Game Development Giant

The broadcast of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon caused a certain sensation in the ratings. Jester received a call from his friend at AB in the evening. The ratings at the end of the first episode reached the average ratings of Transformers. By the time the second episode aired, the ratings of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were already approaching the peak ratings of Transformers.

Although Jester had people do a lot of publicity work before, coupled with the popularity of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comic itself, Jester is still very satisfied with reaching this rating, which shows that he plans to set up a The plan of a film and television company that specializes in shooting this kind of cartoons is very feasible. The development of copyrights between each other is very promising and very promising. Moreover, if you don’t do it yourself, just sit back and watch your own game copyrights create It would be a pity if the profits were lost in vain.

The next two months were unremarkable for Jester. During this period, the only thing that could make him pay a little attention might be the official release of Dawn. However, he has now released his own home console. The success of the release of this arcade machine no longer makes him particularly excited, even though it is his first game with a perfect score.

After the official release of Dawn of Dawn, relying on the popularity accumulated before, the 8,000 substrates previously prepared for this were sold out on the first day, and after players played it, the vast majority of players were interested in this game. Reviews of this game are full of praise for this game. The completely incredible explosion special effects, the unique gameplay of DIY assembly of weapon systems, and the way you can choose your own game characters and game fighters are even more amazing. . Faced with this situation, Game immediately began to ridicule with full force. After all, the previous ridicule of Famitsu, although it was about the game Dawn, the master drunkard didn't mean to drink. Everyone can hear that they are mocking Game for not being professional enough. This is especially true for most of the young people in Game magazine, and even the editor-in-chief is under 30 years old. The most intolerable.

And the quality of Dawn is obvious to all, as if this is not a game that should appear in this era. Compare it with it. Needless to say, 1942, which Capcom became famous for, helped Namco build dozens of floors. Gaolou's Iron Plate, or Mars Entertainment's own Sandman that swept across North America as soon as it was released. In terms of vertical scrolling flight shooting games, Dawn has almost reached what can be achieved in this era. peak.

As soon as this game came out, all players who had played it suddenly discovered that Mars Entertainment seemed to have accomplished everything that a game designer could accomplish in this type of game, and they could no longer even imagine what other functions they could add. , or how to change it to make this game more fun, which did not exist before. And Famitsu was amidst this kind of siege and ridicule, especially after Akebono swept across Japan and turned 1942, which previously dominated the arcades, into a game that no one cares about. Two issues later, they devoted a lot of space to introducing this game that has long been addicted to Japanese players.

In this weekly magazine, Famitsu tried their best to analyze Dawn from all aspects. This time they did not dare to risk the world's disapproval, but praise also comes in different ways. They first acknowledged it a little They are wrong in making inaccurate judgments without having played the game. Then they also said that the game Dawn is a very good game and can be compared with Avengers.

Although Famitsu didn't make it clear in this issue, you can still clearly see what they mean. The game is a good game. They didn't say it, but at most it's 39 points like Avengers. The works cannot be given full marks at all.

If Famitsu can point out some flaws, it doesn't matter. However, they always say in articles that although the graphics are great, there are still shortcomings, and they don't mention the shortcomings, saying that the combat system is very novel and very good. It's interesting, but it can still be improved, but it doesn't explain how to improve it. This kind of weak criticism will not win the approval of the players at all.

However, people who are familiar with the style of Famitsu also know that this is actually a sign of the magazine admitting defeat. However, for a magazine with strong influence in the industry, it is obviously impossible for them to openly admit their mistakes.

Fortunately, the beta version of Nintendo's was completed ahead of schedule, which made Famitsu breathe a big sigh of relief.

This news also surprised Jester. What he didn't expect was that the development progress of was completely faster than he imagined. Although it is only a test version now, it can only be truly finalized after several tests and corrections. Edition, this period may take more than a month or even two months, but Jester also clearly felt that the emotions of his employees were obviously tense.

For Japanese players, the authority of Famitsu is equivalent to Game in the eyes of European and American players, and before the magazine Famitsu became independent, its full name was Fami News, and Nintendo The full name of the f game console is fami. This was originally a magazine specially published for f games because of the popularity of f. They changed the name to fami just because it was too one-sided to only report on f games. Just better independence.

Therefore, the close relationship between this magazine and Nintendo is unusual, and Famitsu got a copy just after Nintendo completed the first beta version of .

For this game, both Nintendo and Famitsu, which has just been embarrassed by the game Dawn, have high hopes. Nintendo wants to use this game to make a beautiful start in the North American market. The Empire Strikes Back, and Famitsu wants to rely on this game to win back against Game.

Shigeru Miyamoto is a true genius, and the current Nintendo Information and Development Headquarters is also filled with elites who are very talented in game development. Jester has no doubt about this.

This time Nintendo's test was very mysterious. Only a very small number of copies were released to the outside world. The number of copies was less than 20 times. Only people or companies with a very close relationship with Nintendo were able to get it. Others were invited. , you need to go to Nintendo's headquarters to experience this game, which Nintendo quoted the word next era used by Jester at the es exhibition to describe it.

In Famitsu's editorial department, after getting this copy of Nintendo's cassette, they still need to abide by Nintendo's confidentiality rules. Except for a few review editors in the editorial department, it must not be leaked, and Nintendo will keep A dedicated person will be on duty so that this copy will never allow people without rights to stand out.

There is no doubt about the excellence of . Many settings of this game have historically laid the rules for subsequent RPG games, and in this era, there is no exception.

When the test editor of Famitsu worked all night to pass the game , the four of them could not hide their inner excitement. This excitement was even stronger than when they played Dawn before. There are many. Tetsuzaburo Ono is a review editor at Famitsu, and he is the most senior one. If it were not for his status as a senior editor, he would not have the chance to get this Ser in Japan, which has a clear distinction between superiority and inferiority. Opportunities for assessment.

But when he actually played it, he realized that even paying for Ginza Kyubey's sushi once was very worthwhile for this game.

Ginza Kyubey is the best and, of course, the most expensive sushi restaurant in Japan. This sushi restaurant is even more famous than the Sukiyabashi Jiro sushi restaurant owned by the god of sushi Ono Jiro. After all, now Ono Jiro is only in his fifties, and he is far from becoming the sushi god known as Japan's national treasure in later generations.

Tetsujiro Ono still remembers the time when he played Dawn for the first time not long ago, and when he played Avengers earlier, and even Balotelli's Adventures in Another World. Instead of feeling lucky to be able to play such an outstanding game, he felt a sense of sadness. He found with some despair that compared with the incredible games produced by Mars Entertainment one after another, their Japanese game producers Those are not surprising at all.

There are even times when he has just played a game from a Japanese manufacturer and found it somewhat innovative and fun, so he wrote an article to praise it and at the same time allow more gamers to play it. An excellent game, but after he played another game just released by Mars Entertainment, he looked at the article he had just written and felt that every word was so dazzling. Then, he wrote this article The article was completely torn into pieces.

Because the gap is really too big.
