Game Development Giant

The final result of the negotiations was that Sony made concessions.

Sega got the copyright to their coveted "Donkey Kong", and Sony got the "Metroid". As for the compromises the two parties made with each other, Jester didn't know.

Although Jester was said to have been watching the whole process, in fact, when the discussion between the two parties was at its most intense, there was a silence between the two parties for fifteen minutes.

So much so that it made Jester, who was watching the fun, think there was something wrong with his phone equipment.

Even if you think about it with your buttocks, you will know that during this period of silence between the two parties, there must have been another negotiation that Jester didn't know about through other means, and there must have been concessions in interests between the two parties. Some compromises.

Otherwise, with Kutaragi Ken's egotistical character, how could he make concessions so easily?

But, overall.

The conference call between the three parties regarding carving up Nintendo was quite successful, and it did not take much time. In just over an hour, the three parties reached an intentional cooperation agreement. The rest is The three parties each went to negotiate with Nintendo.

If Nintendo still wants to charge sky-high prices.

hehe.

Then, in the industry, their game copyrights will be ignored.

Arakawa does not have as strong a character as his father-in-law, Hiroshi Yamauchi. If it were Hiroshi Yamauchi who is currently selling Nintendo's game business, then Jester believes that it is simply impossible for these three companies to join forces to carry out this so-called carve-up of Nintendo. talks.

Because Hiroshi Yamauchi was able to do things that would make both jade and stone disappear.

But Arakawa really couldn't do it.

This is the biggest difference between Arakawa Minoru and his father-in-law. The other is just a pure businessman. If he finds the right principle and follows his pure businessman character who only cares about gains and losses, he might really achieve great results. A great success, but he will never create an industry dynasty.

Maybe this time Minoru Arakawa leads Nintendo to sell out their game business. Carrying out strategic transformation will allow Nintendo to achieve greater achievements and make more money in the next few decades.

But, at least for now.

Nintendo, this great company that saved video games in the past and brought them back on the right track, has completely said goodbye to games at this time.

"It's still a little sad."

The thought of Nintendo completely launching the gaming industry. Hiroshi Yamauchi became a vegetative state. As the culprit of all this, Jester is still a little sad when he thinks about it. It is impossible not to be sad. Jester was a contemporary before he traveled through time.

I grew up playing Nintendo games.

In fact, most of the games he copied were originally Nintendo games that he played as a child. It can be said that Nintendo was his gaming inspiration.

But Jester has no regrets. Because Jester knows that Nintendo is too powerful and they have too many outstanding designers.

In the Hereafter, no matter who you ask in the industry. Which game company has the highest level of designers, then Jester can guarantee that you can know from the other party's answer how good the answerer is compared to the game company he works for.

Because all high-level designers and companies will say it without hesitation. Nintendo.

Think about it, owning a company like this and being forced out of the console industry is a shame and humiliation. There is also a leader with huge ambitions, extraordinary leadership skills, and almost unparalleled charisma in the industry. Under such circumstances, they endured the humiliation and worked hard to manage.

It’s hard to imagine what shocking things they can do in the future.

So what if there is no Super Mario? What if there is no Pokemon? Do you really think that Nintendo can't make a game series comparable to these?

That is of course impossible.

They are too scary and too powerful. Jester boasts that although he knows the future development process of games, who is responsible for the entire development process of video games? These are the people at Nintendo! They created the 2D era, and a super horse established all the game rules in the 2D game era.

In the 3D era, they relied on a Mario 64 and a Zelda to establish all the rules of 3D games.

They go ahead of everyone.

If such an enemy cannot completely kill them when they are at their weakest, it would be conniving and committing a crime against oneself.

"A good death."

Jester stood up from his seat and sighed deeply.

In fact, Jester thinks that future generations of players should thank him. Just imagine, if Nintendo makes another game in the future that is comparable to Mario and Pokemon, and gains a large number of players, you can really endure it. Mosaic picture? Can you tolerate eight languages?

Don't talk about feelings, say that if it's not a mosaic, I won't play it, and other nonsense.

