Game Market 1983

“Do we want to bet on this? Why don't you grant the winner his wish? ”

Huh? This is an unexpected challenge. Well, then, shall I make it up to you as a childhood memory?

We put in 50 yen coin by coin and started the game.

Soon, two dinosaurs bubbling up on both sides of the stage and the game begins.

The game, which had a total of 100 games, was structured to make the level design increasingly difficult, but frankly I was a little bored after more than 50.

But if you grant the wishes of the winner, the story will be different. We started beating the buttons hard to defeat more enemies from each other.

“Huh?"

Yuki's play was cunning. If I put my enemies in a bubble, they'll come running like ghosts, bursting for a second and killing them all, raising their score exclusively with bananas and strawberries off the stage.

“Yuki, you've done this a lot. ”

“I'm the number one score in the neighborhood.”

If coming to Game Center is the first trap, is this the second? Then I can't lose any more!! I changed the way I played and started staging through Yuki's dealt with enemies.

The bubble bobble's dinosaur pressed the jump button relentlessly, as long as the timing was just right inside the frame. At that moment, a shoe item fell over my head with a good timing. Eating this will increase your speed by 1.5x!!

Yuki rushed to eat shoes, but I was faster.

“Oh, what a shame!! ”

“There's no concession in a score bet!”

After catching the shoes so quickly, my speed got faster, blowing up all the enemies Yuki had imprisoned. Wow! I thought I'd forgotten everything, but Boggle Boggles are so much fun!!

When I was a kid, I almost got kicked out of the arcade by the owner when I put 50 won in the arcade and went 100 rounds.

Suddenly, I burst into laughter in my childhood memories.

“Ah!! Candy!! ”

“Mine.”

“Ahhhh!! ”

I had already eaten my shoes, so I left later than Yuki, but I quickly picked up some candy ahead of her. Candy improves foaming rain!!

After eating candy and shoes like that, my blue dinosaur was almost invincible. On stage 20, Yuki and my score were already off the charts.

“Give it up, Yuki!”

“Hmph, I'll never give up. You'll see. I'll beat you!! ”

Is that your nature? Like the person who grabbed the steering wheel, her personality changed 180 degrees. At that time, a pair of shoe items fell on the stage.

“Ah!! Shoes!!"

“Mine.”

“Joon-Hyuk already ate!! ”

If I eat shoes and eat them again, it adds 1000 points! I ran fast and took Yuki's shoes. I hate to see this. You're not mad about the game, are you?

I turned my head and looked at Yuki, and she was also smiling at me.

I don't know what that smile means, but I can feel something fighting. Yuki then strangely manipulates the lever on stage 30 and opens the secret door. Once inside, I was able to get to 50 stages in no time.

“I haven't given up yet. ”

“50 stages would be hard without items. ”

“We'll see. ”

Looking at her focusing on the screen while looking at it, I felt very cute.

Not only do I think that, but there were some gamers who were passing by who were looking at Yuki's work hard to manipulate the lever or even looking behind her.

“Wow! A man makes the game so humiliating. ”

“You're eating all the items by yourself. What the hell is all that? I don't know what yield is. I don't know what yield is.

“If I were to play games with a girl like that, I'd give you an item.”

If you don't eat all the Namesa's items and die, this is a swordmaster battle!!

But... if I win, what do I ask for? Come to think of it, I don't have much to offer, but if you tell me what I want to do, I'll go to the place I've been thinking about.

Hey, hey! What are you thinking of meeting me for the second time today...

The moment I got distracted and missed the flow, something really amazing happened.

“Cross!! ”

The blue cross fell over Yuki's character's 4 compartments when he looked at the screen, surprised by the shout of the man coming from behind.

“Wow, it's true. I've never seen a cross in a bubble bobble before!! ”

Shit!! No!! I quickly ran up the bubble and ran toward the cross. I have to eat that at all costs!!!!

“Cheer up, woman! Jump!! ”

Someone thinks I'm some kind of demon!!

I leaned on the cross with my teeth crossed, but Yuki ate the cross with his bare hands. Then, watching Yuki, the men burst into cheer.

“Wow!! ”

One of the most massive master piece items in bubble bobble, the Cross has a one in 4782 chance of an extremely rare item, which has allowed dinosaurs to burst into flames to only bubble so far.

Fire was a powerful weapon that wiped out enemies in one blow, so it was much more efficient than my play of locking them up and bubbling them up.

In the end, Yuki quickly caught up with my score with the crucifix, and until the last boss, Yuki never died and cleared it.

Final score 920,000 vs. 890,000. Of course the latter was my score.

“I won!”

He liked it, clapping his hands on the streaming screen.

My back hurts after almost an hour of playing. I have to listen to my wishes and go to a hotel and sleep.

After 10 o'clock, we left the Game Center and now we're really heading back home. As the last hour was approaching, I could see one or two rushing to the station.

“Tell me what you want. You agreed to grant me a wish. ”

Yuki took out a small notebook from her bag and gave it to me shyly.

“What's your phone number? ”

“Is this your wish? ”

“Yes."

I feel ashamed that I put on the lewd devil while bowling. I picked up the notebook and wrote down my phone number.

“I'm usually home around 5: 00, so call me anytime. ”

“I had a really good time today. Joon-Hyuk.”

“Me, too. Do you want to grab a bite to eat before heading back to Kyoto tomorrow? ”

“Yes, I'll wait for your call. ”

When I arrived in front of Shibuya Station, I looked at the watch and said to Yuki,

“I think I'll just stay at a hotel nearby. Take care, Yuki. ”

“Yes, but I have a question for Joon-Hyuk...”

“What is it?”

“What would you wish for if Joon-Hyuk won? You were desperate for something. ”

“Oh, that's, um, a secret. ”

“Ah, well, that's a secret. But I think I know what it is. ”

“Hmm.. hmm..”

As I avoided looking away, Yuki smiled slightly.

“Rest well today. See you tomorrow. ”

“Yes, go in carefully. ”

After a while, Yuki disappears into Shibuya Station, and I rub my red face and mutter.

“Oh, it's hot. It's hot.

&

“Ugh! Even if I spend a little more money, the hotel is a luxury hotel. ”

After awhile I woke up from my hotel room, I cleaned up my frizzy hair and headed to the shower room. After finishing chikachika with the toothbrush in my mouth while half asleep, I felt a little clearer when I put cold water on my face.

On the hotel table were some of the cramped can beer rolling around.

I think it's a little too much to pull off a couple of beer cans while watching TV for nothing.

After I fell asleep a little late, I quickly packed my clothes and left the hotel after checking out.

“Since Kumgangsan is also a dessert area, can I have a quick meal before I meet Mr. Kawaguchi? ”

I opened a newspaper from the hotel emptying a bowl of flour in a covered rice house where I could eat without any pressure by myself. There was only news or newspapers in this era, so I tend to take a break every morning, but today there was a bit of fun news.
