Chapter 756: Interview (2)

Qin Yuanfeng's hand gently brushed over the letters, and as soon as he turned the page, he couldn't help but chuckle.

In view of Mizuno's expression that instantly darkened but had to force a smile, he coughed dryly and continued to read.

"Is FAMI a professional game magazine? Why haven't I seen an ad for the inaugural meeting of 3DO until now? Qin Yuanfeng forced a smile to open a letter, and the Japanese strokes on it showed the author's extremely angry mentality: "I didn't go to Shanghai because I didn't win the prize." I've been watching the broadcast! What kind of game is that, do you know what kind of game it is? Why hasn't there been any reaction until now! ”

What a cute player...... What should I do, the party is in front of me, how can I break this inexplicable smile that I can't hold back?

Holding back a smile, he continued to open the next "It's been a month!" It's been a whole month! It's been such a tough month for hardcore gamers! Finally, I waited for this month's FAMI Pass, and I opened it with great anticipation...... No! Actually not! I didn't have it all the time! This game is enough to be a supergame in the gaming world, and there is no news at all! ”

"Poof...... cough cough cough ......"

The disguise was too obvious, Mizuno Yushi's face alternated between blue and black, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was very embarrassing.

I can't watch it anymore, and if I look at it any longer, Qin Yuanfeng estimates that he will really laugh.

What is debt evasion?

This is debt evasion!

Looking at these letters, he sincerely expressed sympathy, and his pot inexplicably flew to FAMITSU's body, and before he had time to announce it, the players were already unhappy.

Show us the beginning and want to leave?

Just go, don't say a word?

Dream!

Invisible pretending is the most deadly. This kind of faint and sour forcing style is simply not for outsiders.

"Brush ......" he gently put the envelope back in place and looked at Yushi Mizuno sympathetically: "Hehe...... Thank you for your hard work. ”

Hehe......

Mizuno Yushi just wants to hehe on his face, he has been urging everywhere this month, making appointments with the Qin Dynasty every day, and it has been delayed until now! For the first time in history, there has been no news on FAMI-com within a month of the release of a widely watched masterpiece!

Now, though, he doesn't want to do that at all. Closed his eyes and took a deep breath, a month of letters from players across the country chasing debts/debts can finally end today, as far as he knows, they are the only game magazine that has been received by the Qin Dynasty! As soon as today's interview is finished, he will issue a special issue tomorrow. At the FAMI Pass headquarters in Tokyo, in front of the fax machine, several team leaders were already on standby, and as soon as the interview was over, he would return to Japan to see the detailed interview script.

"President Qin. I think you understand our situation. Restraining his gritted teeth, he sighed and said, "If you don't send relevant news, I'm afraid FAMI will be surrounded." Not to say too much, Japanese players are the craziest players in the world right now. Some die-hard gamers have the same craving for a good game as a recent college graduate craves for a job...... Shall we get to the point? ”

"Yes." Qin Yuanfeng sorted out his mood and said with a smile.

I always felt that his smile was very bad...... Maybe it's because the editor-in-chief hasn't come to interview him in person for a long time...... The corners of Mizuno's mouth twitched, and a professional smile was piled up: "Then I just said, if this game can be made for sure, then its platform ......"

He looked into Qin Yuanfeng's eyes: "What I want to say is that the Qin Dynasty really made its fortune in the handheld, and before there was a handheld, your society was a well-known third party in the industry. And now the Qin Dynasty is finally going to start getting involved in TV games? If I'm not mistaken, this game can't be handed over to SFC and MD, right? Their functionality is completely out of par with the visual standards seen at the inaugural meeting of 3DO. ”

"Of course." Qin Yuanfeng nodded and said: "The Qin Dynasty is developing its own TV host, and Mr. Yokoi Junhei, one of the 'Three Masters of Hardware', is fully responsible, and I only have to allocate funds." This console has been in development for some time. ”

"Its main direction is 3D?" As the editor-in-chief of FAMITSU, Yushi Mizuno has no less knowledge and qualifications in the industry than the helmsmen of major companies, so he immediately asked.

"That's right." Qin Yuanfeng looked at him and said word by word: "The future is the era of 3D. ”

"3D is the first major technological advancement in electronic entertainment."

"Are you so sure?" Mizuno Yushi frowned unabashedly, and at this moment, his attitude was not like an interview, but like a chess opponent to discuss: "The pixel era has just progressed to the picture era, SFC, MD has just been released for more than a year, and you are now sure that the future trend is 3D?" ”

"With all due respect, 2D doesn't feel outdated. Oh...... By the way, your remarks reminded me of Ken Kuta, director of Sony's game department, and his opinion with Sony is also based on 3D and thinks it is the mainstream. However, they are laymen after all, and Nintendo, Sega, and the two first parties all believe that 2D is the mainstream. ”

"Layman?" Qin Yuanfeng smiled quietly and didn't say anything.

It was this layman, CES in '92, who came up with the prototype of PS. It was this layman who ended Nintendo's "Ren Empire." "It's this layman, their president dared to say in front of the world two years after the release of the first-generation god machine PS, that the electronic entertainment war is over.

