   Chapter 68 Super Mario 3

   Take Yuxing believes that the Internet must be a good channel, and he cannot give up easily. At the same time, it is also a portal open to the world, making it easier to spread game consoles, and it will also be very useful to promote the world in the future.

   In the face of the sudden appearance of competitors, Yuxing Electronic Entertainment did not seem to have much reaction.

   This made Suri Electronics a little confused.

   They are all ready to fight back at any time. The Legal Department has formed a team of lawyers and prepared a lot of documents.

   However, it was found that the other party did not respond to the infringement claim, and I do not know the reason.

   Zhu Yuxing ignored the other party and continued to do things at his own pace.

   They still have a month to go before their game consoles go on sale. Anyway, the propaganda says that your arms can't twist your thighs, so there's no need to invest more in this area. Isn't it good to have that time to make a game?

   So Surui Electronics started to promote it vigorously, and soon occupied the sight of more people.

   As for Zhu Yuxing, he opened a game production class in the company, recruited those who are interested in making games to join, and also promised to give some feedback to game producers.

If the finished game has been reviewed and approved, you can make 10,000 boxes of game cassettes for early sales at Yuxing Entertainment without paying any deposit, and remove the production cost of the cassette, which Yuxing Entertainment will extract from it. Thirty percent of the cassette sales will be taken, and another 30 percent will be taken from the sales channel, and the remaining 40 percent will belong to the game production group.

Youxing Entertainment is equal to earning 30% of the money without spending any cost. 30% of one or two production groups may not see anything, but dozens and hundreds of models are added together. ?

   This is probably more money than making your own games.

   Of course, making money is not the purpose of setting up a class. People in this world are not short of creativity, but they just lack the method of how to realize the creativity of making games.

   Zhu Youxing still hopes that more people can invest in game production. When they see that game production can also make money, this industry will also have a virtuous circle.

   With the current functions of the red and white machines, an average team of about five people can start the game creation, and no particularly complicated staffing is required.

   At this time, the programmer and the art in the game can take care of it, but the game cover needs to be designed by someone, and several professional original artists from Youxing Entertainment can help, just pay them extra.

  In the previous Atari era, just a programmer could even make four or five games a month, but the quality was very worrying.

  Not long after the release of Scarlet Fortress, Zhu Yuxing temporarily slowed down the second game development team, and asked them more than 20 people to teach those who were just getting started how to really make a game at different times.

   They have a lot of experience now. It is obviously not a problem to teach others how to make games. At the same time, they can also self-reflect, which is also beneficial to their next game production.

At the same time, there are the third, fourth and second game development departments that have just been established. Zhu Yuxing plans to let these two development departments produce games of specific categories in the future, just like the first development department. You can hand over some classic series directly to one of the two groups and do it for a long time, such as long-term projects such as The Legend of Zelda and Final Fantasy.

   As for Zhu Yuxing himself, he ran and started playing the game again. Of course, this time he had to bring more people to make it together.

   Compared with company management, he feels that he really likes game development more.

   Moreover, since there are already competitors this time, I should use video games to fight back and really teach them to be human.

   In order to deal with the opponent, the game he is preparing to do is Super Mario 3.

  Super Mario 3 can be said to be a milestone in the gaming industry.

   In a certain media statistics of Zhu Yuxing's previous life, no one who is a game producer has not played Super Mario 3.

   This is one of Mario's pinnacles.

  Bamboo Yuxing wanted to wait a little longer, this is more or less a big move on the red and white machine, but it seems that the production has to start in advance.

  Before, the total capacity of the two Marios was almost a few dozen KB.

   And the upper limit of the capacity of the red and white machine cassettes produced by Take Yuxing and Hayasawa Airi at the beginning is 256KB.

   This is also the initial functional limit of the red and white machine.

   But the game capacity of Super Mario 3 is 384kb

   obviously exceeds its own capacity limit.

   But programming has a magical power. Many game producers in later generations called the game producers in the 1980s and 1990s as masters of miracles.

   They can always stuff their limited functionality with fun stuff without any problem.

   Now Zhu Yuxing is just a reproduction of the path that his predecessors have traveled.

  He started a month-long busy time with a few programmers from the first game development team.

   In fact, except for Zhu Yuxing himself, other programmers are assisting the work, and Zhu Yuxing is the main force.

   They all just completed the programming according to the requirements of Zhu Yuxing, and then Zhu Yuxing checked and compressed the capacity, and wrote it into the cassette.

   They watched as Zhu Yuxing forcibly wrote the hundreds of kilobytes of code he had typed out before into the limited-capacity cassette, and the cassette could still run perfectly.

The promotion for   Super Mario Bros. 3 was also launched at the same time, and it seems that this is the way to deal with the competition.

   Use your own game against the opponent's game console to see if the game is more important, or the game console is more important.

   When the kids who were very fond of Super Mario saw a third-generation Super Mario suddenly appeared, they were all confused at first.

   "Did we miss something? Why is there a Super Mario 3 all of a sudden? What about Super Mario 2?"

   "I don't know, don't the numbers at the back represent the game order?"

   "Forget it, since Super Mario 3 is out, you must buy it!"

  The kids are soon to stop worrying about numbers, and it’s great that there’s a new game coming out, and it’s a sequel to Super Mario.

   Anyone who has a red and white machine has never played Super Mario.

   On the one hand, because of the reasons attached to the game console itself, even if you are not interested, you will go in and play a little bit.

   On the other hand, Super Mario itself is very interesting. It is difficult for adults to say, but there is nothing that children do not like to play.

   Now Super Mario has become the second best character in the hearts of children.

   The first one is the protagonist of this world's special drama Koshien Superman.

   It seems that there is a long way to go to shake the status of this special drama hero in the hearts of children.

   As for the parents, they were not too happy to hear the news.

   Some of the games that were released before are both liked and disliked by children. If there is something they want to buy, the parents will write a bad check, and the children will gradually forget.

   But Super Mario 3 is different.

   Saying anything is useless, parents must buy it, everything can be compromised before, but Super Mario 3 cannot be compromised.

  Parents are heartbroken.

   You are not even a game.

   However, such parents are actually only a minority.

   Because most parents want to play Super Mario 3 when they see it, let alone kids.

At the same time as Super Mario 3 was released, the first game made by someone other than Yuxing Electronic Entertainment also started publicity work, but the release date will be staggered from Super Mario 3, otherwise it is estimated that this first game by outsiders The mother who made the game would be beaten would not recognize it.

   Wait until you finish fighting with Suri Electronics.
