The celebration of the first anniversary of GameGear's launch has been postponed to July, when Japanese schools are set out for a centralized holiday.

Under the leadership of Tajiri, another green version of Pokemon was launched on GameGear earlier this year, which also sparked a rush of purchases, which was expected.

In addition, there is the design of Pokemon battle cards, and the Dragon Teng Company specially invited the card design team of the Parker Brothers from the United States to stay at the Dragon Teng headquarters in the capital for two months, and together with Tajiri Tomosugi Moriken, designed a reasonable set of battle cards.

Yang Yun didn't intervene in this matter, because his knowledge of card games was only in Bang! , Three Kingdoms, and Magic and Hearthstone, there is not much understanding of Pokemon Battle Cards, Yu-Gi-Oh Battle Cards, and other anime and game extension products.

Fortunately, this gold-absorbing weapon was finally designed by Tajiri and others, and it is also ready to be launched at the anniversary.

In addition, at this celebration conference, in addition to the arcade game Battle of Chibi, which happened to be offline, and Yagami, the protagonist of the King of Fighters 92, there was another blockbuster news.

The Pokemon movie lasted 11 months and was finally made by Studio Ghibli!

Since the launch of Pokemon in June 1990, the anime movie adapted from this game has become an extremely anticipated work for Pokemon fans around the world, and every once in a while, Yokemon fans will call Fengyun to ask when the next version of Pokemon will be launched, when the anime movie will be released, and when the theatrical version of the manga will be serialized on TV stations.

Now that the new Pokemon version and cards have been made, it's finally Miyazaki's turn. The long-awaited Pokemon movie is scheduled to be released during the summer vacation in Japan, with a public premiere on the anniversary of the GameGear Festival.

The news. It has aroused great interest among all Shijie Pokemon fans, as you can imagine. A new version of the Pokemon game, a new battle card, and a well-crafted anime movie, these three items will make a lot of money this summer!

Sega has someone to do the preparations for the celebration, and Yang Yun can directly participate in it at that time, and he doesn't have to worry about everything.

He was now sitting in the president's office of Sega, looking at the veterans of the various branches below, trying to convince them to accept his resolution.

GameGear listing anniversary, Zhang Guoqiang. Inoue Yanxiong and Fang Jindong, the three architects who have been stationed at Longteng's headquarters all the year round, have been invited to Tokyo, not to mention Zhao Yongping, Yang Yun's most powerful assistant is also here to give advice.

In addition, Jiang Shaoyun of Longteng Toy Company in the United States flew over, plus Wang Zhe and Ma Liang of Fengyun Game Software Company, Hayabusa Nakayama of Sega, Xiao Liangyu of Longteng French Branch, except for Yang Zhan, who stayed in Canada to negotiate the acquisition, these nine people present can be said to be the core senior managers of Longteng.

There are three big things in total. But all three topics are heavy.

One is that the Japanese government contacted Fengyun Game Software Company and proposed to purchase a batch of cassettes for escape games, but it cannot restrict the game platform, that is. It is necessary to make two versions, MD and SFC.

The second topic was raised by Yang Yun, who intends to package Sega's arcade game department as a whole within two years. Only the Sega Hardware R&D Center is retained, but all Sega arcade games and copyrights are sold.

The third topic is about Sony's partnership with Sega. The relationship between the two companies is at a crossroads, and Yang Yun needs to make a decision on where to go.

"Tell me about it. For the Japanese government's procurement, do we support it, or do we give it up? Yang Yun looked at these nine senior managers and was very relieved that having this group of capable subordinates to assist him saved him a lot of things.

Escape games have won the favor of the Japanese government, which is a good thing, and the Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, and Culture is interested in the version of popular science games produced for Chinese mainland, which proves that Yang Yun's original decision is right, focusing on popular science education for teenagers, escape games with escape brochures, schools arrange escape drill courses, and multi-faceted combined education can achieve the best publicity effect.

However, the government procurator proposed to make some changes, such as increasing the role of earthquake escape, removing highways and other content, and expanding it into two versions, MD and SFC, so that it can cover all regions of Japan to the greatest extent without being restricted by the platform.

"The promotion and compliance of Japan's traffic safety law is very effective, but the earthquake is frequent, and their requests are reasonable, and we should be fully considerate of our customers." Wang Zhe agreed, and no one else had any objection to this.

The key is the production of two versions of cross-platform, which has sparked a dispute among everyone.

Sega and Nintendo are not dying, and if the game can be cross-platform, it is equivalent to recoding it on the SFC platform to make another new game.

In order to prevent leaks, the code had to be in their own hands, which meant that Sega's programmers had to relearn the SFC development kit.

