Did you hide your sports memory in the Xiaobawang learning machine in those years?

　　After a sigh, facing the "GAME OVER" flashing on the "Big Belly" TV with a slight "burr", you slide your thumb, and the cursor on the screen does not move to the bottom sensitively.

Or "RESTART (restart)" or "PLAY AGAIN (again)".

　　In short, you just refuse.

Angrily mumbling about the "match" that I just lost, maybe football, basketball, or table tennis, tennis, or even rugby, swimming... As the picture entered, the "journey" restarted.

　　The screen may be just a few "paper"-like animated images, "panning" like dribbling and moving, stiffly raising and hitting the ball.

Sometimes the screen freezes or even crashes directly.

　　At this time, you have to press the "reset" button on the red and white machine around you, or simply turn off the power and restart it to continue the "revenge" plan.

　　If you have had it, all of this should be able to evoke your childhood memories; and as the memories gradually become yellowish "special effects", you should already be afraid of getting old.

　　And the "Xiaobawang" game consoles and "learning machines" that bring you all these memories, there is no way to make yourself fight another round or start over again-a number of media recently reported, Xiaobawang Cultural Development Co., Ltd. Being filed for bankruptcy reorganization means that the game console manufacturers that were popular in the 1990s will become a thing of the past.

　　Countless generations born in the 80s and 90s may have lost the most difficult "standard equipment" in their childhood, but at the same time it also instantly evoked the collective memory of a generation.

For many former "sports teenagers", sports games on red and white computers are the initial starting point of their careers.

　　In the Hot Blood series, although you are always on a rampage and "hand-to-hand" all over the court, you gradually become acquainted with the court and the basket above the semicircle in the "blood basketball".

So after returning to school, looking at the basket on the playground, he was ready to move.

　　In your repeated "running" in "hot-blooded football", the football you remember is a green field and a black and white ball.

When the ball really rolls to your feet in the future, you start to learn the way it was in the game, stiffly straighten your body, wave your arms, and start running.

　　You learned the rules of the tennis match in the "Indian Wells Tennis Masters" on the cassette.

So "tennis" becomes your first impression of "Indian Wells".

　　You press the handle in your hand indiscriminately in front of the picture that now seems so crude.

After a while, you know how to hit the ball to make the white dot fly as far as possible, and then get points.

It wasn't until later that you stepped onto the court to remember the beginning of the game. The word "BASEBALL" made up of small white balls means baseball.

　　In countless childhoods born in the 80s and 90s, there were no sports variety shows and no athletes to "out of the circle". Many people first came into contact with sports on a summer afternoon, beside their summer homework. In the crunching sound, in its world.

　　By the way, we prefer to call it a "learning machine" at that time.

But you never use it to learn.

Compared with the keyboard, you are more concerned about what card will be inserted into the top socket, and whether the extended handle on one side of the interface will be shared with you.

　　It's like at that time, you were doing your homework hard in your self-study class, just to be able to play tens of minutes with your friends on the playground after school and then go home.

　　Nowadays, in countless materials, one thing is mentioned: the original game consoles and learning machines are actually "references" to Japanese game consoles.

In other words, it is "cottage".

　　Perhaps many people will disdain these two words, do not understand, or even question why a group of people miss such "plagiarism".

But this is the purity of that time, that is the first joy of a generation.

　　It's like you holding an artificial leather basketball and throwing it into the ring strung with wires on the wall again and again; like you piled up small goals in school uniforms on the track and field, and made a worn-out football Kick in again and again.

　　Freedom, happiness, friendship... That is your first memory of sports.

　　Nowadays, being unable to run, running out of time, and fear of being injured have all become reasons for you to give up the love you had that year.

Until this ordinary Monday, you heard in a busy period that the words "Little Overlord" will also turn into dust.

　　So you can't help but try to remember those afternoons, those sweat and the playground.

The birthplace of sports enthusiasm that was "not tired of love" in the past, but now "not tired of love".

　　But maybe the more eager to remember, the more it means loss.

　　If you can't pick it up again, at least don't forget the purest love.
