DeNA’s Mobagatown site, which hit 5 million users with over 400 million daily page views back in May, has announced an interesting summer Yukata campaign. In co-operation with Aeon dept. store the companies have set-up a virtual avatar catalogue from which members can build, for a modest fee, their outfit based on actual products complete with best dressed contest prizes. This would seem to be a rather slick ad. campaign ultimately designed to drive purchases of the real thing just in time for the summer matsuri (festival) season. The company ran a similar campaign for Nike where customers who bought physical goods were rewarded with virtual prizes.
