Lots of walking if you want it, and a pretty interesting day. I went from there to ginza and then walked for several hours bar hopping until everything closed.
I'll be there in December as well and may do a repeat.
This would be Odaiba, also one of my favorite places in Tokyo. Check out the surreal Venusfort mall, complete with artificial sky, and be sure to finish off a hard day of sightseeing with a soak in the O-Edo Onsen hot spring complex!
