Located in the most bustling street in Chiyoda Ward, Tokyo, this place offers all the trendiest products of the mont. The latest electronics, the hottest electronic gadgets, as well as various novel maid cafes, entertainnt venues, and other stores, are all situated on this street.
This is also known as Akihabara, the holy land of otaku culture in later generations.
Today, a decently positioned store here is undergoing renovation. From the outside, it appears to be a restaurant, which is quite common on this street. However, what catches people's attention is the sign of a giant yellow lightning mouse.
This image is already very familiar among girls.
Many of them own a Pikachu in their Pokédex because the cute image is very popular among girls.
Every passing girl would pause slightly, curious about what this store is all about.
"Excuse , sir, is this going to be a restaurant?" Finally, a girl gathered the courage to walk over and ask.
The worker, who was busy working, turned around and smiled, saying, "Yes, it's going to be a restaurant related to gas. We're working hard on the renovation. Maybe in five or six days, you'll be able to see the complete storefront."
After speaking, he casually took out a folded promotional paper from his briefcase and handed it to the girl.
"Take a look at this, it should clarify things for you."
Related to gas?
The girl took the promotional paper and politely said thank you. Soon, several of her friends joined her, curious to see the paper.
On the promotional paper was a large Pikachu.
"Pokémon Restaurant Grand Opening, Welco Everyone!"
So it's really a restaurant, and it's related to these little animals. This imdiately sparked discussions among the girls.
"What does Pokémon an? What does it have to do with Pikachu?"
"I heard from my male classmates in junior high that Pokémon seems to be a video ga they're playing."
"Huh? Do boys also have an interest in these little animals like Pikachu? Are they also playing Tamagochi?"
"No, it seems different, but anyway, let's co over and see in a few days. What do you think?"
"Okay, let's do it. Hey, these dishes look delicious."
A girl pointed to a yellow cake dessert in the front promotional image, which looked very tempting.
At this mont, the girl turned the promotional image over, and on the back were various Pokémon-related desserts, drinks, etc., all colorful and appealing, and many girls' eyes sparkled upon seeing them.
Especially when they noticed that these desserts and drinks were all reasonably priced.
A drink called "Thunderbolt Pikachu Juice" was only 300 yen per cup.
A yellow sparkling cake was only 500 yen. In a high-consumption environnt like Japan, this price was quite cheap.
"Wow, such cheap prices, we must co!"
"Wait, look at the instructions below."
At this point, a girl noticed a small inconspicuous text below.
"The above prices require custors to have a GB ga console and a Pokémon cartridge to enjoy. Each custor who enjoys the discount can bring one companion."
"Ah? We need to buy that GB thing to enjoy these discounted prices, but that's sothing only boys have."
"Um... actually, I have a GB and Pokémon ga."
At this mont, a girl in the center raised her hand.
"Huh huh? You have a GB? Why do you have a GB? Isn't that sothing only boys play with?"
The girl who raised her hand looked puzzled. "Why would you say that? I think it's fun."
"Whatever, dear, let's et in five days and have a feast together, okay?"
A group of girls imdiately turned flattering and flattering towards the girl who owned a GB, and then quickly they laughed and disappeared at the end of the street.
"Ah, it's so good to be young." The worker sighed and continued to supervise the progress of the renovation.
In addition to the Pokémon restaurant preparing to open here in Akihabara, two more similar restaurants have been opened in other areas of Tokyo where young people are more concentrated.
The promotion of the restaurants is almost the sa, as long as you have a GB ga console and a Pokémon cartridge, you can enjoy discounted consumption, and you can also bring one person.
Moreover, the promotional images also detailed occasional Pokémon-related activities in the restaurant. If completed, you will receive so additional rewards.
This kind of reward promotion for players quickly showed good results.
After selling more than 200,000 units in the first week, the sales plumted to less than 50,000 units in the second week, but quickly returned to 100,000 units in the third week.
After all, as long as you buy a Pokémon ga, you can eat cheap food in a designated restaurant. Not many people would refuse such a temptation.
In addition to this, there are also prize collection activities related to Pokémon.
If you capture a certain Pokémon within a limited ti, you can go to a designated place to receive an exclusive gift.
Finally, there is a super grand prize.
A gift from the dream world.
As long as you capture a Pokémon from the dream world within the specified ti, players can receive a one-year free ga reward from the first-party Star Electronic Entertainnt of GaStar, and it will be mailed to the winning players every month.
And this promotional effect seed to be imdiate.
Recently, Xiaotian found that his friends who own a GB have started playing Pokémon.
Obviously, they weren't interested before.
And this kind of ga actually requires so patience. Pokémon gas have never been very attractive at the beginning.
But after the brief boring period passed, the fun slowly erged.
"Tiānchōng, do you have a Dratini? I'll trade with you!"
"No! I want to exchange it for a gift!"
"Oh, Tiānchōng, you're the best! There's a girl I really like who wants a Dratini doll, but it's not for sale. Only with a Dratini Pokémon can you exchange for a gift. Please help this ti! I'll give you ten Pokémon in return!"
Tiānchōng's face was full of disdain. "Last ti you said you'd trade ten Pokémon with for the Eevee I trained hard, and then what did you give ? Ten pieces of junk. I won't trade with you again!"
