This is the 394th original article of the Old Boy Game Box. Author @后草文
When I was a child, I saw a home game console in the furniture store in front of my dad's factory. The boss was playing the legendary electronic game ancestor "PONG" on a spherical old TV. At that time, I had no idea about home phones, and from time to time, my dad wanted him to buy me a game console.
Until the third grade of elementary school, I finally had my first FC game console in my life. In my memory, it was not the classic red and white Nintendo machine, but the gray one. It should be a copycat game console produced by the "little genius" at that time. The cassette purchased together was the doubles masterpiece "Double Dragon 2" that was popular in the 1980s and 1990s world at that time.
When I was a child, I really couldn't put it down. Even when I was sleeping, I had to put the cassette next to my pillow. After experiencing countless days of fierce battle, even in my dreams, I was thinking about where the enemies appeared in "Double Dragon", what tactics should be used to fight the boss battle, and how to jump the mechanism, and I almost memorized the game process. The game soundtrack and sound effects also linger in my mind, and it has not yet passed until today.
Entered "Double Dragon 2" again after dinner one day. After a lot of hardships, I finally opened the game. The excitement at the moment when the level-through screen came out was simply uncontrollable. I jumped up from the stool and shouted that my parents would come and see my great achievements! But the next style...
This picture was unexpected to me. I covered my eyes and pretended not to see it, for fear that my parents would feel precocious... But my parents were indeed people who were activated and understood, and did not scold their son for it. Later, many players on the Internet had been scolded and made things difficult by their parents when they were young, so I felt that my parents were really too open to me. I would like to thank them again for their understanding and support for me.
As for the time when I didn’t have a game console earlier, I took advantage of my cousin’s night shift to run to his dormitory to play his game console every Saturday. I remember that the stair light in the old dormitory was broken and there were no windows. At seven or eight o’clock, I could not see my fingers, but I had to do it to play games. There was no one in his small single room. At that time, I was playing " Contra ". Every few levels in the next few levels were scenes of alien monsters. I felt a little embarrassed when I was in the second and third grades of elementary school. The more I am afraid, the more I want to play, and finally passed the game under such circumstances.
Then I need to go home at around 10 o'clock, and I turned off the lights and walked down the stairs in the dark. The nightmare-like fear is simply unremembering. Now as a man in his forties, he still feels a little scared every time he plays the game "Contra", and he feels indescribable embarrassment, afraid of having nightmares one day.
As for the game without any psychological shadow or embarrassment in the era of Red and White Machines, it is also called "Cuban Warrior". Playing this game only allows you to enjoy it. The whole game scene is extremely hot. I just remember that the screen flashed throughout the whole process and never stopped. As for the game "Cuban Warriors" itself, there are some prototypes of the "grass-cutting game" of Yuanzu. They either carry a flamethrower on their shoulders or step on a chariot to kill gods and Buddhas. What impressed me most was the scene of the submarine. The enemies jumped out of the submarine almost formed an army. As a result, they were like the miscellaneous soldiers in the anti-Japanese drama, and they were all killed by us. It was so exciting to play.
The favorite friend doubles third level BOSS level that year, two people guarded both sides of the submarine, so that no enemy can be let go. We had also counted carefully at that time that more than a hundred people appeared from the submarine, from green to yellow to
, all of whom were amazed at the end of the submarine, which was simply black technology. Only then did we understand the real feeling of the four-word idioms such as "wherever we pass, we are like a bamboo, and blood flows into a river."
As for the game that really brings me a sense of oppression in the BOSS level, it also needs to be the ancestor of the card game "Saiyan Extinction Plan". The game's midfield boss battle gathers four super powerful enemies: Tares who is very similar to Goku, Slagu, the evil Namik, Frisa in the final form, and Frisa's brother Gula.At that time, I was studying the strategy game with my best friend. At the beginning, Frieza was shocked when he appeared in the screen. Unexpectedly, the game of the legend could have such a powerful big-name enemy in the legend. After
, Gula, Slagu and Tares gradually flashed out. At that time, four very powerful evil people in the Dragon Ball universe gathered in front of us at the same time. This posture made us feel a chill when we were sitting in front of the TV, just like the native shadow of Clin when he saw Frieza in "Dragon Ball Super". What to do if
? Try it first! In fact, the arrangement in the game is quite kind. These four bosses appeared in groups in two or two, and then they were resurrected and played twice in total. The difficulty is not enough to reach the bottom of the level. The feeling of accomplishment of knocking down these four strong men was overwhelming. When we were in school on Monday, we couldn't help but brag about yesterday's extraordinary battle between our classmates, which made everyone envious. After that, we also devoted ourselves to the "Saiyan Extinction Plan" game. But looking back, it feels not satisfying enough. It would be great if the Kinewit team chose a melee in "Frieza" and could choose to play four evil men at once.
Looking back at the past, it seems that childhood is not far away, and the scenes of the past are still fresh in memory. Whenever I see those familiar games in the simulator list, I can’t help but think of those impressive times back then. Now I’m over 100 years old, and I can’t help but think of what games will be left indelible in their memories when their children grow up?
