Shigeru Miyamoto's award was actually expected.

While the other games are just as competitive, it's clear that Ocarina of Time is a cut above the rest.

Therefore, after Jester announced the final results, the vast majority of people in the scene had the same expressions as expected, and perhaps only the expressions of those who were also nominated candidates would be slightly disappointed.

Hideo Kojima, who was sitting with Shigeru Miyamoto, was the first to recover from the disappointment, he took the initiative to stand up and shake hands with Shigeru Miyamoto to congratulate, for Kojima, this "Spy on the Dragon" is just the beginning of the story of this series in his mind, and the story will be very long, maybe he will do three, or five, and he will be able to get the nomination for Game of the Year in the first one of his own re-production of the game, which is already a very successful thing for Kojima.

Although it is a pity that he did not win the final award, it is not empty-handed, after all, the award for best action/adventure game still fell into his hands.

In addition, Shigeru Miyamoto's "Flute of Zelda" is also a game that impresses him, and even he thinks that if Shigeru Miyamoto's game is placed in competition with Jester's "Hero" last year, then it is not without a chance of winning, because of some functional reasons, "Hero" is actually in the development of many interesting places for various reasons.

Because the primary purpose of this game is to create a world, and how to play it is not Jester's primary purpose.

On the other hand, "Zelda" is much stronger in terms of playability.

On the stage, when Shigeru Miyamoto received the trophy for the best game of the year from Jester's hand, Jester also congratulated him, and then Jester deliberately asked Shigeru Miyamoto: "As you know, Miyamoto, you have been taking a break for a while after the release of "Zelda: Ocarina of Time", do you have any new game development plans?" I think players must be very concerned about this news. ”

Unexpectedly, Shigeru Miyamoto smiled after hearing Jester's question. Then he countered Jester's army.

"I don't have any good ideas for the time being, just some immature ideas, in fact, I have some ideas for the game Balotelli, but you're going to make Balotelli's new work, so I don't dare to compete with you......" Originally, when I said this, the whole conversation process was a relatively normal Q&A, but at this moment, Miyamoto Shigeru's voice suddenly changed.

“…… But boss, speaking of which, it's not so much that players are looking forward to my new game, but rather that the people sitting under the stage are more concerned about an issue. I remember you saying that you were going to make some important announcements during GDC, and the secrecy was so high that I didn't even ask you what you were trying to say within the company. ”

Hearing Shigeru Miyamoto's anti-general's army, Jester was not angry.

He smiled too.

"Because there is no internal information at all, of course you can't find out, I just talked about it inadvertently with a few core members of the new development team, and I wasn't going to make it public, but I think it's better to let players know...... In fact, there is nothing too easy to say, and the content that players have guessed before cannot be said to be wrong. But that's only half right......"

Jester said as he pondered.

Shigeru Miyamoto heard Jester say this, and a curious look appeared on his face: "What others guessed before?" Guess what? Do you mean you're ......?"

Although Shigeru Miyamoto didn't finish his sentence, everyone at the scene still guessed what he wanted to say.

That is, because of the content of a certain interview, Jester was going to announce a news about his career on GDC. Because of this news, many speculated that Jester would announce that he would retire after this new game of Balotelli, but this news was some time before GDC was developed. was personally debunked by Jester.

Jester himself admitted that he did have plans to retire, but the new Balotelli was a new game. It was definitely not going to be his last, and his project for the game after Balotelli's new game was envisioned to be the biggest game he'd ever worked on, and he'd been preparing it for years.

So, a lot of people are speculating about what exactly the game is.

But after that, Jester kept silent about it.

But at this time, at the GDC Game of the Year awards ceremony, Jester said in front of developers around the world that his previous guess was not entirely wrong, and it really seemed to be heralding something.

"Yes, what I said above the player community of Mars Entertainment is true, Balotelli's new work, internally I call it 'Galaxy', and the name of the game will be called "Super Balotelli Galaxy" without accident, the game is still very Balotelli action - of course, the gameplay will be different from all the previous Balotelli series you have played, and even all the games, as for what is different, I can't say now, I can only say that I will know when the time comes."

"As for the games after Super Balotelli Galaxy...... I've been thinking about this project in my head for about five or six years, and I've written at least a few hundred thousand words over the years, and it's going to be the game I've worked on the most, so I'll call it a summary of my entire game development career. ”

"The meaning of this summary is also to clearly express my attitude towards this game, if nothing else, this will be the last game I have planned-as I said before, when all my understanding of video games becomes games, then I will not develop games anymore, and I feel that once the game in my mind comes out, I can retire without regrets."

"Finally, I want to make it clear that this is going to be a PC game, and Super Balotelli Galaxy is a console game, which means that my next two games will be the last console game in my game development career, and the last game, and that's all I say today. It's been a lot of deliberation, and I feel compelled to share my thoughts with everyone. ”

"And there's nothing to hide."

After Jester finished speaking, he bowed to the industry colleagues under the stage, and then the audience immediately stood up and gave Jester the warmest cheer of the GDC Awards Gala so far after being shocked by Jester's news for a few seconds.

