Mouse Computer Supplies G TUNE PCs for Free CONNeCT TOCHIGI 2026 Event
The sponsorship puts a DFM-branded G TUNE machine in front of walk-up visitors rather than buyers, so the hands-on booth is the product demo and the community event at once.

The booth framing is hands-on rather than spectator. ASCII.jp describes a key feature as visitors experiencing the competitive side of esports and the appeal of playing firsthand, "which differs from watching," through matches against top players. The same piece says visitors try the machine for its "comfortable controls and high rendering performance unique to gaming PCs."
Mouse Computer's stated aim for the sponsorship is to widen chances to try gaming PCs and to promote the spread of esports culture and contact with the local community.
