Chapter 545 The debut of the reset version

Thinking that his company's world number one game record was going to be broken by other companies' games, Hiroshi Yamauchi was a little unhappy, and then some small ideas came up.

"Iwata, you asked the people from the marketing planning department to prepare a marketing plan for me. The requirement was to make Super Mario's sales exceed 48 million in three months, and you must maintain the position of the world's number one game!" Yamauchi said.

"President, this...this..." Even the resourceful Satoshi Iwata was speechless. Although the record of Super Mario's sales of 42 million yuan is still growing, it was a game launched in 1985. With the launch of Super Mario Bros. 3, the first game cartridge is still on sale, but the sales increase has been quite slow, with a maximum increase of 10,000 or 20,000 yuan per month.

Now that Hiro Yamauchi will grow to 48 million within three months, isn’t this a big deal? Even if you use suicide by committing suicide by separatism to threaten the people in the planning department, they will not be able to do this!

"Ahem, I know this is difficult, so you can use your brain. In fact, the sales of Pokemon are not as good as our Super Mario Brothers, but because they have two versions of red and green, many players have repeatedly purchased it."

"You understand what I mean!"

"Yes! President" Yamauchi Hiroshi, Iwada Satoshi understood the meaning of the first time. Yamauchi Hiroshi wanted the company to launch a Super Mario Bros. Green and other things, and create a new version to allow many loyal fans of Super Mario Bros. to spend a second time and buy another Super Mario Bros.

"But President, we have now released Super Mario Bros. 3. If we want to, we should also release the revised version of Super Mario Bros. 3. How can we produce his first generation?" Iwada Satoshi said with a wry smile.

"But the sales of the third generation are very bad, right? Now there are only 12 million copies of sales, it proves that compared with the first generation, Super Mario Bros. 3 cannot be supported by the wall!" Yamauchi said lightly.

In fact, Super Mario Bros. 3 is also a game launched in 1988. It is precisely because the sales of Super Mario Bros. 3 are very miserable that Nintendo has basically given up launching the orthodox horizontal version of the online game category, and replaced it with games like Mario World.

"So, I suddenly came up with an idea. Can we restart the first generation of Super Mario?" Yamauchi Hiroshi slapped his thigh and said, "I think this idea is very good. You asked the development department to re-create the first generation of Super Mario Brothers with the latest technology. Basically, all the original content and easter eggs are retained, but to do better in the display effect, and at the same time, you have to design an additional hidden level as a new content for this version!"

"Well, I have thought of the name, it's called Super Mario Bros. It means it has better content and quality than the previous first part!"

"Ah..." Iwada Satoshi's mouth was wide open. For the first time, he discovered that Yuki Yamauchi's creative ability was also very terrifying!

"Don't open my mouth here, I'll ask you, can this be done?" Yamauchi cursed.

"No problem! It can definitely be done!" Iwada Satoshi immediately replied. After thinking about it carefully, the president's idea was actually quite good. Take out the hottest Super Mario Brothers and re-made it, and then those sentimental customers will definitely be eager to buy these games back immediately. Maybe they can still sell tens of millions of copies. Nintendo's financial report this year is good, isn't he expected to get a promotion and salary increase?

However, there is another problem here.

"President, if you make Super Mario Bros. plus, it shouldn't be considered the same game. Their sales shouldn't be superimposed together!"

"Bastard, who said that you can't superimpose it? Are you talking about it? "Yamauchi Hiroshi wanted to kick Iwada Satoshi. This guy usually looks very smart, why are he so stupid at this time?

"The content of these two games is exactly the same, but the picture has changed a little. How can it not be considered a game? As long as we insist that this is a game, which media dares to fart around there? Believe it or not, I will let him never report the news and information about any Nintendo game!" Yamauchi's domineering speech made Iwada Satoshi suddenly realize.

Then Iwada Satoshi began to work hard, because he knew very clearly that Hiroshi Yamauchi would never want to see Pokemon's sales exceed the sales of Super Mario Brothers, even if it was only more than a minute.

So Iwada Satoshi immediately summoned all the elites of the company's three development teams, allowing them to immediately put down everything in their hands and fully develop this Super Mario Bros. plus version.

Although the major development teams have complained about this, no one dared to express his opinions after Yamauchi praised Iwada Satoshi in public.

In addition, because it is a replica of the original game, all the data and level information are ready-made, and even the development platform has not changed, most of the code can be used, but some art materials need to be updated and an additional small new level is created.

So the development department was very fast. In less than half a month, it did not produce this Super Mario Bros. plus and then put it on the shelves for sale.

Not to mention, once the Super Mario Bros. Plus was put on the shelves, it quickly aroused the feelings of the majority of people. This reset game reminded many children of the scene when they used to play Super Mario Bros.

As a result, after one week of its release, the sales of Super Mario Bros., exceeded 3 million, and in one month, the sales exceeded 8 million. It is estimated that sales of more than 20 million in the end will not be a problem.

Nintendo publicly stated that because the content of the two games is the same, but the names have changed a little bit, the sales of these two games should be counted together. Therefore, Super Mario Bros., whose sales record was stable at 42 million, became 45 million in a week, and one month later, it became the first game in the world to exceed 50 million in sales.

Many fans of Nintendo and Super Mario Bros. began to cheer wildly.

"Damn! Why is Nintendo so unconventional? It's only 1994, and they both made up the replica and Plus!" When Boss Jia received the news that Super Mario Brothers Plus was on sale, he was shocked.

I feel that the entire game history has been led by our boss Jia.

Nintendo also found that the reset version or plus is a good business, and you can reset some old games in the future!

——————————————

"By the way, Iwata, I still have another question!" During the conversation that day, there was actually such a small clip.

"President, please ask?"

"You think this kind of thing is only $9. If the profits and taxes of the channel dealer are deducted, the real cost is about $7, how much money can Jia Yapeng make? Can he really make money?

"This..." Iwada Satoshi stopped talking. He really couldn't understand how a pocket electronic pet machine that had basically entered the threshold of the game console would compress the cost to less than $7. This is simply terrible!