After the cheers and applause calmed down, Jester said apologetically to Shigeru Miyamoto beside him: "I'm a little embarrassed to steal your limelight, but there will be the best prize later, I bet it must be yours!" He said. Jester smiled as he thought about Shigeru Miyamoto, who shook his head indifferently.

"It's a bit of a surprise and a suddenness that you decided to retire at such a young age......"

"I'm not young anymore, eighty-four years, fourteen years ago when I was nineteen, at that time I was imaginative and energetic~, now I'm thirty-three years old, waiting for the two games in the plan to finish. Maybe I'm over forty years old......"

After Jester finished speaking, he thanked the audience again, and then congratulated Shigeru Miyamoto again, and left the main ~ table.

And he's talking about an award. It's GDC's Lifetime Achievement Award.

It will only be awarded to the person who has made the most outstanding contribution to the entire video game industry, and Jester and Hiroshi Yamauchi have both won this highest individual award in the video game industry.

And this time......

With the guest of honor, the founder of EA. He is also the current president and CEO of EA. After the name on the envelope in his hand at the beginning of the year - Shigeru Miyamoto, this time the annual GDC event has also come to an end, and the biggest winner is undoubtedly Shigeru Miyamoto himself. But the hottest topic is not.

Speaking of which, Tripp. Hawkins is also a legendary figure, in 82 years left the thriving Apple to create EA, now EA is already the top three game companies in North America, the first is naturally the undoubted Mars Entertainment, and the second is who many people debate, but EA is the top three or can be recognized by the vast majority of people.

When leaving, Shigeru Miyamoto and Jester were naturally the people the reporters waiting for the interview wanted to interview the most, Shigeru Miyamoto was okay, but it was not so easy to interview Jester.

However, Jester seemed to be in a really good mood today, and he didn't let a few of his strong bodyguards stop the reporters who wanted to interview him, but waved his hand to let them all come over - and dozens of reporters rushed over at once, like a hundred birds and phoenixes, all around Jester, and they were just about to ask.

But Jester was the first to stop them.

"Time is limited, so I can't be interviewed by everyone, I can only answer a few questions, no one is limited to one question, my total number of questions is ten, I can count random people, who counts."

As soon as Jester finished speaking, he casually ordered a relatively young and beautiful female reporter.

And of course, the reporters don't dare to object, what is Jester's status in the game industry, and people of this status can already afford to let them interview them.

The female reporter who was pointed out by Jace didn't expect that she realized that she was the first person who could ask Jester a question, so she suddenly became excited, and even her tone became a little out of order, but Jester didn't care much, and took the initiative to correct a few mistakes of the other party.

"What I want to ask is probably what everyone wants to know, I don't know if you would like to divulge it, you said before that "Super Balotelli Galaxy" is the same as his previous series, the game type is still a very traditional action level for players - we understand this very well, because this is the biggest feature of Balotelli, but I am a little curious about what you said about your game after the Balotelli series, all your previous games can be said to have created a new game genre, so this new game of yours, Is it a game genre that has never appeared before? ”

After the female reporter finished asking, she looked at Jester expectantly, hoping that Jester would give an answer.

Of course, the answer is not to Jester.

Jester also doesn't promise that he'll answer all the questions, because at this stage, it's certainly impossible to say much about his new game.

After this question was asked, Jester first frowned, he hesitated a little, but after a little hesitation, he nodded, and said with a smile: "This question is very good, it happens that I can say this or not, what I can say is that this is not a new type of game, in the current market, there are at least seven or eight other games of this type, and I can't say too much about the others." ”

This answer is equivalent to saying nothing, but others can only be helpless.

As Jace answered one question after another, some of them simply said no comment, and soon came to the last question, which was asked by a reporter that had nothing to do with the game.

But his question is still of interest to many.

"Mr. Lee, thank you for giving me a plan to ask questions, but I'm not going to ask you about the game, I've got almost everything I want to know from the previous answers, and as for the rest I want to know, I know you won't answer, instead of wasting the opportunity to ask these questions, it's better to ask one that you are more likely to answer - you said that there are two more games in your development plan, so I'd love to know, if you have a new and really great inspiration in the meantime, So will it move on to a third game? If not, as a fan of you, you'd love to know what you'll do when you're done working on your game. ”

This question obviously focused the attention of many people present again.

These questions really have nothing to do with Jester's mysterious game, but they are still things that everyone wants to know.

"Huh."

Jester smiled: "It's hard to say no to the question, because I don't have any particularly good reasons to refuse, but it's not a problem to answer, but yours is two questions, which one do you want me to answer?" ”

He teased the other party at first, but Jester was obviously joking, and immediately, he continued: "Let's start with your first question, I said before that the reason why I'm not making games is because I feel like I've exhausted all my game ideas, and that's why I'm retiring, and if that happens, then I'll definitely go on to make a third game." ”

"The second question, I actually have other identities, as you all know, I am still the head of Manchester United~ seat, I have bought this team for almost ten years, and I have won many championships, but I have not had much time to pay attention to my team because of the game development over the years, so it is very likely that I will focus on this aspect in the future, of course, there may be others."
