thinking about it...
My age forty-five. He is the head of a family and the father of two children. At this age, I can only become mature now, but there is still a young me inside of me. This young self is revealed through entertainment (game). I have been playing for a long time. Probably close to 40 years.
I am still playing, and now my son and daughter, as well as my wife, play. Of course what kind of entertainment? What a light entertainment? Is it heavy entertainment? There is a large variation in which device is used. From this point of view, all three members of the family, except for the wife, are deeply absorbed in heavy entertainment.
On weekends, my son falls into LOL and doesn't leave the room. The rice is also on the verge of having to be delivered to the room. He wears headphones, stirs his wide monitor vertically with a keyboard and mouse, and seems to occasionally swear words from his mouth. Anyway, the appearance of his son on the weekend is a typical unemployment. However, the eyes are clearer and brighter than ever. Concentration is also the best.
My daughter is multiplayer. First, turn on the switch to start <Animal Forest>. I put my smartphone on the side and enjoy watching live broadcasts. On the other side of the pad, I have a Netflix drama on. Will this be the focus? If you ask, you can do everything at the same time. It is a capable person.
On the weekends, I enjoy 2-3 hours of entertainment. The computer was stolen by his son, so he turns on the PlayStation 4 in the living room. Mainly for difficult and enthusiastic entertainment. It is an entertainment of cutting, hitting and killing with a knife. Stress is relieved. However, because it is a very difficult entertainment, stress can build up. Still, I enjoy this time. I work hard as if I became a child.
The day I listened to 82" TV after moving in August 2017
3 years ago...
As I moved, I invested a lot of money to put an 82-inch TV in my living room. It was purely because of the desire to play entertainment on the big screen. And after the driver came and installed the TV, the first thing I turned on was the entertainment called Horizon Zero Dawn. The entertainment that was conducted at “65” and the entertainment conducted at 82” had a different sense of immersion. In particular, after wearing a headset and immersed in entertainment, hours passed by. The wife was staring with strange eyes.
The first entertainment I remember was when I was in the first grade of elementary school, going to a friend's house and producing Coca-Cola at a friend's factory. It's a portable LCD entertainment device that's gone now, but when I went to Denden Town in Osaka a few years ago, I was selling used products, so I really wanted to buy it. Of course, the price was ridiculously expensive.
This entertainment! This was the beginning of Nintendo Mario!!!
I looked it up on the Internet and it was Nintendo's Mario Bros. I thought it was a Coca-Cola factory at the time.
This pastime was so much fun that I remember having baked and boiled my dad and mom when I came home. And I buy two entertainment machines. When Superman flew, it was a game of catching a thief coming out of a can and a game where Godzilla came out and beating a monster.
Beyond the entertainment I had at home, I started to visit the local arcade one day. It was probably around the second and third grades. It was a period of time when two games were precious (50 won for the first edition) with 100 won per day, immersed in entertainment such as raccoon, Zebius, and Gallag. Then one day, when I was coming out from the game room door, I met my mother and got scolded, and it seems that I haven't been to the game room for a while.
When I was in the fifth grade of elementary school, thanks to my close friends, I started walking in and out of the arcade again, and the entertainment I enjoyed at that time was Ssangyong (Double Dragon) and Wonder Boy 2. Even now, this entertainment can be ending with one coin.

<Street Fighter 2>, which drew the mark of entertainment companies around the world, was released during the second period. As if breaking a dojo, I played hard with my friends, and on weekends, wandering around the town burned a decisive battle. At the time, this entertainment was very popular. When it comes to entertainment, there were more than 10 spectators. And there were many guys waiting for the next turn, stacking coins in front of the game console. Sometimes, the guys who lost the game were fighting in real life. Of course, I wasn't very good at it. I think it was about medium water.
The screen is exciting even now <Street Fighter 2>
During this middle school period, some of my friends started to own computers. I remember leaving school and going to their houses and watching my friend's entertainment for hours. I couldn't do it myself, but I fell into the world of adventure by memorizing the path and interpreting English hard. Adventure games that were really fun at the time were entertainment such as <Indiana Jones>, <The Secret of the Monkey Island> <LOOM>. Of course, <Prince of Persia> cannot be omitted. I remember eagerly looking for computer magazines, memorizing the strategies in the magazines, and telling my friends. I wanted a computer so much, but it was so expensive that I didn't dare to ask for it.
The really famous <Prince of Persia 1>
Lucas Arts' <Indianie Jones>
<LOOM> and <The Secret of Monkey Island> that trembles just by thinking about it
