In terms of restoring games and consoles, the Resistance Army did a good job.
Let's talk about the "technology" first … Given that the Resistance Army's technology was far ahead in this era, asking them to create consoles and games before the twenty-first century was like asking the scientists of the twentieth century to create a steam engine — it was a piece of cake.
As for the 'knowledge' required to restore the game … that was not a problem either. The 'knowledge' obtained by the Perceptive Leapers was different from a normal 'memory'. It was a very deep, clear, and precise information … just like a computer's data. Moreover, this "knowledge" was almost all about video games. Because "video games" were the main target of Peeta after he changed the timeline, the anti-correction effect brought about by the space-time paradox was also targeted at this point.
In summary, the engineers of the Resistance Army were fully capable of restoring games that appeared in another timeline 100% of the time.
However, in actual practice, they did not do so.
For example, of the five games that Feng Bujue was playing, four of them were slightly different from the original version.
First, Brother Jue cleared Ninja Dragon Sword 3 at a very fast speed under the shocked gazes of the NPCs. This game … was the only one that he had played that day that was exactly the same as the original version. Even if there were any differences, it was the kind that the players would not notice.
Then, Feng Bujue drew a rather strange FC game … The Simpsons: Bart vs. the Space Mutants. Believe it or not, this game was very difficult to learn and play. If it was the first time you played it and did not read any manual or guide, you might not be able to find a way to pass the first level even after studying it for an hour or two.
But in the version created by the Resistance Army, this game had built-in hints and instructions …
When he saw this change, Feng Bujue was a little surprised, but he quickly accepted this reasonable setting and cleared the game.
Then, Brother Jue played the third game, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3 (the Japanese version was called Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2, the American version was 3). This game was the pinnacle of FC's last generation. Whether it was the music, graphics, details, or design, they were all at the limit of functionality.
However, for most players who were born in the 1980s and could only play pirated cartridges, this game was full of blood and tears …
Why was this? Because the program of this game was self-contained! Hack! Version! Check! Test!
When you entered the game and came to the title screen, the program would start and self-check. If the program did not detect the KONAMI logo on the title screen, then the game would automatically change to the hidden "Inferno difficulty" mode.
It was obvious that the knockoff cassette would not have the logo on top of the title. Thus, countless small cassette players were tortured like bears without knowing it.
While the original players were enjoying the game, the children playing the pirated version were struggling in Inferno. When they finally reached Schlaider, they realized that the boss was set to be unkillable.
Did you think this boss was unkillable because of a bug? Wrong! It was purely because the cartridges were pirated!
It could be said that Konami, in an unexpected era, allowed young players to experience the difference in treatment between paying players and free players. The worst part was that the players who played the pirated cartridges had also paid for it … It was just that they didn't know that they were playing a pirated version of the game.
Okay, I'm getting a little off topic. Let's get back to Brother Jue.
The version of the Resistance Army that Feng Bujue was playing did not have the KONAMI logo. After all, in this era, it was a company that did not exist and had never existed. However, Brother Jue was surprised to find that the game he was playing was on the original difficulty. It seemed that the engineers of the Resistance Army did not even come up with a detection program.
Therefore, as a China player who could even handle Inferno difficulty, he was overjoyed when he entered this difficulty.
Because he was so excited, he even managed to play through the long process of the game again …
At this point, Colonel Conrad and the surrounding guards had basically confirmed that Brother Jue was a Perceptive Leaper. Furthermore, he was a "geek" Perceptive Leaper (equivalent to an esports expert among Perceptive Leapers).
However, the Colonel and the others did not immediately ask Feng Bujue to stop playing. Even though he had far exceeded the requirement of "beating all three games to the third level", they still watched quietly. This was because they did not have the chance to see the completion screen of those games (they could not beat it themselves).
As for Feng Bujue … he did not mind. He took out the fourth game, RAF _ World. Due to the efforts of the pirated manufacturers, this game had at least three more famous aliases — Interstellar Contra, The Final Colony, and Future Soldier. Among them, the most well-known was probably Interstellar Contra.
This was an epic work with a high difficulty, optional weapon system, and excellent level design. The most noteworthy thing was that this unpopular game's music was one of the best among similar FC games. Perhaps the game did not have a godly BGM like Tears of Blood (from Hellion Citadel 2), but the overall quality of the music was even better than many other games of higher quality.
Logically speaking, the game itself was perfect and did not need any changes. However, the engineers of the Resistance Army still made some changes — they added an ending.
Some people might ask why there was no ending if it was a "perfect" game.
This is a long story … Initially, RAF _ World was made as a spin-off game of the movie Terminator (if this could be done, we would be able to play a "good" Terminator game on FC). Later, because they could not obtain the copyright, Sunsoft could only change the name of the game and make some changes to the opening script. However, the ending content of the Terminator plot was already made, and the data could be found in the ROM.
Of course, if you did not know about these settings, it would not affect the game experience because the integrity of the game itself was still perfect. There was also an ending animation, but the script related to the Terminator was deleted.
…
About two hours later, finally …
Feng Bujue played the fifth game, Super Mario Bros., which was also the "Super Mario" that we often talked about.
In 1985, this Italian plumber slowly walked out of the desert of the game industry after Atari's attack and created a legend of the savior at the end of the century …
Well, maybe it was not that exaggerated …
There was too much to say about Mario, but at the same time, this part of the story was the least necessary because … the legend about him had already existed in everyone's hearts.
