It may not be possible that Hayabusa Nakayama is not sure.

However, MD home game consoles, the achievements made in the six months of the release, but he can easily see the eyes, the strength in the North American market, but also made him unconsciously, a little, at the beginning, he was regarded as an almost fantastical idea, that is, in the American market, Mars Entertainment will be cut under the horse.

Of course, the so-called slashing under the horse, is just a joke from Hayao Nakayama, he knows, at most, they are only half a year earlier than the sixteen-bit machine of Mars Entertainment, half a year, the effect achieved, may be useful, may not be useful, at least from the past five months, some effects, but not big enough, in Nakayama Hayao's view, to defeat Mars Entertainment during the Christmas period, for the upcoming Mars Entertainment of the sixteen-bit machine, and basically has been determined, The battle of the PS console jointly developed by Sony and Nintendo is the best basic preparation.

There is still a long way to go.

Although Hayato Nakayama did not go to the United States, although he had just been monitoring the Christmas promotion in the Japanese market at all times, he still insisted on waiting for the news of the North American market in the middle of the night.

As a new console, it was originally very advantageous during the Christmas period, because many people hope that their Christmas gift this year will be a new thing, not an old thing, whether it is Dreambox or NES, for North American players, they are already familiar with it, it has been their contact for up to four or five years, and Sega V, but for the vast majority of them, is a very fresh, and very advanced toy.

Of course. For those who love video games, there is more than one fresh, advanced toy.

For example. Gameboy of Mars Entertainment.

Moreover, this is a more suitable gift. For those kids, toys that are more attractive, well, at least for students, kids, and those who need to catch the bus, subway, and other odd hours every day, are much more appealing.

Not to mention. At Christmas, there's also a game designed by Jester specifically for the Gameboy.

The most important thing is that the "Pokemon" cartoon is not only released in Japan, although they started broadcasting a little later in North America, but it has also been broadcast on ABC's TV station for half a month, and most importantly, this cartoon has also been a success in the United States, although it is not as crazy as the Japanese, but it still reaches the bottom line of the entire network as stipulated in the contract signed with ABC.

And after the whole network was launched. Jester had already prepared, and the ad linking the Pokemon game to the cartoon began to be launched on a large scale, covering almost all promotional channels. Of course, seeing that Mars Entertainment is so reckless in its promotional expenses, Sega is naturally not far behind, although the financial department is extremely dissatisfied, because it is difficult to earn costs from this kind of advertising expenses only by relying on sales during the Christmas period.

Jester and Mars Entertainment have been in the video game war for four or five years, and they know exactly what matters in the industry.

The quality of the game? The talent of the designer? Or is it the investment in advertising?

Do these matter? Of course it's important. But are these the most important? In Jester's opinion, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is the market share of the game console platform. There is even a saying in the industry that as long as you occupy the largest platform, then even if it is a bubble, someone will buy it home without thinking, but fortunately, Jester is extremely strict about the quality of the game released on Dreambox, and has not really verified it.

Jester agrees, though.

Of course, it's not because of this kind of speculation, but in Jester's mind, there really is such a realistic case as a reference, in the world in Jester's memory, it can be said that in the ten years when video games came back from the ruins in 84 years to the emergence of the PS console in 94 years, although there is no shortage of challengers and threats, but no game company has ever really threatened Nintendo's hegemony.

Although Sega had caused them a lot of trouble, as soon as their Super FC came out, coupled with the simultaneous launch of Super Mario World, the whole situation was completely brought back with an almost sweeping power.

It is in this context that Nintendo once launched a game that many Nintendo fans were ashamed to mention the name of this game during the period when their dominance was at its strongest, and even many Nintendo game fans did not admit that this was Nintendo's work, but the game cartridge was printed with the Nintendo logo in black and white, which is not deceptive.

