In addition to the secret competition between Mars Entertainment and Nintendo, other game manufacturers are not idle, especially those software developers under Nintendo.

For example, the K Society, known as Kobe's wavelet, launched the world's first fighting game "Kung Fu", although many of the designs in this game are rough and clumsy, and the action is very naïve and low-level, but the extraordinary fun brought by the fighting game still caused a wave of craze on a certain number of dù, not only in Japan this game is selling wildly, even in the United States, but also in a certain number of dù to increase the market share of the NES.

And Jester had been trying to get Mark Brown before. Saini's team that developed "Avengers", based on previous experience, the plan to develop an excellent fighting game is still only on paper, although they have designed a fighting level in "Avengers", but if you want to make a real fighting game, it is not the same thing as just making a fighting level, and the difficulty between the two is simply unreasonable.

What worries Jester the most is that Capcom is a strong table during this time, among Nintendo's current six major software developers, Jester is most worried that it is not Namco that is now in the leading position, Hudson These old developers, what he is really worried about is K Society, it is like Capcom, which is not obvious now, and there is no outstanding table xiàn in terms of home machines.

Capcom seems to lack enough enthusiasm and motivation for home console game development, but instead has a passion for arcade machines, and so far, this year is less than nine months, and they have already released four completely different games on arcades, and all of them are extremely good, and all have a lot to offer.

Fortunately, in addition to porting "1942" to FC but not selling well, Capcom does not seem to have any plans to port these newly released arcade games to FC, which has also caused dissatisfaction on Nintendo's side, and they have also used various methods to put pressure on Capcom.

However, Capcom's results in arcade were excellent, and the pressure on Nintendo was a bit off-the-beaten.

Jester looked at the names of these games, "Demon Village", "Red Dead Redemption", "Space Warrior" and "Wolf of the Battlefield", the four games produced by Capcom, he was deeply impressed, each with its own characteristics, fully showing Capcom's understanding of game design and extraordinary ability.

Although Jester often calls Capcom a, he is extremely impressed by the company's ability in game development, since the birth of this company, it has been at the forefront of the industry, whether it is in the eighties and nineties when Japanese manufacturers are in full swing, or two thousand years after Japanese manufacturers were completely exploded by European and American manufacturers, Capcom has always been one of the cornerstones of Japanese manufacturers to adhere to the last honor and dignity.

Their contribution to Japanese manufacturers is also unparalleled.

But what disgusted Jester the most was their credo that they would look to money even if they died, and they didn't have the love that a game designer should have for their own hard work.

However, now, this kind of creed that is open to the eyes of money has brought Jester a surprise, and he can't help but look at this creed that he hated very much before, and it is also extremely pleasing to the eye, and he who is good to me is good, this sentence is indeed true.

Because just an hour ago, he received a strange phone call from the front desk, and the person on the other end of the phone claimed to be Kenzo Qianmoto, and his identity was the president of Capcom Co., Ltd. in Japan.

In fact, there is no need for the other party to introduce himself in such detail, Jester naturally knows who Kenzo Qianmoto is.

A request from a software developer under Nintendo's command to meet Nintendo's biggest rival now, in Jester's eyes, has something different, both familiar and unfamiliar, which seems to be full of the Capcom style of later generations that he understands.

Treachery.

Then, without hesitation, Jester agreed to the other party's request, and he agreed to meet.

Kenzo Kanmoto had already arrived in the United States, and he flew to Canada via Aomori under the pretext that he was going to Hokkaido for a vacation, and then flew from Canada to California, and the reason for doing so was that he wanted to hide from Nintendo's eyes and ears.

He's a speculator, which Kenzo himself doesn't deny, as a speculator, he won't put all his chips in one basket, just like he won't really tear his face with Nintendo until he reaches an agreement with Jester.

In the eyes of Kenzo Qianben, he is just chasing interests, and there is nothing about betrayal or betrayal.

Just like the reason why he founded Capcom and insisted on hiring those dismissed game developers with high salaries during the Atari attack in '83, it was not that he was really compassionate, but that he saw the amazing benefits of the video game industry.

