non-playable character, complete with original music (“Knocc ‘Em Down”) debuting as part of the game’s preorder bonus. MCV/DEVELOP+2TheGrio+2
The visual-thematic design leaned into street art culture, including a Tekken promotional bus dressed in graffiti by notable artist Sket-One, reinforcing the booth’s edgy atmosphere. fightvg.com
The booth’s experiences weren’t just gaming demos—they bridged music, celebrity, art, and fandom. Snoop Dogg’s presence—on stage, in game, and in visuals—added star power and cultural resonance.
