100% sure:
They will not announce sexromps at such a high profile event. In fact I think they want to move away from sexromps all together.

Announces Makai Tenshi Djibril series from Front Wing

5% sure:
POSSIBLY hard copies of their "All Ages" games (Kira Kira+Higurashi Question Arcs) but I doubt it

I think they could go a long way if they managed to snatch titles that are already widespread as anime titles. Like otoboku, they are my noble masters, etc.

They'll be like "Oh, a game based on my favorite anime!" and buy it instantly.

I went yesterday. It was alright I guess. I hadn't gone for 3 years so I didn't know what to expect. Exhibition hall was certainly smaller though. A LOT less booths.

Highlights for me included the Kitamura Eri panel. She said she wanted to voice a yandere. Also loved how most of the questions were basically just voice requests. Nice Kugyuu and Hocchan impersonations though. The Toradora producer must have been surprised at all the Angel Beats questions.

I certainly enjoyed her panel more than Hocchan's panel. No, sir, I do not want to watch Toradora's first episode. I would like to listen to her answer some questions. She was still pretty adorable.

I also managed to get free tickets to the May'n and Nakajima Megumi concert. Great stuff. Gave me some time to rest too. I would've loved to go to Nakajima's panel today though.

Best cosplayer I saw was the somewhat short Zangief who was talking in his accent and dancing in the arcade room.

Also, I asked NIS about the ETA on Ar Tonelico 3 and Totori. The guy I asked was one of the editors on the project and they said they're just taking it easy. Expect a release around next year. Q2 or Q3. Those NIS people are really nice people to talk to.

Nothing else came in my head. My friend went back there for today so I could possibly give him a call and ask him to visit the booth for you guys if you have any questions. The thing is that the Exhibit Hall closes at around 6 PM[?] PST and he's at a gathering right now so I'm not sure if he'll make it. It was hilarious to play an untranslated Rorona at their booth though. No more mini games for gathering materials.
