Chapter 819: Aren't Pokemon Nintendo's

[PS: Today's eight watches]

"This B hall is so mysterious, in the past ten days, all of them have been blocked by fences, except for the construction personnel and staff, no one is allowed to enter, what is there inside!" Inside the Los Angeles International Exhibition Center, several staff members who were preparing in Hall A muttered.

These staff members, all of whom are workers of Mi Guoyi, were all dispatched by the company to their own booth in Hall A of the Los Angeles International Exhibition Center a few days ago, responsible for supervising the construction of the booth.

Although these staff members were sent to Los Angeles from Redwood City, California, and needed to be separated from their families for a long time, these staff members were not so sad, after all, it was easier to work in Los Angeles, and they only needed to supervise the workers to do things, tell them to put the platform a little tighter, and then put the posters flat and straight, and the other thing is that the posters should not be pasted wrongly, and the posters of different games should not be mixed together or something, anyway, they are some very easy jobs. In addition, they were able to benefit from a travel allowance, and these staff members were very satisfied.

And there are a lot of peers in Hall A, almost all of them are practitioners in the game industry, don't look at the game companies on weekdays, the competition is very fierce, but the employees are still very enthusiastic in private.

After all, most of them will change jobs in the future, and if you have a good relationship with people in the circle, there will definitely be extraordinary benefits in the future, so the staff of the game company present often get together to chat, eat or something, and they are also very aware of the situation between everyone.

For example, the largest area in Hall A is Nintendo, this company actually occupies one-third of the entire Hall A, but this is also something that can't be helped, after all, there are many games under Nintendo's hands, Mario Brothers, Pokemon, The Legend of Zelda, Kirby of the Stars, etc., more than a dozen popular games, and Nintendo is still a console manufacturer, for their consoles, Nintendo must also be hyped.

Anyway, in this era, Nintendo is the absolute hegemon of the entire game industry, and people's plates are the largest, occupying 1/3 of the entire exhibition hall, and there is nothing to say.

The second largest is about Sony, occupying 1/4 of the entire exhibition hall area, Sony is the world's most beautiful game company this year, they launched the PS game console, with invincible performance and cross-era 3D effect, completely defeated Nintendo's super fc console, but also the shit that Nintendo tried to take out is the VB game console to play all the shit has come out, anyway, now Sony is in the limelight all over the world.

This time E3, as everyone in the industry knows, is actually a big battle between Sony and Nintendo, to see whether the east wind overwhelms the west wind, or the west wind overwhelms the east wind, and everyone else is basically a spectator, by the way, exhibit their own products.

And the third largest enterprise in the venue is Electronic Arts, which is EA.

At this time, EA is the most transcendent enterprise, because EA is different from Sony and Nintendo, people are based on computer games, although because of the expensive price of personal computers, so the popularity rate is not high, even if it is a tall country, there are only more than 10 million personal computers in the country, so the sales of computer games are not too high, and it is already a top masterpiece to have a sales of hundreds of thousands.

And if the sales can exceed 1 million, it will be a cosmic masterpiece, the four masterpieces, Super Mario and Pokemon-level existence.

It stands to reason that EA's revenue in terms of games cannot be compared with Nintendo, after all, the market for computer games is so big, like console games, the number of various game consoles in the world has exceeded 300 million units.

But in fact, EA is second only to Nintendo in terms of game revenue, and even overtakes the current Daqian Games, becoming the second most profitable game company in the world.

The reason is simple, because EA has a lot of games, EA is a company, not to mention anything else, the speed of development and launch of this game is unparalleled, once launched 300 games in a year, this speed is almost one a day to launch.

In addition, EA also likes to acquire a large number of game companies and studios, especially those that have just become famous, so that EA has a large number of game IPs and game developers, making the scale of EA bigger and bigger.

In 1995, EA's annual game revenue was $2.2 billion, while Daqian's game revenue was only $1.2 billion.

These are the three game giants in the entire E3 game show, these three game giants occupy nearly 1/2 of the entire exhibition hall, and the remaining 1/2 is rated to hundreds of different game companies, which can be seen how huge the advantages and influence of these three game giants in the game field are.

This also makes the game employees of the Big Three very proud, while the employees of other game companies are very envious, fantasizing about how good it would be if they could also join the Big Three.

"By the way, do you know what's going on in Hall B? Strange and mysterious! During a chat between the employees of these game companies, an EA employee asked curiously.

"I don't know!" Everyone shook their heads.

"You don't know this, in fact, Hall B is also one of our E3 game showrooms!" Just when everyone was confused, only the employees of Nintendo had a knowing expression on their faces, obviously, they knew something inside.

"No way, if Hall B is also our showroom, then why fence it off? Won't let us in? We can also set up our exhibition in Hall B! Some employees of small game companies who were only able to shrink into a space of a dozen square meters or even a few square meters because they didn't grab much area suddenly shouted.

If Hall B is also a game exhibition hall this time, then they can run to Hall B, saving them from being squeezed by these game giants and even having no space.

"This is not good, although Hall B is indeed this exhibition hall, but the entire Hall B has been rented by others, and you are not qualified to enter!" Nintendo's employees said disdainfully.

"What, how is this possible! Hall B has an area of 10,000 square meters, which game company can package the entire Hall B! When some people from small game companies heard this, they immediately became stupid.

You know, the rent of Hall B is $50,000 a day, which is almost equivalent to the income of some small game companies for a month, or even a few months, which is too extravagant!

"Who is this company?" The employees of some large enterprises do not think it is impossible, after all, it is only 50,000 US dollars a day, and their own companies grit their teeth and fight to make money if they don't make money this year.

It's just that they can't think of which company this rich company is, the three giants of the game industry are already in Hall A, is there a game company in the world that is more bullish than the three giants?

"Didn't you notice that there is one less person from a game company among us?" Nintendo's employees smiled wryly.

"Who! I didn't find out! Everyone shook their heads, and they said that they really didn't know which company didn't come.

"Why are you so slow to react today? Didn't you notice that Daqian Games didn't come? In the end, Nintendo's employees could only solve the mystery.

"Daqian game? Haven't heard of it! In addition to the expressions of Sony and EA employees, many employees of small game companies were stupid, saying that they had never heard of this big game.

"Daqian Games is the company that developed Pokemon!" Nintendo's employee reluctantly added.

"What, didn't you guys develop Pokemon yourself?" The folks in these small gaming businesses are even more stupid.
