Chapter 234: Fighting Games

It's not uncommon to add CG to the game, for example, Jester did it in Mars Entertainment's arcade games, which were also widely acclaimed.

But to add CG to a home machine that is far less functional than an arcade machine is a completely difficult job, and the program that needs to be written is much more complicated than on the arcade machine, in fact, Jester is working on Zuò's "Clannad" is also facing the same problem, if you lose the foil of CG, then this already very niche game, I'm afraid it will be even more niche.

For this matter, Jester also talked to Yuji Nakatsu about his idea for this game alone, and Yuji Nakatsu also said that it was not a problem at all after hearing it, and that after he completed "Phantasy Star", he would go to the United States to help Jester complete his "Clannad".

The release of "Metal Gear Solid" was similar to Jester's expectations, and it still did not cause much waves in Japan, although Jester also made the Japanese branch work hard to promote it before, and followed the previous "Final Fantasy" east wind, but the final sales number was only less than 300,000 copies in three months, but fortunately, the sales in the North American market were unexpectedly good.

It seems that the U.S. market is particularly fond of this hardcore game, and the final North American sales are fixed at 700,000.

In the past three months, Jester can be said to have been unfazed.,He's writing the program of "clannad" on a person.,A person completes its character design.,And its plot.,The memory of this game is still relatively deep.,The last life Jester is not an otaku player.,He played this otaku masterpiece because of the recommendation of a friend of his.,Originally, Jester was not interested in it.,But I can't stand being recommended again or twice.,And this person is still his own confidante.,Not a girlfriend., It's just a very good relationship with a female friend.

In desperation. Jester went to play this game that was blown by his confidante on the ground.,The game in the sky.,The result is unexpectedly good.,This is also the first time he has a change in the house game game.,He originally thought that the house game was an unsightly thing like a ghost animal.,Actually, it's not.,But just as he was about to continue to play a few highly-rated house games,,But he accidentally crossed.,For him,It's a pity.。

So. This time, he took advantage of the time and interest, so he first made this very deep house masterpiece in his memory, all of which was a brick throw, hoping that designers or players who also like this kind of game can design better house games.

And Claudia came to the United States a few times and also found out that Jester was secretly making this game by himself recently, and Jester was keeping it a secret from other people, but for his own woman, he didn't need to keep it a secret. And it's not an unsightly game.,Even the plot of this game is very touching.,Although it's an otaku masterpiece.,But according to Jester's understanding.。 Many female gamers also like this work very much.

It's like Jester's best female friend, if it weren't for her recommendation, Jester might have missed out on such a great game.

As expected, after reading Jester's script for the game's plot that he had already completed. Claudia was also moved to tears, and Jester asked her at the time, saying that this was a game with a very oriental plot. Can you really understand what I'm trying to say in it?

In exchange for that, it was a day and a night.

And the hardware problem of "Rally America" has also been solved in the past three months, and the progress of this project is also very rapid, and basically the development of the game program is close to completion, and Jester's idle time has not decreased, he continues to work on the niche game in his mouth without distraction, and the speculation in this game company is also different, and Yuji Naka, who is the only one who knows some of the content of this game, has made Jester give a gag order, so so far, Jester hasn't seen a version that fits his game in a good way.

Early one morning, Mark. Saini walked into Jester's office with a thick notebook.

During this time, Mark. Saini did not participate in specific game projects after the development of "Fire Emblem", and he was responsible for the evaluation of all project teams and third-party companies' games in the entire company, which also made Jester a lot easier, otherwise, Jester would not be so idle, but Mark has been idle for most of the year. Saini's hands were clearly itching again, and Jester had recently heard that he was working on a game as well.

He didn't really inquire about the content, but it should be an arcade game.

