As always, Sakaki go to Dekapon Electronics Very early!. Why? Because today marked the highly anticipated release of three new ZEPS gas! He couldn't wait to spend his entire weekend playing them. His boss, Toki-san, had also given him a special task: buy four copies of each ga for the ZEPS rental section in Bakudan Arcade. Of course, Sakaki was more than happy to oblige—especially since Toki had even thrown in a small bonus.
Thinking he'd beat everyone to the front of the line, Sakaki arrived at 5:00 AM, well ahead of the store's 8:30 AM opening. But to his shock, there were already people ahead of him—so even lying on the ground with pillows, clearly having camped out overnight!
"What the hell?! How am I not the first as usual!?" he muttered, exasperated. But he quickly sighed in acceptance. ZEPS gas always sold out in re hours, and if anything, this just proved how popular they had beco. He simply had to endure the wait.
As the hours passed, the anticipation in the air grew thick. Then, at exactly 8:30 AM, the doors of Dekapon Electronics swung open, and the crowd surged forward. Sakaki grinned as his turn ca up. He wasted no ti in purchasing five complete sets of the new ZEPS gas, quickly paying before bolting towards Bakudan Arcade to hand over four sets to Toki.
"Here, Toki-san! Four of each ga!" he said, panting slightly from his sprint.
Toki took the gas with a knowing grin. "Good work, boy. These are gonna fly off the shelves."
With that done, Sakaki wasted no ti. With his own set of gas safely in his bag, he dashed back ho, his excitent reaching its peak. Today was going to be a legendary gaming session.
Once inside his room, he eagerly unboxed the gas. As expected, each one ca with four key items: the ga cartridge, a detailed guidebook, the latest issue of ZEPS Volu 4, and a Black Gray Z-Card. Sakaki always made it a habit to inhale the fresh scent of a new guidebook before flipping through its pages. He then glanced at the ZEPS magazine, which now had an updated list featuring the three newly released titles.
Finally, his eyes landed on the Z-Card. These cards always contained cryptic ssages hinting at hidden secrets or easter eggs within the ga. This one read:
"You might see fighting, but I will not see you."
Sakaki furrowed his brows. "Hmm? Cryptic as always, Zabo-man, my bro." A wide grin spread across his face. He couldn't wait to uncover the secrets hidden in these gas. Would Zabo-man play a major role in them, or just be a minor cao?
Without further hesitation, he grabbed his first ga—Ninja Gaiden—and inserted the cartridge into his ZEPS console.
The opening cinematic played:
A red ninja and a gray ninja faced off in a vast grass field. The tension between them was palpable. In an instant, both warriors lunged at each other, swords clashing in a brilliant spark of steel. Then—one fatal strike! The red ninja staggered and fell to the ground.
The screen faded to black, and then a solemn narration began:
Ryu (voiceover): "With whom did Father have a duel and lose? For what reason did he fight and die? Even I don't know for sure."
The scene shifted to Ryu Hayabusa holding a letter, its contents displayed on-screen:
"Ryu, I am on my way to a life-or-death duel. If it is destiny that I do not return, you are to take the Dragon Sword of the Hayabusa family and go to Arica. Find the archaeologist, Walter Smith. Be brave, my son."
Cut to Ryu, now wearing his mask, determination burning in his eyes.
Ryu: "I will get my revenge!"
Sakaki's eyes widened in amazent. "Whoa! This is so cool!"
Then, the gaplay began.
