サービス終了したゲームについて語る

404GAMERESET, pronounced Error Game Reset. It was a game that personified various "games," mainly from Sega, with each character having distinct light side and dark side versions, which was a unique feature. The second and third images are, so to speak, the light side Xevious and the dark side Xevious. It was occasionally a hot topic during announcements and releases... but the common opinion was that it was unclear who their target audience was 😅 They had major collaborations with big game companies like Namco and Capcom, but service was announced to end around the half-anniversary. When the service termination was announced, I was a bit curious, and thought, "Well, it's ending anyway," so I started playing (lol). And after playing, I had many questions like, "Why this STG system when collecting names of retro games?" and "What's the story really about...?" But it wasn't that bad, I guess 🙄 Characters you obtained would talk to you in the home screen, the dark side characters gradually showed their inner selves, and you could even decorate with figures of characters from old games... I actually enjoyed it quite a bit until it ended 🥰

You can still play it, but it will be service-closed in March next year 🥲 It started in the PC era, became available on smartphones, and is now reaching its 20th year before closing. It was a game with many memories. I'm truly sad. They seem to be making a memorial app, so I'll open that when I miss it after the service ends 🥲 It's truly a game packed with so many memories.

It wasn't a smartphone game, but a Flash browser game. It came out before Magireco. There were quite a few games back then, but this was the first one I ever spent money on. I really wanted Wedding Sayaka... Slightly before the service end announcement, quests with unusually low stamina requirements started appearing, and I thought it was going off track, then they announced the service end. I preferred poking characters on the home screen and making them fall off rather than the game itself.

The story was really good, but the management's business skills were terrible, which ruined the gameplay. I liked it so much that I even registered the character names in my dictionary. I really loved 40mP's opening song.

It was an adult game you could play on the web. I can't post pictures though ／(^o^)＼ I was so shocked when the service ended and I'm still feeling it. I wonder if my friends from back then are doing well 😢 I want to play it again!

The rhythm game part was undoubtedly the masterpiece of smartphone social game rhythm games. I want to play more...

I really liked Cat Busters. I kept playing it because I love cats. (※Developer: Happy Elements)

I absolutely adored Allen, the protagonist on the far right... I cried so much when I heard it was ending service. It starts as a boy-meets-girl story with the pink ponytail girl second from the right, but since it bears the Tales name, it's also a festival game where many Tales of characters appear. However, the Tales characters were guest characters, and in the end, it was a story about the fate, destiny, and adventures of these four. The scenario was so, so good... It was such a shame that the scenario felt rushed towards the end. It was unusual for the protagonist to be a recovery support type, wasn't it? I was happy that after service ended, I could at least read the story in another game, Tales of the Rays... Well, that Rays also ended service, though.

I loved the world-building above all else, and I adored the concept of receiving letters from 'someone,' even if I didn't know who they were. I played it bit by bit for about 5 years. However, it disappeared from Google Play due to the discontinuation of cloud services... I really regret not taking more screenshots.

I ended up joining without even realizing it lol Nice to meet you all m(_ _)m When it comes to memories of games that have ended service, it's definitely Sengoku Asuka Zero~ It's thanks to this game that I was able to use social media like I do now, and that I made online friends from the Asuka days who I'm still in touch with✨️ I could often manage even with relatively light spending, but in the latter half, it was more like a 'what the heck' attitude… I liked how they'd bring in rare characters, even just for novelty, and the overall vibe of the characters 😌 I'll leave behind the nostalgic title screen and screenshots of my two favorite characters 🥰 It's Muramasa-chan, my first SSR, and Ujii-chan, who I just liked for some reason 🥰
