Super Game Empire

On July 11, 1991, the first anniversary of the launch of Gamegear, Sega held a grand celebration, which instantly attracted the attention of the global electronic game industry.

Sega is advertising in four largest media in Japan. Starting from July 1, in addition to the special guests who directly qualify for tickets, ordinary Sega game fans can also obtain anniversary tickets through three other ways.

Method 1: There are 10 Sega stores nationwide, and one lucky person is randomly selected from the list of customers who enter the store to consume every day for 10 days. However, two people are drawn every day in Tokyo flagship store, and a total of 120 pieces are sent from the physical store.

Method 2: In the latest issue of the Primary School Pavilion comic magazine "Young Sunday" in July, there is a Sega readers questionnaire, fill in the questionnaire and send back the letter. Sega will randomly select 60 lucky readers from the letter to send tickets.

Method 3: In the Pokemon Battle Card Deluxe Limited Collection Edition Gift Pack sold in Japan in advance, there is a certain chance of ticket redemption coupons appearing. You can redeemed a ticket at any Sega store, totaling 120.

"Nobuo! Come and see the advertisement of Asahi Shimbun!" A high school student excitedly showed his classmates with a folded newspaper.

Nobuo couldn't let go of the gamegear in his hand and asked without looking back: "What's wrong with you, Fujita? I'm doing a Star Rabbit grabbing mission for Nami, don't bother me!"

Fujita quickly read the news, but was snatched away before he finished reading the newspaper. Nobuo grabbed the newspaper and quickly confirmed the news, and asked in a hurry: "Is this true? Is this true? Sega sales in Osaka

Isn’t the store just two streets away in the department store? Should we go and have a look?"

Fujita was excited: "Of course we have to go! But we still have two classes..."

Xinfu quickly folded the newspaper, pushed his glasses, grabbed his messy hair, gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry! Let's queue first. Come back and find a way! By the way, I'll queue up alone first. You can collect it. You know

All the "Young Sunday" is the one that has been serialized by the King of Fighters! If you want the latest version, go quickly!"

The two ran away separately. For high school students like Nobuo and Fujita, there are probably only three ways to get tickets, including the specialty store lottery and the primary school library comic questionnaire.

The luxury limited collector's edition of Pokemon Battle Cards must be something their students can't afford, and it's at least a high price of tens of thousands of yen!

Nobuo finally slipped out of the school. He ran to the Sega store two streets away, and then took out his wallet, which contained more than 2,000 yen of pocket money. Only then did he feel relieved.

"Hmph! The newspaper said that as long as you enter the store to spend every day, you can draw a lottery. I have more than 2,000 yuan here, which is enough to buy two latest gamegear game cards!" Nobuo breathed a sigh of relief and encouraged himself: "Sega".

Tickets for the anniversary celebration are mine! I must go to Tokyo! And I will get the souvenirs for Sega's anniversary celebration!"

"Nani!" Shinfu, who was gasping for breath, saw the scene that almost caused him to collapse across the street. When he approached and asked, he felt dizzy and almost fainted.

The Sega store next to the department store is 400 meters away. The long queue has extended to the street lights around the corner, and at least 1,000 people are queuing!

The husband who ran along the way held the telephone pole and finally recovered for a long time. He felt sad: "Don't you have to go to work? I don't care about the fine for absenteeism. Such a long queue affects public travel. Do you still have any more

Morality!"

Most of these people are people who work. Many people asked for leave and line up immediately after seeing the news in the newspaper. Everyone was not sure about the specific ticket redemption form, so they all wanted to see how they could be released on the first day.

What's the result?

There are also a few students who are similar to Xinfu, some college students with relatively loose academic courses, and some middle school students who secretly leaked out like him. But everyone has one characteristic: everyone is a loyal fan of Sega Games!

With a long queue, Nobuo moved forward little by little. At the same time, after communicating with the waiting people around him, he finally understood the importance of this Sega Carnival. It is said that many new arcade games were launched at the same time.

Pokemon's movies and cards were launched at the same time, and a number of home TV RPG games were launched at the same time, which made him very excited.

Final Fantasy, Legend of Heroes, Light and Power, the names of these RPG games sound exciting!

Sega has never developed RPG games on the md platform, and this time it launched the ** model, which makes Nobuo and other RPG game enthusiasts not tempted?

"Nobuo... Nobuo... I only borrowed 4 books..." Two hours later, after school, Fujita ran over panting, found Nobuo in the crowd, and said in surprise: "Oh my God! You waited for two hours.

The team, isn't it your turn yet?"

