It feels good to eat melon for a while, and it will always feel good to eat melon all the time! This is "Weekly Travel and Eat" hosted by Shen Shen Niang. A new week is here again, and Shen Shen Niang will take you to recall what melons in the gaming circle are worth eating in the past week!
1. The inventor of Konami’s secret technique “Up, Up, Down, Left, Right, and Left BA” passed away.
On February 26, veteran Konami employee Masahiro Inoue posted an obituary on social platforms today. He said that Hashimoto Kazuhisa, the inventor of "Up, Up, Down, Left, and Right BA" (Konami's secret technique), passed away in 2020. Passed away at 21:00 on February 25.
In the 1980s, Konami took advantage of the momentum of the arcade to port "Space Cruiser" to the NES. This task fell on Hashimoto Kazuhisa. However, during debugging, he found that he could not pass the level with his own skills, so he implanted a short password into the program. He only needed to input "up, up, down, left, right, left, left, and right BA" with the handle to unlock all weapons and equipment. But in the end he forgot to remove the secret technique from the game when he completed the test, and a combination of circumstances led to an achievement that will be passed down to future generations.
Tucao from Deep Girl:
Most Chinese players know this secret skill from "Contra". This secret skill can increase the character's number of lives from 3 to 30. It's a pity that there are not 30 lives in life. I wish this old man all the best in heaven.
2. GOG will support refunds within 30 days of purchase, regardless of whether it has been downloaded, launched or played

3. The mobile game “Plants vs. Zombies 3” is now available in the Philippines, turning into a cash-generating card-drawing game.
The company that created the classic side-scrolling tower defense game "Plants vs. Zombies" series has a new move. On February 28, they launched the new series "Plants vs. Zombies 3" in the Philippines for iOS and Android versions. This game uses 3D graphics and the original tower defense gameplay of the series.
Although it retains the linear tower defense mechanism of the first two games, "Plants vs. Zombies 3" still makes some changes. For example, there is no need to manually place "sun flowers" in this game, instead energy points are automatically restored according to time. In addition, as a free-to-play mobile game with paid props, this game has a card drawing mechanism. Players can draw new plants and seeds, and the seeds can be used to upgrade corresponding plants.
Tucao from Deep Girl:
"Plants vs. Zombies" is really one of those rare games that can keep deteriorating for ten years.
4. "FIFA" professional players complain: EA lets us decide the outcome by guessing the game
On March 1, Shaun Galea broke the news on Twitter: In a "FIFA" game held by EA, because they could not find a way to invite their opponents to join the EA qualifying competition before the game started, they had to use guessing games. Method decided the game and unfortunately, Shaun Galea lost. In a tweet that he has since deleted, he said that all the efforts in the first stage were in vain because of the subsequent server downtime – the second stage of the game was lost due to guessing, and was beaten from 2-0 to 2-3. .
Tucao from Deep Girl:
Any ridiculous news seems to become much more reasonable once "EA" appears.
5. The trial version of "Final Fantasy 7 Remake" is now available and players can download it for free.
On March 2, the PSN Hong Kong server store has now launched the trial version of "Final Fantasy 7 Remake". In this trial version, you can play the "No. 1 Magic Reactor Detonation Operation" at the beginning of the game. Game progress cannot be carried over to the official version.

The shorter the news, the bigger the story.
