The sales staff at Wujiang flagship store are all paid on commission; the more they sell, the more they earn.
If it weren't for the fact that Kono Taro's wallet was empty, the saleswoman would have recommended even more products to him, such as buying more "official batteries." Other battery brands, because they are not produced by Wujiang Group, are not compatible with Gameboy, not only consuming more power, but may also... potentially damage Gameboy. Therefore, she strongly recommends that users purchase "official batteries."
When users heard that other brands of batteries could damage their Game Boys, they asked him how to choose.
User: Do I even have a choice?
...
Akihabara, Japan.
"I've finally discovered that playing Tetris on Game Boy is the most fun!!!" a Game Boy player shouted excitedly.
My friends and I each have a Game Boy, and we connect simultaneously via infrared to play Tetris. We can compete against each other. After connecting, the games start at the same time, and everyone places their pieces in the same order to avoid unfairness. After the game ends, there are rankings and leaderboards.
"Yes, it's really fun! It's exciting and thrilling. The blocks fall faster and faster towards the end, almost too fast for your eyes to keep up. You have to rely entirely on your game sense. Kinoshita Wild, you're so good! You should participate in the Worldwide Tetris Championship hosted by Wujiang Group. Players with high enough points are eligible to participate. Not only is the prize money over $100,000, but you also have a chance to win a mystery grand prize!!!"
"Yes, Kinoshita Wild, you could totally participate in the competition, you might even have a chance to win first place!"
The eyes of several friends turned to a shy little boy with a few freckles on his face.
Kinoshita shook her head shyly and said, "I... I'd better not, I can't compare to others."
"Kinoshita Wild, you're too modest. I've never met a player as talented as you. Your Tetris score is a whopping 24,000, far exceeding the requirements for the competition. You're sure to win!"
"Okay, I'll give it a try..."
...
...
At this time, with the success of Game Boy, Tetris also became a huge hit.
Wujiang Group has even prepared to hold a world-class Gameboy Tetris competition at the end of the year.
The prize money for the champion is $100,000, the runner-up is $50,000, the third place is $30,000, and the fourth to tenth place winners also receive prize money, but the amount is small, only $1,000 each.

Lunch break room.
"Oh no, the game is over again~ Boss, Tetris is so hard! My highest score was only 8989!" Liu Yinyin said in distress.
Zhao Ye glanced at the secretary with disdain. "Little noob, you've only got 8989 points after playing for so long. My highest score is 33,000."
Withdrawing his gaze, Zhao Ye's mind raced as he continued to control the block, finding a suitable spot to deform and land.
On the screen, the left side is almost entirely piled up, except for the rightmost vertical row which is still empty.
At this moment, a long, horizontal rectangle appeared on the screen. Zhao Ye was overjoyed and quickly pressed the button to make it stand up, then moved it to the far right.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!"
This eliminated a large portion of it.
Hearing the sound of the blocks disappearing, Zhao Ye felt incredibly satisfied.
That's the charm of Tetris.
Even Zhao Ye, a big shot, enjoys playing this kind of game.
In its previous life, Tetris was a hit for decades, selling 500 million copies. There was also a Tetris movie based on the copyright war surrounding the game.
"Damn it, it's dead again!" Zhao Ye said regretfully.
At this point, the block reached the top of the screen, and the game ended. This time, he only got 26,000 points, which was not as high as his highest score.
It's probably because there are women around.
As the saying goes, "If you have no woman in your heart, you'll be a god when you draw your sword!"
"It must be the secretary's incessant chatter that affected my performance!" Zhao Ye gave Liu Yinyin a disapproving look.
The secretary, oblivious to Zhao Ye's gaze, lamented to herself, "Tetris is so hard to play! You have to be quick-witted and fast-handed. I'm afraid my brain can't keep up with the speed at which the blocks fall."
"By the way, boss, how many points do I need to pass the level?" Liu Yinyin turned to Zhao Ye and asked.
"50,000 points!"
"Inhuman! Is it even possible for anyone to achieve such a terrifying score?"
"I don't know, maybe there are. After all, there are so many people in the world, there are always some who have an exceptional talent for playing games!" Zhao Ye thought for a moment and replied.
"Boss, what happens after you beat the game?" Liu Yinyin asked curiously.
Zhao Ye was busy resuming the game and, upon hearing Liu Yinyin's question, casually replied, "Maybe it's just a short clip of a blonde beauty doing a sexy dance..."
He really didn't know what would happen after he finished the game.
However, many games in my past had similar settings. After all, if a game didn't have some erotic elements after completion, it would be difficult to attract players...
Upon hearing this, Liu Yinyin blushed and her ears turned red. She secretly glanced at Zhao Ye, only to find that he was completely engrossed in playing Tetris and hadn't noticed her change in expression at all.
...
"Damn it! Tetris has tournaments, so why don't fighting games have them? That's unfair! We demand that Wujiang Group hold a fighting game tournament!!!"
