Is this good?

Not good. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

This is Takahashi's answer.

SaidBen, Tokyo, Akihabara, five o'clock in the afternoon, the remnant sun is like blood.

Takahashi, who was doing his fourth job today, was sweating profusely carrying a suitcase. He squinted his eyes and raised his head slightly, his gaze passed through the skirt of the high school girl in the sailor suit and landed on the crowd in front of him.

It's 1985, and arcade machines are a form of entertainment called video games, which is in full swing.

But all this has nothing to do with Takahashi.

Not to mention making money with video games, even playing them is pure luxury.

He was poor, very poor. It's like the days when he traveled through the past north drift. However, unlike the current "East Drift", the experience of North Drift has long been drowned in memory with the passage of time.

"Get out of the way!" pushed Takahashi back to reality. The sound of talking, cheering, car horns, all kinds of noises permeate the ears.

Takahashi looked at the elementary and junior high school students gathered in front of the arcade, and then glanced at the office workers next to the arcade machine, wearing suits and holding small notebooks to record something. Finally, I used my peripheral vision to make sure that my uncle was not around.

His hand holding the box left the box, reached into his trouser pocket, and rubbed it over and over again, the only one of his own, a hundred dollars.

This is a chance to change your fate!

As long as you use technology to conquer the onlookers, get their cheers, and attract the attention of the game company's recorders, you may be able to change your fate.

What porters, what slums, get out of the way!

Make money, make a lot of money!

If you have money, is it good?

Good!

As long as there is money, the earth is heaven everywhere.

Takahashi put the box on his shoulder back into the van and spread his arms and sped towards the crowd not far away.

………………

", loser!" said the twenty-something, shirtless, tattooed, and puffy winner of the game in front of the arcade, with his head held high, nostrils facing the operator of another machine, who was sitting next to him.

The loser shrugged his shoulders, bowed his head, and walked away without saying a word.

"Walk in front of me, you deserve it too?" the tattooed victor stretched out his legs, blocking the way in front of him.

The loser silently turns.

The victor ostentatiously twisted his ankle and kicked the loser in the ass, kicking him staggering.

"Who else?" said the ruffled victor, standing in an arcade chair and looking down at the crowd of onlookers.

"Shimada! Shimada!" Although the voices of elementary and middle school students were immature, they pulled their throats and blushed as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, setting off wave after wave of sound.

"Who, yes?" asked Shimada, word for word.

"I! I'm going to challenge you!" Takahashi paused, gasping slightly, and his voice was loud, and one person overwhelmed the sound of dozens of people.

"Oh, you, come on, don't cry if you lose. Shimada in the chair squatted down and teased Takahashi in a strange voice.

"No, I'm willing to lose, I won't cry if I lose, but don't cry if you lose. Takahashi replied with a sunny smile, revealing a row of small white teeth, harmlessly.

"Yes, yes. Your mouth is very hard, I see how long you can be hard. Hurry up and don't delay me. Shimada scolded with a sharp voice.

Takahashi shook his head when he saw him, didn't answer again, sat directly in front of the arcade, and put the 100 yuan stained with his sweat into the arcade with a sense of ceremony.

Shimada, who was squatting in an arcade chair, glanced at Takahashi with disdain, and threw a coin into the machine.

Game on!

The English title of Star Force, Star-Force, flashes along with a short eight-bit style opening music.

Takahashi's left hand is palmed upwards, and his middle and forefinger are holding the joystick, as if he were holding a wine glass. The thumb of the right hand rests on the round key, and it keeps tapping.

The small plane on the arcade screen flickered and moved with the movement of his hand, constantly shooting bullets and destroying enemy planes.

It stands to reason that this game is not very difficult, but Takahashi is extremely serious, especially when the fortress is blown up and a large "B" and a small "B" are scattered, his eyes are almost glowing.

Assume that these uppercase and lowercase Bs are "BOOM!" bombs?

Immature!

This thing is used for calculating points, and it has to be exploded. And the calculation method is not a positive plus point, but an inverted algorithm. At the end of each level, blow up all the letters B to count 10,000 points, miss one and deduct half, and then decrease 1,000 deductions in turn, as long as you miss five, there will be no points.

Is this crazy?

Young!

The points of the big and small letters B are not counted together, but separately.

The consequences of this are obvious, and the gap between the high and low hands will be widened all at once.