Xinfu was angry: "Don't worry about me, let's see you first! If you can't borrow it, then go and buy it!"

"Little brother, I can't buy it!" A group of people next to me smiled proudly: "The magazine stalls everywhere have been asked dozens of times! Today's Primary School Pavilion comics were sold out before noon! We

I got 15 books, hahaha..."

"Ba...Baga..." Nobuo and Fujita dared not speak out. This group of people was too much. Doesn't this reduce their chances of getting tickets?

The current turnover of Sega Osaka store exceeded 3 times that of usual. The clerks were so busy that they didn’t even have time to eat. Many people complained that this situation would last for ten consecutive days!

"The chance of getting tickets in specialty stores is one in ten thousand, and the chance of returning magazines is one in ten thousand, and the chance of lottery for luxury gift bags is one in four thousand. Consumers know more than us how to choose."

A clerk carried piles of game consoles and other goods to the cart in the warehouse, and laughed and communicated with his colleagues.

"Yes! Actually, I bought one myself..." Another person secretly said.

"You're crazy! Sega's internal employees are not allowed to participate in the lottery!" The first clerk was stunned and looked back, but no one noticed them.

The man smiled proudly and said, "It's okay. If I get it, I will sell it. Look at the fanatics outside the door. Even if you sell it for 200,000 yen per ticket, they are willing to ask for it!"

200,000 yen is almost the monthly salary of an ordinary person. In the eyes of some game enthusiasts, it is really nothing. They spend millions of dollars on Sega games every year. You can go and see Shanda with your own eyes.

Celebration, you can also get a unique souvenir. The tickets for 200,000 yen are the ones who are rushing to get them!

Nobuo and Fujita lined up for 2 hours, and it was already dark, and it was their turn.

I was so hungry that I was rumbled and suffered mentally, which would not be a good thing for anyone.

"What are the cheapest products?" Shinfu asked pitifully with his wallet.

Sega cashiers probably saw a lot and quickly replied: "The products below 500 yuan have been sold out. Now the cheapest products are the Pokemon series dolls, the three main characters are 800, Pikachu 1000, and the price is 1200.

There are not many ordinary game cards in the yen."

Nobufu was still hesitating, and the people behind him were impatient and urged loudly.

The two had to quickly choose two Pikachu dolls, one Fujita treasured by himself, and the other Nobuo planned to give it to Nami, so they obtained two shopping receipts, and the bill number was the lottery number.

"When will the result be announced?" Xinfu was still worried.

"At 8 o'clock in the evening, the big screen outside the Sega store will show the winning numbers, and you can also wait for the news announcement tomorrow morning! Thank you for your patronage, next one! What do you need to order?"

Nobuo and Fujita knew it. It was 8 o'clock in the evening, and it was still early. They reluctantly left the store and went home for dinner. Finally, they found a reason to sneak out. Before 8 o'clock, they came again.

Waiting in front of Sega store.

Closed at 7:30, and left half an hour to organize and draw. Outside the glass door at the door of Sega store, there were consumers watching the fun. They stared at Sega employees who sorted the bills into packages and used a transparent shell mixer.

Mixed and broken up tens of thousands of ticket stubs.

At about 8 o'clock, the store manager raised his right arm in front of the consumer, showing that he did not hide any bills in his hand, and then closed his eyes and pulled out one of the large piles of bills.

In an instant, all the consumers who could see the store manager's actions stopped breathing, and the customers who were slightly away were even more anxious and stood on tiptoe and wanted to see something.

The store manager held the copy of the bill tightly, walked to the glass door, and posted it on the list of "winners". All this was open and fair, without any shady or tricks, and the customers had no objection.

"No. 39104!" A loud voice screamed excitedly, and the sound quickly spread to the rear.

"What? What? The result is coming out?" Many people started to stir up and started to inquire with each other.

Sure enough, the huge TV screen on the exterior wall showed the winning number of No. 39104. The first reaction of hundreds of people was to lower their heads to check the stubs of the bills in their hands.

"I didn't win..."

"Not me..."

"Why……"

"Who is that lucky guy?"

"Who won! I want to buy it! I will pay 100,000 yen!"

"Is it a shame to say it out 100,000 yen? Sell it to me for 200,000! I want it!"

"Who won the game! I'll buy it for 300,000!"

“…”

The noise of hundreds of people is really terrifying. This scale will only appear during gatherings. People are surging and noisy. Exchange information is basically roaring, and the voice is lower, and people around cannot hear it.

Steven Fu, who was standing in the crowd and leaning against the outer layer, couldn't believe his eyes. The ticket number in his hand showed that it was 39103! (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better, updated and faster!
