So, Jester knocked the table, drawing the two of them back to attention.

Clearing his throat, Jester said: "I personally didn't expect that this news from an informal channel would cause such a big wave in the industry, so I was thinking, in this case, this thing we want to keep secret is no longer confidential, so let's just talk about it to the outside world." ”

Jester's words, Hayabusa Nakayama and Kutaragi Ken's faces were a little hesitant, after all, the matter has not been officially decided, to be precise, the cooperation agreement has not yet been signed, if it is announced to the outside world now, it seems a little unruly.

Seeing the hesitation on the faces of the two of them, Jester also knew the reason, so Jester also said it simply.

"It's not really that we have reached an agreement, but I just revealed to the outside world that we are negotiating on this aspect, as for whether the negotiations are reached or not, it depends on your own wishes, we just need to officially stand up and declare to the outside world that the gossip you heard before is true."

Jester's tone was very flat when he spoke, but in the ears of Ken Kutaragi and Hayao Nakayama, he listened? There was a cold and unforgiving taste.

Without him, if this news is confirmed and confirmed, God knows what Nintendo's stock price will fall to, to put it mildly, even if Nintendo's stock falls to delisting, it is not impossible.

But then again, neither Ken Kutaragi nor Hayao Nakayama have the slightest affection for Nintendo, and they can see Yamauchi falling into the abyss. It seemed to be something that the two of them also liked to see, so they quickly nodded in agreement with Jester's construction.

For this kind of news, any media is very interested, and Jester has always had a good relationship with ABC, so he notified ABC as soon as possible and asked ABC to come here to make a news, and the title of the news is Mars Entertainment. Sega and Sony Computer Entertainment are discussing the establishment of the World Electronics Association and the establishment of game rating standards.

After this news was released, all third-party developers knew that it was a dead end to continue to stay on Nintendo's tree, and Nintendo's stock price fell by 11% as soon as the news was released.

After Yamauchi learned the news, he had a heart attack and was sent to the emergency room.

Soon, Yamauchi Pu, who was still in the intensive care unit, also issued an order to the outside world as soon as he rescued him. This order makes people feel both different and make people feel that maybe this is the only way out for Nintendo.

In this order, Yamauchi first admitted some of his mistakes in the development and operation of Nintendo's consoles over the years, especially for the departure of Yokoi Junhei, he was the most sad. This is a huge mistake that he will not forgive himself for the rest of his life.

Then he negotiated that the current Nintendo no longer has the ability to compete fairly with the world's top game companies on the game platform, so he thinks. Rather than letting Nintendo continue to fall deeper and deeper on the path of console development, it is better to retreat from the rapids now.

The new sixteen-bit host they jointly developed with Sony before, Yamauchi Pu was also in this external speech. It was expressed that if they could, then they could negotiate a settlement of the issue of the ownership of the sixteen-bit host.

Then, Yamauchi announced that from then on, Nintendo would withdraw from the development of the console platform forever, and in the future, it would only exist as a third-party game developer.

This news is earth-shattering in the industry.

You must know that although Mars Entertainment is now in full swing, the industry is generally recognized that after the impact of Atari, there are two companies that have revitalized the game industry instead of one, and even at the beginning, Nintendo was still ahead of Mars Entertainment.

No, it's just because Nintendo released the game console much earlier than Mars Entertainment.

As Jester looked at the newspaper in his hand, pondering how much of an impact Nintendo's announcement of the console competition would have on the industry, the black phone on his desk for international calls rang.

When I picked it up, it turned out to be a call from Pu Yamauchi.

According to Yamauchi's position in the industry, it is not difficult to know Jester's phone number.

Jester is actually full of respect for this opponent who has never met in person, after all, in the history he knows, this stubborn and domineering dictatorial old man has indeed made an indelible contribution to the development of the entire video game.

It's not an exaggeration to say that he is a legend.

Even in this day and age, his royalty is a very classic creation, and it is the best way to avoid a large number of shoddy games completely destroying the entire gaming platform.