This is also the reason why the gangster boy Shimada has been winning, and he can blow up all the letters B without a bad time.

Takahashi, who was highly concentrated, was not as relaxed as Shimada next to him, and beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.

Compared to Shimada, he has a big disadvantage. This disadvantage comes not from the operation, but from the familiarity of the game.

Early video games lacked variety, and game masters generally had the ability to memorize the flow of the game - the "backboard".

Takahashi hadn't played Star Force before, and Shimada had already played it hundreds of times.

So, when Shimada even had the leisure to raise his hand to stir up the atmosphere, Takahashi was still engrossed in staring at the arcade display.

In this game, he not only has to achieve a high score over Shimada, but also memorize the position where each small plane appears, optimize the entire offensive route, maximize output, and try to miss as few small planes as possible. Because, in the duel of masters, 10 points can determine the winner!

There are more than 20 levels in "Interstellar Force", each level is represented by Greek letters, and if the score of each level reaches a certain standard, a boss will appear, and if you defeat it, you will pass the level.

Shimada's score reached a critical point, and the boss of the first level appeared!

Because Takahashi was not familiar with the game, he missed a few small planes and was a few seconds behind before refreshing the boss.

The boss is not difficult to fight, and Takahashi Shimada and the two are easy to solve.

The first level, "Alpha Alpha", ends.

The second level "Beta Beta" level is cleared.

Level 3 and Level 4......

The last level, "Omega Omega......

The content of each level is similar, and the scenes, enemies, and bosses do not change much.

This is a common feature of early jerking games, which is generally weak in replayability, but even so, it is still highly demanding.

Getting a high score and leaving your name on the scoreboard is the honor of every player.

"Boy, you're not weak if you can follow to the last level! You missed so many small planes, you missed me by 100,000 points, you want to win me? Dream! Hurry up and admit defeat, I'll give you decency. Shimada said very leisurely.

"I don't admit defeat, let's talk about victory or defeat now, it's still early!" Takahashi answered Shimada's provocation for the first time, and after answering, he returned all his energy to the arcade machine.

The reason why Takahashi dared to leave his job and come here to play games was desperate, he really thought he was carried away by blood?

He has a magic weapon to win, and after the last fortress of the final level of "Interstellar Force" is destroyed, a hidden element will appear, the head of Cleopatra VII. Blow up this human head and you will get 1 million points.

This million points is Takahashi's magic weapon to win!

Shimada, who already had a total score of three million, already thought he had won, and he squinted at Takahashi, who was about to challenge Cleopatra, and almost fell off his chair with a smile.

"Are you crazy? even I've never succeeded, just you?" Shimada decided that Takahashi was overwhelmed.

The arcade machine of 1985 has no burst buttons, and the attack speed is completely related to the speed of the hand rub.

Cleopatra's million-point score is precisely because it is difficult, requiring the player to click the attack button at least forty times in three seconds. Otherwise, the machine will be destroyed and people will die, and all the previous efforts will be wasted!

In order to pursue stability, Shimada directly gave up Cleopatra's hidden point reward and cleared the customs directly.

“3480000！”

The arcade machine flashes with the last score, which is sixth on the leaderboard!

The first five scores are also crowned with the English abbreviation of Shimada's name.

His achievements can make him say that he is the ruler of Akihabara's "Interstellar Power", the king of Akihabara's "Interstellar Power"!

Takahashi didn't pay attention to Shimada's strange appearance after clearing the customs.

His elbow rested on the arcade console, and as the force increased, the muscles in his arm were pulled a lot, and the thumb of his right hand shook extremely fast!

The small planes on the screen are pouring fire frantically.

One second.

Two seconds.

Three seconds.

Cleopatra's head exploded! The words "a million" burst out!

Takahashi's points reached 3.9 million points at once!

Takahashi clearance!

“4380000！”

No. 1 on the leaderboard!

Shimada, who was cheering, saw the words flashing at the top of the leaderboard, and his mouth grew in disbelief, "This can't be!"

Takahashi moved his sore fingers, stood up and said to Shimada, who was half a head shorter than him, "I'm sorry, I won." ”

There was an eerie silence.

The elementary and middle school students who were watching, although they did not know Takahashi's name, had already begun to cheer on the leaderboard, the pinyin abbreviation of the name left by Takahashi.

They shouted in English, "GQ!GQ!GQ!"
