Famicom games are the best childhood for players of our generation. I still remember that hot summer day, a few friends sat around a TV, staring at the screen intently, taking turns vowing to pass the game. From time to time there were bursts of laughter in the room, and from time to time there was the sound of cheering and fighting. And time always flies so fast, and the afternoon passes in the blink of an eye. Only then do I remember that I have to study tomorrow, but it seems that I haven't done my homework yet.
In that era of scarcity, it was the dream of many friends to have a game console at home!
We were all lucky at that time. Although game consoles and cassettes were expensive, there were always relatives, friends and classmates who had them at home. Game cartridges are basically pirated collections, such as 64in1, 72in1, 128in1, 540in1, and 999in1. The ones with slightly better quality are 4in1, 3in1, and 6in1. It’s almost impossible to see a cartridge with one game.
The games in these cartridges are quite satisfactory, and there will be no "embarrassing" scenes for children. In addition, there are also benefits in some games that are hidden deep enough that players without skills are basically unable to see them.
Many years later, when we experience the FC game collection on the emulator, we will find that we have missed a lot of benefits!
At that time, a relative had a disk drive at home, and it was said that he brought it back from Beijing. To be honest, although the disk drive game looks similar to that of Overlord, the details are obviously better and the content is richer.
At that time, I watched them play the mahjong game "Pretty Girls Celebrity Battle", but after watching it for a long time, I didn't play any of it. I felt it was boring and left. It was only after many years that I realized that the quality of this game was not even worse than "Electronic Base"!

In the past, it was not easy to see the two-dimensional style in games. After all, the pixels of eight-bit computers limited the game image quality. But this game can draw very beautiful pictures of girls, which is really not easy! The process is the same as the mahjong games we come across on the arcade platform.
Even if there are beautiful girls in eight-bit games, there is no scale, and even little kids will not feel any uneasiness or psychological shadow when watching them.
The jigsaw puzzle game was very popular in the 1990s. I still remember that I had a jigsaw puzzle player from "Saint Seiya". No matter how messed up it was, it could be restored within ten seconds.
But playing this "Pretty Girl Puzzle" on the Famicom is not that simple. After all, practice makes perfect with toys, and every picture in the game requires time to study. There must be the logic of the puzzle in your head, otherwise it will be easy. failed.

The puzzles in the game are all two-dimensional beauties in swimsuits. There is no bad guidance. Even if they are played by little kids, they will not affect their physical and mental health.
But to be honest, if I had seen this kind of scene back then, I would have still been a little unable to sleep at night! After all, the little kids of that era were obsessed with anime and comics, but they didn’t have many opportunities to get in touch with them.
In the 1980s and 1990s, just mentioning the word "photo" would make people's blood boil. At that time, many female stars in Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong and Taiwan published photos specifically, and these books and periodicals were also relatively popular at the time. Years later, as we come into contact with computers more and more often, the word "photography" becomes further and further away from our lives.
There were a lot of photo-based games at the time, but the quality varied, and most of them are not available today. However, there are indeed some games that are quite good, just like this "Beautiful Girl Photo Studio".
There are eight beauties in the game, plus two hidden characters. I have never understood how the game is played. It feels like it is taking photos of girls from various angles and recording all the details of their lives. Including doing housework at home, swimming, working, going to class...
The game does not have any challenging difficulty. If you don’t understand Japanese, you can just click casually.
Although the name sounds like a shooting game, it is actually a poker-type game. At that time, there were many games with the word "beautiful girl" in the game, but the ideal character design of "school uniform + beautiful girl" was relatively rare, and this game happened to be in that style.
The game style gives people a feeling of "Super Contra", after all, the BOSS is a bit like a Yin beast.
In the game cutscenes, we always see an alien behind the beauty, but she doesn't seem to be afraid. In fact, this game is adapted from animation, but if you can find the resources of the animation and watch it, you will understand why the alien always stands behind the beautiful girl.
I still remember that hot summer day, a few friends gathered in front of a TV, taking turns fighting to the death, and finally passed the level after a long battle.
Accompanied by bursts of laughter, I woke up from the dream.
Oh, I forgot, it turns out that I have grown up, got married, had children and lived an ordinary life.
The Famicom era seems to have happened many years ago.
Suddenly I remembered that red and white machine that was gathering dust in the corner. It had been idle for so many years. Maybe its parts had become too old to be used!
