Summer of 1994.

I feel like we walked the streets of the night when Yuki and the cherry blossoms were scattered, but it's already summer...

I feel that time passes very quickly when I enter the full-scale game development.

Tamago Shop in front of Akiba Station changed its name to Pentagon Premium Shop last week. In addition, the dedicated space for Tamago monsters inside the store has also been streamlined, so the service of renting portable gamboys has disappeared as before, other than the space for users to enjoy a simple battle.

Some users were worried about the disappearance of the Tamago monsters, but this is actually because there was a small disagreement between the mintendo side and the Pentagon.

Last month, thanks to the Tamago monster, Mintendo suddenly offered a high royalty for the regeneration of the cartridge in a friendly relationship.

The reason for this was that the term of the contract had expired, but that did not make any sense.

Kawaguchi's representative was furious about Mintendo's unjust treatment of the First Party, but I took it personally.

The reason Mintendo's out here is because he's got a great contingency plan in place.

Is the Pokémon Ball coming out already? You're faster than I thought… ’

Among the game titles that supported the mintendo brand, there were quality softwares such as the legendary Karin or the Donging Com series, in addition to the Super Maridge series.

These softs were popular not only with the tough super family, but also with the portable gamble boy.

However, after clearing all three titles once, there was a lack of a second element, so it was rather difficult to enjoy for a long time.

In this sense, the Tamago monster created by the Pentagon Soft has become an example of what one source multiUssing is.

The Pentagon built portable accessories handsets and linked them to portable gamboys made by Mintenso so that the Tamago monsters could enjoy the game at a glance, but this was not the case.

At the beginning of issuance, of course, it was difficult to sell because there were no game cartridges of Mintendo's Gameboys or Tamago monsters, but as time went on and the supply of Gameboys increased, Pentagon proceeds began to increase considerably more mainly by selling handsets than Mintendo.

Mintendo then tried to recalibrate the revenue distribution, but he had already signed the contract.

While Kamauchi instructed his friends to create a game of data communication using portable gambling bays, Shigeru was already overwhelmed by Karin's legend and the creation of the Dongking Com series, so Mintendo had no choice but to assign a second party to create a new game.

What appeared there was an IT company called Frick Soft.

Often people think that Pokémon Balls are made by Mintendo, but technically, Pokémon Balls are made by Frick.

Well, thanks to the power of the Pokémon Ball, Mintendo became first in rank and eventually became almost the first party.

At that time, Morita and her staff entered the staff entrance of the Pentagon shop before it was open.

“Sir, we have the heroes' posters and the idiot pop. ”

“Oh!! ”

At Morita's word, associates who were cleaning the Pentagon shop gathered at the Ur counter.

Employees who worked at the Pentagon Shop had been proud to be an avid Pentagon Soft fan since before working here, so they would go back and cheer on pure Pentagon-loving gamers every time a new game was released.

Some people said they joined to buy the Pentagon's first games at the interview, so the popularity of the Pentagon software within Japan was quite good among gamers as well.

However, after episode 1 of Dragon Emblem 2, everyone was a little disappointed that there was no game to be released. The news of the subsequent releases of the streets without me was an exciting announcement like the Davies in the drought.

After placing a box of POP water in front of those who were looking at the promotional flyers with excited eyes, no one had to take the cutter knife out of their pocket first.

“Move aside. I'm gonna have to tear this down first. ”

“Get in line!! ”

“It's been five years since I simultaneously launched at the Super Family launch, a street sequel without me. grumgh”

The employees hurriedly took out the isochronous POP water, pouring out impressive resilience.

“Let's see what this hero looks like! Huh? ”

With both hands supporting one key POP water, the employee tilted his head and looked at the other POP water. Other employees, however, were also looking at other leaflets of water with their own eyes.

“Sir, is this it? ”

“Huh? Oh, the faces of the heroes are still private...”

Yes, all the POPs that arrived today were drawn only by the backs of the heroes.

The first one is the blonde ponytail, and the second one is the wavy hair with a slight redness.

And the third little girl with brown hair who looked like she would make a cute impression to anyone, and the last black haired woman with an inviting feeling was the last hero.

