Game Market 1983 Chapter 187

Chapter 187

“Tsk!! Kenska!! You okay!? ”
The people who were still waiting to buy with Mayumi's scream, the eyes were all over me.
Fluffy...
Immediately, I was relieved of my legs and sat down on the floor holding the shopping bag handle tightly.
“Are you okay? Are you hurt?" ”
“ · · · · · ·. ”
I heard Mayumi's voice filled with worry, but I couldn't say anything.
The perpetrators who blew up my shopping bag had already made a quick left turn at the next range and disappeared from view...
In my hand, only the handle of an 80,000 dollar shopping bag remained.
“W-what just happened? ”
Did they say they can't perceive reality when they're so shocked?
Mayumi, who was touching my body, sat down next to me, sighing for relief as she stuttered like a lost little child.
“No injuries. You're welcome."
“You're welcome... thank God? ”
Where are you so lucky? I lost 80,000 yen in front of my eyes, but I can't even buy a limited edition of Idol if I want to buy it again!!
It's over. It's all over.
When the Dragon Warrior series was launched, I never thought I'd get blown up like this, even if I heard bad students dragged me into the back alley and took the cartridge.
It was strange and unfair, so I felt like tears were going to pour out soon.
“Kensuke, are you crying? ”
“Noona, someone's crying. ”
I stood up, rubbing my eyes against Mayumi's voice. I felt sorry for the way the users looked at me with a blank look around us.
I hurriedly made my way to the train station, thinking it would be nothing more than a laugh if I were here.
Even if I could buy Complete Raon again with the money I have left in my hand, I still had no money to buy the title of the game.
“Keke, Mr. Kenska. Come with me.”
After pausing in Mayumi's voice, you hear another woman's voice behind your back.
“Hey, customer!! ”
Turning his head, Casher, who had just helped me calculate the Complete Raon, hurriedly ran to me and handed me a piece of paper.
“You left in such a hurry, I forgot to give you this. ”
As I stared at the ticket with the number written, I raised my head and asked her.
“What is this? ”
“This is the ticket to the live stage for the afternoon. ”
“Draw Ticket?”
“Hand-picked by the patrons of Virtue Idol. ”
I was number 231 in her hand.
“LIVE is scheduled for 2 PM, so be sure to attend. ”
“Oh, well...”
The Pentagon clerk handed me a ticket and immediately returned to the shop. Thanks to the long procurement matrix, it was difficult to leave for a while.
One raffle ticket in place of the heavyweight Complete Raon that you just had in your hand.
Honestly, I didn't think this was going to win.
The number 231 means that 230 people have already purchased Raon in front of me, and if I include the people in the current line, I could almost double the draw number.
At this rate, you can't wait until the afternoon live for only one lucky draw number.
Then Mayumi, who was next to me, asked me.
“Kensuke, aren't you going back to see Kanna? ”
“Oh, right. Then I decided to take a look at Kanna...”
I was so distracted that I forgot to promise to see her...
In fact, I felt like going back home and doing nothing, but seeing Mayumi's face made me feel very sad to go back to this.
“Do you want some food? ”
I ran in from even the morning, but I was so hungry that I asked her with a bitter expression.
“Yeah. Let's...”
&
After a while, we moved to a nearby family restaurant and sat across from each other with our shopping bags on the side of the table.
“Are you okay...? ”
The voice of Mayumi looking at me with anxious eyes was just a silent nod.
He seems to think I blew up the Raon I bought because of him.
To be honest, I didn't notice any boiling anger or devastation until just now, but I calmly thought that all of this was a mistake caused by my greed.
I'd rather listen to Mayumi...
Regrets came, but it was too late.
After feeling discouraged even Mayumi, I took a short breath and told her.
“It's okay! I'll get paid next month and buy it again. ”
“I would have expected more...”
She opens her mouth, gazing at the Complete Raon who is next to her, smiling as if she was about to burst into tears.
“I'm fine. You want to take it and play first? ”
It is true that you were just tempted by Mayumi's offer with an honest heart.
But when I thought of Mayumi's sister, who was waiting for her to return from home, I secretly leaked a bloody smile.
“What are you going to say to your brother...”
“No, I'm just saying I can't buy it for a reason...”
“But you said you wanted to try. Virgil Idol...”
Honestly, I didn't think it would come from Mayumi, so I didn't reveal it to the outside, but I felt very good. When I talked about the game until now, I felt like she finally admitted to my hobby.
During the meal, we took out the Complete Raon and looked at the reality.
