Chapter 79 Creativity is throbbing

Some people dream of dominating the whole country, while others dominate the whole country in reality.

"Tetris" can be said to be the first time in Wanhu's history that a three-platform linkage game was launched. The arcade version of "Tetris" has just been released. The already produced red and white version of "Tetris" has been sent to the Nintendo headquarters in Kyoto.

Nintendo, which is still improving the system, recently launched a new commercial law. It is that game reviews require fees, and each charge is not understood according to the type of game, ranging from millions of yen to tens of millions of yen.

Nintendo also made it clear that the reason for the charge is that there are too many games recently, and you have to charge money to maintain the operation of Mario Club, otherwise the review speed of the game will be greatly slowed down. No one wants to see such a situation, right?

No matter how many times they cursed Nintendo and Yamauchi’s old thief, the game manufacturers still paid for it obediently. There is no way, who made the Red and White Machine the most in-house platform in the home machine market now?

The platform starts with price. Manufacturers like Namco that cannot stand Nintendo's domineering style can only secretly join forces with other manufacturers to develop a new console. Before that, they all have to follow Nintendo.

Arcade manufacturers such as Namco and Taidong are different from Nintendo, that is, their technical accumulation is much stronger than Nintendo.

Nintendo has been outsourcing the hardware level since its first arcade and first home machine. The engineering students of Yokoi Yokoi and Masayuki Uemura, etc., are more about industrial design and ergonomics.

They proposed what the machine should look like, and the outsourcing company is responsible for making actual products. What ideas are fantasy, what can be put into real things, and what are not suitable for industrial production and need to be abandoned. This is the second thing that Yokoi Junhei and Masayuki Uemura - communication and coordination.

It’s not that Nintendo doesn’t want to stay up to date and best in hardware, they also know that consumers always like the most advanced electronics.

Otherwise, there is already a Casio calculator with normal functions and can perform complex calculations. Why buy a Sharp calculator with solar panels that can run without batteries?

However, Nintendo cannot do it. Their current size and their technical strength do not allow them to design the best hardware.

Even if it is designed, production is a big problem.

Apart from its own factory, Nintendo has no factory to produce physical products. Nintendo, which uses all OEM factories, cannot manage the supply chain and production chain like other manufacturers, so as to be at ease.

Therefore, Nintendo chose to use backward hardware to provide users with the best service.

Although the hardware functions are limited, gaming consoles made with people-oriented and based on this idea have always been very popular since gaming watches.

价格低廉,好玩,体验好.

This is the product feature of Nintendo and it is also Nintendo's moat.

Others want to imitate Nintendo's Cross Key, but Nintendo infringes on patents. Therefore, at this stage, the best way to use the Cross Key, can only be used by Nintendo. If others want to use it, wait for the patent expires for twenty years.

Although the new system says that those who pay money will be reviewed, the review will still have to be paid for the review again.

但是,并不意味着只要交钱了,就能享受最快速度的审核.

实际上,除了哈德森,南梦宫,太东,科乐美,这几个巨头外,剩下能享受优先审核权的就只有万户了.

不是万户多有钱能够影响到任天堂,而是万户制作游戏的方向,更符合任天堂的游戏设计思路.

No matter how well you walk, it is not considered a skill. However, if you walk a path that others have never walked, you walk quite beautifully, that is an enviable ability.

之前万户街机时代的游戏作品,就充满了创意.做前人所未做.而加入红白机阵营的第一部游戏《无尽幻想》,又是曰本市场首次出现的角色扮演类型.

首部销量就高达五十万套,虽然最大的几家第三方手上都曾有过百万销量的红白机游戏.

但是,想《无尽幻想》这种可持续发展性质如此强的新作,还真是一个都没有.

《淘金者》第一作能有百万销量,那是天时地利人和.如今的玩家已经今非昔比,见过的游戏不知凡几.

哈德森用《淘金者锦标赛》圈了一波钱后,不再继续开发续作,不是他们良心发现,而是市场上已经没有了第二部《淘金者》正统续作的存在空间了.

The same is true for Namco's "Pac-Man" and Taidong's "Space Invaders". However, from "Space Invaders", Namco inherited and developed the king of "Iron Plate Array" that vertical scroll shooting, and transplanted it to red and white aircraft, which had sales exceed one million.

因此,状况要比其它两位友商要好不少.

而科纳米只是以老前辈的身份,在红白机上有一个好位置.至于真正在红白机上畅销的游戏,他们旗下还真没有.

唯一在家用主机平台上大火的游戏,还是无心插柳柳成荫的msx平台上的《合金装备》.

But the infiltrating gameplay is completely impossible to transplant to the red and white machine.

They are now trying to port several popular shooting games on the arcade to the red and white machine. However, it is still unknown whether they can achieve good results on the red and white machine, which is full of dark elements.

作为马里奥之父的宫本茂,是这次马里奥俱乐部负责审核《俄罗斯方块》的审核员之一.

而他身边,则是另外一位年轻人.这名年轻人在游戏设计上颇有心得,是宫本茂的得力助手之一.

他作为宫本茂的记录副手,看着宫本茂玩着《俄罗斯方块》,脑海中突然有了一个全新的游戏构型.

All the tiles in the game "Tetris" are composed of four small pieces, whether they are the four parallel lines of "i", the four "fields" stacked into squares, the "t" protruding one piece, or the "l" in two directions.

他看宫本茂放下了手柄说道,“部长,我有了一个新的游戏想法.”

“哦?你说说看?”

After he finished speaking his thoughts, Miyamoto thought for a while and said, "No problem, this idea is good, it's time for you to make a game. Well... Although it's difficult to apply, I want to add Mario elements, so it's easy to apply. This game is called "Doctor Mary". What do you think?"

"Thank you, Minister!" The young man was extremely grateful for the support of the minister who was no older than him and was no more than two years older than him.

It is the "Donkey Kong" series spin-off game "Mario" series, and there is another derivative work. A huge Mario game family is taking shape without realizing it.

The emergence of Tetris has made many gamers thrilling creativity.