With all due respect, any player with intelligence and conscience will never reject Pokemon in high definition 1080p, because this is not a matter of attitude, but a question of IQ. Any pm player who refuses high definition 1080p has a defective IQ.

It is because of the connivance and support of these people that Nintendo is unwilling to make progress.

In essence, although Nintendo has been making very playable games, and the screen is full of gameplay, these people who support Nintendo are not fundamentally different from the domestic immortals.

Think about it, how enterprising was Nintendo during the Hiroshi Yamauchi era?

In order to prevent future players from experiencing this pain.

Jester can only destroy the flower now, Nintendo must die, and what Nintendo will do in the future, the various settings and games that Nintendo will lead in the future game industry, will be completely done by himself.

After all, times have changed and Nintendo is outdated.

"I'm doing this for future players."

Jester just found a shameless excuse for what he did, and the more he thought about it, the more reasonable he felt.

Kyoto, Nintendo headquarters.

Minoru Arakawa, who had just taken over Nintendo, had been too exhausted during this period, and his pupils were filled with bloodshot eyes.

It is not an easy task for a huge enterprise to carry out strategic transformation. Now Minoru Arakawa understands how difficult it was for his father-in-law to lead Nintendo to great success in several transformations. He had always felt that it was My father-in-law's thoughts are too conservative.

Now it seems that may not be the case.

Because his father-in-law has already experienced this kind of difficulty, but since this path is his own choice.

Then you must go on.

But Minoru Arakawa's face doesn't look very good now. In addition to his pupils being bloodshot due to not having a good sleep for a long time, his face is also full of anger.

Because he had just received a document passed to him by his newly formed game splitting department. This document was too important, so it needed to be read by Minoru Arakawa personally. However, after Minoru Arakawa personally read it, his face changed. An anger emerged that could not be suppressed no matter what.

"It's too much to bully someone."

From clenched teeth, Arakawa Minoru spat out these four words.

What he just saw was a quotation list from the industry for the copyright of games that Nintendo was interested in. It was different from the previous quotation method with flowers and brocades. This time, except for Mars Entertainment, Sega, and Sony, other Those manufacturers have withdrawn their quotations.

In the list of acquisitions put forward by Mars Entertainment, Sega and Sony, there is not a single game that is the same as each other.

What does this mean?

This means that the three parties had reached a compromise with each other before the list was revealed.

In other words, they actually carved up Nintendo when Nintendo was not present. For Minoru Arakawa, who is familiar with East Asian history, such a scenario seems to have a prototype in history.

For example, the Three Kingdoms returned to Liao Dynasty.

Isn't it exactly the same as this? Of course, wasn’t this also the case with the partition of the Czech Republic before World War II?

What a shame and humiliation.

Arakawa Minoru's heart was bleeding. He really didn't expect that the scene would turn into such a situation. Incomparable anger burned in his heart: "This is a monopoly! This is a monopoly and it is illegal!" "

He roared.

But that doesn't help. Is the World Electronic Games Association a trust?

of course.

But what's the use?

Even if he has a fearless spirit of petitioning for the people and spends hundreds of millions of dollars in agency fees to fight this lawsuit with the other party, which lasted for several years, the lawsuit was won, and the World Electronics Association, a trust organization, was split up, but so what ?

The reason why each other is so domineering is because these three companies monopolize almost all home console platforms.

To be precise, after Nintendo launched the home console market, they dominated all home console platforms. As long as the three of them are willing to cooperate, what is the point of having the World Electronic Games Association?

Although Arakawa actually knew.

Whether it is Nakayama Hayao or Kutaragi Ken, these two people are both scheming people. The reason why they were willing to join forces with Jester before was just because the benefits to them outweighed the disadvantages.

However, these two people are not willing subjects.

In the future, as these two companies gradually grow, they will definitely be dissatisfied with Mars Entertainment taking the main interests.

Then, cracks in this organization will appear, and the so-called rules and regulations of the World Electronic Games Association will lack the value of existence. At that time, the World Electronic Games Association will fall apart. (To be continued...)
