The third update: Anger and small shoes [Ask for subscription!

Yokoi Junhei looked at the "Tetris" handheld in front of him, with a trace of anger in his heart, his reserve as a minister was gone, and he scolded directly, "Bastard!"

Takahashi's Wanhu is really a bit too much of a bully, and although he didn't care too much about the D-pad he invented, he has now applied for a patent. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info did not expect that although the patent was enthusiastic, the patent was not very perfect, and it was exploited by Wanhu in this way.

The steering buttons removed from the Tetris handheld have almost the same structure as the D-pad, the only difference is that the surface of the keys is a little concave, making this pirated D-pad look like an independent key on the outside.

However, anger turned to anger, and Yokoi Junhei quickly calmed down.

When it comes to plagiarism and imitation, whether it is Nintendo, or many companies in the United States, as long as they are engaged in manufacturing, there is almost no possibility that they have not done similar things.

One of the most important reasons why human beings are human beings is that the experience of individual human beings can be passed on through teaching.

What is the essence of learning?

From imitating simple movements, to imitating abstract thinking.

Does someone be born knowing everything and not having to learn anything? No. If there is, then he is almost a traverser who has not run.

In the video game industry, imitation has become a trend, from software to hardware, everyone is not all "copying" and copying.

"Micro-innovation" in imitation and the pursuit of quality in competition.

If you copy too much, it becomes a specialized game genre. It's like a time-traveling novel in its own right, and in terms of modern origins, it doesn't come from Mark Twain's "Yankees in Arthur's Dynasty".

Yokoi was angry that it was not the hardware design of the Tetris machine, but the devastating blow of the Tetris machine to the game watch.

Although the sales of gaming watches have decreased recently, there are still two or three hundred thousand local sales per month.

However, since the "Tetris" machine began to be shipped in large quantities, the monthly sales of game watches have quickly fallen below the 200,000 sales mark, and this month it has fallen below 100,000.

Originally, although the red and white machine was very prosperous, the profit of the game watch was not bad. The first development department, which is responsible for the development of game watches, will not be unable to hold its head up in front of the hardware development department responsible for the development of red and white machines.

As long as you have enough time to design new products, you can once again lead the (harmony) in Nintendo. However, the "Tetris" handheld launched by Wanhu ruined Yokoi's plan.

The development of a new handheld is a long way off, and Tetris is selling so well. There is no choice but to terminate the handheld project that is now being developed, and make every effort to imitate the "Tetris" machine and make a defensive product that follows the trend.

Gunhei Yokoi sat down painfully and made the decision to abandon the existing project, which was definitely a painful thing. The loss is not only the capital cost of upfront R&D, but also the capital cost that is difficult to measure in money.

If other manufacturers launch similar products in this window period and quickly occupy the market, what should they do? What else can they do?

Shopping malls, which seem to be reasonable, are actually unreasonable.

Gunhei Yokoi sighed and began to push forward with his defensive handheld plan in full force.

――――――

"President, the review of the new game on the red and white machine platform has been returned. The secretary's sister came in with a swaying figure. It is not easy to find such a tall, bumpy and dancing woman among the women.

Takahashi didn't have an office &.AVI female secretary though. But when you see beautiful things, you will feel better.

When Takahashi heard the bad news, he didn't show any loss on his face, "Oh, I see. Do they have the audit documents?"

I'm done flipping through it.

"Let the people in the development team take a break for a while, the game is fine, remember to calm their emotions. Takahashi said, putting down the file of picking bones in the egg.

"Yes. The secretary's sister withdrew after speaking.

Takahashi didn't watch the secretary's sister leave, every time the secretary's sister left, how much time should he waste this day, and did he have to do anything else?

He pulled out a letter of invitation from Sega, which had been in place for several months, and was ready to welcome Takahashi to visit the headquarters.

He believes that several other major game companies have similar invitations in the president's office drawer.

Sega, which is in a weak position for home machines, naturally has a lower attitude towards developers. It's unclear how many manufacturers have been in contact with Sega, but it's definitely quite a few.

The reason why he didn't die is also very simple, that is, publishing games on the Sega platform is not profitable enough. Although the mosquito is still a piece of meat no matter how small it is, Nintendo now has an exclusive agreement with almost an overlord clause.

Although there is no paper rule that a third party can only develop games for the home console of the red and white machine, if a game is developed for other home consoles, the probability of being worn with small shoes must not be small.

You must know that the game has a golden release period, and Nintendo can make you miss the best sales time through means such as raw material shortages, lack of review, etc.

For example, Wanhu's current game, it is estimated that when the summer vacation is over, even if it is only changed by one pixel, Nintendo's side will review and pass.

If you will not pass the revision review immediately, then you are not in a hurry, let the staff of the project team take a vacation, maybe you can return from vacation, you can have a fuller work spirit, and you may be able to update the strange ideas.

At the same time, Takahashi also set his sights on the personal computer platform. Although this platform has a low number of capital holdings, it is not used to play games.

Although this platform is seriously pirated all over the world, if it breaks with Nintendo, Takahashi is also going to enter this market.

However, before that, let's take a look at the death of Jia.

Takahashi picked up the phone and said, "Contact Sega and say that I am going to visit the headquarters of Sega recently." Right...... Yes, that's it. ”

After Takahashi finished speaking, he began to read the documents again.

Although there are only three or four thousand direct employees, there are still many things that Takahashi needs to decide.

Although the Takahashi office outside has already helped him with many less important things. However, there are still many things that Takahashi needs to decide.

It's a pity that Wanhu hasn't had outstanding management talents within it for so long, otherwise appointing a few executives would have been able to help Takahashi solve a lot of problems.

Takahashi rubbed his somewhat sour eyes and thought, "Talent is hard to find!"
