Chereads / Game Market 1983 / Chapter 22 - EP. 22: Age of Feud

Chapter 22 - EP. 22: Age of Feud

In 1991, there was a voice that resounded in every place in the alley where the children were running.

And it was not only in Japan but also in Korea when I was a child.

"Hadogen!! "

"Saureuken!! "

"Tatsumaki Sendungak!! "

(In other words, Atatagen, this has a different name for each region.) 'Street Fire2' was one of the most powerful titles in the game center.

When you play the game by yourself, someone puts a coin in a fight on the opposite machine.

And the tension of the three-way two-time contest begins, and the winner and the loser are left speechless.

This simple, crisp way of fighting was the boss' favorite game to run the game center, thanks to the higher coin collection rate than other games.

I was able to loosen the delay of the unfamiliar special command in 1 and pick up eight characters that were individually different from the ones that had to be chosen only by Ryu and Ken.

In addition, a mid-bonus stage with relaxing elements such as vehicle breakers and log breakers and the appearance of a boss class character called the Four Kings, in addition to a playable character, was a good response for users.

And it was the chance of a prodigy to move on to Raon with such a great title.

"Hey!! I just saw on Pammy Communications today that Street Fires 2 is out with Raon in August! "

"Really!? "

When I visited Tamago Shop in Akiba, I could hear the voices of people coming from inside the store. Oh, by the way, today was the issue of the magazine...

"So you can play Spa 2 with a portable game? "

"And is that a communication cable? If you plug it in, there's two of you, like the Tamago Battle. "

"Wow, that would ruin the playroom."

The children's conversations made me smile unconsciously.

Of course, as they say, even if it could have some influence on the arcade market, it would not have been enough to be devastated by just one Spa 2.

Since '91, arcade centers have begun to pour out so many great games that they can be called the' Battle of War Era 'that Spa 2 was considered to be a monumental title for the formation of an era.

But soon, in SMK, "Samurai's Fighting Spirit" or "The Legend of the Eagle" or "Dragon Warrior."

The game market will be more active as more horrifying fighting games will spill out like this…

Specifically, SMK was quite cruel in the description of the fighting game, and many of the tricks that caused sensation in the fighting game world were released as a result of the character's dismemberment when he finished with a river slash in Samurai's soul.

That effect continued in the dragon kingdom, and when I finished with a special finish, I swallowed a mourning smile that reminded me of the last time I tried to end with a monarchy because of the choreography that tore women's clothes.

And then suddenly, over the course of 83 years, this moment of encounter with memories...

Anyway, Raon's release of Spa 2 was a title enough to amplify the expectations of new consoles for users.

"If Final Frontier 4 and Spa 2, the great fighting game, were launched, there would be no better start for Laon."

No... it's actually the best lineup.

I enjoy RPGs on an epic scale such as the Final Frontier, and when I'm tired, I swap cartridges to enjoy fighting games.

Fighting games, such as spas, also have the advantage of fighting against other people, so you can enjoy fighting games with your friends anytime, anywhere.

In addition, since we are also ready to play a cross-scrolling action game called Final Fight 89, Capco has greatly widened the genre for users to choose from.

The most surprising thing about the day I first met the super family at a very wealthy friend's house when I was young was that I could play Spa 2 at home, where I could only play in the arcade.

Although Capco's performance was higher than the arcade substrate used, the character's deterioration and frame felt a bit stiff, but what was going on on on TV was undoubtedly a Street Fire.

But now that I can enjoy that street fire in a little portable game, even I, who created a console called Raon, can't wait.

Then Miyazaki, who came into the office with the payment documents, asked me.

"So, sir, next month we'll have Tamago at Street Fire?" I've been looking at magazines today and I can't stop asking my customers... "

"Yes, exactly. I will be arriving on March 27th. Oh, and for the Thamago Collectors, please vacate one vending machine so that it can be sold exclusively to Street Fire for five days. "

"Yes!! I understand."

Tamago-san has access to street fire characters painted in 2D...

Once this alone, the revenue for the Tamago prize is expected to increase explosively.

Earlier in the production announcement, the next generation of Raon officially announced that he would not receive a royalty for the Rom cartridge produced by the Third Party.

Then Kawaguchi expressions that he couldn't understand my decision.

It wasn't because we were in charity, but because reducing the portion of the royalty we could earn from third parties made it difficult to extract production costs for the console.

Of course, the game shop was receiving a certain amount of royalty for downloading using flash memory cartridges, but that alone was not enough to generate a large revenue.

It was Tamago-san who appeared there as a diversion.

Third parties launching the game for Raon were able to register their collaboration with Tamago monsters as' optional ', and they did not have to pay for Loyalty in the Rom Cartridge as a condition of collaborating with their character.

Thanks to this, the Pentagon was able to increase Tamago-san's profits, and the Third Parties were able to earn additional profits in addition to their character's promotional effects.

Of course, this was not mandatory, so you could reject the collage offer, but in that case you would have to pay Loyalty in Lom Cartridge instead.

In the case of CAPCO, we initially wondered about the conditions we presented, but we added a detailed explanation and had a very positive reaction.

The lack of royalty in the Rom Cartridge is enough, as they have nothing to lose by using the Thamago prize to cover additional profits.

'They think Tamago-san is just a toy device that children play with, but if we put together these various characters, maybe one day we can create a new type of battle game? For example, a game in the style of Battle vs. Brawl where thousands of characters get tangled up in one place. Isn't it exciting to imagine the characters of Street Fire and Dragon Emblem battling in the same space? '

I signed the paperwork that Miyazaki gave me and returned it to her.

Then she asked me.