They were all carrying one musical instrument behind them, a blonde ponytail with a violin and a brunette hair, and the little girl with the neck of the Challenge...

The other two characters majoring in piano had the piano placed to the left and to the right.

“Oh, I think I'm going to fall for something behind my back. ”

“Shit!! I've been waiting for this day since the rumors started circulating at HQ, and now I look behind me!! Behind the back of a pretty girl!!! ”

“As a gift from God... I feel like my heart is being tightened from the title. ”

“You can't be crying because you opened your face later. ”

Knowing the story behind the scenario on the smile of innocent employees, Maurita looks bitter.

I shouted in a loud voice, lifting the mood with applause if Morita's expression would be noticed by the staff.

“Well, the store is just around the corner. Everyone clean up quickly and put on a show at the promotional store. ”

“Yes, I understand!! ”

Since I had a lot of promotions to install before the opening, I took the poster out of the box and went around the window myself, and Maurita started rolling up her arms and moving flyers to help employees.

After finishing all the preparations before the opening, I took a step back without even noticing the guests coming to the store, looking at the Idol posters that I had already installed in the main window.

"A zombie movie is no different..."

August 12, 1994.

After a surprise announcement through the magazine last month. The whole of Japan began to be aroused.

I thought only one game would react like this, but the story on the street that I don't have is amazing. I was about to come to Pentagon headquarters and report to the press. I was hoping that Misato would come, but such a brilliant coincidence did not occur.

I see it on TV news sometimes, but it's still a bit of a waste.

Issue date of God's gift is December 24, 1994.

There's still four months left, and the only reason I'm going through that heat in August is because...

because today is the release of the download code for the pre-release trial in October.

And after a while. As soon as the door opened, the people who were waiting in front of the store started to rush in with the waves.

However, senior Pentagon associates who experienced this situation to the point of boredom quickly began to control their customers.

“The amount of deployment codes you have experienced is sufficient. Line up, please. ”

“Watch your turn. Please follow the control of your employees ~”

Users who searched for distribution code leaflets in Abigail only began to listen to employees when they were relieved that there was enough quantity.

Some of the gamers in the queue have made a devastating look at the way promotions show only the backs of store heroes.

“Thought you'd see the faces of the heroes if you came into the shop...”

“Yeah, I was looking forward to it. It's empty.”

“I'm fine. Is it something more exciting? I love that unique blonde ponytail...”

“Pony Tails are the truth... they must be very kind and active. ”

“I have a bad feeling about this character from the back. ”

“The only person in Hahn who can match Morita right now is Yoshihara Satoshi from Langrett. ”

“Well... I think I'm much better off with Mauritata. ”

“So am I. Yoshihara-san's illustration is definitely cool, but is it too unrealistic? Mauritania's character, on the other hand, has some kind of emotional appeal. And now he's a pretty good drawer...”

“Yes, that's right. That's exactly what I'm talking about! ”

I didn't know what to do, because Maurita had opened her face to eavesdrop on my customers' words at a good time. I tapped Mauritana's shoulder and laughed.

“How does it feel to be ahead of the competition? ”

“La, rival. ”

“You came to my office earlier and whined about how users compare to Yoshihara Satoshi. ”

Then Morita looked around and said to me with a embarrassing look.

“Commander, when did I...”

“Huh... Then who was I talking to? ”

“Well...”

In response to Morita's crawl, I turned my head toward the ceremony with a mourning smile.

When I returned home from work that day, I stopped in front of a convenience store near my house.

- Sweetheart...

“Oh, are you on your way home from work? ”

“ · · · · · ·. ”

Now, this 19-year-old woman, Albanian, says, "Welcome home," when I walk into the store, instead of, "Are you going home? ’I asked.

That means I frequent this convenience store on my way home from work...

“Yes. You're working again today? ”

As I walked to the refrigerator with the answer, the student called me up.

“I've already prepared it at the counter. A box of green tea ice cream, right? ”

I knew I didn't hear it once or twice, so I pretended to be pretty good. I turn my steps toward the refrigerator and turn to her.

“Does your wife only eat this stuff these days? ”

I nodded, smiling and smiling at Albanian's question.

“My wife has morning sickness. Haha...”
