NewswireTODAY - /newswire/ - Cramlington, Northumberland, United Kingdom, 2009/04/22 - Capcom, sponsors of the Games Village at the London Movie Comic Media Expo 15, have purchased 40 Gaming Chairs from Bean Bag Bazaar to provide seating for visitors to their Chill Out zone - BeanBagBazaar.co.uk.

Capcom - the leading video game developer, have purchased 40 Gaming Chairs from Bean Bag Bazaar for their chill out zone at the London Movie Comic Media Expo 15 at ExCel London.

The event, to be held on 23rd and 24th May, is the UKs No 1 consumer show for Movies, Comic, Anime, Manga and Video Games.

Mark Dolder, Owner of Bean Bag Bazaar commented "This is a real coup for us. Capcom are huge within the gaming industry and this provides some welcome coverage for us. We initially sent a sample item to Capcom as we were so confident in the quality of our product, and thankfully they were very impressed - both with the product and the price. "

Specialist chairs for gamers are increasing in popularity and data from Google Insights shows an increase of 500% since 2007 for the search term "Gaming Chairs" in the UK.

Mark added "The gaming industry is massive and although there are other gaming chairs available on the market, we felt that there was a gap which we could fill. Our bean bags are already the leading product on the market and it was a natural progression to move into more specialist areas such as bean bags created for gamers."

Capcom, who began life in Japan in 1979, have been a leader in the video game industry for over 25 years. In 2008 they were one of the top 50 software companies in the world. They are responsible for many classic games including Street Fighter, Resident Evil, Lost Planet and MotoGP.

Capcom are sponsoring the Games Village at the Movie Comic Media Expo 15. Tickets for the event are available priced from £10 per day per adult.