"But, sir, How is Mr. Uchimura these days? He hasn't been to the shops since he became a champion at the Tamago Monster Games last year. "

"Ah, Uchimura joined our Pentagon software last month as a wealth. But they're assigned to a special department, so they don't come out very well for the company. "

"Yes? What department is that? "

"We're doing a wonderful job of saving Uchimura's specialty. "

Miyazaki tilted his head to my smile for a moment.

Uchimu won the Tamago Monster Competition at the end of last year.

Uchimura, who had worked hard to raise the dragon emblem he accidentally acquired, won a Gear Entrance Ticket during the defending weekend and got a hot response before the champion.

The characters he extracted from the championship were still in the mouths of the users.

Every monster that pulled out the High Priestess Katrina, Firefighter Mirea, and Noctis in the palace was a super-freaking super-rare character.

Took three heroes out of Tamago, a tricky dragon emblem, and even I was amazed when I watched the competition.

The winner of the competition, Uchimu, became the first person to donate monsters to the Tamago Monster Sharing Machine with a 500,000 yen prize.

A sharing machine for Tamago monsters.

They were able to donate and distribute their Tamagos during certain event periods or at certain tournament victories, exchanging them for gift certificates that can be used in the Tamagos Shop depending on the monster's rarity.

Donated monsters can be redistributed to five people through monster sharers, which can be obtained using cash or gift certificates.

In other words, even those without dragon emblems, tamanas, or tamagos on the Final Frontier, can be fed new monsters as much as they want through monster sharers.

The data-driven monsters were easily available at 200 yen for sharing machines.

Coins showed the monsters currently in possession of the device on the monster sharer screen, and players were able to get one of the five monsters at random by selecting the five monsters they wanted and pressing the Share button.

I often used monster sharers a lot when I was stressed out about raising Tamago monsters, or when it was hard for friends to share data.

"By the way, it's Valentine's Day already. "

"I see. I'm especially excited about Valentine's Day this year. Kick Kick"

"Looking forward to it, Miyazaki is also a sneaky devil. "

"It's a special experience for users who have come to buy titles. "

Yeah, I guess so. In Miyazaki's reply, I smiled face to face.

&

"Take the chocolate!"

"Valentine's Day Chocolate!"

"I didn't make it with all my heart! Take the chocolate, anyway!"

A smile came out of Kaori's comment about handing chocolates to the guests.

"What are you talking about? Anyway, take the chocolate. And they're attached to the four tribes."

"Huh? Sir, when did you get here? "

"Just now."

I answered her question, gazing at the purchase procession, stretching out to the back of Kaori.

Today is February 14th.

It's a blessed day for lovers, but for gamers it's only the launch day of a new game.

I mean, I've seen women in queues, but it's sad to see most of them are men...

"We're going to start the event soon, so dress up quickly. "

"All I have to do is wear a cape. It's a vampire concept."

"So it's hanging upside down in the air? Like a bat.

" .... "

"I'm just kidding! Hahaha"

"Where is Hayashi? "

"If you're the captain, you should already be in zombie costume!"

Kaori replied, and I turned my head with a bloody smile.

Today is Valentine's Day, the first superfamily horror game.

The long march has cut the line to 500 people today.

Valentine's Day launched simultaneously in gaming shops around him, so he could shop in any shop in 10 minutes.

Hmm? But why are these people doing this?

They've come to challenge me to buy a special limited edition...

This Valentine's Day conception is a haunted house!

&

A few moments later, I took the staff elevator up to the third floor and was waiting for a guest at a dark register.

With the school closed down, I met all the ghosts hiding on the second floor, and had to come up to the third floor before I could reach this place with the register.

"Joon-Hyuk, I think he's about to start. "

At that moment, Yuki in a bloody uniform turned his head toward the voice calling out to me and was entering the register.

It's definitely a virgin ghost concept. Is it because you're short? You're just so cute.

Yuki wanted to attend the Valentine's Day launch event on Thursday, so she paid her annual visit and stayed by my side.

"It's going to take a while to get here, though. "

Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding.

"Shhhhh!!! "

You hear the first buyer scream.

At the same time, Yuki and I burst out a smile at the same time. This is so funny.

Today's event mission is to get through the haunted house quickly.

A person who had timed out and passed within 5 minutes was gifting a limited edition of 'Street Without Me'. (However, when I measured the time yesterday as a test, it was only 4 minutes and 30 seconds before I ran all of them alive. That is, if you stop encountering ghosts once, you can think of it as outgoing.) As I leaned on a flashlight for a narrow and dark road, the Pentagon staff who were hiding everywhere surprised the customers. Hayashina who dresses up as a zombie, Maurita who dresses up as a chainsaw killer, of course, stepped up to represent Kawaguchi and replaced him as a guard with her neck.

The first guest came in, screaming almost every 10 seconds and cheering me up and Yuki.

At the end of the second floor, I had to return the flashlight that I was holding to the employee dressed as an ambassador, so I had to walk from the third floor to this place relying on the light on the floor.

"Oops!! Ugh!!!! "

As I heard the scream of the guest coming up on the third floor approaching, Yuki and I slowly entered the facial expressions.

A moment later, the first guest with a white expression approached me and asked.

"W-was this the register? "

"Yes, it is. "

"Phew... I'm glad. But how long did it take me? "

At that moment, Yuki, who was hiding under the counter, came out screaming sharply.

"Kiyaaaahhhh!!!!! "

"Ahhhh!!!!! "

Yuki sits at the counter, screaming, looking at the back-stepping customer.

The limited edition was placed upon application.

"It took you nine minutes and 48 seconds. "

"Ugh... ughhhh..."

The first customer was groaning, lowering his waist to see if his legs had loosened.

"Thank you for your first Valentine's Day purchase. "

Above the counter was a limited edition package made of a box of chocolates.