At that time, Nintendo, Sega will not dare to open their mouths at all.

Because, they know the way. They found the right trend.

"I've got some of Nintendo's and Sega's comments on your game, ...... Any idea, do you know? Mizuno Yuzhi carefully observed Qin Yuanfeng's face and asked cautiously. As soon as he finished speaking, he added: "Although it's not very good." ”

Qin Yuanfeng raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled: "As a magazine, you actually know more about the expectations of ordinary players than we do. We are upstream, players are downstream, and you are the bridge of communication. I often read the feedback from FAMI players. Don't you know how much players are expecting? ”

"Of course we do." Mizuno Yushi smiled dryly: "However, Nintendo and Sega are not optimistic about your game. ”

"Let's talk about it." Qin Yuanfeng leaned back on the sofa and nodded casually.

Yushi Mizuno cleared his throat: "Both sides have the same opinion, they think that 2D is still the mainstream, and 3D technology is too advanced for players to accept. It may seem new at first, but when you get started, you will find that it is completely different from what you expected. The expectations at the beginning may be inflated, and I am afraid that it will reach an unprecedented number in view of the Qin Dynasty's momentum, but I don't think it will be able to surpass Super Mario. ”

"The most important thing about the game is the gameplay. A good game is only a good game. Relying on graphics, new technology, etc., these are all sensationalism. Only the real golden ideas need to rely on new technology and better picture music. Otherwise, it's a matter of sacrificing the basics. ”

Mizuno Yushi coughed lightly, looked at Qin Yuanfeng and said in a low voice, "This is the original painting of President Zhongshan and Director Yamauchi. ”

Qin Yuanfeng was silent for a while before he said with a smile: "The first sentence was said by Zhongshan Hayabusa, and the second sentence was said by Yamauchi Pu." ”

Mizuno Yushi smiled awkwardly, he didn't dare to call the two of them by name, just like the honorifics he used when he and Qin Yuanfeng spoke.

He clearly distinguishes who is upstream and who is downstream.

Qin Yuanfeng felt a little emotional, but he didn't say anything, just looked at the ceiling a little distractedly, and his fingers rhythmically and unconsciously tapped on the armrests of the sofa without saying a word.

History has not changed much because of his crossing, or rather, events have changed, but people have not changed.

He remembers very clearly that at CES in 92, Sony took out the original version of PS, and Nintendo immediately accused the other party of various crimes, including plagiarism, stealing trade secrets, etc. The two companies began a tear-up war that lasted for more than a year. And this forced tear was so tragic that Oga Norio Yamauchi Pu tore apart from the air, and the origin is that the positioning of the game console is different.

Sony is taking a high-end path, they recognize that 3D will be popular, Nintendo is not, Qin Yuanfeng himself is a dog, since he played Pokemon in college, he is out of control, he knows very well that this company, as long as you are familiar with it, will find it a rule: it never takes the initiative to change.

It will only change if circumstances force it to change.

Originally, Nintendo knew that Sony had plagiarized SFC's drawings, and it didn't plan to appeal, because the mall was headed by a sharp word. Qin Yuanfeng searched his memory, and if he remembered correctly, Yamauchi Pu and Oga Norio, and Kuda Ragiki Ken had a secret conversation after the plagiarism incident. As a result, it was a happy parting. Since then, the two have drifted apart on the road of tearing.

What a model of love and killing...... He couldn't help but smile and shook his head, picked up the coffee cup and took a sip.

When I came in and was in this position, I had a different feeling when I saw these things.

I have a new understanding of these things, for the parties involved, and for the seemingly unreasonable choices they made at that time.

He has always been very incomprehensible, 3D is obviously more eye-catching than 2D, and according to Ken Kutaragi, the father of PS, it is written in the memoirs of the father of PS that Sony had the technology to make FF9 at that time, but they did not rush in, or that sentence, Sony's brand will not work here. The player doesn't recognize it at all. They wanted to use Nintendo's name to work together on consoles.

What he didn't understand was, why didn't Pu Yamauchi choose PS at that time? Instead, it developed its own successor to the SFC, the N64?

This is the difference between 3D and 2D, and the fundamental philosophy of the two companies. Nintendo started with 2D and didn't want to give up, Sony was in a hurry to enter and promote the "disc plan," so as to break away from the Mitsui consortium, how could the two get along?

Yamauchi insisted that 2D is the mainstream, and SFC's successor model N64 is also based on 2D, supplemented by 3D. It's not just him, it's Sega too!

He still remembers the first console he bought at that time.

Not PS, but SS! Sega's fifth-generation console, Saturn! SEGASaturn!

It's just that this time, they all got it wrong, Sony, a newcomer to electronic entertainment, bet right, 3D completely overturned the entire electronic entertainment market under the bombardment of Resident Evil and then Final Fantasy!

Thinking of this, he collected his thoughts, and a sneer hung on the corner of his mouth.

Last time, it was Sony. This time, it's my turn, right?

The same 92 years, the same 2D vs. 3D. This time, the answer sheet is even more magnificent than the last time!
