    Notice:Resolution of Operational Issues on Smartphones and Tablets

    Thank you for always playing JR East Train Simulator.

    We began supporting NVIDIA's cloud gaming service "GeForce NOW" on December 6th.
    However, we encountered issues on smartphones and tablets where pressing any button on the virtual controller or game controller resulted in multiple inputs from a single press.
    During this period, we worked diligently with NVIDIA to identify the cause, and we are pleased to report that the issue has now been resolved.
    We apologize for the delay in resolving this matter.
    We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused to many users regarding the operability.
    From now on, you can enjoy playing via GeForce NOW on your smartphones and tablets without any issues.

    Thank you for your continued support of JR East Train Simulator.
