Game Market 1983

EP. 13: Upcoming 16-bit Era (3)

“Kang-gun. Can you sit down for a minute? ”

“Yes?”

When I looked at the owner of Kamauchi, surprised by his unusually heavy voice, he slightly raised his mouth tail and recommended a seat across the street. What? It feels a little ominous...?

Did they find out I acquired the Litex? Or is it the Dragon Emblem developer I've been exposed to? No, it can't be... What the hell is wrong with you?

“Kang Jun-hyuk.”

“Yes, boss. ”

“How long have we been working together? ”

“It's been about four years. ”

“Yes, it's almost over this year, so it's going to be five years by the number of years. ”

“I see. Time flies. Haha..”

“Yes, in five years, our mintendo changed the industry from a toy store to a gaming company. It's also making overwhelming progress in the American gaming market. I think I've already done more than that with the minten my great-grandfather built. ”

What are you suddenly so proud of? Kamauchi said, swallowing a cup of coffee that had been placed on the table.

“And on that achievement, Gunpei and Blackie. And I think Kang Joon-Hyuk was helping you. So, um...”

“Yes, boss. ”

“I've got a lot on my mind lately.”

“Concerns?”

What do you mean, he's currently in the Japanese gaming industry? But if you're worried, you might as well talk to the same Japanese, Gunpei, or Shigei, why did you name me?

Kamauchi, who had been mowing for a while, took out a picture in his arms.

In the picture on the table, an ugly woman was smiling at me.

“She's my niece. What do you think?”

“Oh, it's so... beautiful. ”

This is the first time I've ever lied to myself that I feel guilty about.

“Do you like it? ”

Fuck you.

“Huh? Haha. Why did you suddenly give me a picture of your niece? ”

“This guy's a mess, but he hasn't found a mate yet. ”

I can't find it.

With her looks like this, her fate will probably be waiting for her in the next life. But you can't say that out loud! It's the biggest crisis since Time Slip in '83. This is what Kamauzzi stands for!! What do we do?

Kamauchi looked at the picture and opened his mouth, saying that he had no idea what was in English.

“So pretty, why do men still leave it alone? Do you know what happened to the eyes of the young people of the islands? ”

Why don't you go to the hospital and measure your eyesight? Are you fucking kidding me?

“So I was going to introduce you to a guy that my company deserves. Gunpei is already married, and Shinge is too old to introduce him to Sumire. So, um...”

I struck first before Kamauchi's last words came out.

“Excuse me, but is your niece...? ”

“I'm 24 this year. What a flower. ”

Flowers... Even weeds bloom in the middle of the Siberian Glacier. They're prettier than these flowers. If you're 24 years old in Japan, you're 26 years old in Korea. In the 1980s, marriage trends were a little fast, so it's the right time to get married, but why do you have a match?!

“You're 25 this year, right? This one, this one, is about the same age as Smyre, so it should be easy to get along with.”

“Is his name Smyre? ”

Apologize to the swallows right now. Kamachi...

“Nice name, too, isn't it? She's my sister's daughter. If you like it, why don't you meet him? ”

“I...”

“Yes, tell me. ”

“I...”

Kamauchi smiled with an anticipated expression.

Roll your head, Kang Jun-hyuk!! We must overcome this crisis!! So how do we get out of here? I'd rather spend the rest of my life locked up in my backroom and making games or waking up dead, I'm never gonna see this guy again.

Come to think of it, Kang Jun-hyuk. Escape this crisis with the sparkling idea that surprised everyone!!

“I'm a single person. ”

“What..? ”

What the hell did I just say?

At that moment, Kamauchi leaned as far away from me as he could, leaning against the back of a chair like lightning.

“Solitary? Does that mean you're not interested in women? ”

“That's right.”

“Huh! This guy can work day and night. You don't know the first thing about women. You have to get married and start a family to be a real man. ”

That's what I heard when I was in the army. When is he gonna be a real man?

“Never mind. You'll think differently once you see our one and only Sumire.“ ”

No, I think it will be more solid, but President Kamachi doesn't seem to take my position at all into consideration.

“If not, Smyre will also attend the company party at the beginning of next year, so I will formally introduce him. ”

“No, Ms. Grant, I really don't think...”

“You? You really think I'm introducing you to Smyre just because I want you to date her? ”

"Yes?"

"Don't you know that if you want to take on more executives in the company in the future, it's hard to be Korean right now? I'm trying to make you my family. A member of the Kamauchi family."

"But I..."

"Anyway, now that I think about it, you're good to go. Go to the lodge and think about what I said."

I smiled bitterly and greeted Kamachi and left the room.

Looking out the window, I saw the sunset over the late afternoon mountain.

Shouldn't you be dating Yuki? However, even though we weren't formally dating, we couldn't lie to each other about it.

Even in 2015, women's relationships are quite knowledgeable.

Anyway, we need to make some travel arrangements for the in-house party early next year.

The following day, Mintendo's headquarters entered an emergency with the announcement of a portable gamble boy.

Due to a limited offer of 2000 yen, phone calls to Mintendo's headquarters went from a large retailer to a retailer.

Thanks to this, all 300,000 of the initial production quantities that were targeted for shipment have been successfully booked.

In the release of Mintendo's portable gaming device, which reigns on the current home console throne, the next-generation NEGA drive was forgotten in people's memories in just one day's announcement.

It was natural that I was more interested in the device that was coming out next month than the next generation that would come out in a year.

Then Gunpei came to me with the office door open.

“Stronghold. I have attached an additional connector for the duo, as you requested, but will this port be of any use later?" I think a portable gaming console is enough for one person. ”

Completed Gameboys had additional ports to play the match while wired with other devices. Everyone objected to the cost savings, but it was a result of the strong impression that I needed a dedicated power port.

I smiled and answered Gunpei's question.

“I need it. I have to. ”

“Huh-huh, I took your side in the battle port since you were usually quiet, but is it really okay? ”

“Well, we'll see. That port will turn Gunpei's Gameboy into a great monster machine. ”

Even with siblings, management judged that they would not buy two expensive portable gaming machines, and expected that portable gamblers would sell about a million. However, the emergence of this portable gamble will set a massive record of 1869 million RPG games around the world.

What the hell is that RPG? Why do you remember that bread in the '90s, with stickers called Tiboutivu silk, and the monster that was on the news with the stickers thrown away?

But if you don't know, just wait a little longer. I'll remind you what it is.