Included in limited edition packages is an original video of the promotional footage that was released at last year's production conference with the Valentine's Day Story Conti Book. And there was an OST with all the BGMs in the game.

"And this is a separate video of the promotional footage of Final Frontier 4 and Dragon Emblem for those of you who passed in less than 10 minutes. Thank you for attending the Pentagon event. Sir."

"Oh, yes. Take care."

After the calculation, the first customer took the shopping bag and climbed up the elevator behind the counter.

"But Joon-Hyuk, it seems like it will take about 10 minutes per person, is that okay? I think he was standing out there with about 500 people, and he only challenges about six people an hour."

"Well, there's a limited edition stall out there, so shouldn't people get tired of waiting there? "

However, unlike what I expected, I asked through the radio and there seemed to be a lot of challengers.

Once I instructed the event planners to pair up and bring them up every 5 minutes, it was still a little easier.

"Unh!! "

"Ahhhh!! "

"Tsk!! Mom!!"

As the event progressed, various screams began to erupt downstairs.

Yuki screams sharply at the customers who are constantly being pushed by the calculations, but his throat breaks because there are fewer than 100 of them.

"I can't believe you went that far."

"Cough, cough, cough. I think I shouted too loud from the beginning. "

I gave a drink to Yuki, who was coughing.

"Take a break. I'll be watching Reggie. "

"It's okay. The shifts will be up any minute anyway. Let's rest together then. "

"Stubbornness..."

Yuki smiled at Bessie, turning the watch every time a guest came in with a surveillance camera installed at the entrance.

&

The Valentine's Day sale, which started at 10: 00 a.m., ended at 7: 00 p.m.

Today's voluntary employee engagement has been a great memory for our employees and our users.

Some users asked Kaori and Yuki, who dress up as ghosts and hand out chocolates, to take pictures together, and Mauritan's electric saw killer, who dresses up as a perfect quality, was also popular with users.

"You all look happy. "

I was looking at the employees laughing and talking about each other's costumes like children, and the man in the uniform approached me and asked.

Kawaguchi was making a guard whose neck was turned upside down when he turned his head to look strange.

"Jules? Are you okay? "

"Of course. Today was an unforgettable day of fun. It only took 500 sales too long, but I think it was a special experience.

Those people over there must feel the same way. "

Kawaguchi gladly looked at the employees who were taking pictures with the users in front of the venue.

"At the end of the day, not a single Mintendo employee showed up. "

"Maybe it's easier not to see each other now. "

"Well, that, too. "

"More importantly now. "

"Laon's launch. We look forward to a successful launch due to the addition of Spa 2 and Final Fight 89. "

"Of course, but wouldn't a knighted event not be enough impact? "

"Yes? Well, I would love to have a surprise announcement, but I think that's enough for now. "

"The launch event is a once-in-a-lifetime event. and the attention of its users will be immense. I felt desperate after two launch events with a portable gambler and a superfamily. "

"You must have something else in mind. "

"Well... I'm still working on it. "

"I'm excited that something else special and extraordinary will happen if it's what Joon-Hyuk does. "

The guard at the back of his neck and the vampire look smiling at each other.

&

Valentine's Day is fun when you see a raid house due to the nature of the horror genre.

So we asked each magazine not to mention the Valentine's Day attack for the next three months.

Communication technology has not yet been developed, and if only magazines could prevent the spread of the story of the game or the spoiler at the end.

Of course, there were PC-communication technologies using modems at this time, but there were not many homes with PCs because there was still no dissemination.

In particular, unlike my country, PC replenishment took place very slowly, but in the 2000s, there were not many homes with PCs in them.

Instead, the development of mobile phone communication technology has led to a trend since the late '90s that the Internet and mail are almost solved with mobile phones. (Now that I think about it, it's time for mobile phones to become available. You have to buy it right away...) One evening, a few days after Valentine's Day was launched.

When I returned home from work, I connected to PC communications using a modem.

Recently, one console gaming community was activating quite frequently because users were exchanging various information with each other using PC communication.

Within this community, of course, there was talk of Valentine's Day, which was recently released.

"Oh, it's not just another conversation room today."

I entered the chat room by swallowing a cup of warm coffee that I had already brought.

-Mr. K has entered. -

- Oh, mr. Hi K -

- Yeah, hi. -

I started noticing their conversations when I lightly greeted people.

Recently, the topic in this room was' Valentine's Day, 'so it was quite interesting to watch their conversations from the developer's perspective.

- I first saw a ghost chasing me backwards today, and I almost fainted. Sound Effects

I almost peed on it.

- If you run into him, climb up there. I hid under my desk because I was scared.

Cotton fucking-

- She's right. I can't believe I passed out looking at the eye-to-eye illustration... and the guard's scared, too. When I ran into him, I swirled my neck and chased him, and he was like a grotesque box, a one-man limited edition. Chasing the guard who actually returned from the haunted house.

I know, I almost punched...

- Limited Edition Offer!! I heard that if you deliver it in less than five minutes, you'll get a limited edition of "Street Without Me."

Did anyone take it? -

- There was one. -

- Oh, my God. He's on board. I tried, but the zombies were hanging from their ankles... isn't he cute, the one who saw the virgin ghost at the counter? - Oh, you mean the ghost at the end? After the event, I saw the real thing, and she's a very cute girl. Do you have a boyfriend? - In Yuki's sudden story, I almost spit out my coffee.

- She's cute, too, but she was wearing a bloody blouse in the hallway upstairs. I can assure you, if you remove your makeup, you'll look very pretty!! - Aah! I think I know who that is. You're tall and fit, right? If you're tall and fit, is that Mr. Sayuri from the lobby concierge?

The chat room continued to talk about the women who appeared at the Pentagon afterwards. Aside from Yuki and Sayuri, the chat room was heated up to the story of Kaori who was handing out chocolates in front of the event.

