Being in a high position, the consideration of many things is involuntary.

Maybe with a single thought, the empire will fall and become a sinner, but it will only be a matter of the blink of an eye.

Hayao Nakayama is like this, and in Nintendo's president's office, so is Pu Yamauchi, who is listening to the report at the moment.

“…… Overall, this game has 4.8 stars for the plot, 5 stars for the graphics, 5 stars for the sound, and 5 stars for the operation...... This is the score released by Age of Wonders, and it is the only game on the entire market with 5-star ratings on all three points...... In this sense, whether it is Sega, or ...... We...... There is no game that can compare to ......," Gunhei Yokoi reported all the reports in his hand to Yamauchi Pu in his seat.

"It's with Contra Robbi. Yamauchi Pu crossed his fingers with his hands, and his voice was very flat.

"Konami Contra...... In terms of production level, it is not as good as ...... In Huaxia's words, fighting with people is endless fun, and Contra is fighting against computer AI after all, and in terms of setting, it is already destined to be weaker by one level. Shigeru Miyamoto next to him replied without thinking about it, and it can be seen that he has made a full analysis.

"So, what about Super Mario......" The old man's body remained still, as if asking an inconsequential question.

When this question was asked, the faces of both Yokoi Junhei and Miyamoto Shigeru changed drastically!

Super Mario, after 7 years of hard work, has actually fallen into a bottleneck in terms of gameplay, and it is not an exaggeration to say that there is no innovation.

However, King of Fighters, is a masterpiece of the genre!

This is almost unimaginable in the course of a decade or so of video games.

There are more than 20 types of games that have developed so far.

But there is hardly a genre that can be said to have reached the masterpiece.

Because everyone is exploring, they are all researching step by step, where is the limit of the game if the hardware allows.

Eight-bit machine, in fact, there is not much comparison.

There are few colors, and it is only used for it.

There isn't much style comparison.

However, now, on the sixteen-bit console, there is a work that detonates the vision and detonates the game level.

This is no longer the same level of confrontation!

Even Li Fangcheng didn't know what the terrifying impact of the King of Fighters, who had been advanced for a full 8 years, was incarnated as the current king of martial arts!

If Super Mario develops for a few more years, if you give Street Fighter another few years, if you give Contra a few more years......

If postponed for a few more years.

Then the quality of the game, the number of games, in the case that everyone has figured out the sixteen-bit host arcade, and even 32-bit have appeared, then a hundred flowers will bloom and a hundred schools of thought will contend. Even if the King of Fighters reappears, it won't have much impact.

However, what time is it?

It's 1989!

It's time when sixteen-bit hosts are just coming along!

This means that Li Fangcheng arranged a boxer to compete with a child!

It's almost the same!

An adult boxer who already has his own routines, his own skilled skills and mature physique, who else can easily compete?

The people present are not stupid, they are all smart people, and naturally know what this means.

"If we figured out the sixteen-bit host, we could have our own sixteen-bit Super Mario ......," Miyamoto said hesitantly.

"I don't want to hear that, I just want to know how to fight the king of fighters and then crush the game. Yamauchi Pu slapped the table with his left hand, not very strongly, but it was as if the whole room was shaken!

Wordless coercion permeated the room.

For a long time, when the air was about to freeze, Yokoi Junhei said in a somewhat hoarse voice, "I have a plan......

Say. ”

The tone of voice that was not angry made people feel that even the air was three points colder.

"Price reduction...... And then...... Cooperate with other third parties to develop the best games at all costs, quickly cooperate with other hardware manufacturers, and launch a sixteen-bit console ...... at all costs"

The two of them did whatever it took to make the atmosphere of the entire company a little more severe.

Even if Yamauchi Pu doesn't particularly understand the game, he can sense that this old partner is in an unprecedented serious tone.

"...... at all costs" Yamauchi Pu did not refute for the first time, his left hand on the table, and the tail finger was light on the table.

"In the first half of the year, revenues were almost halved. Yamauchi Pu was rare and did not answer directly.

Halfway?

Shigeru Miyamoto and Junhei Yokoi subconsciously frowned.

Half of Nintendo's revenue is gone, and that's almost a huge loss!

If you continue to invest desperately, I'm afraid it will hurt Nintendo's old roots.

Yamauchi Pu is a businessman and a politician, and he also understands the principle of pursuing advantages and avoiding disadvantages.

Hayabusa Nakayama's MD has no return, this example is right in front of him, and he can't be careless!

"Convene the board and let them decide for themselves. ”

I don't know how long it took for Yamauchi's voice to sound again in this office.

"Hey!"

The two walked out of the room with a sigh of relief.

It's just that what Yokoi Junhei and Miyamoto Shigeru didn't notice was that the clothes behind them had already had an extra layer of sweat......

The power of the emperor is terrifying!

Even the most familiar people can hardly resist such silent pressure!

Between the breezy and cloudy, a slap on the table made the two of them sweat coldly!

This is the impact of the dictatorship of Pu Yamauchi.

Financial report is always the most intuitive data when a company reviews it.

All plans, all strategies, the most direct way to verify is every financial statement.

Now is not the Internet era, the statistics of many things are still the most primitive artificial, layer by layer collection and summary and then sorted into corresponding reports.

And the semi-annual financial situation has gradually become an unwritten rule among various companies.

It is equivalent to an audit of the enterprise from the inside out, and if there are any problems, it is good to adjust them in time so as to better face the market in the second half of the year.

Li Fangcheng, who got his hand, also has such a report.

1989, financial statements for the first half of the year.

In the past six months, the achievements of the Age of Miracles have been quite brilliant.

Full bloom is no problem to describe it in this word.

From the handheld "Family Members", to a series of games from the console Xingchen, and the handheld Game Palyer, which has just been launched for a short time.

The sales are amazing!

There are 30 million family members around the world, nearly 4 million Star consoles, and GP handhelds that quickly become popular around the world and sell 2 million units a month, plus a variety of game cartridges......

In the first half of the year, the revenue of the entire Age of Wonders reached a terrifying $1 billion!

This is almost a miracle sales myth!
