"President Nakayama, how much did you lose last year?"

"When will our financial statements be published?"

"I hope President Nakayama doesn't waste any more time today. ”

"Give us an answer. ”

"If you don't give us definite news today, then I'll ditch the stock!"

"That's right! I have to explain this matter today. ”

“……”

Shareholders, large and small, are not in a good mood at the moment.

In a week, the news of the entire Age of Miracles was more and more shocking.

The emergence of new genres and innovations that have subverted the game industry have made the media have countless topics to shake the pen.

Not to mention the comparison between Nintendo and Sega, from the analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of the entire game lineup, there is no doubt that even Nintendo plus Sega will be completely defeated by the Age of Wonders.

In terms of hardware, although Nintendo Dialogue is already working on sixteen consoles, it will be completed in a few days.

But there is no exact release date at all, and there is no hint of performance to be revealed, which is directly accused of grandstanding.

No matter how powerful Nintendo is, it can only restrict some entertainment newspapers, and comprehensive news such as normal daily newspapers and evening newspapers are beyond the reach of the whip.

Obviously, Nintendo and Sega were directly blown up by the Age of Miracles in hardware.

In this case, the voice of doubt about the two is rising.

In the end, the shareholders were alarmed!

Hayao Nakayama knew that this day would come sooner or later, but what he didn't expect was that this day, just after Christmas and New Year's Day, would come so suddenly......

He took two steps, ignoring everyone's questioning, and walked to his exclusive seat.

The speed is not fast, but every step is very serious, as if there is something unique pulling him at every step under his feet.

Old appearance, gray hair.

Opening his mouth, Hayakuo's voice was a little low: "Sit down, the report you want has all been counted today." ”

Zhongshan Hayabusa didn't have any extra nonsense, he didn't speak to anyone directly, and after he glanced around, he said Shi Shiran.

"I know what you're all thinking, just to see how profitable the company has been over the past year......"

"In particular, in this article, the loss estimates for Nintendo and us ......"

A booklet, with the drop of Hayakuo Nakayama's hand, flew to the middle of the table and spun around a few times.

It's just that no one has read this book, because, that's the latest issue of the Entertainment Weekly in the Age of Wonders, and the main text on it is - "Pry the 5 billion market, the end of Nintendo and Sega"

Most of the reasons why the people present came here to confront Hayao Nakayama were because of the topic controversy caused by this issue of the weekly.

The article is not many words, but it is supported by data analysis from a well-known economist.

One of the passages reads:

“…… Based on the market share of the whole of last year, the number of shipments of Nintendo's FC and Sega's MD was only one-fifth of that of the entire Miracle Era......"

"The consoles sold by the entire Miracle Group account for more than eighty percent of the entire video game market, which means that the Miracle Group has become the biggest winner, and all the R&D expenses and publicity expenses invested by Nintendo and Sega have been lost!"

"Nintendo's arcade market has been squeezed by Sega and Marvel Age, relying only on a Contra, it is difficult to support alone, and the console side is needless to say, under the suppression of the 16-bit console, not even a wave has been turned up......"

"Sega's situation is even more miserable than Nintendo's! According to relevant personnel, the entire Sega secretly invested 2 billion in the research and development of the console - MD, which was directly knocked into the dust by the console of the Age of Wonders, and this money has no hope of being recovered, and the game developed by buying a large number of copyrights has hardly won the favor of many players......

"It is preliminarily estimated that throughout 1989, all of Sega's investment, plus the research and development expenses of the console, lost at least 3 billion, and Nintendo was not much better, from the arcade, the console, and even the handheld that spent a lot of capital to develop the handheld, almost all aspects were hit, and the initial loss reached 2 billion ......"

"At this point, in the first half of the console battlefield, Nintendo and Sega, who were kings, were knocked off the throne by the upstart Miracle Era, and the second half of the console battlefield witnessed the complete rise of an emerging power, or the fall of the former emperor...... Let's look forward to the arrival of the new century together!"

This article completely detonated the panic of the Japanese media about the decline of local enterprises!

If this is in the territory of China, it is estimated that they are scolding the invasion of foreign forces such as the Miracle Age, but in Japan, it is very interesting that Japan has always worshiped the strong, and the Miracle Age occupied most of the market share in the last year with absolute strength, which makes them respect such a company.

Since the problem is not with others, it must be the problem with the enterprises in your own country.

Thus, the verbal criticism around Nintendo and Sega began.

Hayao Nakayama shook his head, it was already this time, what was the use of thinking about it again.

With a little self-deprecation and a little unwillingness, he said slowly: "Last year, our loss was 1.223 billion ......"

The shareholders didn't know why, but they were relieved to hear this number!

1.223 billion, which is still within the tolerance of Sega

With Sega's heritage, although this is a bit nerve-wracking, it is not at the end of the mountain.

The most important thing is to prove that the outside world is wrong!

However, before everyone could breathe a sigh of relief, Hayao Nakayama continued, "Due to the high cost of developing MDs, there was no way to recover the costs, so after careful consideration, I decided to dismiss the project teams related to console development and console game development......"

"What! You're going to give up the host??"

"Isn't the loss manageable? Why do you want to cancel the host-related departments?"

"Is this a bow to Nintendo?"

"I'm going to divest, what's the point?"

The project team was withdrawn, that is, Sega abandoned the console market......

It's unimaginable!

Why do so many capitalists follow Sega in its historical losses?

That's because the market size of video games is expanding day by day, and behind the market, it's all about profits!

"Because...... The money we invested in R&D MD before was not spent last year......"

It wasn't spent last year......

This sentence is like a thunderbolt from the sky, which makes them all stupid!!
