Chapter 497: Namco Goes Out of the Mountain

Digimon's finale.

Countless people are reluctant to give up on it.

It's a bizarre world.

That world of unity and friendship.

All the good qualities have bloomed in them.

Some people are worried, and some people are happy.

Game makers such as Nintendo and Sega are only breathing a sigh of relief at this moment.

It's a summer vacation dominated by Digimon!

All of this is gone in front of Digimon!

Don't you see Konami's successive GB games, there is a situation where there is no return?

Although there is a certain reason for the fact that the quality of their own games is not high enough.

But!

Digimon's domination effect is just too strong!

This summer.

It belongs to Digimon!

For all those who dare to challenge, the outcome speaks for itself.

Digimon's finale.

This allows them to finally start a new layout.

The entire video game market is surging.

It can be said that the thing that everyone is most afraid of now is that Age of Wonders suddenly releases another game related to Digimon.

But for the Age of Miracles, fan consumption can't be fished for.

There are already quite a few Digimon merchandise.

From clothes, toys, puzzles, digital machines, and a variety of products launched in collaboration with well-known brands.

You can see the Digimon mark almost everywhere.

Gaming?digital machines are sufficient.

After completing the mission, the digital machine no longer needs too many things to provoke the emotions of fans.

It's just that this year, Nintendo needs to prepare too much.

The opportunity presented itself, but Nintendo still followed the patience and did not release the game.

On behalf of Nintendo, Konami struck again.

It's still a GB game!

Contra's new "OperationC"!

This news took Contra fans who had been silent for a long time by surprise!

Konami is going to go all the way this year!

It's actually a GB game again!

Is there that much charm in black and white games???

GB games were released one after another.

It's just incredible.

What is the charm of this game, as soon as the game was released, fans who love Contra launched a charge.

The whole game screen is black and white except for the GB screen, and the performance in other aspects is almost on par with the FC version.

The game can freely choose the first 4 levels, and only after clearing the 4 levels can you enter the last level.

The story of the game takes place between Super Contra and Soul Player.

In 2635 AD, the Earth Federation learned that a large country was using Xenomorph cells to develop powerful weapons on an isolated island in the South Pacific.

To this end, the Earth Federation Army gave the Contra Squad's Senior Private Bill Razor a very secret order to infiltrate the enemy base on the island and destroy its research facilities and all aliens.

The background of the story is not too complicated.

It follows the previous storyline feeling.

Of course, there are always some things that need to be changed as the game migrates to other platforms.

The main change in the game is the button-related settings.

In the GB version of Contra, players can hold down the B button to achieve continuous firing, which can be said to be one of the biggest pain points for FC players!

Eliminating the hassle of pressing the keys in the FC version is already exciting for players.

The game's bullet speed has also increased, and the number of normal bullets has also been changed from 4 to 5 bullets that appear on the screen at the same time when you press them in the FC version.

And the Shotgun S in the weapon restores the level setting of the arcade version of Super Contra.

A new weapon has also been added, the Tracking Bullet H, which is similar to the S under the first level but has a tracking function.

Therefore, the entire GB version of "OperationC" is mainly based on a refreshing sense of impact.

I have to say that the release of this game at this juncture has indeed been loved by many players.

Especially after this gap in the Digimon dominating the screen.

Another popular game category has arrived.

This instead gave Contra OperationC a chance.

It's just that the response is good, but there is no particularly big breakthrough in sales.

A big reason for this depends on the GB handheld, and the overall sales are really miserable.

Even if there's a good game once in a while.

But for a game to touch the player to buy a handheld, this kind of driving force is still a little lacking.

After all, there is no harm without contrast.

On the other hand, look at the GP handheld next to it.

How many wonderful works?

Not to mention anything else, just Huaxia Cubes and Snakes, I can't get tired of playing!

Not to mention that there are a lot of excellent games inside.

Although Contra is fun, it can't stand other games in general!

And now that Konami has come out to release the game, what's next?

Who knows if the Age of Miracles will make a move?

Wait-and-see is the easiest choice for all players to make.

After all, if you really want to play, you can borrow it.

It's really not good, the Contra game is not a novel game.

In such a situation, if there is a more fun game, it seems to ...... Is it a better choice?

Players' expectations didn't wait long.

Barely two days.

A company that surprised everyone appeared.

Namco!

It is a long-established game production company in Japan.

Nintendo's former second party.

Namco has actually released a new game on behalf of the Age of Wonders!

GP handheld game!

"Magic Tower"!

The appearance of this game is like Namco's shot that everyone did not expect.

Tower of Magic is a strategy fixed-value RPG.

A new genre of games!

This is the first RPG game on a handheld computer!

This deceptively simple game actually requires a lot of brains, and any rash choice can lead to the failure of the game.

Although the magic tower game is not big, it is beautifully made, there are many props, and the difficulty is not low, which is a difficult test of IQ.

Although the interface of the magic tower is very similar to a general dungeon game, it seems that you can pass the level by fighting and killing casually, but in fact, this game has attribute attacks, defense, life, gold, and experience.

These traditional RPG settings are there!

And the formula for calculating the number of damage to monsters is the enemy's life (one's own attack - the enemy's defense)!

And the number of damage is calculated as the number of monster damage (enemy attack - own defense).

The calculations are not complicated.

The premise of the whole game is also very simple.

In order to find someone more powerful than him to save the world, a demon king of the Ancestor Magic Tower used the princess as bait and lured a brave man into the magic tower.

The only test is whether the brave can reach the top of the magic tower!

What the player has to do is to do everything he can, while ensuring that he does not die, open the magic tower on each floor, and want to go to the top floor!

The appearance of this game announces another new round of showdown between Nintendo and the Age of Wonders!

In the end, it was Konami who made the old game Contra that maintained the status of the king.

Or will Namco make a comeback and take the Age of Wonders battleship to power again?

Time will soon give players the answer!