A luxurious body with a matte plastic finish was designed for use even when standing up.
Unlike Gear Stations and Saturn, the part of the tray with the CD inserted could be pushed aside rather than open the lid.
“Just open this and plug in the CD, right? ”
“It's the same as a CD player: insert the CD into the middle drive shaft, close the tray. And press the power button. ”
Mayumi nodded earnestly in my explanation.
Though my heart was empty, I felt very cute in her appearance, listening to each of my actions and learning how to work the Complete Raon.
Well, her brother would know how to hot-wire a cable. No further explanation is necessary...
“But what's this hole in Kenska? ”
In Mayumi's question, looking at the lower front end of the Complete Raon, there was a unique port just next to where the controller was mounted.
“Huh? I see...”
In the case of gear stations, memory cards could be placed on the controller ports, but Complex Raon did not need to purchase a separate storage device to use the built-in memory.
It was a pretty thick port, so when I opened the manual and looked at the name of the small site, I realized what the port meant.
“This is a portable Raon connecting device. ”
“If it's a portable Raon, are you referring to the game machine Kenska has? ”
Surprisingly, the body of Complete Raon was able to link the existing Raon.
What was interesting was that if you put in the CD and linked Raon on the play screen, you could download mini-games for the game.
This means that if you buy one game, you can play two games for Complete Laon and Portable Laon.
As a simple example, installing the game data of Idol on a portable Laon allowed you to enjoy a simple mini-game that could nurture your own Idol on the outside.
‘The launch of a new console is not an introduction to existing users, but rather, if they have an existing Laon, they are naturally encouraging them to buy a complete Laon..’
Additionally, the TV mode allows you to display the game screen on the portable Laon display, so that you can play the game freely with the portable Laon even at home with only one TV.
‘Wait, this structure has been planning Complex Raon since we designed Portable Raon!? ’
I was amazed by the way the Pentagon interlocks closely.
‘Even if Mintendo-64 is released later, this level of completeness would be quite dangerous. ’
Then, beyond the manual, I heard Mayumi's worried voice.
“There's Kenska. Are you going to see Kanna live later...? ”
“Of course. I was so busy that I couldn't get a straight answer. ”
Then Mayumi smiled brightly, exhaling relief.
I guess I just thought I'd go home because I was upset about you.
“Live in the afternoon. Let's go to the cafe and buy some time. ”
“Yes.”
&
The Pentagon's complete raon took a picket for full power consumption before 12 o'clock.
After the sale opens at 9 o'clock. It was a triumph in just 3 hours.
The long purchasing procession that was camped out in front of the Pentagon Shop was soon dispersed, and Akihabara was returning to his usual state.
People wandered around the street carrying huge shopping bags, but they all seemed to know what was in them, given their similar sizes.
But it's 1: 55 p.m. Aren't people overreacting to the recent months of the fascinating live event of Virtue Idol?
“Mr. Kenska. Are you sure you want to do a live event here in Kanna? ”
Mayumi, sitting across from me, minding her own ticket, asked me.
By the way, the little stage I put in front of the Pentagon Shop is gone?
I pulled out the live ticket I had stuffed in my pocket and looked around.
And the moment I saw the directions to the venue, I was suddenly elastic.
‘Oops. You can't live outdoors in the sun like this. Somehow, the time was running out, and the streets were empty. ’
“Sorry, Mayumi. Virtual Idol's live event wasn't here. ”
“What? Where, then?" ”
“There's another Pentagon shop nearby called the Dragon Emblem Shop, and I think they're performing there. Luckily, it's not far from here. Let's hurry. ”
I ran to the event with the Complete Raon shopping bag in my hand instead of Mayumi.
&
Shortly after arriving at the Dragon Emblem Shop, we showed the staff a live ticket and headed straight for the event hall on the second floor. The passageway to the second floor has been cleared to ensure all users have already entered.
Pow! Pow!
Soundproofing caused a huge scream from the inside, even though there were thick doors installed at the theater or in the theater.
‘Yes. This is how popular Virtual Idol should be...’
Moment after swallowing a dry saliva and opening a tightly closed door. The sound of the enormous shouting of the users coming from inside caused a tremor all over my body.
Ta-da!!
At that moment, you hear Cheryl's provocative voice with a familiar whip.
“I'm going to rock this stage with my song. ”
At that moment, one thought crossed my mind.
It was a conference about the new launch that Raon showed at the Pentagon store when it was launched four years ago.
'Yes… the Pentagon's launch ceremony was not yet finished…'
