Older News and Updates

Look forward to Gaming Night 3 - 13th August 2010

We're still dealing with some data loss problems and some of Pyon's hardware mysteriously imploding, so website updates will still be a little slow. We apologise in advance for any inconveniences.

Since we had such a good response to the previous Gaming Night, we're running another one! Come support Pyon and Rebel Empire at Gaming Night 3: Powered Up Gaming. Details are available on the events page.

State of the Website - April 2010

We've had to restore the website from an older backup, so please give us a little time to try and bring it back up to speed. Hopefully, this will be the end of our website woes!

The updates page has been particularly hard hit in terms of data loss, so it will probably always have a mysterious gap between the period of February to April 2010.

Our online shopping cart was the only true casualty, but we're working on getting it back up and ready to launch.

Pyon at Wai-con

Thank you everyone who has come to see us and support us at Wai-con! We almost sold out, and we're ordering new stock today!

I hope you're all looking forward to our Gaming Night coming up on the 20th of March 2010 with Rebel Empire! We've got some special traders coming along... (we can't tell you who yet!) Tournaments for games like Soul Calibur, a Rebel Empire demostration, Yu-Gi-Oh Academy, and much, much more. Detail are on the events page.

Pyon at Genghis-con - 20th January 2010

Genghiscon was a blast! Thank you to everyone who came to see us and support us! And now that Wai-con is coming up on the weekend, we hope to see you there, too! Our free console gaming area has had an upgrade - a High Definition widescreen TV! Come along this Saturday and enjoy games like Dynasty Warriors 6, Dynasty Warriors Gundam, Warriors Orochi and more! Sunday will have more of a focus on arcade racing and shooter games, so be sure to drop by.

The PAGU stall is joining forces with some special guest traders for Wai-con! Look forward to it!

Attention cosplayers! There will be a small rest station with two chairs available at our stall for you, and there will water on hand! Ask at the stall for more details.

The Rebel Empire and PAGU Gaming Night will be shifted to the 20th of March, so mark your calendars! We hope to see you there!

Pyon on the move - 7th December 2009

Pyon has been working hard! We now offer free console gaming during special events, starting at the JAFWA marathon on the 12th December, then at Genghiscon, and also at Wai-con! We've also arranged for a small cosplay rest area while at Wai-con for all you wonderful cosplayers out there. Last but not least, don’t forget about our joint Gaming Night with Rebel Empire on the 27th of February!

Some of the games we have available for PS2 and PS3 include Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, Need For Speed: Shift, Dynasty Warriors 6, Dynasty Warriors Gundam, Soul Calibur 4, Time Crisis 4, Worms Fortress, Warriors Orochi, Midnight Club: Los Angeles Complete Edition, and Initial D Extreme Stage. We're up for suggestions on expanding our collection.

Would you like Pyon to host a cosplay shoot? If you’re interested, please contact us and let us know! You can call, e-mail or just talk to us in person.

With any luck, our much anticipated online shopping cart will be up and online by the 20th December! We apologize for the inconvenience.

We need forum content! Come over to our forum and say hi, share your ideas, talk about events, give us some suggestions, maybe draw art and put it up, or talk about games or anime that you like. We're waiting to hear from you! To the forum!

Arrival of the PAGU Stall - 16th October 2009

The PAGU stall will be at JAFWA on the 17/10/2009. Feel free to bring your handheld consoles and multiplayer games for a bit of fun! We suggest FF Dissidia, Mariokart and any NFS games you have (because Pyon is bringing those to play). Also, we've cleared up the problem with the Facebook link, yay!

We're here! - 6th October 2009

Pyon will be setting up its first stall at JAFWA very soon! We'll be selling interesting anime and gaming stuff as well as taking suggestions for our next run of stock. The launch date is still being determined.

We've also got business cards and fliers to hand out. Spread the word!

If all goes well, the PAGU stall will be making an appearance at Wai-con, Genghiscon, and Swancon!

The forums are up and running!

If you would like to help Pyon out, you could answer some of the polls, sign up on the forums and give your opinions. We'll be running contests and other fun events later on, so if you have some ideas you want us to consider, now is the time to let us know.

You can now follow Pyon on Twitter or Facebook! Yay! However, due to technical problems, we were unable to set up the shorter link to Pagupyon's Facebook, so you may have to search for "pagupyon" yourself. We apologise for the inconvenience.

For those interested, Pyon's owner (minion363) has a Dreamwidth blog here!
