Tokyo Video Game Tycoon: Chapter 44 Release date
Chapter 44 release date
In March, cherry blossoms in various places begin to bloom in Japan from south to north. At this time, government officials in various places will promote the cherry blossom viewing season, and some stores also begin to sell cherry blossom-related products.
On this day, there is a new product that seems a little out of place with the season.
FC type home entertainment computer.
A brand new special product.
Its function is just for pure entertainment.
At the entrance of Daejeon Entertainment Hall, the only sales store, there was already a long queue.
There are many familiar faces among them.
They are all guests who have experienced video games at Daejeon Entertainment Hall before.
This time, most of the people queuing up were adults, but many of them were pulled over by their children, who said that if they didn't buy it for them, they wouldn't care about their parents again for a year.
In desperation, seeing that the price of this thing was quite acceptable, I simply came over and bought it for my children to keep them completely quiet.
"What's so fun about this thing? And there's such a long queue. I said, kid, I'll take you to buy the latest transforming robot. I heard that that one is imported from the United States. It's much more fun than this one, and it's even better than this one. expensive."
“I don’t want it! I want this!”
"Fine."
Parents generally feel that the queue is too long, so they are a little impatient.
But the child couldn’t stand it.
This also makes them more curious about what is so fun about this thing.
They also noticed that there were dozens of tents at the entrance.
Those are obviously the people who came and queued up several days in advance.
They generally look young, probably in their early twenties or less.
In order to buy this thing, do you still need to do such a crazy thing?
You should know that it is still early spring and the weather is still a bit cold.
I really can’t figure out what these people are thinking. No wonder they say that today’s young people in Japan are all the beat generation.
It’s so crazy to buy something for entertainment.
With a crash, the rolling shutter door slowly opened, and the people hiding in the tent immediately heard the wind and got out one after another.
“Wait a minute, I’m the first, please don’t jump in line.”
“Don’t crowd, don’t crowd!”
As the sign at the door changed to "Open for Business", people immediately poured into the entertainment hall.
The entertainment hall, which was originally somewhat empty, was filled with people soon after.
They waved their money and clamored to buy game consoles.
Especially for the first few people in line, they directly want to buy more than ten game consoles, and they also need to match several games and buy them in a package.
Tsukino Aya still wrapped herself up tightly today as always and avoided getting too close to anyone.
When she saw the huge queue, she immediately backed down.
She has actually made a prediction.
Today, I’m afraid I can’t buy a game console.
This made her feel a little regretful.
With so many people queuing up, she couldn't help but feel fear.
During this period, Tsukino Aya always came over in the middle of the night.
Because there were the fewest people at that time, she could occupy a game console and play by herself without anyone around.
It would be great if this store could also sell game consoles in the middle of the night.
Tsukino Aya thought so.
She really wanted to play these games right away, but...
She looked at her hands and then at the crowd.
I want to muster up the courage to go there, but the fear spreads quickly again.
Forget it, I won’t go.
Aren't they just a few games? You can play them morning and night. At most... at most, you won't have to sleep for a few more days.
She hasn't slept well these past few days because there are no games to play.
She really wanted to complete Dragon Quest.
In the past few days, she had almost turned the Dragon Quest trial into a speedrun.
By the way, why can’t I make my own game?
But... what to do?
She is good at using computers but has no idea how to make games.
There is no relevant person in this world to guide you on how to make games.
“There are a lot of people, right?”
Suddenly a voice appeared next to Tsukino Aya.
"ah!"
Tsukino Aya was startled immediately, jumped away quickly, and looked at the person who broke in and made a sound in horror.
“I’m sorry, I might have scared you.”
Zhu Youxing was stunned.
He did not expect that the girl who had been standing aside would react so strongly.
The most a normal person would do is tremble a little, but she jumped out immediately. Was she scary?
Today is the day the game console is officially released.
No matter what, he will definitely come here to take a look.
Originally, he planned to enter the store, and he had his camera ready. On a day like this, he would definitely take a few more photos as a souvenir.
But one person caught his attention.
It’s Aya Tsukino.
She wrapped herself up tightly, and looking at her from a distance, she didn't look like an ordinary passer-by, which seemed a bit strange.
So Zhu Youxing walked over and wanted to chat.
“Please don’t come near me, just stay where you are.”
Tsukino Aya raised her hand as if to stop her, and looked at Takeyusei warily.
Zhu Youxing was suddenly puzzled. This man was getting weirder and weirder.
“You look like you want to buy a game console, but why don’t you get in line?”
Just now, Takeyusei noticed that Tsukino Aya had the urge to walk over several times, but would quickly stand still.
This is indeed a bit unusual.
“There are… too many people here.” Said Tsukino Aya, tilting her head and not wanting to look at anyone at all.
"There are too many people... Yes, too many people seem chaotic. Some people really don't like this kind of environment. Speaking of which, we really need to consider customers like you." Zhu Youxing touched his chin and thought.
“What?” Tsukino Aya didn’t react for a moment.
"Oh, that's it. I'm also a sales employee, but I'm just a substitute at any time. If you don't want to queue up, you can leave your address and we will send it to your doorstep by mail. You only need to pay cash on delivery. , just like TV shopping.”
At this moment, Zhu Youxing suddenly remembered the express delivery from his previous life.
Sure enough, this kind of electronic product with huge sales volume in the future will still have to be delivered by express delivery.
Simple store sales are a bit inefficient.
Tsukino Aya began to look at Takeyusei suspiciously.
No matter how she looked at Zhu Youxing, he didn't look like a sales employee.
But it certainly doesn’t look like a completely unrelated passerby.
"Well, if you don't believe me, you can give the address to the people in the store. I will arrange for one or two people to come out to register later and try to deliver the goods to your door within three days."
After finishing speaking, Zhu Youxing walked into the store.
He suddenly thought of some inspiration to speed up sales efficiency, and he was ready to have a good chat with Ota, but he had no time to continue chatting with Tsukino Aya.
But the image of this strange girl stuck in Zhu Youxing's mind.
Tsukino Aya looked at Takeyusei entering the entertainment hall with suspicion. Then she felt that Takeyusei's suggestion was indeed good, so she took out a paper and pen from her pocket and wrote her address and contact information on it.
Not long after, two clerks also walked out of the store, holding a huge sign that read 'Address Registration Office. Customers queuing up behind can register their addresses here (only in the Tokyo area). They will be registered within three days. There is door-to-door delivery. ’
Tsukino Aya's eyes lit up immediately after seeing it, and she quickly walked forward, handed the address she had written to the clerk before anyone else, and then quickly evacuated without looking back.
Watching the first person leave so quickly, as if running away, the two clerks were also a little confused.
“Hey, wait, I seem to remember this girl. She seemed to come here often to play games in the middle of the night.”
“Ah, is that the night monster?”
"What kind of night monster? It's so rude. Why is she called that?"
“Because it was the guests who said so. They said that girl forbids anyone from getting close to her, and she can’t even watch her play games. She is a strange woman.”
“emmm…it does seem a bit strange.”
Tsukino Aya, who left at this time, was not aware of the discussion behind the scenes. She was in a good mood now.
It was delivered to your doorstep in three days, well, it’s still acceptable.
If I wait here, I don’t know how long it will take to find the free time to buy a game console.