Even Master Sonic had to spread his hands and pat the plumber on the shoulder, "You're more suitable for the title of the most popular game character in history."
So, for such a classic game, what did the engineers of the resistance army change? Actually, it was nothing much, they just fixed the "card through the wall" bug.
Overall, as a group of copycats in the new era, the various changes made by the Zhiyue people were very good …
"Phew … Princess Peach was also rescued." When the ending screen of the game appeared, Feng Bujue finally put down the controller, took a deep breath, and turned around. "How is it? Do you have any other requests? "
"You … please wait a little longer." At this time, Colonel Conrad's attitude toward Brother Bujue became very respectful. She turned around and looked at the guards, "I have to leave for an hour or two, you … uh … protect Mr. Feng. Try to satisfy whatever he needs …"
"Yes!" Lightning stood up straight and replied with a resounding voice.
A few seconds later, the colonel, who was about to walk out of the office, seemed to have remembered something. Before leaving, she turned around and added, "Oh right! Remember … you can't hurt Mr. Feng, do you understand? "
"Yes!" The four guards in the office replied in unison.
Then, the colonel left the room, and the guards all stared at Feng Bujue … If one had to describe their gazes, it was like a group of civilians who saw a living Buddha on the street, ready to kneel at any moment.
"Haha … don't look at me like that, guys." Feng Bujue, the narcissist … oh no … the very humble man, obviously enjoyed the attention. He smiled proudly and said, "I'm embarrassed."
Although that was what he said, with his thick skin, the word "embarrassed" was rarely used to describe him.
"Huh?" Two seconds later, Brother Bujue raised his eyebrows and said, "Anyway … since we're just waiting, let's play another game."
"Okay, okay!" When the youngest of the four guards heard this, he immediately nodded in response with a face full of joy.
However, Lightning Head and the other two guards immediately rolled their eyes at him.
"Haha …" Feng Bujue chuckled. "Relax, there's no need to be so nervous." He lifted his head to look at the lightning head. "Er … Big sister, do you want to play with me?"
…
Just like that, more than an hour passed.
Colonel Conrad came back, and beside her was a little boy who looked less than ten years old.
The colonel took the boy's little hand and led him into the office.
At the same time, inside the room, Feng Bujue was playing Contra 2 with Lightning Head. The latter was so high that the image of a domineering woman from before had disappeared without a trace. In fact, she had revealed her true self.
The other three guards were standing behind Brother Bujue and watching with full concentration. Their weapons were hanging on their backs, and they were completely defenseless. They didn't even notice someone coming in.
"Hmm …" Seeing this scene, Conrad cleared her throat with a slightly embarrassed expression, trying to attract their attention.
Unexpectedly … no one noticed her first sound (of course, Feng Bujue noticed it, but he deliberately didn't react).
"Hmm!" Conrad had to raise her voice again.
This time, Lightning Head and the others came back to their senses and stood awkwardly in front of the screen.
"Go … Colonel." Lightning Head saluted the colonel. As a relatively straightforward person, her face suddenly turned red in this situation.
The other three soldiers also had similar reactions.
Only Feng Bujue was still sitting there looking at the screen. After a few seconds, he pressed the pause button and leisurely turned around, "What? Who are you going to introduce me to this time? "
Conrad didn't directly answer the question, but looked at Lightning Head and the others, "You guys go out first."
"Yes." After Lightning Head responded, she trotted out of the office with the other three.
After the automatic door at the entrance closed, Conrad turned to look at the little boy next to her and asked, "Peter … Is it him?"
The little boy called Peter looked very white and cute. If it weren't for his hairstyle and clothes, the possibility of being mistaken for a girl was very high.
"Hmm …" Peter looked at Brother Bujue with his big watery eyes and muttered, "It's hard to say …"
"What?" Feng Bujue gave the child a dead fish eye, "Recognize your father?"
After asking this question that was both advantageous and irrelevant, Feng Bujue looked up at Conrad and asked an even more outrageous question, "This is your son?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm only twenty-five years old this year." Conrad replied with a sullen face.
"So what?" Unexpectedly, Feng Bujue threw back a rhetorical question, and the amount of information contained in this rhetorical question was very large.
"Mr. Feng, please stop before you go too far." Conrad replied with a sullen face, "If my boyfriend was here, you would have been beaten to the ground by now." She paused and said seriously, "Peter is our 'prophet'. He is an 'innate knowing leap' who already has knowledge from the moment he was born."
"F * ck …" Feng Bujue heard this and immediately complained, "Prophet? Then according to this setting … "He looked at Peter," Can you predict the future? "
"No," Peter replied. "I can only see some 'fragments of events that will happen in the future' at certain moments, but this' prediction 'is not launched according to my own wishes."
This little boy didn't speak like a child at all. Whether it was the tone or the wording, he was like an adult.
"Oh." Feng Bujue responded casually. "Then …" He said to Conrad again, "When you just pointed at me and asked 'is it him', what was it specifically referring to?"
"The savior." Before Conrad could speak, Peter responded directly, "About two years ago, I saw a fragment of the future. One day, a man with 'no past' will appear in front of us, and his appearance means the end of the war and the victory of our human race."
