Kaz kept a leisurely look out upon the sky. High atop his airship (constructed before the Blue Ocean consumed the last of the landmasses) he and his crew were free to look for software, floating along the air currents.
"Cap'n Hirai!" the cry went out from Kojima in the crow's nest. "Games off the starboard bow! Real ones, not non-games!"
The Captain stoop up as quickly as his zipper-and-belted pegleg allowed. I need to talk to ship doctor Nomura sometime, he thought as he limped over to the airship's side. The cool wind blasted his hair and he adjusted his cyber-goggles and zoomed in. A massive lode of real games. Not mini-games, not non-games, not HOME, actual games. Such a bounty, almost unheard of in these days.
"Mayhaps these are games ol' Cap'n Kim forgot they already had!" cackled Hirai, prompting guffaws and hollering from his crew. "Alright, you salty wagglers, pull us in close, prepare the moneyhats!"
His cyber-goggles suddenly caught a strange apparition. It was Wada, the old dog... and he was floating in an Xbox 360 coffin, waving frantically. Suddenly, Kojima cried out again. "CAP'N HIRAI! SOMETHIN' RIGHT ABOVE US!"
Kaz looked up in horror as he heard the bellow. The Great Wiinged Whale, Iwata, creator of the Blue Ocean. It was bearing right down on the games. It had devoured almost all the games left on the planet, and now it was coming for these.
"Full throttle on the propellers, steam engines at max!" he cried, "Get us out of range! That bastard took me leg, he won't get me ship!"
But it was too late. Iwata's mighty mouth opened, devoured the games, and blasted down through the clouds. The shock sent massive winds crashing against the airship, and it began to tilt. Men flew off the side of the ship, and fell miles down into the Blue Ocean. Kaz held on for dear life as the ship shook... and slowly settled back into position.
"Cap'n, we've lost 10 hands!"
Hirai frowned. If Iwata wanted to, he could have destroyed them all. He slowly settled back into his seat, and called out to the navigator. "Alright, ye naughty dog... let's see if we can find any party games to the nor-nor-east."