This is the Hereafter. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN .NET AND JAVA CODE, ALTHOUGH EVERYONE IS THE UNDERLYING PROGRAM CODE, BUT THE DEVELOPMENT TOOLS ARE DIFFERENT, AND IT IS LABORIOUS TO START OVER THE TUITION TIME, AND THE DEVELOPMENT HABITS HAVE TO BE CHANGED, WHICH IS VERY TROUBLESOME.

"The Japanese government's procurement is not mandatory, and we can ignore it." Jiang Shaoyun has been in the United States for a long time, and his thinking has gradually become more democratic, in his opinion, if he operates legally and pays taxes normally, then he should be protected by the law, even if it is government procurement, he cannot impose his will.

Xiao Liangyu, who has been in Europe and the United States for a long time, has a very good feeling for the word democracy, and loves to talk about the Fa in everything.

On the Chinese side, people like Fang Jindong and Zhang Guoqiang are troublesome and unwilling to let their products appear in the hands of hostile companies, and they are also opposed.

But the Japanese are willing to cross platforms, Inoue Yoshio and Nakayama Hayao agreed, they very much hope that Japanese children can get more escape education, even if it is tired, troublesome, no matter how hard they work, overtime production is, if you are worried about the safety of the source code, Hayao Nakayama is willing to personally lead the team to supervise, to ensure that it will not be leaked.

"Mr. Yang, I think it is necessary to make cross-platform production, for the sake of children this is one thing, in addition, after our escape game is covered on all platforms, the 3D version will be upgraded in the future, and the first thing that the Japanese government will think of will be us." Zhao Yongping reminded Yang Yun with a word.

Yes! Zhao Yongping is right!

The 3D version has very high requirements for the game interface and image,16-bit MD platform is definitely not achievable,To the 32-bit home console era,Sega Saturn's competitors are Nintendo's N64 and Sony's PS,3D version of the escape game If you want to continue to promote,Sega will have the opportunity to get more graphics processing from Nintendo and Sony,Just make up for their shortcomings!

Hum...... Although the Japanese government has not enforced the approach, we at Sega have taken the initiative to open up the platform, and Sony and Nintendo, as pure Japanese companies, will refuse to cooperate? As long as Sega has access to the underlying code, the copycat experts led by Tian Haoqiang may be able to get what they want!

"Mr. Yang, there's no need to do this, we can't give Nintendo any respite!"

"That's it, let's provide the Japanese government with more low-cost MD consoles and let them vigorously promote them, which is better than adding a game to the Nintendo platform!"

Many people comforted Yang Yun like this, but he made up his mind: "Don't fight, let's do cross-platform." However, President Zhongshan, Wang Zhe, you two must be staring at death, the source code must be in your own hands, and the designers must also be sent by our Sega.

And we'd better sign a 10-year, 20-year long-term contract with the Japanese government, we will exclusively provide them with the most haode educational products, and when we do 3D versions in the future, if we have a short board of image processing, I hope that the government will come forward to coordinate this matter, and coordinate with Nintendo or other game platforms! ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone understood what Yang Yun meant, showed a smile of understanding, and after thinking about it, they no longer objected.

In terms of knowledge, the biggest difference between everyone sitting here and Yang Yun is that only Yang Yun knows the difference between Sega and its competitors in the future, the disadvantages of Sega products, and the advantages of competitors, so he can think of things that others can't consider for the time being, while others can only make inferences based on the existing situation.

Just now Yang Yun said that Sega may have shortcomings in image processing, and others only think that Yang Yun is taking precautions, who knows that this is the real thing?

This is the benefit of rebirth, Yang Yun breathed a sigh of relief and continued to discuss.

The second topic, Yang Yun's plan to sell Sega's arcade game division as a whole within two years, has aroused opposition from almost everyone as soon as this topic is raised.

"No, you can't! Arcade games are Sega's most professional and core content, and I firmly oppose selling them! "Hayayao Nakayama was the one who reacted the most, and the professionalism of Sega games was very well demonstrated at the arcade games.

All of Sega's latest jishu are implemented on arcade substrates and then slowly ported to video game consoles, a pattern that has been summarized over the years.

Wang Zhe also persuaded: "Mr. Yang, Fengyun Game Company also started to open the market from arcades, although arcades do not make money from TV games, but what they earn is popularity!" ”

Ma Liang said pitifully: "We just made the Battle of Chibi, do we have to sell it so quickly?" ”

"Yes! Mr. Yang, so many classic games, famous generals, Snowman Brothers, Samurai of the Round Table, The King of Fighters series, Battle of Red Cliffs, and Contra series, do you sell them if you say they are sold? ”

Everyone persuaded one after another, hoping that Yang Yun would retract this decision. (To be continued......)
