Chapter 777: Refusal
“GBC! Jia Jun, your intelligence is very good, you even know confidential information like our Nintendo! Yamauchi Pu glanced at Boss Jia with some vigilance.
GBC is still in the state of research and development, it is a confidential project that Nintendo has just set up for a long time, and I didn't expect Jia Yapeng to know about it, which made Yamauchi Pu angry and annoyed, angry that Jia Yapeng actually secretly engaged in Nintendo's intelligence, and annoyed that his own people were so wasteful, and the information was leaked so easily.
"Yamauchi senior, don't be angry, like Nintendo, the most powerful company in the industry, of course, there will be countless pairs of eyes staring, we all want to know Nintendo's movements for the first time, after all, this is the lifeblood of all game companies, so we can't help but care!" Boss Jia said with a smile, and Yamauchi Pu suddenly felt a lot more comfortable when he said this, this invisible sycophant is so good!
"Okay, now that Jia Jun already knows the information of GBC, let's talk frankly, GBC is still in the early stages of research and development, if you want to really go on the market, I'm afraid it will take about a year or two, and it will be on sale in 97 at the earliest, is Jia Jun willing to delay the time of the second part of Pokemon until two years later, giving up such a precious time?" Yamauchi said with squinted eyes.
"Jia Jun, although you have made a lot of classic games, you are still a newcomer to the game industry after all, and you don't know much about the mentality of players."
"It's normal for players to like the new and hate the old, and no matter how good a game is, it will be forgotten by players after only two years or so. So if you want to ensure the freshness and memorability of our game in the eyes of players, then two years is the best time node, two years to launch a sequel to the game, otherwise after a long time, players will forget that there is still a game of "Pokemon" in the world! Yamauchi Pu said lightly.
"Hey......" Boss Jia sighed, and then the whole person seemed to fall into deep thought, which made Yamauchi Pu on the side a little nervous.
"Forget it!" After waiting for a while, I actually heard such an answer from Boss Jia's mouth, and Yamauchi Pu's face elongated on the spot, and at the same time, an angry flame was stored in Yamauchi Pu's head, ready to burn our Boss Jia into a piece of charcoal at any time.
"Why?" Yamauchi Pu asked with a cold face.
"Because in my opinion, compared with the reputation and quality of Pokemon, nothing else is important, and everything else can wait!" Boss Jia said with a serious face, "The function of GB has really been developed to the extreme in the first generation of Pokemon, if the second generation continues to be sold on the GB platform, then Pokemon 2 will become a skin-changing game with no innovation, just a layer of skin, then the excellent reputation accumulated from the first generation to the present will also collapse!" ”
"So I'd rather wait another two years to keep the Pokemon franchise in good faith!" Boss Jia finally said.
"Suck !!" Yamauchi Pu took a deep breath and calmed down his emotions, in fact, as a game developer, Yamauchi Pu understands Boss Jia's thoughts very well, and no one wants their 2nd generation game to have no improvement compared with the previous generation, which almost sends the game's reputation into the meat grinder, so Boss Jia's decision, Yamauchi Pu is completely understandable.
But now that his brother is alive and dead in Nintendo, Yamauchi Pu can't accept it, he doesn't care whether the reputation of the Pokemon series will be over, he only needs Nintendo to survive the most difficult year and a half, and wait until Nintendo's next-generation game console is born.
"However, although the Pokemon series cannot be released as a new game, we still have a lot of other games that can be released on the SFC platform, and I think it should be able to make up for the loss caused by the delay of the new Pokemon game!" Boss Jia suddenly opened his mouth and said with a smile.
"You guys have other games!" Yamauchi Pu glanced at Boss Jia with some surprise, he almost forgot that in addition to the trump card of "Pokemon", Daqian also has several other games.
One of the most popular is Sword Art Online, which has become Nintendo's most famous Japanese RPG after Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy, in addition to the puzzle exploration game of Tomb Raider, and the fighting game of Catalog of Forbidden Books.
Although these two games did not become the hits of the era, they were also at the level of masterpieces, and both achieved an astonishing result of more than one million sales.
Therefore, the achievements of Daqian Games in other aspects are still very amazing and cannot be ignored. And now listening to Jia Yapeng's tone, Daqian Games seems to have a new game to launch.
"Which games are you going to release this time, have you reviewed them for our Nintendo Games Department?" Yamauchi asked curiously.
"We've got a total of five different new games ready this time!" Boss Jia said with a smile, "If you review it, it should be submitted to Nintendo for review next month, I hope that Yamauchi's seniors will give me a face at that time, and don't give me all the time." ”
"Haha, that depends on the level of the game itself!" Yamauchi said with a smile, but a few drops of sweat couldn't help but flow down his head.
Oh my God, Daqian Games has actually come up with five new games, you must know that it has only been ten months since they last released three new games, and the production speed of this game is inevitably a little too prolific, which is faster than the speed at which Nintendo, which has three game development studios, develops new games.
"These five games won't all be rubbish, so if all of them can't pass the review, wouldn't it be a big loss of face!" Yamauchi even asked a little worried that these five games had passed the review.
Yamauchi didn't know how huge Daqian's game development department was now.
In addition to Team Rocket, a game development team focused on "Pokemon", Daqian also has two game development companies in Fuso, and Bilibili in China has also been split into two by Boss Jia and turned into two teams that basically operate independently.
One of the teams is focused on software, which is the team responsible for the development of software for various corporate departments in Fuso, and the other team is dedicated to the development of games.
The total number of programmers in Bilibili's game development team is actually about three times that of the software team, so you can imagine how much momentum Daqian is holding back in terms of games.
"By the way, this time the entire game industry plans to hold a huge game exhibition at the global level, which will be held in Los Angeles in the United States in July this year, do you plan to participate in Daqian Games?" Yamauchi Pu suddenly asked.
"And such an exhibition!" Boss Jia was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, this game exhibition held in Los Angeles in Yamauchi's mouth will not be the first E3 game show!