And Capcom can become bigger, with the scale it is now, Kenzo Mimoto really has to thank Atari for the impact, if it weren't for the disaster that completely shuffled the entire game industry from beginning to end in 83, then Kobe's Xiaobo is the K company would not have laid off more than a quarter of the employees, and he, as a new company, has no chance to recruit industry elites such as Yoshiki Okamoto, Tokuro Fujiwara, and Noritaka Funamizu.

Kenzo Mijimoto, who was in a hotel in Los Angeles with a glass of red wine and thinking about his next meeting with Jester, had never been so anxious as he was now, even if he had a complete falling out with Yoshihiko Takado back then, he knew that every step he took now was like dancing on a blade, and between Nintendo and Mars Entertainment, the two major game giants across Japan and the United States, one wrong step could make him and Capcom doomed.

At this time, he couldn't help but remember his original intention to enter the game industry.

For Kenzo Tsumoto, although he is not a pure Osaka person, he has spent more than half of his life in his forties in Osaka, and he himself feels a bit like the standard Osaka character described by Yokozo Masashi in the novel - old-fashioned and cunning by nature, always likes to put on a high posture that is out of step with the ordinary people around him, and although he is greedy for money, he occasionally does a few earth-shattering deeds.

It's like when he didn't do a good civil engineering business and resolutely devoted himself to the video game industry.

Kenzo Kanmoto's education is not high, and his age does not allow him to have a detailed understanding of video games, so what made him decide to enter the video game industry was a newspaper called "Asahi Shimbun", which reported that a young college student named Tomohiro Nishikaku had received a huge prize of tens of millions of yen from the publisher Teto for successfully developing "Space Invaders", and a "Nikkei Shimbun" published a report in the same period that Teto was awarded a huge prize of tens of millions of yen for "Space Invaders" It is predicted that the net profit of this year will increase by more than ten times year-on-year.

What really touched his heart was a front-page headline in his Osaka newspaper, Osaka, which reported that the Ministry of Finance had to announce an emergency mint of new coins due to a severe shortage of 100 yen coins on the market due to the unprecedented popularity of "Space Invaders".

Kenzo Kanmoto admits that he didn't know anything about this thing called a video game at the time, but the series of reports did arouse his curiosity, so he decided to find out for himself what this so-called game called "Space Invaders" was.

It took him a long time to find an arcade in the basement of a shop around the corner.

Since Japan's video game industry was just getting full bloom at the time, and there was no dedicated industry association, most of the arcade halls in general were harsh and mixed, and the noisy and mixed scene really surprised Kenzo Mimoto, who arrived for the first time.

In the space of less than 100 square meters, there were many people sitting or standing, ranging in age from 15 to 45 years old, including unkempt haired and ragged unemployed ronin, as well as white-collar workers in suits and leather shoes.

The arcade's dozen or so consoles are almost entirely a game, with players maneuvering planes to dodge obstacles and wait for an opportunity to shoot down an incoming alien flying saucer. From time to time, there were bursts of exaggerated exclamations accompanied by monotonous electronic sounds in the crowd, and both players and onlookers were so forgetful, and one coin after another continued to fall into the coin hole. Kenzo stood quietly in a corner and watched this qiē, and the unusually boiling scene made his heart pound.

It was as if he saw money like a stream of water.

Capcom is not the company that Kenzo Kanmoto founded directly from the beginning, and Kenzo Kanzo doesn't want to look back on the grudge he created with the first game company he created now, unlike other people who have entered the game industry, Kenzo Kanmoto doesn't have too deep feelings for video games, and the reason why he entered it is only because he sees the business opportunities hidden in this industry, big and amazing business opportunities.

That's why he did that kind of thing that was laughed at as a shelter for Kobe Xiaobo when the entire video game industry was threatened by the Atari shock in '83.

Is he stupid? Of course not, Kenzo is a shrewd entrepreneur, there is no doubt about it, and it is precisely because of his shrewdness that he dares to take a desperate bet, and it was and still is.

Thinking back to his past qiē, Kenzo Qianmoto drank the wine in his hand, then he looked at the time, and the time he had agreed with Jester was almost up, so he came to the mirror and tidied up his appearance, and then showed a confident look on his face.

He believes that he will be able to convince Jester because he knows the biggest flaw behind the seeming strength of Mars Entertainment right now. R1152