- By the way, has anyone broken this yet? Usually around this time, someone shows up who's cleared out of the game magazine, so it's gonna take some time. It's a little difficult.

I'm on the side.

- It's been a long time since I've sung a song. - Oh, what a song. Long time no see. I haven't been able to access Valentine's Day in a while. -

'What!? You've already cleared it!? '

This person, who used a peculiar nickname, "It's been a song for a long time," was also known as a significant game master within the community.

Well, if you launch the game, someone will have to clear it, but it's faster than I thought...

The chat room is hot again because of the song's clear news.

You cleared Valentine's Day? We cleared it an hour ago. - Whoo! Excellent. Then how do you open the science lab door on the first floor? I don't like it when I skip it, but please tell me how to open it. - Oh, that doesn't usually open. You can open it after the end. Damn, I didn't have to do that. - That science lab is amazing. - Why, is there a secret? - Wow, I really want to tell you, just clear it. A truly shocking ending awaits. I was just about to come in after clearing, but for an hour,

- I was bruised.

I'm curious! -

Just tell me. -

- No, we're not done yet. Don't say it!!! - I caught a cold cup of coffee as I watched the noisy chat room.

This guy... sings songs. You have manners.

I caught a chilled cup of coffee as I gazed at the noisy chat room.

This guy... sings songs. You have manners.

The conversation room became noisy about the science room where the songs were leaked because of the lack of awareness of spoilers.

At that time, "I stopped singing for a long time" said again.

- I have a schedule tomorrow morning, so I have to go, but if you have Valentine's Day, please play with your own strength. It's not a massive twist, like the end of "the street without me," but there's a real twist. - Aah! I'm even more curious to hear you say that. - But the singer ended up leaving the chat room.

While users who were left in the chat room after the protagonist disappeared made a number of speculations about the science room, most of the opinions were said to have very scary ghosts hidden away.

Then one user's famous detective Konan deduction began.

- By the way, the science lab door was locked before Valentine's Day came along in the game.

- You didn't?

Oh, yeah? I don't know if I've been to the science lab before, but... If you try to get into the science lab before Valentine's Day, you can't get into a fire a few days ago. -

- Fire accident?

- And then, during the promotional video, "I like you. So die with me... 'Isn't there an line like this? -

What's wrong with you people? You want to hear the end of this without clearing the game? '

I hurriedly knocked the keyboard as the conversation flowed in a strange direction.

- Look, I know some of you haven't finished yet, but I think the story is too close to the end. I don't want to know the ending and play. - MR. K cut me off appropriately. Let's all just have fun. If you want to talk about endings, sell them separately. - The community chat room became loud and disagreeable to my opinion, but today's conversation ended as users who did not want to know the content left the chat room.

"Phew... I managed to prevent any loose ends. Well, in a few more days, you'll find out."

I swallowed a few leftover coffees and left the chat room.

In fact, you might have noticed by now, but the main character of Valentine's Day is already dead.

He just doesn't even realize he's dead because he wanted to deliver a letter to his favorite child...

&

The next day.

I took the employees out of the headquarters for lunch, and they were happy to see me in front of the company.

It was always Jun Fei, my friend who wore a big camera on his shoulder with his hat pressed on.

"Oops, I almost didn't meet you if I was a little late. "

On Jun Fei's sudden visit, I told Hayashi to take the employees to dinner first and then took a seat separately.

"Let's make a phone call. What's going on? "

"Come on, man. What would a gaming magazine reporter want with a gaming company? "

"Are you covering?"

"Why don't you beat the mysticism out of him, and let's just cut the crap. It's five months to launch, but isn't it time to get out in the open? "

He's a ghost after all. I opened my mouth and laughed at Jun Fei's sensible tone.

"So you came here because you wanted to win a special deal? "

"Why? Is it out yet? "

"No, it's out. "

Then Jun Fei flicked his finger and smiled.

"Look. I knew it. "

"I can show you, but don't mention it yet. There's something left to fix. "

"Okay, I'm leaving a game magazine reporter, and I'm very curious about this Raon guy as a gamer. "

Jun Fei almost poured his meal and urged me to eat.

"I'm counting on you to eat. Hurry up and eat! "

"Shut up!! I'll pretend because of you!! "

Eventually, I was dragged out to Jun Fei with about half my food left, and I had to return to the company without burning down the appetizer.

"Hey, boss, you're here already? "

"Sayuri, don't you eat? "

"I ate with the staff in the break room because I'm a lunch box parade. "

Then Jun Fei pierced my side and whispered in my ear.

'Who is that perfect figure? He's totally my type. '

"Do you really think that perfect person is single? '

' .... '

Jun Fei became dull.

Anyway, his eyes are terribly tall. I always run into the Demon King with a club, and I still don't have a girlfriend...

Sayuri tilted his head, smiling awkwardly when two men whispered in his ear.

"It's nothing. He asked if he had a boyfriend."

"Hey!! Dude!!"

"Oh, I'm sorry. I'm seeing someone. "

"Oh, yes. Of course you do. Excuse me. "

Jun Fei rushed me with a blush of shame.

A moment later, Jun Fei, who had entered the second development room, shouted at me.

"Dude, what am I supposed to do if you talk to me like that? "

"Why do you ask me that? "

Then Jun Fei didn't say anything. I took out Raon's prototype model from the drawer to Junpei.

"Ugh? No way!? "

"Yes, this is Raon's early model. "

"Oh, my God, is it so small? "

Hmm? Small? It's not that small, but what I have in my hand is a little bit bigger than an adult's palm.

The basic design was similar to the GSP, Sensoni's portable device from the future.

Although the screen was much smaller...

Jun Fei took Laon from me, held him in both hands and opened his mouth with a trembling voice.

