……

July is fast approaching, and during this period, the biggest ups and downs are the top executives of Sony Computer Entertainment, especially Ken Kutaragi, who is the president. At first, it had a good relationship with Sega, and even once Sony Computer Entertainment set up a joint venture company with Sega to jointly develop games, if it wasn't for Okawa Gong's constant pushback, maybe Sega would have become the second party of Sony Computer Entertainment. Finally waited for the annoying old man Okawa to burp, and before Ken Taragi was happy, suddenly the situation within Sega changed abruptly, and Hideki Sato, who he had high hopes for, was defeated, and the position of president at his fingertips flew away under his nose, and then Tetsu Kayama, who had always disliked Sony Computer Entertainment, came to power, and then Sega Company switched to the arms of Oriental Industrial Group.

This ups and downs, up and down, is like riding a roller coaster, if it weren't for Kutaragi Ken's well-informed and relatively strong psychological endurance, he would have to follow in the footsteps of Okawa Gong. Originally, Ken Kutaragi thought that he had reached the bottom, who would have thought that it would not be long before Nintendo broke the news again, Lao Yamauchi stepped down, Minoru Arakawa took over as president, and what was worse was that Nintendo also invested in the camp of the Oriental Industrial Group, and even claimed that it would give up the NGC game console and specialize in the portable handheld market. This makes Kutara Kiken simply don't know what to say, it was originally a four-nation war, but in a blink of an eye, it became a three-legged stand, and in the blink of an eye, it became a one-on-one, the previous Sony Computer Entertainment can also consider merging vertically and horizontally, and now it can only be in close contact with the Oriental Industrial Group, the only good news for him may be that the overseas sales license of the PlayStation2 game console has finally been approved again, and Sony Computer Entertainment no longer has to guard the small waterhole in Japan to continue to shop.

Tadazaburo Maeda is a veteran player, and he is the kind of hardcore gamer who has reached a double-digit age of more than two digits, he has seen the inexplicable failure of the early red and white machines, and he has also experienced the strange red game graphics of VRBoy, and he has also seen the fierce collision between the DreamBox128 and the PS2.

With the continuous improvement of game hardware, the game screen is becoming more and more gorgeous, and the scale of the game is getting bigger and bigger, from the early K calculation of cartridges to discs, the world of "Final Fantasy" has grown from a small flat map to a huge 3D space, but Maeda Tadazaburo always feels as if he can't find the simple fun of the past, sometimes when he hears the high school students who live nearby, it is Han Jinpeng ("Adventure King: New World Journey") When the blue dragon is powerful or the white tiger of Yuki Jing (one of the characters in "VR Warrior") is more handsome, he will have a feeling of being in a different world, and occasionally he will have strange thoughts such as "Is it because I am old and ......".

"Toot ~ Toot ~ ~ Toot ~ ~ ~ " One day when Tadazaburo turned on the TV, a very familiar synthetic electronic sound floated out of the speakers of the TV, and a child sitting in front of the old-fashioned TV playing games appeared on the screen, the red-and-white host in front of the old-fashioned TV and the galloping tank on the old TV screen reminded him of something deep in his heart, and at that moment, he even felt that his eyes were a little moist.

"Regain your childhood dreams, stay tuned for FCMini ......" Listening to the voiceover on TV, Tadazaburo Maeda made a secret decision in his heart.

On July 7th, the day of the earth, the release date of "FCMiniforDreamBox128" ......

In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the release of "FCMini", and Tadazaburo Maeda stood in the middle of the line, looking at the long crowd in front of him, and sighed softly in his heart. Originally, he thought that there shouldn't be too many people with the same nostalgia complex as himself, so he didn't deliberately go to the queue early, but who knew that the situation was not the same as he expected, and someone came to the door of the game store to line up before dawn, and even brought tents.

"Hell, I should have thought of that!" Maeda Tadazaburo squirmed slowly forward with the group, muttering very unhappily in his heart.

