Professor Sakamoto, Masaya Matsuura  (PaRappa, Vib Ribbon), Baiyon, Manami Matsumae (Megan Man, Mighty No.9), Saori Kobayashi, Takayuki Nakamura, and Chipzel will all perform musical pieces throughout the conference. Luke Crane will also host a presentation about the mechanics of a successful crowdfunding campaign.

The BitSummit 2014 conference will run from March 7th to March 9th, and will be held at the Kyoto International Exhibition Hall in Japan. Gaming fans will be able to attend the event on Saturday and Sunday, while Friday is reserved for the press.