"It's very handy. I can feel it in my palms."

"Curved the bottom. Apparently, I was a little concerned about my grip armor. Maybe drop it. You might want to wear a strap on the end of that. "

"Aha! I see. I was like," Why's the strap on the game? "

Jun Fei tucked the outer wrist strap into her wrist and grabbed Raon again.

Jun Fei, who pressed the button on the screen with nothing, looked at the smooth, flushed black body and spit out his admiration.

"It's a very sophisticated design for an early model. A portable gamble boy from Mintendo looks like a child's toy... And six buttons just like a superfamily... Is this really a portable game console? "

"Perfect timing. You know how to spa, right? "

"Of course. "

In Jun Fei's answer, I took another Raon out of the drawer.

"No way? Spa 2 is already out!? "

"No, it's still a test, you can only pick three characters. "

"Where are the three of you?! I'm actually most curious about this. I don't know how Street Fires 2 is going to work on a mobile device."

What's going on? Let's go back the same way. '

I swallowed a smile and connected Junpei's device to the data cable.

And then after a while. On a sunny day, the camera angles slowly came down against the huge building and saw two men posing for a fight in the street.

A yellow-haired man jerks his shoulders and knocks the opponent down with a powerful straight line, immediately recalling the words STREET FIRE II in a tiny screen.

"Th-that's the same... foot? "

When the VS mode opened due to a data connection, I put my cursor and pressed the Start button.

Barabbas, Barabbas!!

The stereo speakers on either side of the device produced a refreshing sound that passed through the screen, followed by a screen that selected players.

Once there were 8 characters, the characters that could not be selected in the beta version were marked in black and white.

The characters we could currently choose were Ryu, Kyle, and Zhonggi. The reason I chose these three characters was because the three special command inputs were different.

Most basic command manipulation was required in cases such as the Tropical branch and the Seungryong branch, and in cases such as Kyle, the Gather Back and Pull Levers Forward command was mainly used.

Lastly, professional wrestler characters like Zhongiev use a unique command that spins a lever or presses three fist buttons at the same time. Finally, these three were captured as beta test characters.

Jun Fei chose Ryu at the beginning.

In this case, I can't choose Ryu. At the beginning of Spa 2, the same character is not selectable...

Since my main character was Kyle, I chose Kyle with a slight smile on Junpei's face.

When the character selection is complete, the stage of the Air Force Base is turned upside down and a giant fighter plane is erected.

"Khh... Kyle Stage. This is exactly like the arcade. Now I'm moved beyond wonder."

-ROUND 1 FIGHT-

At the beginning, Jun Fei tried to fly a class of kicks.

I turned the rudder back lightly to stop him from attacking. I walked down the bridge aiming for an opening.

Quickly push the directional key down the diagonal line and use the thumb salt kick to sweep the directional key up, preventing a lower attack. Then Ryu, who was about to blow up the wave, hit the counter and fell out the back.

"What? I'm in the middle of something. "

Jun Fei quickly retreated his character and tried to suppress the wave.

The current winds are intimately tricky because they fly at different speeds when fired with weak hands and river hands. I needed as careful an approach as possible because a good jump could result in a hook in a single strike of the Seungryong Pass.

The relatively easy-to-command type of maze was quietly focused on defense, as the gathering character Kyle had no choice but to lose the maelstrom battle if he fired consecutively.

"You're more skilled than I thought. Then why didn't you use a cross and a circular button instead of a key? "

"The crucifix is patented and cannot be used by other console companies. "

"Oh, right."

I leapt over the rising winds and tried to approach Ryu. Then, a kind of dragon kingdom that was timing like a ghost arrived.

"This guy..."

As soon as I stood up with this evil rub, I blocked the coming tempest.

At that time, Ryu's ascendancy boasted real poop power, causing considerable damage.

I tried to approach him again, which almost cost me time.

As soon as he stepped back to measure the time when he blew up the Seung Dragon again...

Strange things happened.

Suddenly, the stream that was still standing fell out the back.

"What's wrong with you all of a sudden!? "

As expected, the bug is still implanted.

I smiled inside and cast "Shadow Throw" again on the lying one. Then Ryu, who was lying down, went out the back again.

"What's the matter with you? "

"Kyle Bug. It's called Shadow Throw. We could use it in the game center. "

"Really? How do you do that? "

Kyle's Shadow Throw is one of the worst bugs you can throw wherever your opponent is. It was very easy to use, but if you just stand there and press the River Kick, you will get a skill called Reverse Spin Kick, which is actually a bit long motion...

As this reverse spin kick enters, the character pulls the lever backwards, sneezes forward and backwards, 10 frames out, and presses the steel punch, causing Kyle to enter the throwing motion alone.

When I was a kid, I used to watch this technique in the arcade, and I'd turn it off, and I'd shoot it with a real chair.

"Hey!! Don't bug out!! "

Jun Fei, who has already taken significant damage, is no longer able to win just by restraint. You start to get close.

And as soon as he got here, Kyle poses oddly.

Kyle stops abruptly during a reverse spin kick. He doesn't make it through Ryu's attack.

"What is this? "

"Hak Bridge. You've never seen it before?"

"What is this? "

"Hak Bridge. Don't you know?"

"I don't know!! Dude!!"

In the end, Jun Fei was defeated by my playing with bugs.

Just in case I've stumbled through some old memories, but they're the same. I'll talk to Capco later and ask him to fix it.

At that time, the door of the development room opened and the staff who had gone out to eat returned.

There are now 12 of them, including Morita and Hayashi, that are only part of the second development team. Now you're good enough to play football by department.It 'll be fun to hang out in the summer.

Hayashi came back from eating and sat down next to me and asked Jun Fei.