Now, whether it is himself, Sega, or Sony, the way he is now adopting is still the way of royalty, although there are various different changes, but it is undeniable that this is inspired by Yamauchi's Nintendo rights setting.

"President Li, I'm really sorry to call you suddenly."

Jester could hear a hoarse old voice on the phone, speaking in English, although there was some Japanese English pronunciation, but after dealing with Japanese people, Jester was used to listening to Japanese English that seemed to be an alien language in other people's ears.

"Is it Mr. Yamauchi?"

For this senior, Jester naturally can't slack off, otherwise it will spread out, and his reputation will not be good.

This phone call didn't talk a lot, the two sides just exchanged names, there was a brief chat, Jester also asked about Yamauchi's condition, and Yamauchi Pu said that there is no big problem now, but he may not be able to continue to go to Nintendo in a short period of time, and the current company's affairs, he has entrusted it to his son-in-law, Arakawa Minoru is responsible.

It was impossible to get Yamauchi to say something soft, and Jester didn't think Yamauchi could say it. In fact, he was able to take the initiative to call himself, and Jester was very surprised.

In Yamauchi's dictionary, being able to do this is the limit.

"If Nintendo is willing, you can submit an application to us in the name of the company, that is, to apply to join the World Video Games Association, if you want to withdraw from the competition of home console platforms forever, then I welcome Nintendo, as a third-party game developer, to join us."

Jester's opinion was clear over the phone. This is also the result of the previous discussions between the three of them.

They had long anticipated Nintendo's reactions after the news of their three official cooperation was revealed, and the reaction to this complete withdrawal from the console platform was also in their reactions, but according to the process of their previous discussions, the discussion of Yamauchi's character, I felt that even if Nintendo really came to this point, it would definitely not do it at the beginning.

Why this conclusion? It's very simple, because according to Yamauchi's normal character, he would never be like this.

But what I didn't expect was that this incident would cause Yamauchi Pu to have a heart attack. This sudden onset may have completely dispelled all his ambitions, and also made him see the reality clearly, rather than continue to resist stubbornly. Empty Nintendo's potential, it is better to let go as soon as possible, so as to save as much vitality as possible.

And the three Jester families had no intention of completely killing Nintendo, which was not in their interests. What they wanted, in fact, was that, Nintendo took the initiative to give up the home console market. The complete transformation into a third-party game developer is a joy for all.

After the call with Yamauchi Pu ended, Jester immediately called Kutaragi Ken and Hayao Nakayama, and told them about this matter in detail, although both of them were a little embarrassed, but they were still very satisfied with Yamauchi's knowledge of current affairs.

They also promised on the phone that as long as Nintendo submitted the application, then they would definitely pass Guò.

Soon, this news was also reported, and Nintendo's stock, which was still plummeting, instantly stopped the downward trend and even began to rebound.

And "famitsu" also specially released an issue of the issue, to introduce the entire history of Nintendo's game consoles, from their one that cooperated with Panasonic, and finally lost money to almost go bankrupt, starting with their new consoles that have not been released until now, and have not even been shown to the public.

In fact, the performance of this console,Everyone doesn't care much about it,Because Sony's PS has been released,Their Super Nintendo and Sony's PS are actually a mother and twins,On its performance from the PS point of view,They compare Mars Entertainment's Dreambox2 and Sega's MD,In fact, there is no special advantage,At least from the display function of the picture,None of these three games is better than anyone。

There were even many die-hard Nintendo devotees, and even held a funeral for the Super Nintendo, which Nintendo had never released, at least in Tokyo, with tens of thousands of people in attendance.

The father of FC and one of the main developers of Super FC, Masayuki Uemura also officially attended the funeral.

At this funeral, Masayuki Uemura gave a speech, in which he choked up several times, expressing his gratitude to Nintendo, as well as his disappointment and sadness at Nintendo's decision to launch the hardware field from now on, and expressed his future decision.

After all, as a hardware development engineer, it's impossible to stay in a company that no longer develops hardware.
