Super Game Empire

Yang Yun deliberately revealed the news of renegotiation because he knew that Sega would never be willing to miss the ownership of Tetris last time.

GameBoy sold 8 million sets in North America in three months, Tetris sold 2 million copies, and other various game cards sold tens of millions, which can be said to be a hit. Sega was full of envy, jealousy and hatred for Nintendo's sales.

But there is nothing we can do.

After half a year of brewing and fermenting, the Christmas holiday in 1989 will surely become Nintendo's most valued sales season. At that time, FC and GameBoy will fly together, plus the two popular Gemini games, Tetris and Super Mary,

It will definitely set off a sales frenzy again.

Look at Sega. Although their Genesis 16-bit computers have much stronger performance than Nintendo's 8-bit FC, the total sales volume has not reached 10 million units. In addition, the palm gameGear is still under development, so I can only watch Nintendo's GameBoy

If you are riding the world, you will be terrified of the North American Christmas holiday this year, Sega will definitely fall behind Nintendo, the old rival.

When Nagano heard that Yang Yun and Nintendo would re-discuss Tetris' patent rights, his heart beat wildly, trying to restrain his emotions, and asked tentatively: "Mr. Yang, what aspects will you and Nintendo... discuss?

”

Yang Yun frowned and said lightly: "I'm not sure, the specific situation should be discussed in person. Nintendo just proposed an invitation to discuss with us, and my Soviet partner was responsible for this matter. But I'm not afraid to tell you, Nagano-jun, Nintendo should be very

Be optimistic about this game, they have paid us 2 million copies, and I think the Christmas holiday is coming, and they will need more.”

Nagano tried hard to control the calmness of his facial muscles, held the table, and said gritting his teeth: "Mr. Yang, I understand, Sega will not miss this opportunity again. Thank you!"

Yang Yun almost laughed out of internal injuries. It seems that Sega, a child who is more miserable than a child, is following him again with pain. He has to think about how to get the best benefits.

I just don’t know if he can get what he has always dreamed of when he re-negotiated with Nintendo this time? Yang Yun even looked forward to going to the United States.

To change the topic, it is similar to the usual Japanese tea ceremony and Nagano and chatting about industry information. Three Japanese, plus Yang Yunhe, translated, and five people sat cross-legged in the tea art room, relaxing and chatting.

Nagano personally performed tea art. Yang Yun looked at his elegant movements and mentioned the latest game trends in the industry and asked: "Nagano, what type of game is the most popular in Japan now? You Japanese game developers, they are usually

What information can I get inspiration from?”

Nagano is very proud: "Happy work is praised in Japan. Inspiration may be just a moment, a chat, a TV message, a baseball game, a debate, and a movie can all be the source of inspiration. For example, recently

The most popular news in Japan is that NHK TV is preparing to film the Three Kingdoms, and Asahi TV has made the special issue of the 500th episode of General Fufang. In addition, KOEI's Nobunaga's ambition to the Warring States Period has just been launched, and it has been sold in Japan, which has started

Recalling the Warring States Period in China, revisiting the wave of the legend of the shogunate.”

Inoue Yusuo and Matsumoto Yoshino laughed and even echoed the theme song of General Fu Fang's TV series. It was very appropriate. They have watched hundreds of episodes of TV in Japan, but China has only stopped in the past few months.

The habit of chasing the update.

Because Nagano talks about these in a joking tone, some Japanese words are not convenient to translate into English, so there are many Japanese words interspersed in the middle, only the three of them understand them, while Yang Yun has only a slight understanding.

Yang Yun only understood part of it, but a few keywords made his ears stand up instantly: "Naoye Jun, the Three Kingdoms, General of the Beast, I don't understand these, and the KOEI you mentioned, but in Chinese, it is translated as Glory.

Japanese gaming company of Co., Ltd.?"

The translator on the side also had a headache. Yang Yun and Nagao usually talked in English and Chinese. The communication was really not smooth, so I remember to ask her this translator, but every time the questions they asked made her feel unable to answer.

The passage Nagano just said contains too much information. First, NHK TV is preparing to shoot a live version of the Three Kingdoms. This is an explosive news, because Japan is a small area of ​​tiny worshipping the Three Kingdoms culture, but it is really impossible to complete it.

The big scene was at most in 1983. It was almost impossible to make a set of Three Kingdoms puppet dramas, and asked them to film the Battle of Red Cliffs, and the big scene of tens of thousands of people hedging.

Second, Asahi TV made a special issue of the 500th episode of the 500th episode of the 500th general of the Edo Shogunate, Tokugawa Yoshizo, who was the eighth-generation general of the Edo Shogunate, visited privately to combat crime, eradicate evil forces, and persuade good and punish evil.

