>>56880507>Q: Since this interview is for Famitsu, I'd like to ask a few questions about other video games as well. Matsuda-san, I heard that you bought a gaming PC in order to play FPS games, what made you do that?Matsuda: It was ultimately a result of me getting into video game streams as an adult. Getting infected with the Corona virus made me feel really lonely, like I had been cut off from the rest of the world. However, by pure chance I happened to stumble upon a video game livestream, and it gave me a real sense of relief to see so many people enjoying the same thing at the same time. The game that was being streamed was an FPS game, which was the first time I learned you could actually play games on a PC, and that experience inspired me to buy a PC so I could play games myself as well.
>Q: It's really impressive how quick you are to take action. How about you, Morita-san, do you play any video games besides Pokémon?Morita: I do indeed play a lot of Pokémon, but I'm also a big fan of the Animal Forest series, and I like rhythm games as well. I like games with a nice and relaxing atmosphere in general (laughs).
>Q: Do the members of Sakurazaka46 ever play games or talk about games together?Matsuda: Not video games, but we often used to play games like Werewolf or Wordwolf together.
>Q: Who's the best at those?Matsuda: I think we're all pretty terrible... (laughs)
Morita: Wasn't Inoue pretty good?
Matsuda: She was really good at asking questions, but always ended up losing anyway (laughs).
Morita: I've never played any games with them, but I occasionally talk about Pokémon with third generation members Shizuki Yamashita-chan and Reina Odakura-chan. I once noticed they were wearing Nuoh keychains, so I took that as an opportunity to strike up a conversation.
>Q: So if any of the Sakurazaka46 juniors are wearing some kind of Pokémon merch, you might reach out to them? (laughs)Morita: I'll come over to talk if I see any, yeah (laughs).
