Chapter 203 High-tech from Japan
"Hey, Steve, why are you guys running so fast these days? Stop hanging out with us?"
In a high school campus in the United States, young people are freely swaying their youth.
Among these people, three or four were fighting together.
Steve was being put around his neck by several people, asking him why he didn't play with them in recent days.
"Didn't I say, I have something fun at home, and I also invited you to come and play, but none of you are willing to come."
"Fun stuff at home? What fun can be at home, could it be... oh I see."
A group of people showed mysterious smiles.
Steve immediately defended: "What are you **** thinking, I've already said it, my family has a game console that can be played on TV, it's super fun."
"Game console? Oh, by the way, I remember that my brother's house also bought it recently, but they are all toys for children to play with, what's the point, you are so naive."
They looked at Steve with contempt, feeling that he still likes to play with the kind of things only children play.
"No, this is definitely not just for children, this thing is really interesting, do you want to go to my house to experience it?"
"If you don't go, just go play your childish video game, let's go play basketball."
Steve suddenly remembered something, and then said: "I suddenly remembered that there seems to be a basketball game in the game console, which is very interesting."
"Huh? Basketball game on TV?"
Several young people like to play basketball. In American schools, basketball, football and baseball are very popular sports, and almost 95% of the boys like these sports.
As soon as they heard the basketball game on TV, they suddenly became interested.
One of them said suspiciously: "But, I remember that there is no basketball game in my brother's game console. He only plays the childish Sun Knight every day, and saves the princess every day. , in addition to that, it's also a racing game, which is a bit interesting."
"Sun Knight?" Steve thought for a moment, then said, "You mean PN game console, right?"
"It seems so... I don't know, I can't remember these things."
When Steve heard this, he immediately said with disdain: "The kind of game console your brother plays is rubbish, and the game console I play is not of the same grade. The game console I play is imported from Japan. There are so many games, and every one of them is very interesting, in addition to basketball games, there are racing games, and baseball games."
Several people looked at each other, and they seemed to be persuaded.
"How about, come and play at my house. I still have snacks and juices at home. I guarantee that you have played my game console and you will be conquered immediately."
Steve looked expectantly at his friends.
"Then... just go for a while, it's just for fun anyway."
These young people have never run out of energy, and they have just felt a little bored recently.
Listening to Steve's explanation, they felt that they could really experience it a little.
It won’t take long anyway.
If it's really boring, they'll just taunt Steve for being naive, and then go home.
A few friends came to Steve's house all the way.
Steve's home is a very common single-family house in the United States. They have been friends for many years. They have long been familiar with his home. When a few people entered the house, they immediately ran to Steve's bedroom to see if there was anything they could not see. people stuff.
But as soon as they entered, they found a lot of game cassettes scattered on the ground, dozens of boxes.
There are various posters of American singers and movie stars on the wall. There is a small TV by the bed that is connecting two game consoles. There is also a GB game console and seven or eight GB game cartridges on the bed.
"Huh? Is this a game console? It feels so special, why haven't I seen these things sold in stores?"
Steve's friends curiously picked up the cassettes and observed them.
Steve grabbed the cassette and said, "These are the things my dad brought back when he came back from Japan. He brought a whole set, but don't mess with it, if it breaks, I will No more playing."
"Are these games?"
"Yeah, wait a minute, I'll show you a video game."
Steve rummaged through the stack of cassettes and found a box of games that said Hot-Blood Basketball.
This game was launched after the rumored game of the Super Baseball Tournament, Hot-Blood Major League. The gameplay of the game is very similar to that of Hot-Blood Basketball. The essence is the gameplay of basketball, with some nonsensical additions added.
In Japan, this game is more popular than the ordinary basketball game that Take Yusei made before.
Because kids love it.
Steve also thinks that this is the most fun basketball game he has ever played. It is witty and interesting, and there are all kinds of super moves. Anyway, it's cool.
Steve picked up the controller, adjusted it skillfully, then picked up another controller and said to his friends, "Come on, whoever comes to experience it, I'll teach you how to play this game first."
One of Steve's friends took the lead in picking up the controller. He had played game consoles with his younger brother before, and he was quite familiar with using the controller.
Others stared at the TV screen with wide eyes.
"Why is it all in Japanese?"
Steve explained: "This product was only sold in Japan before, of course, only in Japanese. Don't worry, if you just play basketball games, it will not affect at all, but I heard that the company is planning to sell it in the United States recently. It should be soon. You can see the news of the official sale of this game console."
Steve soon led his friends to the start screen of the game.
"This basketball game doesn't look that good."
"Yeah, I thought it would be fun."
Several people who didn't play started to discuss it later.
Steve and another friend who were playing have stopped talking.
The rules of the game are 2V2, each player can control two basketball players to attack.
In the beginning, Steve was only used as a guiding role to help his friends familiarize themselves with the operation method.
As my friend used a weird ultimate move to suddenly slam a dunk, the few people who were discussing just now fell silent for a while.
"Wow, it feels good." Steve's friend who was playing at this time said happily.
In real life, of course, this so-called big dunk can't be done, but in video games, you can use your imagination, but it's obviously not so easy to get them to admit that this thing is interesting.