The heroic story means that the mainstream Japanese society is collectively nostalgic, and the shogunate story has once again become hot discussion. It is natural for NHK TV to hype the Three Kingdoms TV series.

Finally, KOEI's hot-selling Nobunaga's Ambition Game, although it is an important company in the game console industry with Nagano and Yang Yun, the KOEI company is far less famous than those of Konami Korami, Capcom, and the glorious early productions.

The game has almost never been spread to mainland China, so Yang Yun asked if it was Glorious Co., Ltd., and the translation was not sure. She didn't see the name of KOEI's Chinese translation.

The translator could only use her own poor Japanese cultural knowledge to explain the above content intermittently to Yang Yun, and immediately made Yang Yun think.

If Nye didn't say this, Yang Yun might have neglected this matter. Now he feels more and more glad that he feels more and more sad. He is shocked and sweats all over. He secretly wipes the sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand, sighing in his heart that it's so dangerous.

He missed the game "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and would definitely regret it for the rest of his life in the future.

KOEI Koei Co., Ltd. was mainly engaged in simulation games in the early days. Its historical trilogy, Nobunaga's Ambition, the Three Kingdoms, and Genghis Khan. These three models are based on a real historical background and are exquisitely crafted until later generations.

The epic masterpiece has made countless historical simulation game enthusiasts intoxicated, not only affecting the entire Japanese idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor, martial arts, loyalty and filial piety, but even overseas Chinese are more familiar with the Three Kingdoms from Japanese games.

, not the mainland version of TV series and novels.

However, in the domestic game console market in China, it was not until the PC era that these glorious computer games were exposed to Chinese game enthusiasts. Later, Taige made ambitions, the Age of Discovery, the Three Kingdoms War, the True Unparalleled Three Kingdoms, Taige

There are so many classic games, all from this KOEI Glory Company. Only then did everyone know that Glory Company was so powerful.

It is precisely because of its strength on the PC side that in this weak FC era, Yang Yun almost forgot the founder of these classic games, and he even forgot that the Three Kingdoms is the masterpiece of Glory Company.

In fact, in 1983, Nobunaga's ambition was shocked by the game industry just after it was produced. In 1985, the Three Kingdoms and Genghis Khan were popular in the Far East. In 1988, Nobunaga's ambition was transplanted to Nintendo's red and white machine, and set off another sales boom. KOEI

Glory Company has become the leader in historical simulation games in the gaming industry.

At this time, by the end of 1989, all three games have been made, and they are more popular in the Japanese and overseas Chinese circles. If Yang Yun wants to be the first, it will definitely be too late, but he still has a chance, that is, the spread of the game

Breadth, and subsequent versions.

For example, the game Nobunaga Nobunaga Ambition has produced 13 generations in total, but the first three generations have extremely simple game production and artwork. It is very beautiful to use RPG games run on Nintendo FC home 8-bit consoles.

? From Yang Yun's perspective, it would be a terrible sight! So although the previous three generations, although Guangrong Company was produced 6 years ahead of schedule, they can almost be said to be a failed work and can only play a role in accumulating technology.

Until 1990, Nobunaga's Ambition developed the fourth generation, transplanted to the PC terminal, adding hundreds of new generals, and the various parameter settings were more reasonable. Artists produced qualitative changes in development, and there were also core games.

Upgrade the system and upgrade to a certain level to unlock and manufacture various advanced buildings and arms, greatly improving the playability of the game, and thus achieving great success.

Yang Yun has now woken up in time and it is probably too late to start producing Nobunaga's ambitions, but the Three Kingdoms, he must take advantage of the time when the Glorious Company has not yet had time to soar to the sky to win the Chinese people's own Three Kingdoms game!

Still speaking, Yang Yun picked up the teacup and said a few gossips, let go of the topic just now, and then started talking about baseball and women. In the joyful chat atmosphere, time flew by.

It was almost time for dinner, Nagano took the opportunity to invite Yang Yun to have authentic Japanese cuisine. Yang Yun turned around and found that Yan Yusuo Inoue and Yoshino Matsumoto were lit and eager to try. He smiled and did not disappoint everyone's pleasure. He agreed.

Go down.

The group was about to go to the most famous Japanese cuisine Hokkaido restaurant in Beijing. Jiang Shaoyun rushed over with anxiety and called Yang Yun outside the Sega building.

"Mr. Yang, Director Duan suffered a heart attack and was sent to the hospital!"

Yang Yun was shocked: "Let's talk slower, what's going on?"
