Game Development Giant

Dreambox has also been very successful in Europe. There is a lot of cultural identity between Europe and North America. Although Nintendo's NES was released several months earlier, in terms of influence, it is still far from being comparable to Mars Entertainment. .

It has only been on sale for one month, and in terms of game console sales, it has equaled Nintendo's performance in the past three months.

Among them, the hot sales of "Balotelli's Adventures" and "Fire Emblem" are indispensable, and Nintendo, in addition to constantly launching games bundled with game consoles for discounts, can't find any What other better way? After all, if you want to sell game consoles, you must first have games worth buying for players.

In November, "Junior" also entered the final work, and the initial testing gradually began. Nintendo's "Metroid" was developed some time earlier than "Junior", and it is said that it is only a mobile game. AT games are far less rich in content and length than RPG games, but for some unknown reason, no accurate news has been conveyed yet as "Jet Heavy" is about to reach release specifications.

According to the results of Jester's discussions with the company, it may not be that Nintendo is afraid of itself because of the failure of several previous head-on confrontations, but that it wants to have an explosion during the Christmas period. After all, Christmas is the most important shopping season for European and American countries.

Jester also personally went to Santa Monica to see Sid Meier's studio and experience his completed Age of Discovery game. Overall, it's pretty good, because Jester has played countless sailing-type games. Compared with those games of later generations, this game has no innovation even in terms of gameplay and system.

but. This is not an era that has been played badly by people in later generations, but a pioneering work. As far as pioneering work is concerned, although in Jester's opinion, there are still many things that can be improved, he also thought of Sid Meier. He simply couldn't say much about his character, because judging from this era. This game is already well done.

A month ago, the marketing department began to promote Jester's new game in various media. Members of the development team also participated in interviews with certain game magazines or programs from time to time, revealing some details of the new game, and also There will be some news that is said to be leaked from the inside and will be published in the newspapers. In fact, it is not only Sid Meier's new game that is ready to be released around Christmas, Anei's Shino's new game is also planned to be released around Christmas. This time, Anei will release both the p version and the Dreambox version at the same time. However, at Jester's request, the p version will be delayed by about two to three months.

Essentially, it doesn't matter even if Anrong doesn't delay the release of the p version. After all, slg games are only a niche. Although the people who like to play them are relatively die-hard, the overall number is still relatively small compared to the entire player group.

However, for Jester, Anei’s Japanese history strategy game is one of the few tools he can use to expand Dreambox’s share in Japan. This is what he really wants to delay Anei’s delay. The reason for releasing the p version. After all, this is not the future, and there are still a large number of Japanese who use p to play games.

Anrong has now gradually discovered the vastness of the North American market. Especially after seeing the huge amount of dollars earned by several Mars Entertainment games in the North American market, coupled with the fact that Capcom has made a fortune by switching to the camp. They are also extremely jealous, so while they did not give up developing Japanese historical games, they also began to produce European historical SLG games.

Jester only asked about this information, and Anrong replied that it is a game based on the Napoleonic era, similar to Shino, but the background is changed to Europe after the French Revolution. Jester likes to play it very much. An Rong's games, in later generations, he was a fan of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms series. The Shino series is also a must-play, but he has never played an SLG game with the same style of European history.

As for P Club’s four cute characters, Europa Universalis, etc., they are completely different types, and P Club’s games are too tiring. Jester doesn’t like them very much. Instead, An Rong’s simple SLG makes him feel fun. Hengsheng.

From what Jester knows about the history of Anrong, he vaguely remembers that after joining Nintendo's third-party alliance, they only made one similar game for the European and American markets, but that game was relatively niche. Jester I’ve never played it, but judging from the fact that Anrong only came out once and then didn’t continue it, maybe the results weren’t very good.

However, it is the other party's business to decide what games they make. As long as the game An Rong makes is excellent, he will allow the other party to sell it on Dreambox.

In the eyes of the outside world, Jester is a very strange person. As the youngest billionaire in the US stock market, but apart from developing games, he cannot find any personal hobbies. The most recent news about his hobbies may be the news that when he went to London, he went to White Hart Lane with his girlfriend to watch the Manchester United game.

However, this is more considered to be that he accompanied his girlfriend to watch the game, not that he liked to watch it. You know, basically everyone is a football fan, and few British people are like Mrs. Thatcher. I hate the sport of football.

White Hart Lane is the home stadium of the London team Tottenham Hotspur, and Jester’s girlfriend grew up in the West End of London.

In addition, other media have almost no photos of Jester that clearly reveal his interest. Moreover, Jester is a person who does not like to interact with others and rarely attends any social events. No matter what the organizer invites to the event, he never even accepts interviews from the media.

The outside world's understanding of Jester is like a person who likes to hide in his own castle, control everything and create the world.

The casting work for "Avengers" has basically ended. Except for the selection of the female lead, that is, the young girl who is proficient in Chinese boxing and the sister of the male protagonist's kidnapped wife, there is some controversy. Jester is listening After talking about it, he didn't want to get involved, but he was watching a French movie with Claudia who came to the United States at the time, called "First Kiss". The heroine was a woman whom Jester was familiar with before his rebirth, known as the Rose of France. Sophie Marceau, Jester has also heard of this film, but he was not a movie fan in his previous life, and this film is too old, so he has not watched it.

If Claudia had not dragged him to watch it this time, he might not have watched such a movie.

At that time, while Jester was watching the movie at home, he met with the person in charge of the movie at MGM. After all, MGM's recent economic situation was not very good, and Mars Entertainment funded 60% of the movie. , although Jester also agreed to let the film company make its own decisions about the film, but for the largest investor, it is also necessary to understand every aspect of the film's progress.

When Jester heard that the role of the female lead had not yet been decided, it was also at this time that he just pointed at Sophie Marceau on the video tape and said, I think this is about the same age, and she is also very beautiful, she should be able to do it. Bar.

The people from MGM also looked at it carefully for a while and thought it was quite suitable, so they agreed to get in touch with it.

Just a few days ago, Jester received a call from MGM. After all, he recommended the person at the time. Whether it was successful or not, he needed to inform Jester. As a result, the negotiation went very smoothly. Last year, he came from France. Sophie Marceau, the independent Gaumont company, also needs to replace the debt of one million francs as soon as possible, so she is very excited about the invitation from MGM, whose price is obviously higher than that of European film companies. interest.

Although it was a commercial movie that she had always disdained.

Jester just smiled and put it aside, but when he was bored, he still had a sense of accomplishment when he thought about it. After all, he was also the dream lover in the minds of countless men from all over the world in the future. I just didn’t know about this Frenchman. If Rose arrives in Hollywood ten years early, can it change her original destiny in history?

Jester has little interest in this. In fact, Jester is not very interested in Sophie Marceau, who is now messing around with the Polish guy.

The review of "Juggernaut" was also published in the latest issue of "Game" magazine. Although the review was as high as ever, in terms of score, they only gave a very conservative evaluation of 38 points. Compared to the previous 41 points for Jester's "Fire Emblem" and the 39 points for Nintendo's "The Legend of Zelda", this score is not too high.

In fact, in Jester's mind, he is not too satisfied with the development of "Heavy Soldiers" this time. It may be because the previous "Fire Emblem" had such a profound impact on the development team. During the development process of "Soldiers", most of the staff were still unable to get rid of the brilliant success of the previous game. Although the game produced was remarkable, it was not the same as when "Fire Emblem" came out. It's incomparable in terms of shock value.