"Oh, Junpyo. Did you come home from dinner with the deputy director? "

"I was so curious about the new game machine that I ate it up. "

Because of that, I'm still full of myself.

"What do you think? It's a little small on the screen, but it's worth it, right? "

"I was surprised. I never thought I'd be doing Spa 2 on a portable gaming device. It's amazing."

Honestly, I agree with Junpei.

I felt like Capco was very concerned about the transplant because of the refusal psychology of Mintendo.

At that time, Jun Fei, who had experienced Spa 2 somewhat, asked me.

"So can you play Final Fight 89 now? "

"Oh, by the way, Final Fight feels a little different than Arcade Fighting."

"Really? How is that different? "

"Give it a try. I was pretty surprised, too. "

I took Laon from Junpei and pressed the eject button that was hanging from the top of the instrument. A black cartridge was pushed up from the inside, as if a 3.5-inch diskette were protruding out.

"Oh, that's neat. But isn't that broken? "

"Once it's not springy and pressing the button pushes up the cartridge, it minimizes the failure rate, but also doesn't know. Some kids are so mean. "

I unplugged the cartridge from Spa 2, pulled Finel Fight 91 out of the drawer, put it back in, and returned it to Junpei.

As a game magazine journalist, Jun Fei, who operated Raon on his own, focused on the screen with excited eyes. And after a while.

"Cough... Cute ears!! "

Guy, Cody, and Jun Fei showed resilience in the flashy eyes appearing on the screen.

Normally, Jun Fei chose Cody without hesitation because the true character of this period was relatively easy to play with.

Then the first stage was staged to suit the SD character.

A yellow-haired boss who ran away with a Hiroin in front of his eyes like a pill raising a player was one of the most difficult bosses to clear without the skill of Wari Garri at the time. After a hit, this was one of the skills that anyone knew when an enemy turned the lever against a stiffness and then flipped the jab again.

"The base is similar to Final Fight, but you've created a whole new character and background. I feel like I've made up my mind. "

"I was originally going to transplant the arcade plates, but they're smaller than they used to be. He must have switched the graphics from Capco to Laon himself. Thanks to you, simultaneous ticketing will be underwater by the fall. "

"Is it a ticketing act? It's like rebuilding a game, but autumn comes out fast. So Raon's launch is set to Final Frontier 4 and Spa 2? "

"For now. "

"So far, Iran has been very disturbing. "

"I can't believe what I'm saying right now. "

"I got a lot of behind-the-scenes. And then you said," Actually, the Pentagon software is mine. '

I'm afraid to say. "

" .... "

Why don't we leave this guy's magazine reporter and go lay his mattress?

The SD Final Fight played by Junpei was originally supposed to come out in 1993 with the name 'Mighty Final Fight'.

Of course, Raon was a much higher tech than the family, so the graphics were different from the ones I played, but the game was quite similar.

At the end of the family, I saw this piece on a portable gaming device that I had created. I had to realize the history of the game had been somewhat inaccurate.

"Wow, this is for real! It's basically Final Fight, but it feels completely different.

I think it would react well to users once it's launched. "

"Right? I think so, too. "

Then Hayashi, who was looking at Jun Fei, opened her mouth.

"I felt a lot during the SD Final Fight this time at Capco. How could you change the entire frame of the game just for Raon? You call this a transcendental transplant? "

In the '90s, Capco was famous for being a highly conceptual gaming company among third parties.

At this time, of course, I used to tear down a series of spas, "Street Fires 2 Dash," a playable character featuring only four kings as NPCs. There was a 'Super Street Fire 2' featuring four new characters, such as Hawk and Cami, and a 'Super Street Fire2 Turbo' featuring a more speedy move with the last best enemy, 'Gouki'.

Four derivatives came out of one game, but I used to run to the arcade after school when I was excited that I could use a new character rather than being detailed.

"Since the Third Party is like this. We can't just stand by and watch the dragon emblem we're making. "

"Of course, I have the pride of a first party. "

My team, who is currently working on a dragon emblem remake, has been screaming for a fight to see if my words inspire me. (In fact, even though the Dragon Emblem has already surpassed the graphics of the masterpiece...) Maurita and Hayashi, who are in charge of character design for the second development team, opened their mouths.

"Sir, I need to talk to you for a minute. "

"Hmm?"

"Can you come over here for a second? "

I had already left Jun Fei distracted while playing SD Final Fight and moved on to Morita's work.

"Huh? This... is Ryu Hwa-young, right? "

"What!? Ryu Hwa-young!!"

The Psychic Battle Cultist Junpei flashed two eyes at my words.

"Huh? Ryu Hwa-young and I look a little different. "

"Jun Pyo is right. I changed the atmosphere a little differently by using Ryu Hwa Young as a concept. In fact, I've been working a little bit on this for the past few days. "

"After a few days at work, you were left alone, and you drew this? "

"I didn't just draw it, actually. "

"Huh?"

Maurita hesitates for a moment and floats the character who did the dotting on the monitor.

Then, the elegant characters who were almost at the level of celebrity were performing various movements. But these motion things-- no way?

At that moment, Jun Fei who was next to me said what I wanted to say instead.

"Phew. Phew... Cool. Could it be a battle game? "

"For now, it's a duel. I've been doing Spa 2 recently, and it's a shame there's only one female character. So..."

"Is this a fight game where only female characters show up? "

Morita nods quietly, I say.

A woman who resembled Ryu Hwa-young on the workbench was definitely wearing a rider's costume with a firm thigh on the leather jacket instead of the armor part.

"Of course, copyright doesn't allow me to create any more psychic battles, but it reminds me of this from time to time. "

"Explain the concept of the game. "

"That's all I've been thinking about, and I just want to focus on the war.

