Takayuki once again took out a key and personally opened the treasure chest.
He reached in with one hand and then pulled out an item.
At this moment, the item was still covered in golden light, making it difficult for people to see its outline clearly.
Those who were about to do other things immediately stopped and stared intently at the golden light in Takayuki's hand.
Hayakawa Uejito squinted his eyes, as if trying to see clearly what Takayuki held through the screen.
Something that could be held in one hand, could it be an accessory for a new console?
Hmm, makes sense.
You scared me there! I thought you were going to unveil something earth-shattering again.
But is it a bit too much to save this for last?
Could this be some kind of revolutionary accessory?
However, when the golden light dissipated, he couldn't sit still anymore.
It was a device no larger than the palm of his hand.
Its overall appearance was rectangular, with a screen in the middle at the top.
Hayakawa Uejito suddenly stood up from his seat, his breathing seeming a bit rapid.
Although he had never seen anything like it before.
But the moment he saw it, he realized what it was.
A handheld gaming device that could be played anytime, anywhere!
Damn it!
Why does a small company like Gamestar have so much energy to develop two gaming consoles simultaneously?
The players in front of their TVs were also now somewhat stunned.
At this moment, they no longer had any excitement, just a sense of bewilderment.
What is that?
It looks really interesting.
"Dear players, this is the second gift I bring to you. I call it the GAMEBOY, or GB for short. If we were to use an official name, it would be called the Handheld Entertainment Computer, a handheld gaming device that you can enjoy anytime, anywhere."
At present, mobile phones have gradually become popular, and people have become accustomed to carrying a phone with them at all times, and gradually cannot do without it.
The moment adults saw the appearance of the GB, they immediately understood its purpose.
The camera quickly zoomed in, focusing directly on the GB, giving a close-up view.
This was also what all players most wanted to see.
"After the tireless efforts and huge investment of our engineers, we have finally completed the production of this handheld gaming device. And we are happy to announce to you all that the performance of this gaming device can rival that of the Famicom. However, in order to maintain longer battery life, we had to regretfully sacrifice the color screen. But I can assure the players that this gaming device is definitely worth its price. You can experience games similar to the Famicom in the palm of your hand."
"Dad, I want this! Please! I'm willing to give up my allowance for a year! I just want this, and a few games too!"
Among the children, especially the boys, their eyes were completely glued to the GB on the TV screen.
It seemed to possess an unparalleled allure.
And as fathers, they really wanted to refuse their children's requests on the spot.
But looking at that gaming device...
Damn it! Forget about the kids, I want to buy it too!
With this, can I play games freely even on the commute?
Perhaps the commute won't be as boring as hell anymore.
If I have something to pass the time with at work occasionally, instead of just sneakily reading newspapers or drinking tea.
"No, I definitely won't buy it for you."
I'll sneakily buy it for myself.
Many fathers thought the same.
But the children paid no attention to them, desperately pleading with their parents, making promises, and doing everything they could to get their hands on the GB.
With this, these children had reason to believe that they were definitely the coolest kids among their friends!
Takayuki continued to introduce from the TV screen: "To welcome this new type of handheld gaming device, we have also prepared a rich lineup of launch games for it. Among them, Tetris will be bundled with the gaming device, so you can directly own a game by purchasing the device."
"In addition to Tetris, we have also prepared another Super Mario specifically for the GB, as well as the sequel to our great baseball game, Super Baseball: Home Run for the Handheld, and a sequel from the world's first female hero Samus: Metroid: Samus Returns."
"Play the trailers quickly! I want to see the previews!"
The players in front of the TV shouted excitedly.
But at this moment, Takayuki put the GB back into the treasure chest.
"I know you all want to see more game previews, but I regret to say that our time for the presentation is limited, and we have already done our best. Furthermore, some games are still incomplete. I hope to release our game previews when the games are complete, so please stay tuned!"
The screen dimmed, and silhouettes of some familiar characters appeared one by one, each seemingly facing troubles in their own worlds, waiting for players to help them solve them.
Finally, the screen froze on a few words thanking the viewers, with the GAMESTAR logo displayed below.
The presentation officially ended.
But the players couldn't calm down for a long time.
It's not enough!
Why did it suddenly stop?
Damn TV station, couldn't you give us a little more time? We want to see the game previews for the GB handheld!
Even if they're not ready yet, at least let us see what they look like.
Do you Gamestar still want to make money?
If you keep teasing us like this, we might give up buying your gaming device!
But these were just empty threats.
Now, fathers, young people who had just started working, and middle schoolers working multiple jobs were all running to their piggy banks, taking out their hard-earned savings.
Now, no one can stop them.
Anyone who tries to stop them is committing a crime!
If it weren't for the fact that the gaming device hasn't been released yet, they would rush to the nearest store with their money and shout, "Shut up! Take my money! And give me the gaming device!"
But that was just wishful thinking.
After the presentation ended, Tokyo TV's programming would continue as usual, followed by a talk show, which just happened to feature interviews with several employees of Gamestar Entertainment, seamlessly following up on the previous presentation.
Out of curiosity, almost no one changed the channel, wanting to hear what these employees would say.
As for Takayuki, he sat at home satisfied after watching the recorded presentation.
Hmm, the overall effect wasn't bad at all. It seems I have a bit of talent for performance.
In the future, if there's ever a game that changes movies or something, maybe I can consider making a cameo.
