Inside Sega, those who participated in the production of the game "Shenmu" were not in a relaxed mood, and panic was probably the best description.

Yu Suzuki can lock himself in a small room, no one will say anything, but if others dare to lock himself in a small room, just wait to go to the underground to leave the room and pick up beans.

"Shenmu", a project that once made them proud, seems to have become something that they are avoiding at this moment. Everyone seems to have cleared their relationship with "Shenmu", but everyone dare not.

Because once you have cleared your relationship, although you are liberated, you will encounter a brand new problem. That is, Yu Suzuki and other bosses who participated in the "Shenmu" project have not yet washed themselves.

If you escape first, isn’t it equivalent to letting the leader take the blame?

So, everyone was in a heavy mood, but no one carried out the action.

After careful consideration, Yu Suzuki finally figured out something. The fact that Shenmue's sales are not as good as expected is impossible to make up for by technical means no matter what.

Since that's the case, it's better to admit it. While admitting it, it's better to achieve a role in promoting sales.

Since this is my ten-year dream, I have to be responsible for it!

Yu Suzuki had an idea, a promotional idea.

He wants to act in an advertisement, performing a series of advertisements about "Shenmu".

The format of the advertisement is almost the same. First of all, there must be an advertisement similar to a documentary to explain his motivation for making "Shenmu". This will allow those who have their own dreams to support themselves and support "Shenmu".

Secondly, it is to resolve the crisis by self-deprecating. As the producer of the game, Yu Suzuki stared at the story of "Shenmu", which was taken off the production line from the factory, but was piled up in the warehouse, and was ridiculed by the porters and fought back with the lines in the game.

With a combination of punches, even if you cannot succeed, it will at least prove that you have done what you should do.

In fact, when he reflected on it before, he also felt that the game "Shenmu" was not suitable for Sega's own gaming console platform.

Although Sega's own gaming console platform has always been second, compared with the first, the generation with the lowest sales in Japan has several times, and at most dozens or hundreds of times. Even under normal conditions, it is generally a gap of about ten times.

You know, buying a game is a mutual selection process.

The manufacturers who make games will create corresponding games based on their audience.

Players also vote in their own way with their wallets. They will buy and buy games that meet their expectations! They will know how to buy!

If they do not meet their expectations, they may be fooled and bought for a while, but they will never buy it again later.

oh!

By the way!

Yu Suzuki suddenly came up with a good idea!

Why not add a meeting voucher to the cassette?

As long as you get a meeting ticket inside the cassette packaging, you can meet Yu Suzuki himself and visit Sega with Yu Suzuki.

In this way, perhaps those pure arcade game fans may spend money to buy game CDs because they want to enter the Sega where they dream.

If Takahashi knew about his idea, Takahashi would definitely doubt whether Yu Suzuki was also a time traverser.

You should know that the best one to play with this hand is the record of the AKB48, a female group under Fatty Akimoto, which is the Akihabara 48.

In the 21st century, the Internet was already very developed, and many songs had already relied on the Internet to send messages, and the record market was declining.

Akihabara 48 can actually get more than one million sets of sales on every album, which is incredible.

However, it is easy to find that it is not that their fans really have such a wide range of people, but that the fans who shake hands with the young ladies in order to obtain random handshake tickets on the record keep buying records repeatedly.

Now, before the 21st century arrived, Yu Suzuki actually came up with the same solution.

However, Yu Suzuki is not a cute young lady, he is just an ordinary Japanese man, and the games he is good at launching are either racing or fighting. I believe there will be no female fans.

Therefore, there is no need to expect that players who play his game will actually buy disc copies of "Shenmu" to meet him.

As for the rest, it is probably a correction to the game quality.

However, it is not easy to correct game data in this era.

When the storm of the Internet era has not yet reached the electronic game industry, every game launched in the industry has been finalized. What it looks like when it comes out? Even if no one plays this game.

In order to pursue the playability of the game, major game manufacturers will perform a very complex calibration of their games before they are released.

However, even so, various loopholes that players can exploit cannot be avoided.

The same is true for "Shenmu". The problem of slow reading of disks is encountered because before the game was launched, I didn't expect that the performance of the home console was different from the performance of the test machine.

But the game has been released, so there is no room for modification.

unless……

For example, the Nintendo red and white machine handle started the recall program because the keys are designed to be square and are prone to high-frequency failures of the keys.

However, the problem is that after a single burn, the disc cannot be modified twice.

Could it be that the factory really needs to start producing Shenmue, which has solved many problems?

Although the unit price of CD manufacturing is compared to game cartridges, it can be described as free of charge.

However, from modifying all the errors, to entering the factory to making the mother piece and leaving the plate, to being transported to various stores, maybe after at least one month's process, players have completely given up on "Shenmu".

well!

never mind!

Let’s start with the advertisement!

In addition to the above two items, it should also be said in the advertisement that he has the meaning of correcting "Shenmu".

Takahashi, who had been observing all this secretly, ordered a special person to organize the records of Sega and Shenmue into an investigation report.

And, we began to lead the team to analyze why the game "Shenmu" failed? Is there any advantage?