I wanted to focus a little bit more on fighting, if I had one more chance to create a psychic battle after the play Takashi showed me at the Psychic Battle. "

"That's not bad. With camera angles, we can have more intense battles."

"Camera angle? "

"For example, when characters are fighting side by side, they are enlarged so that they can focus on the battle. And as the characters get further apart from each other, as they get smaller, their roots become a shooter that avoids shell casings. Maybe we can use ideas that we haven't been able to leverage against the limitations of family performance. "

"Sir, I think that's going to be okay. "

In my words, Morita nods, shimmering. Then Hayashi came near us one day and opened her mouth with a worried voice.

"Sir, I think we have a problem with this. The current Psychic Battle is entirely owned by Minuteman. I think it's going to be a real mess if I use characters carelessly... I don't want to get caught up in mintendo and the atmosphere..."

"Of course it is. But there is a way, unless the characters are all the same. "

"Yes? What are you going to do? "

"Don't worry. I have an idea. What matters is you guys. I'm asking if we can work with our current team of dragon emblems. "

"I want to. Sir."

Maurita replied, frightened to the end of my words. Apparently, the obsession with the Psychic Battle that I left in Mintendo is now stimulating Morita.

Hayashi sighs, scratching her back head in response.

"He's burning up like that. Can you pretend I didn't notice? Dragon emblems are almost at the end of the line anyway, so let's go a little harder. What do you guys think? "

Hayashi asked the doctors on the second team, and they all nodded and said a few words.

"Yay! I used to have fun with psychic battles, but is the next one a follow-up? "

"I agree with the team leaders. "

"New developments are much more fun than bug tests!"

Hayashi said to me with a satisfied look on the staff's answers.

"I heard."

"Fine. I'll pay you well for the overtime and the merit pay. "

"Wow!! You're the deputy director!"

Of course you have to pay for what you've been through. It's Pentagon Soft's policy to keep this part of the staff clear.

"Hey, is game development supposed to be this easy? "

"It's good to let people make the games they want to make. They're not all incompetent. "

"But still..."

"Jun Fei, don't let me tell you what you saw today. I'll talk to you later at the appropriate time. "

"Got it. I'll keep my mouth shut. Instead, I'm just going to bring up a little bit about Raon. Spa 2 focus."

"As long as it's not the SD Final Fight part, you're on your own. "

"I knew I had a good friend! He's right next to me, so the knighthood just pops out!"

I shook my head with a bloody smile at Jun Fei's words.

&

And then a little bit more time later, August 14, 1991.

The launch of the world's first 16-bit portable gaming machine, Raon, is one day away.

< Short: Psychic Force in Uchimura. >

Ding-dong!

The bell rings.

"Food delivery. "

12: 15.

Today is also the right time. Does that mean the store is nearby?

When I opened the door to the man dressed as a white waitress, he took out a bowl of bronze and a barbarian (Gundumplings) from a wooden delivery case with a skilled hand and returned.

You don't have to do the math.

I'm sure you've already paid for the entire month at Pentagon Soft.

I quickly put the hot bronze bowl down on the dining table and peeled off the wrap on the bowl.

"I think Wodong here is the best. "

Before eating the dongle, the crispy fried hermit paste was cut, and the juice filled with oil burst out.

"Heave-ho! Heave-ho! Hot!"

I think dumplings are a perfect food that is comparable to eggs.

How do you think you put meat in thin blood?

Dumplings are just steamed and delicious in boiled water, but I think the best of them is this barbarian (Gundumplings).

Chewing hot meat juice with crispy texture together with meat reminds me of a time when I only had a cup in a small single-sized apartment.

I turned my head for a moment and looked into my room, and the living room was filled with sunlight that was unmatched.

Spring is passing and early summer is coming out, but my room is just as crisp as the late autumn air conditioning.

Kang Jun-hyuk from Pentagon Soft... Should I be lucky to meet Yuki at a street fair without me?

Anyway, I'm living in a way that I can't compare to before.

When the time comes, food delivers accurately and a comfortable and spacious workspace.

The rent here is also being paid by Pentagon Soft by half.

The officetel structure, which is divided into one room, a living room and a Kitchen, in the form of a 1LDK, was not a paradise for single people.

Every week when new work arrives as a parcel, I tear it apart and work diligently.

After all my work, I put a phone in the headquarters, and half of my professional collection came and packed my figures well into the box, and the allowance for it was piled up in the middle of every month.

Kang Jun-hyuk created a very new distribution method for figure-making, which was a way to promote premium figures to readers for a certain period of time, then pre-pay in full and get a booking ticket.

As soon as I receive a win from a customer, a professional figurehead sends me something that is not colored, and I edit it little by little every time to complete a piece. Approximately 7-10 days for one product to be completed.

But this is a big pile of bookings, and I'm still working on it.

The figure work I'm focusing on right now is the 'streets I'm not in' heroes. He has been in Minten and Legal Workshops since last fall, but there have been no legal sanctions to create premium figures as intellectual ownership is still on our side of the Pentagon.

The premium figures are booked at the Pentagon Character Shop, right next to the Tamago Shop, and there are only 20 of each type of figures, and they are said to be very competitive among collectors.

Prices range from 60,000 yen to 150,000 yen per person, depending on the quality of the figure. How much will the price go up once the production is finished?

Even the basic sculpture, which has not been painted because it is definitely small production, is excellent enough to have no place to work.

I emptied all the bronze deliveries to the soup. I ran into the workshop, putting the last one of the other teachers in my mouth.

Usually used in the bedroom, it was the perfect place to paint the figures because the sunlight did not come in. The direct sunlight in the sun is something to avoid to induce the discoloration of the figure.

"Phew... Now that you've eaten, let's get to work." "

The deputy said he would set up a separate workshop within the company if he wanted to, but he happily agreed that I would rather paint here, which was awkward for the company people.

