35. Wait for the bullets to fly for a while
Today is Sugita Nobi's birthday, and I received such a great birthday present.
Sugida only felt that there was nothing happier than this.
The parents looked at him with joy and exchanged glances with each other, and in addition to being happy, there was also a trace of worry-
Is it good or bad to buy a game console?
Sega's GP is not cheap, 12,500 yen, plus the Pokémon cartridge, it costs almost 20,000 yen.
However, seeing Xiaosheng's happy appearance, it seems that it is worth it.
……
Sugita couldn't wait to open the Sega GP and inserted the Pokémon Flaming Red cartridge into the game console.
With a jingle of bells, the Pokémon start screen appears on the screen.
It's exactly the same as the first scene in the cartoon, where Nidorino and Geng are fighting.
After pressing the button, the game jumps to the start menu.
The kid is so impatient that it's almost impossible for him to watch the whole opening animation.
AT THE TOP OF THE SCREEN IS A LARGE POKEMON LETTERING.
Below is Ash holding a Poké Ball, and next to him is not Pikachu, but a small fire dragon.
In the lower right corner, there are two big characters written "Fire Red".
The game screen has a very strong sense of pixels, after all, Sega's GP handheld is only an 8-bit machine, although it is color, but it is not as good as the red and white machine 10 years ago in terms of performance.
So in order for Pokémon to run on it, the resources had to be compressed and compressed, and it was decided from the beginning to go pixel-style.
However, Qing Zhiyuan himself also thought very clearly, the original Pokémon became popular like this, so there is no need to ask too much on the screen.
Start a new game.
Dr. Oki stands in the middle, holding a book in his hand.
Dr. Oki said, "Hello and welcome to the world of Pokémon. ”
"My name is Oki, and everyone calls me Dr. Oki."
"In this world, Pokémon are everywhere, they are in the clouds, in the earth, in the water, in the fire, in the forest......"
"Some people think of Pokémon as pets, and some people think of Pokémon as their companions."
"My profession is studying them."
"By the way, first of all, what's your name?"
Immediately after that, a naming interface appeared.
It is a katakana figure of 50 tones.
Sugita named himself Xiaosheng according to his own name.
After the selection is completed, another boy appears in the picture.
Dr. Ohki introduced, "This is my grandson, and he will be your important rival, and his name is -"
Continue to jump to the naming screen.
Sugida was stunned for a moment, huh? Did it turn out that the competitor's name was also taken by himself?
In the cartoon, the grandson's name is Shigeru.
Then I'll call him Xiaomao too.
After choosing a name for your competitor, the game begins.
Xiao Sheng appeared in his home with a game console in front of him, which was the appearance of a Sega GP.
He manipulated the character out of the room and down the stairs.
For this RPG type of game, Sugita is already familiar with it, and he must first find various NPCs to talk to, and search every corner of the room.
Either you can get gold, or you can get certain items.
After searching for a long time, Sugita Sheng got a bottle of recovery medicine, and then learned the news from the NPC's mother-
Today's Xiaosheng is 10 years old and can become a new Pokémon trainer, Dr. Oki is looking for him, and you can get a Pokémon by going to Dr. Oki.
Oh yes!
Sugida became excited.
"Pikachu, it must be Pikachu waiting for me!"
After some exploration, I went to Dr. Ohki's research institute and found that Dr. Ohki was not there.
After walking for a while, he realized that he had to go into the grass above to trigger Dr. Oki's plot.
So back at the institute, Sugita saw three Poke Balls on the table.
Dr. Oki explained that there was a baby fire dragon, a wonderful frog seed, and a Jenny turtle, one of which he could choose as his starting pet.
"Huh?"
Sugita was stupid.
Isn't there a Pikachu?!
Why is there no Pikachu?
Where's my Pikachu?
After thinking about it carefully, Sugita finally chose the little fire dragon.
Mainly because this game is "Pokémon Fire Red" cover is also Charizard, so it's not wrong to choose a small fire dragon.
