Weekly Toro Station (週刊トロ・ステーション, Shūkan Toro Sutēshon) was a video game developed by Bexide and Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Portable. It was the replacement for Mainichi Issho and was released on November 11, 2009 through the Japanese PlayStation Store. Some services were terminated on March 28, 2013, and was completely terminated at the end of September 2013.

Game Center (ゲームセンター)

All ten mini games from Mainichi Issho were gathered and available for free in the Game Center (ゲームセンター, Gēmu Sentā). That included the once pay per play games that required a service subscription such as the cosplay license. The Game Center's collectible capsule toys could be purchased with medals (10 medals cost 100 yen, 60 medals were 500 yen). There were all kinds of mini games: solo games, two-player games, online multiplayer games, some of them were even motion sensor controlled.

  1. Mainichi Right Brain Ranking (まいにち右脳ランキング)
  2. Mainichi Right Brain Battle (まいにち右脳バトル)
  3. Mainichi Picture Shiritori (まいにちピクチャーしりとり)
  4. Angel Shooting (天使シューティング)
  5. Koi no Mi no Bori (コイの三のぼり)
  6. Nobi Nobi Snake (のび のび スネーク)
  7. Toro Racer (トロレーサー)
  8. Bowling (ボウリング)
  9. Speed (スピード)
  10. Tennis (テニス)

Platinya Membership (プラチニャ会員)

"Platinya" was a pun at "platinum" and "nya", the latter being the Japanese equivalent to "meow", the cat's scream. Platinya Membership consisted in an 800 yen 30-day subscription that allowed the gamer to get access to exclusive contents such as Toro Station back numbers.
