Because of "Gold Digger" and "Super Mario Bros.", entrepreneurs who said in the early stage, "Why are you messing with Nintendo and making some kids?" changed their words and wanted to enter the red and white machine platform to try it out. However, because of Nintendo's premium system and its closed certification system, those who want to make gold have nowhere to start, and they finally found Hudson.

In fact, from now on, there are no more companies that are dissatisfied with Nintendo's closed policy. Even Hudson, the beneficiary of Nintendo's premium system, is dissatisfied with the premium system.

It’s okay to share copyrights, but what makes third parties like Hudson feel the most painful is that the cassette manufacturing and distribution rights are in Nintendo. Nintendo first collected all the total amount of money for issuance. Not only is it opaque, but it also depends on your mood to ship it slowly...

Therefore, every time Hudson wants to release a new game on a red and white machine, he has to consume almost all his working capital. Not only that, he also has to borrow from time to time. If the bank had not given the good market conditions of the red and white machine, Hudson's credit rating was not low, where to find funds to make a cardboard would be a big problem.

However, compared to the praises from other manufacturers who have not obtained the rights to develop red and white game games, the grievances I suffered from Nintendo are indeed nothing.

Takahashi, who is very busy, is not really willing to attend this kind of year-end meeting that praises each other. It is not because he hates interpersonal communication, but because this kind of company that has not even entered the electronic game industry is really useless to him.

Compared to getting to know each other now, it is better to spend more time doing serious things and speaking with strength.

Even though he was the youngest person in this New Year-Ending Meeting, he was even underage according to the standards of 20 years old in Japan, no one underestimated him because of his performance on TV.

"Hey! Boy, what do you think of Nintendo?" The elder, who was slightly drunk and had a flushed face, didn't know if he was really drunk or deliberately made things difficult for him because of his drunkenness.

Yuji Kudo gave him a careful look, Takahashi nodded slightly, understanding it, and with his future knowledge, he certainly would not complain about Nintendo with these people. Instead, he felt that Nintendo's system was most suitable for the current electronic game market.

"What do I think of Nintendo? I think Nintendo is a powerful company, and I think the premium system is a good system." Takahashi said.

Before he finished speaking, the room, which was originally a little noisy, suddenly became quiet.

Yuji Kudo smiled bitterly. He was already used to Takahashi's style of not being astonishing, but in front of so many old seniors...

Fortunately, I didn't say bad things about Nintendo.

Yuji Kudo was generally satisfied with Takahashi's reaction.

He knew why the old president asked Takahashi, because he did not agree with their belittling Nintendo, so he wanted to use the young Takahashi as a breakthrough.

Young people are easily affected by the environment and are passionate. Everyone has been scolding Nintendo for more than half an hour. Due to this environment, young people will inevitably say something bad for Nintendo.

This is also a tradition in Japan. Don’t think that only in a company can there be reports behind the scenes.

Even if you are having a private party with people from other companies, you must pay attention to your words and deeds. Otherwise, when you block the other party’s interests, people will take out the secretly recorded small notebooks, choose and find a flaw, and put you to death.

If Takahashi and Yuji Kudo said bad things about Nintendo here, I believe that it will not take long before these bad things will be passed to Nintendo's current president, Hiroshi Yamauchi.

The temper of the old man Yamauchi is already a legend in the circle. He is enterprising and has a vicious means. It is enough to clean up all the old cadres of the old era in just one year of ascending to the position of president.

"Oh? Tell me." The old president's tone contained encouragement, but looking at his face, he seemed to be more drunk.

After all, Takahashi was the one who showed his face in front of tens of millions of people. Although he was on TV, he faced more than a thousand people during offline activities without any stage fright.

Although these presidents and presidents all have names, Takahashi doesn't care, and the pressure brought by the name naturally cannot be suppressed by them.

Takahashi sat upright, glanced at everyone, and then slowly spoke, "I think the current Nintendo system is the only feasible system in the electronic game industry today. You all know that North American games collapsed and Atari collapsed. How do you think the North American game market collapsed?"

Takahashi just paused for a moment and did not really give them time to answer. The answer he gave was also very simple, and he gently uttered three words, "No rules."

"I believe you have heard the saying that without rules, you can't be a square circumference. Don't think that consumers are fools, and children are easy to cheat. If the red and white machines are all inferior garbage games, will the red and white machines still make money like now? As for the system that you think is very hegemonic, this is how I think..."

Takahashi sold it for a moment before continuing, "What do you think is the most important thing about a gaming console? Fun games? Strong performance? I don't think it's the most important thing. I think the most important thing is the low price. It can't be said that fun games and powerful performance are not important, but the importance of low prices must be ahead of them.

Because only at a low price can machines become popular. Only when machines are popularized can games be bought more. When games are sold more, more people will make games, more people will be willing to make games, and more people will be willing to buy game consoles...

This is a virtuous positive cycle.

Perhaps, some people think it has nothing to do with the premium system, but I think it has something to do with it.

Only Nintendo can make cartridges. Is there any trick in it? Is Nintendo's money? There must be! But..."

Yuji Kudo's face changed a little at this moment. He agreed to praise him only and not to be sarcastic. If Nintendo knew about this... Oh my God...

"But, only one red and white machine costs how much. Everyone, 19,880 yen. They made the machine so low that it was to buy more people. They couldn't make money on hardware, so they would definitely make money from other places.

The same is true for the production cost of cassettes.

You can't just think about the large amount of machines and the number of cassettes that can be sold, so you don't think about how these are all come about.

Of course, this is somewhat from Nintendo's perspective.