He also gave the little fire dragon a beautiful name called [Pikachu]
After choosing a Pokémon, he was about to leave, but he was entangled by the doctor's grandson, that is, Xiao Mao, and said that he was going to have a showdown.
"Who's afraid of whom?" Sugida thought to himself.
This duel is actually a beginner's tutorial for Pokémon.
After successfully defeating the opponent's Wonderful Frog Seed, the level of the little fire dragon suddenly rose to level 6.
I feel great.
Sugita has officially embarked on his journey as a trainer.
At this moment, he is like Ash in the cartoon, and the whole person is so excited.
Setting off with the little fire dragon, Sugita quickly became like the most powerful training master in the world.
As soon as he left Zhenxin Town and entered the grass, he encountered a level 5 Bobo.
"It's up to you, Pikachu!"
Although the name is pronounced as Pikachu, thrown out is a small fire dragon with a flame burning on its tail.
After a fight, Bobo was successfully defeated, and the level of the little fire dragon was greatly improved.
……
The plot of Pokémon Fire Red is actually quite simple, and it can be summed up in a few sentences-
After obtaining the original Pokémon, the protagonist begins his own Pokémon training journey from Shinshin Town in the Kanto region with the goal of becoming the strongest Pokémon trainer.
During the adventure, in addition to completing missions that challenge all the gyms, the protagonist will also meet a group of guys who use Pokémon to do bad things, and they call themselves Team Rocket.
After thwarting the conspiracy of Team Rocket's boss Sakaki, in the Quartz Plateau, the protagonist completes the challenge with the Four Heavenly Kings and Aolu and becomes the champion.
It can even be said that this game has almost no plot to speak of, meet a trainer, fight well, encounter wild Pokémon, catch it if you can.
After grabbing it, look at the attributes, throw away some garbage, and then leave the good attributes.
However, the game itself is a lot of fun.
It's one of the early games with open-world elements.
Pokémon Red & Green is set in the Kanto region, which is modeled after the Kanto region of Japan.
Whether it's mountains or rivers, forests or seas, Pokémon live in all corners of the place, and humans live with Pokémon, either pampering them or pampering them against each other.
Wild Pokémon can be found in various places such as grass, water, caves, sand, swamps, the bottom of the sea, and the air.
Different Pokémon have their own behavioral habits, personalities and specific locations that make people feel that this is a real Pokémon world, and these colorful Pokémon form a very good and complete ecological network, making the world as gorgeous as a rainbow.
Many humans in the Pokémon world will travel with Pokémon and participate in gorgeous contests to win ribbon medals.
There are also people who collect badges and challenge the Pokémon Alliance, such people are called Pokémon trainers, and they will make Pokémon play against other trainers or wild Pokémon, and by using the cooperation between Pokémon with different attributes, and fully consider the characteristics, match moves and carry props, cultivate abilities, and give the ability value to think and cultivate, to create a powerful Pokémon team.
Players can obtain new Pokémon by subduing Pokémon, cultivating new Pokémon, NPC gifts (Pokémon or Pokémon's eggs), in-game connection exchanges, event gifts, and connection exchanges with other players.
In the process, Sugita became fascinated.
I can't stop playing at all.
"Xiaosheng, go to sleep." My mother said angrily, "It's already 10 o'clock." ”
This is the second time that my mother has urged.
If he doesn't obey again, Sugita will face his first beating on his birthday.
"Okay." 、
He closed the game rather helplessly.
"See you tomorrow, then, little fire dragon." Sugida touched the GP screen.
……
When I went to school on Monday and talked about getting a Pokémon game, Sugita suddenly became a big star among my friends.
"Ah~! I envy you so much, I can get a Pokémon, and I want to get such a birthday gift on my birthday. ”
"Your dad is so good to you."
"Can you lend me a little bit then, Sugida-kun."
"No problem." Sugida touched his nose and laughed happily.