Carrying a big paper bag, Hinatakano carefully squeezed out of the door of the game store, this is a set of "FCMiniforDreamBox128" he just bought, a total of 10 old games from the FC era, each is only 2000 yen, and it is still very cheap in terms of price. Strictly speaking, Hikahara really hadn't played the old games on the red and white machine before,When he first came into contact with game consoles,FC game consoles have long been a frequent customer of second-hand game stores,As a young man in the new era,As a gamer who has been baptized by big scenes of CG,He has never been interested in this old game before。

As a DreamBox128 controller,Hikaharakano, who is not short of money, basically as long as there is a game on the market that launches the DreamBox128 platform, he will buy a set to study and study,On the one hand, you can write some game analysis reports and the like to make a little money,On the other hand, it is out of a player's instinct。 Having studied many DreamBox128 games, Hikatachi ambition also has its own evaluation of platform game developers, such as Capcom, Konami, Square Enix and Shanghai Tianzhiyuan are basically first-class games, and games printed with Asian interactive badges are usually not bad quality, and this time "FCMiniforDreamBox128" has Shanghai Tianzhiyuan, Asian interactive logo, and even Nintendo's participation, which means that The quality of FCMiniforDreamBox128 is definitely guaranteed, so Hinakahara did not hesitate to prepare the banknotes and shot again.

Haneda carefully walked around the dense crowd in front of him, usually less than 5 minutes away, he had already walked for more than 10 minutes, but the destination still seemed to be out of reach. Haneda Wuren's trip is going to a second-hand game store in Akihabara, he found this place from the Tokyo second-hand game network, it is said that a batch of games from the MD era has just arrived, among which there are Sega games that he failed to collect all the games that year, although he has now invested in the arms of the DreamBox128 game console, but the Sega complex in his heart still exists, even if he heard that the Sega company gave up home game hardware, When he changed to a professional game developer, this complex also did not disappear but was only temporarily buried in the bottom of his heart, so when he saw the pictures of old Sega games that he had not collected on the Internet, his mind became active again.

A guy with a large paper bag suddenly appeared not far in front of Haneda Goto, his eyes swept over, and he immediately recognized it as his nasty and arrogant neighbor Hinakaharano, who liked to carry the packaging box of a certain DreamBox128 game in front of his eyes all day long, and not once or twice.

Haneda snorted slightly, turned around and changed the direction of travel, he didn't like to deal with that guy from Hidaka, especially now that he was carrying a big paper bag and obviously bought the game again, if he let that guy from Hidaka see him, he would take out the game box and show it off.

After squeezing forward for another ten meters, the crowd became thinner, and the sign of the second-hand game store finally appeared in front of Haneda's eyes, and he looked back at Hinadaharano, who was struggling in the crowd, pouted his lips disdainfully, and then quickened his pace and walked towards the second-hand game store.

……

“…… It's a crazy rush again, you read that right, these fanatical players came to line up early for a new game, but this is not the company's game masterpiece, but the very old game "FCMiniforDreamBox128", which can even be said to be the super cold rice king, but it seems that these players obviously don't think so......

The above is a report sent back by reporter Yamane from Akihabara!"

Kutaragi Ken looked at the news on the TV screen with a grim face, and he was in a very bad mood right now. As an important period of game sales, Sony Computer Entertainment attaches great importance to it, and has specially prepared more than a dozen games with different styles for this purpose, in order to wrestle with the DreamBox128 game console. However, the current situation is not the same as expected, almost at the same time as "FCMiniforDreamBox128" The three games that were released at the same time encountered a cold wave, and the total did not sell 200,000 units, while the sales of "FCMini" on the first day of release exceeded 400,000 units, and players rushed to buy them all over Japan, Akihabara, Shibuya, Kyoto, Osaka, even with the old FC game console, has shown signs of recovery, as if time has returned to the most glorious era of FC game consoles in a short period of time.

Back when I first heard that Dongfang Industrial Group and Nintendo were going to jointly launch "FCMini", Ken Kutaragi laughed at this move in front of many senior executives of Sony Computer Entertainment, "It seems that they have lost their ability to innovate, and they will turn such an old game out, do they think that players are fools", and now the hot market of "FCMini" has made his words at that time become self-inflicted.

While Ken Kutaragi was still struggling, FCMini continued to grow in popularity, surpassing the goal of 1 million units in just one week, while the popularity of players showed no signs of abating, and there were even many high-priced auctions of FCMini on EBay.

When asked by reporters, Masaji Tanaka, director of Sony Computer Entertainment Broadcasting, accidentally slipped his mouth: "Japanese consumers are so amused that they will rush to buy the outdated "FCMini" and ignore the PS......2, a high-tech product suitable for all ages."

These words did not bring the slightest benefit to Sony Computer Entertainment, but instead angered many players, not only did the sales of PS2 and related games decline, but several more radical gamers even raised a protest sign at the entrance of Sony Computer Entertainment, which read: "We don't need someone to tell us that those games can be played, because we are the ones who play the games!"

Seeing this situation through the one-way transparent car window, Ken Kutaragi's already not very good face became even more ugly......