Moreover, a game of this quality is also unique in the history of FC, even if it is a rainbow factory known for its pit goods, it has never made such a cheating game, this game later became the protagonist on a foreign celebrity's complaining show, this Ren Fan almost used an unbearable tone to criticize this game and Nintendo, which officially released this game.

Well, this game is an action game 52 in 1.

If you are familiar with the history of FC games, you must be unfamiliar with the game I am talking about, because this game is so famous.

It also has a name, it's called the worst ever.

It is precisely because of this that Jester does not want to bear these scoldings for no reason in the future life, for him, this kind of behavior is not necessary at all, in fact, Jester is also very curious, why Nintendo was able to do this kind of thing by himself, is it that at that time, the situation of dominating the game industry and almost no challengers made them feel that they were invincible in the world, and they could trample on the trust of players at will?

You know, when this game was released at that time, it was around 88 to * years, and the price of this game was as high as more than 40 dollars at that time, is this price high?

It wasn't too high, and at that time a NES or Atari 7200 was only $79.

And the price of a "Super Mario" will not be much more expensive than this price.

According to Jester from that video at the time, the video recorder said that this game was the equivalent of him paying forty dollars for a bubble of stinking shit.

Jester is extremely strict about the quality of the game, whether it is external or internal, and even for his own company, the game requirements of the studio, but even more stringent, because Jester knows that word of mouth is very difficult to build, but it is very easy to corrupt, almost overnight, in the game industry, it may be difficult to find a suitable example, but in other industries, such examples abound.

For example, before Jester was reborn, he heard a story about Qingping chicken, the first chicken in Guangdong.

This story is very complicated to say very long, but it is very simple to say that it is very simple, as for why Qingping chicken will become the first chicken in Guangdong, there is no need to say here, just say how he poured out, the reason is very simple, because of the increase in fame, the growth of sales, the expansion of the store, so that this brand in the selection of materials before is strictly prevailing, the industry said, is the Qingping Hotel Qingping chicken selection of good, unique in eastern Guangdong, and the practice of Qingping chicken, It also has very strict requirements for the ingredients themselves.

At that time, the Qingping Chicken of the Qingping Hotel, according to the number on the Guangdong Travel Brochure, sold 9,330 chickens in a day at most, and had a total sales record of one million in a year, which can be said to be worthy of the name.

To make Qingping chicken, it is necessary to use Qingyuan chicken, but for various reasons, on that day, some of his chickens were not Qingyuan chicken.

Originally, ordinary people couldn't eat it, but a few gourmets in Guangdong happened to lead a gourmand surnamed Dai from the bend that day to eat the world-famous Qingping chicken, the chicken he ate happened to be not cooked with Qingyuan chicken, but Zhanjiang chicken, for people who have not eaten it, feel that the taste of the chicken is not delicious, at most it is unappetizing, but a relative of this gourmand surnamed Dai is raising Qingping chicken.

It's a coincidence that this is not a book.

In addition, the gourmand surnamed Dai was a Chinese-American at that time, and after leaving the Qingping Hotel, he privately told his friends that the name of this restaurant was not true, and he went to water.

It means that this shop is playing tricks and using the wrong materials.

You must know that good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles, and within a few days, it spread to the municipal team of Guangdong at that time, you must know that this Dai someone's influence among Chinese Americans is very great, plus it was the 90s, and the attitude of the country towards these banana people was indignant, so this matter was immediately elevated to a diplomatic incident.

One of the most critical questions.

That is the name of the first chicken in Guangdong in Qingping Hotel, which was inscribed by someone who was the mayor of Guangdong at the time, and this scandal appeared not only a few days later.

Then there was the fame of Qingping Chicken, which plummeted.

In the end, this famous restaurant in Guangdong also finished all its career, and on the evening of the same day, after the end of business, it was officially announced that the head office, including all the branches, was closed and closed.

It's a story from a different industry, but it's very instructive for Jester.

Because in his eyes, their game industry is the same as a restaurant.

They all rely on the reputation of players. (To be continued) R655