However, among elementary school students, Sugita is not the only one who has a Pokémon game, and there are several children in the next class who have also bought game consoles at home.
Neon game consoles are quite commonplace, mainly because they don't think that playing games will particularly affect children's learning.
Sometimes adults have a need for play, let alone children who are naturally playful.
So after buying a handheld this time, Pokémon is popular among elementary school students, junior high school students, and high school students...... It has even become popular among college students.
"You know what? It turns out that after clearing a Pokémon, although the game can be repeated, it can inherit the original Pokémon and the corresponding Pokédex. ”
"Huh? Are you sure? Sugita learned the news from his classmates and expressed his surprise.
"Really, Sugita-kun."
"This game is too good for players, isn't it?"
"Well, this is called the second week, so we can continue to collect Pokémon without worry."
In the second week of many games, the plot has changed, but it's not inherited from equipment props or something.
But P Society's games have always had a tradition of inheritance, and the newly made new Onmyoji is like this, and the second week can directly inherit the equipment of the first week.
Because in Qing Zhiyuan's view, if there are no special needs and the battle strategy is rich enough, the main purpose of the second week is to experience the branch plot, then there is no need to continue to waste players' time in battle.
Of course, this is selective, and you can also choose not to inherit.
Give players the initiative to do so.
"Sugida-kun, after you clear the customs, how about we take the Pokémon you cultivated, and let's fight together?"
"Huh? Can you still fight? Sugita said he didn't know anything about it.
A few friends leaned back and laughed, "Then it's decided." When the time comes, we can exchange the good Pokémon we caught. ”
"Huh? Can I still exchange Pokémon? Sugita expressed his surprise.
But after thinking about it, my own divine pets have feelings, and I guess I can't bear to exchange them with others.
……
After the launch of the Pokémon game, players discussed more and more as the anime continued to advance.
"Pokémon is fun, just like watching cartoons, I've long wanted to experience being a Pokémon trainer. I didn't expect Pokeni's game to come out so quickly. ”
"yes, I didn't think it would be so much fun to catch pets, it felt like going back to elementary school, when we went to the mountains after school in the afternoon to catch unicorns, and we went to the river to catch frogs or something......
Not to mention how interesting it is. ”
"Mmmm, I was a small animal breeder in my class when I was in elementary school, and playing Pokémon was like a child, and I still remember the name of my first pet."
"I miss my pet cat too, playing Pokémon really feels like having a pet, super happy.
The first thing I do when I wake up every morning is to howl dryly.
At this time, it doesn't matter where my cat is, it will meow, and then crawl on the bed to rub my face. ”
"It's really not easy to make a handheld game like this, so many Pokémon have their own characteristics and different skills."
"Ah...... In reality, it would be nice to have a creature like Pikachu. ”
"Hahaha, if there really is Pikachu, I'm afraid the electricity won't kill you."
……
Although it has achieved a good reputation, the sales results of "Pokémon" red and green do not seem to be very good.
"Oh no, no, no, president."
Early in the morning of September 1st, Akane Ayase said with a sad face.
"What are you doing?" Qing Zhiyuan frowned.
"Pokémon sales ......" Akane Ayase glanced at the president's face, and there was a pang of torment in her heart.
After a moment's hesitation, he said, "Pokémon has passed for a week, and even 20,000 copies have not been sold until now, so don't be too sad, president." ”
Yes, Pokémon landed on Sega GP, and so far, more than 17,000 copies have been sold.
Compared to the previous works of P Society, this is a proper hit on the street.
"Pokémon has spent so much effort and so much money, and now it's going to be lost."
But Qing Zhiyuan didn't care.
"What are you afraid of, let the bullets fly for a while!"
"Huh?" Akane Ayase was a little dazed, and looked at her president with a look of incredulity.
The president is too calm, right?
Is this because you are not afraid of burning when you have money?
Or is the president a little abnormally stimulated by this garbage achievement?