It didn't matter if it was home or where the staff could work most comfortably.

"This is paradise compared to last summer."

Moreover, even though I screamed, there was no need to look next door because the soundproofing was perfect.

Sitting at the workbench, Miyuki's 12-inch figure, which he recently started painting, is organized by parts, and the doorbell rings outside.

Ding-dong!

"Who is it? Is the courier already here for the bowl?" I haven't even done the dishes yet. '

It's easy to deliver, but sometimes it's a bit annoying because it was polite to wash and deliver the bowl. But he couldn't have come looking so fast.

As I tilted my head to open the door, I noticed a familiar face.

"Miyazaki?"

She holds a black box the size of her body in both hands and smiles at me.

"Hello, Uchimura!"

"Huh? What are you doing here? "

"I have a special request from Director Kang Jun-hyuk, Uchimura. "

"To me?"

"May I come in for a moment? "

"Oh, well..."

I took Miyazaki's black box instead.

At that moment, I felt a flash of strength in my waist on the weight of the box that was not what I expected.

'What, it's so heavy. '

I thought it would be light because I was holding it with no hard color at all, but I put the pretending box on the table in the living room because I, the man, could not squirm.

Miyazaki, who followed me, looked at the bowls on the table and opened his mouth.

"Do you usually order lunch? "

"I told the company that it was possible, so I left a restaurant nearby a month in advance. "

"Huh, a month? Aren't you sick of it?"

"Well, it's more of a hassle to cook, more of a convenience store instant."

"Well, that, too. "

"By the way, what is this black box? "

"Oh, it's a figure. This is a special request from Director Kang Jun-hyuk from Uchimura. "

"Yes? What kind of figure is this heavy? "

"I don't know. I don't know what it says. D, Dio... ah!! Diorama!!... they say? "

"Diorama!? "

"But what's a diorama? Do you know Mr. Uchimura? "

Diorama was a word used in a set of movies rather than figures.

Gojira, commonly referred to as a feature image, or the Earth Defence Force Hureshman (Supernova Flashman), used to decorate the city in small pieces and put on a monster's mask and act on it, but Diorama was a set made of such little miniatures.

I explained to the curious Miyazaki using the knowledge I know, and she nodded at once if she had seen the battle scene of Hureshman as well.

"If this is a diorama, what kind of diorama is it? Is it Valentine's Day, the one who made the diorama in the street without me? '

Valentine's Day used to play a full edition from Pentagon Soft shortly after I moved here, but it was also a big turnaround for the game.

When I left school with the last box of chocolates. The door to the science lab that had been locked in the game was open, so I went inside and found a letter written by Hiroin, the owner of the place who had just left a box of chocolates.

As soon as I saw that I was told to go to a good place with my condolences about the fire incident in the science room, my whole body regretted.

So I was a ghost, too? '

At that moment, I remembered the face of the protagonist looking at the screen.

'There's something ominous about the box, too. But we can't even open it, and there's Miyazaki, so let's be prepared. '

I swallowed the drought and carefully opened a huge box the size of a man's torso. Then, elasticity flowed from Miyazaki's mouth, who was standing on the other side.

"Wow!"

"Wow… Isn't that Valentine's Day?" '

I opened my eyes slightly and looked inside the black box. The elasticity flowed out without me even knowing it.

"Oh, my God, what is all this? "

First, the black box containing the contents of the diorama was painted with asphalt patterns to see if it itself served as the base of the set.

When the box was moved to the floor and removed from the retention mechanisms on the corners, the box was stretched to ten degrees and created an intersection, and the lid portion of the box had a floor frame around the intersection of chapters 4.

"Ugh... What the hell is this? "

I put the lid on one side for a moment and examined the contents first.

A broken motorcycle wreckage and a destroyed car that hasn't been painted yet. And those half-collapsed buildings (so damn heavy...) that remind me of the Post Apocalypse. And eight bags of human body sculptures in them?

This is a lot of work.

"I think there's something in here. "

Miyazaki opens his mouth to the sound of moonlighting coming from inside the tall building in a box.

I took the model from Miyazaki and looked at the bottom.

Then I noticed a lid that could open something outside. Carefully uncovered the lid, it contained feet made of non-woven material.

Probably an illustration representing the complete scene of the diorama.

At the same time, Miyazaki and I stretched out our dried legs.

"Psychic Force? "

I've never heard of it. Are you planning on launching your new piece again at Pentagon Soft?

The illustration on on the footwear showed whether the short haired woman in the rider's outfit on the leather jacket rolled off the broken motorcycle and tore her clothes everywhere.

A handgun held in both hands, facing the ground, twisting in the air, was pointed toward the sky.

Above it, a pervert with a long tongue was jumping out of the car that was about to explode and chasing her.

"Fantastic."

In the footprint, there was a beautiful woman, Ninja, who was digging for a gap or a living room holding the end of a collapsed building besides them.

"This shadow is Morita's handiwork. "

Inside each building was an illustration that looked at one space in various ways, and a total of eight characters were playing a quarrel in the distance.

'Ah, the angle of the feet in the building is different. '

I have a rough idea what Mauritan is after. Paint all the parts in the crate and decorate them like an illustration.

"Oh, right. This is a message from you. "

"A message?"

I opened the envelope that Miyazaki handed me, and there was a letter inside.

- Mr. Uchimura...

I know it's a lot to ask, but do me a favor before Raon launches.

The first arcade action game in the name of Pentagon Soft.

We will be promoting it during the Raon launch, so we look forward to your great work.

'Psychic Force... It's a title that reminds me of a family's Psychic Battle somewhere. Besides, according to the illustration, is this a water battle for abilities? It'll be fun.'
