“President, did you really let me come forward? Can I really walk in front of you?” Satoshi Tajiri asked cautiously at the door of a building.

“It’s okay, now I am your Secretary!” Boss Jia laughed and said, “I know that you have a good relationship with some of Nintendo’s high-level executives. You are much better than me if you come forward!”

“I see!” Satoshi Tajiri nodded, relaxed, took Boss Jia into the Nintendo building.

After the game is finished, the most important thing is to pass Nintendo’s review, and then sell your game on Nintendo’s GB.

This is very important to Boss Jia. Some people may be surprised that Boss Jia does not already have its own Bookworm Jr., why can’t it be sold on Bookworm Jr.? Why do you have to sell it on GB? Isn’t this giving money to Japanese to earn?

To be fair, if Bookworm Jr. is now popular all over the world, and there is a handheld version, then Boss Jia will definitely choose to sell it on Bookworm Jr.

But the problem is that now Bookworm Jr. is the only one in China. Boss Jia is very self-aware. At least before the new generation of game consoles comes out, Boss Jia has no ability to compete with Nintendo for the world’s first game console. Opportunity.

So Boss Jia must now cooperate with Nintendo. With Nintendo’s hands, the entire “Pokemon” will be distributed to the world, so that all Nintendo users can become “Pokemon” players, then wait until the real next-generation host When the tide comes, Boss Jia will have a set of interesting show operations.

Therefore, it is very important to log in to Nintendo now. No mistakes are allowed. That’s why Boss Jia let Satoshi Tajiri take the lead. He just plays the role of Secretary by Satoshi Tajiri’s side.

After all, in another era, this task was also completed by Satoshi Tajiri, so it is better not to flap the wings of this butterfly as much as possible for Boss Jia.

In later generations, publishing a computer game is actually very simple. If it is a large company, it has its own distribution channels.

If it is an independent small company, go directly to a game platform such as STEAM, then register a developer account, and upload it directly to STEAM through the network. Then, you only need to wait for the other party’s review before you can directly use the STEAM platform to list.

The review of STEAM itself is very loose, generally speaking, as long as it does not involve racial discrimination or serious azure, it can be reviewed and put on the shelf.

But if it’s a console game, it will be a headache.

Especially in 93, when the Nintendo family was dominant, it was even more troublesome to be successful.

First of all, you need to prove your developer’s strength. Simply put, it is to pay a sum of money to Nintendo as a collateral to prove that you are a capable company, not just a company that sells it, and can afford subsequent game services. Damaged his Nintendo’s reputation.

It’s like the deposit given to the landlord when renting a house. If you damage Nintendo’s reputation, then Nintendo will deduct the deposit.

Well, in theory, if you don’t give Nintendo to continue developing, then Nintendo will refund the money to you. But in actual operation, hehe, it will be more troublesome. According to the contract, Nintendo has 100 ways to deduct your money.

Then there is the review of works. This process is actually a bit complicated, as long as it can be divided into three stages.

The first stage is the stability review of the game. Nintendo will send 1-3 staff members. Their task is to repeatedly play your game, play various tricks, and determine the stability of the game. There will be a lot of vicious BUG.

There is nothing wrong with this review itself, but the problem is that the salary of these 3~5 staff members is not paid by Nintendo, and the developer is responsible.

Then there is the review of professional game editors. These two steps are actually the same. Those 2-3 staff members are professional game editors. They make a basic score for the game based on various experiences in the game.

The full score is 100 points. If the final score of these game editors does not exceed 60 points, then the game will be stuck in step 2.

Third Step is the review by Nintendo’s senior executives. Generally speaking, the director of the game publishing department is responsible for the final review. As long as the director is nodded, the review of the game is completed.

However, it is said that Hiroshi Yamauchi, the chairman of Nintendo, is actually very involved in this matter, and even 80% of the games are personally reviewed and approved by Hiroshi Yamauchi. If there is no nodded by Hiroshi Yamauchi, a game is impossible to publish on Nintendo. of.

In the words of Hiroshi Yamauchi, don’t worry too much about the performance of the game console, as long as it is enough.

What really determines the sales of a game console is the games in the game console camp. Only if it is full of interesting, stable, and a large number of high-quality games can it truly capture the market.

I have to admit that Hiroshi Yamauchi’s thinking helped Nintendo defeat Sega and Atari, and eventually became the king of the game console industry in the first half of the 90s.

Even many competitors have to admit that you can criticize Nintendo’s game consoles for poor performance, or you can criticize some of them for being boring, but you must admit that most of Nintendo’s games are fun and of high quality. of.

And this also constitutes the reputation of Nintendo several decades. There is no Blizzard product in these years. It must be a boutique character, because this character belongs to Nintendo.

It is thanks to Hiroshi Yamauchi’s high-quality requirements for games that Nintendo’s success has been achieved.

But everything is a double-edged sword. Hiroshi Yamauchi’s extremely high demands on games caused great pain for the game developers in the Nintendo camp.

Can you imagine a game that took a year or two to develop, and finally because Hiroshi Yamauchi’s sentence is too boring, can you directly lose the opportunity to be released on the console?

If it’s okay for a big game company and can afford such a loss, then if it is placed in front of some small independent game development companies, then this sentence will instantly cause the entire company to go bankrupt.

So since it was rejected by Nintendo, can it be used on other brands of game consoles?

Of course, but Yamauchi Hiroshi is called a tyrant in the industry. You can tell from the name that Yamauchi Hiroshi is such a domineering person. If a third-party game company dares to sell its own games on other console platforms, then Yamauchi Hiroshi will immediately and decisively expel all other games of this company from the Nintendo platform, and then no longer allow this game company, or even the investors behind him, to publish any games on the Nintendo platform.

Such rules make all third-party game companies trembling in fear. Even if they are wronged and suffered such losses, in order to stay on the Nintendo platform, they will serve Yamauchi Hiroshi cautiously.

No way, Yamauchi Hiroshi refused, losing a sum of money at most.

But if it is rejected by Nintendo, the company will go bankrupt.

Of course, such behavior does not matter in Nintendo at the peak period.

But once Nintendo declines and new competitors appear, it will be fatal.

For example, Sony’s PS came on the stage shockingly, with huge amounts of money on foot and Nintendo competing for the game market, and the miserable and resentful third-party companies that had been oppressed by Nintendo have betrayed Nintendo and switched to Sony’s camp, so that Nintendo Almost entered bankruptcy proceedings.

Later, it was the stable performance of the two super ace game IPs of “Pokemon” and “Super Mario”, and they firmly held the pressure on GB. By the strength of oneself, Nintendo earned several billion US dollars in profits. There is a derivative value of 2 1 million US dollars, otherwise Nintendo would be really dead.

cough cough, get back to business.

At this time, when Boss Jia accompanied Satoshi Tajiri to Nintendo to conduct a review, he naturally had already paid a deposit, and conducted the 1st Step and 2nd Step review. It has been successfully passed, and now I am waiting for Nintendo’s director of the issuance department. Yokoi Gunpei, also known as the father of GB, conducts the final review.

“I hope I won’t see that tyrant today!” Satoshi Tajiri folded his hands in prayer. Yokoi Gunpei is actually a very easy person to get along with, but if you meet the tyrant Yamauchi Hiroshi, there will only be heaven knows.
