Chapter 1426: The Order of the Phoenix is not to be feared .PNG
"The results are remarkable. "Satoshi Iwata is looking at the information on the Internet at this moment.
Originally, he didn't use the Internet much, but because of the atmosphere brought by DC, the Internet seems to have become a hot topic in the game industry now.
However, after analysis, Nintendo believes that the development of related industries is lagging behind and is not worth getting involved in, so their network function is to refer to Sony's side, and it does not provide a more complete broadband network like DC-P.
Satoshi Iwata himself actually felt that this was a bit inappropriate, but Nintendo's top management felt that it was still the Order of the Phoenix.
Don't look at Nintendo as conservative now, but in fact, Nintendo was one of the first manufacturers to try "online games", and it was a pioneer like Sega.
Early on, they envisioned the SFC satellite networking program, and in 1995, they also made an attempt to network their home gaming platform β only to see that their BS satellite communications service ended up losing billions of yen.
The successive setbacks have led to a general consensus among Nintendo's top management that "the period of online game popularity is still early".
But this is no longer the case.
The cost of broadband networks is much lower than that of satellite networks, and how to say it......
"This is the online game".
This was the idea that Satoshi Iwata had when he first saw the game Hero's Tracks.
"Hero's Tracks" is a very remarkable game, this game offers a very novel concept of "pure online game", and they also unification most other game manufacturers for the first time, and the "character library" copyright is an innovation.
However, "Hero Tracks" is popular, and the biggest loss is Kadokawa, because the predecessor of this game is Kadokawa All-Stars.
However, Kadokawa itself also has part of the copyright of this game, and they have also made a lot of money themselves, which is not a loss.
And more importantly, this game is not popular in the mud, for Kadokawa, this game has promoted Kadokawa's works and characters overseas, which has already achieved their strategic goal.
- Of course, if this game is a big hit, Iwata Satoshi has no doubt that Kadokawa will personally fight for the rights to this game.
Well, maybe not, because the Chiba family, one of Kadokawa's major shareholders, seems to be very close to the Amami family......
This game became a big mess, but the game manufacturers that imitated the hero's trajectory lost a lot later.
ββThe number of Internet players in these years is limited, and the Matthew effect in the game industry is obvious, and blindly following the trend is basically hopeless.
This situation also surprised Iwata Satoshi, because all the followers couldn't keep up with the rhythm of the game, and there was really only one such game.
On the contrary, many stand-alone game manufacturers have taken a fancy to the "network download package" model pioneered by Company A, and DLC has become a content that many manufacturers are keen to produce, especially in the lighthouse country - because credit card consumption there is more developed.
Satoshi Iwata believes that NGC's next-generation mainframe should be a good choice if it can provide a complete network environment.
However......
People are not as good as the sky.
At this time, the "E-Japan" program was launched, and the number of Internet users almost doubled.
At that time, NGC had already been finalized and could not change it, although it was okay to force it, but the other high-level executives felt that the network was still a little too early, so they still chose to wait and see.
But now it seems that the Internet is also a double-edged sword.
-- This can be seen from the current Internet public opinion.
Nintendo's primary target is Sony, so they will "forgive" Capcom, and the blue hedgehog is the product of Sega's internal struggle for power, which is a surprise for Nintendo.
Originally, this matter was not a big blow to the Order of the Phoenix, but because of the influence of the Internet, players began to spread relevant news on the Internet, and in just half a day, there was a lot of public opinion about the Order of the Phoenix.
That's a good thing.
Of course, the specific things are still left to the data, and Nintendo is also paying attention to the situation on the Order of the Phoenix.
But it's already obvious.
And it's not just Nintendo, after the news from Nintendo's side, Sony's side seems to be in tune with it, and it also announced its new plan.
They announced that Metal Gear Solid 2 would be released in the summer.
NGC is dominated by Nintendo's first-party games, and third-party titles are only Resident Evil 4.
"Metal Gear Solid 2" is a game that is very much anticipated by players, and some people even compare it to a series of masterpieces on the Internet. Well, as long as it's Dark Souls.
Of course, what players are comparing is not the type of game, but the picture quality of the game, because these games are the most powerful part of each platform, and the comparison of picture quality between the two sides is the PK between the two machines.
Sony announced the release news at this time, and it was earlier than the previous news, obviously for Nintendo, and they already had a plan.
However, this fist was also blocked by the Order of the Phoenix - because at this time, players actually care more about these two games, which is the pinnacle of the picture. However, later a good thing came out with the pinnacle of real graphics "Destiny Night", but this game was complained by those quality players that "dynamic movies and games should not be compared", so everyone just used the recognized Dark Souls and Metal Slug comparison.
Well, although it's a little subtle, the pinnacle of the current real picture is the movie version of "Destiny Night", the team responsible for optimizing this work, the whole has been squeezed dry, and then burned to ashes to make out of the genius, and other works can't be compared in any sense.
Although Sony and Nintendo are both targeting each other, they are also happy to see the Order of the Phoenix and DC-P take a hit.
In their eyes, with the death of Okawa Ko, the Order of the Phoenix lost the support of Sega, and it was rootless. Although the Tianhai family is close to the local tyrants, their traditional business is not in this area, and the strong dragon can't beat the local snake!
So, they don't mind giving DC-P an extra shovel of dirt when attacking their opponents.
Especially now, after Sega, the "true first party", has turned its back on the Order of the Phoenix.
The future of DC-P has been decided.
...... It was meant to be like this.
However, just as Iwata turned off his computer and was about to think about the future of NGC, a sudden message interrupted his thoughts.
No, the news messed up their entire deployment......
......
Google Niang actually took the initiative to find Bang Bang Bang to cooperate, it was really Dawei's house to sit, the advertisement came from the sky, and I would wake up laughing when I dreamed......
David is the boss of Collapse.