A game developed on the basis of the second version of the sixteen-bit arcade substrate that their company has just developed, in Jester's guess, may be the second part of "The Avengers", after all, this game is still very popular with players, and the ported version of the home console, although it cannot reproduce the essence of this game in its original form because of its function, it is still very popular with the players of this game, and the final sales are close to more than two million copies, as evidenced.

Moreover, the movie "Avengers" has been completed recently, and the production of the latter stage is underway, and the distribution company has also mentioned it to them, hoping that they will release a news that they are going to develop a sequel to this game to hype it up, it doesn't matter if you do it or not, you just need to release this news.

Jester didn't agree, though.

"Do you have a new game?" Jester put what he was writing into his folder before looking up and asking.

Mark. Saini didn't hide anything, he threw the thick stack of artwork in his hand onto Jester's table, and then he turned around and leaned back on the couch before replying, "Well, it's not Avengers 2, it's an idea you talked about when we were talking about the game "Avengers" in the first place. ”

Mark. Saini was very interested, but this matter was a long way gone, and besides, when Jester discussed games with others, he would occasionally say some ideas and ideas that were only available in later games. When Seni said this to him, he didn't think about it for a moment.

But Mark. Saini didn't care much either, he said directly: "At that time, didn't you say that you actually made these martial artists of various genres into a game, let them compete in a ring, and use the tricks of different genres to decide the winner, it is best to come from all over the world, and decide the strongest person in the world, that must be a very interesting thing!" ”

"Oh!"

After Mark. When Saini said this, Jester patted his head, and he remembered that he was giving Mark . It is best to add a few more protagonists with completely different styles, and it is best for each person to have a different identity, and the characters who are proficient in martial arts are also completely different, such as one is proficient in Muay Thai, another is proficient in kickboxing, the third is proficient in modern fighting, and one is proficient in Huaxia boxing......

Moreover, when he said this, he did think of the most popular fighting game in the arcade arcades of later generations. Saini said.

Of course, it was just a passing mention, but I didn't expect Mark. Saini really remembered it, and even in "The Avengers", he followed the way Jester said about the fighting game at the time, to make a fighting level, and Jester was also very sighing after playing, but although it was proved at the time that it was possible to complete a general fighting game according to the arcade function at the time, but it was complicated, I'm afraid it wouldn't work.

So, the plan for this fighting game was put on hold.

It's not that there are no fighting games on the market at present, and the sales of the incomparable "Kung Fu" seen on the FC before were very high. Saini also complained to Jester that if they made a fighting game according to the idea of "The Avengers", how could such a simple "Kung Fu" still be played? However, at that time, the sales of "Kung Fu" had exceeded one million copies, and it was extremely redundant to say these words.

Then EA also released a game about boxing on Dreambox, which is also a similar fighting game, but it is extremely primitive, it is in the first person, and the sales are surprisingly good, and it is the second best-selling one of EA on Dreambox.

"I got the number of our new substrate before, and I found that our new one is basically complete with the complex fighting game I originally planned to make, and there is no problem at all!"

Mark. Saini saw Jester thinking about something else, and the more he spoke, the more excited he became, "You can take a look at my project first, I have turned over all the information I accumulated when I was working on "The Avengers" in the past few days, and carefully read it, including the tapes of martial artists of various genres that I spent a lot of money to find at that time, and completed this setting. ”

"Fighting games?"

Jester thought that this was indeed a very good idea, their mature sixteen-bit substrate had been successfully developed, but he didn't hear from Capcom that their CPS1 was successful, but the beginning was definitely started, last time, when Capcom cooperated with him, he inadvertently said that it was a good idea, and there was no need to hide it, after all, it was just an arcade baseboard.

Will Mark. Saini picked up the materials on his desk and flipped through them, and Jester had to admit that the other party had done a good job.

But......

Jester didn't look long because there was no need for his teammates to understand the fighting game and knot Bimark. Saini, who had just had this concept, was much more than that, and he was straightforward about Mark. "Fighting games are a great idea, but your plan doesn't work," Saini said.
