Tokyo Video Game Tycoon.

With Nintendo setting a precedent, many indie games have therefore received more attention.

Players are no longer limited to playing various large-scale games.

Those small, beautiful games are just as charming.

Marcus was a big fan of Stardew Valley. He had played Stardew Valley for over a thousand hours on Battle.net. During that time, he would feel restless if he didn't play for three or four hours every day.

Farming, weeding, falling in love, helping the villagers—it seems like there's always something to do in Stardew Valley.

Later, Nintendo created several more hit indie games, each of which inspired more indie developers and encouraged more people interested in games to get involved in game development.

If Bamboo Star is a god in the entire game industry, then Nintendo is a navigator for independent developers.

original.

It turns out that these two were the same person from beginning to end.

He suddenly remembered the collaboration between Nintendo and Triangle Games.

The three female producers from Triangle Studio are now students and apprentices of Zhu Youxing.

When Nintendo's true colors were revealed, all the information seemed to come together.

Everything makes sense now.

It turns out my boss is a super big shot.

They were initially worried that the company might suddenly go bankrupt.

Now it seems impossible for it to go bankrupt.

"I'm very sorry to reveal my true colors so late. I actually wanted to announce it after the successful acquisition of the game division in Mickford. That was the plan from the beginning."

"I see. We definitely can't use the identity of the God of Games to acquire the Mickford gaming division, otherwise Myron Case will definitely ask for an exorbitant price."

"No, I don't think it's necessarily an exorbitant demand. It's more likely that they'll simply reject the acquisition request outright. Myron Case would rather completely shut down his department than agree to sell to the boss!"

"Haha, I'm kind of curious to see Myron Case's reaction."

When Nintendo's true identity was revealed, many people suddenly realized what was going on.

Like Marcus, all their previous doubts have finally been cleared up.

But at the same time, they also felt a sense of shock.

Back then, Nintendo was hailed by many as the number one company under the god of games, the Bamboo Star.

If an independent game developer successfully creates a large-scale game and gains significant influence, then that person's status will be comparable to that of a gaming god.

But now we don't have to think about those things anymore.

The number one player under the God of Games is also the God of Games himself. Could there be anything more dramatic than this?

Zhu Youxing cleared his throat and said, "Now I no longer need to hide it. If you still have any doubts, you can ask me."

"Me, me, me!" Marcus was the first to raise his hand.

"Boss, were you planning this when you used the Nintendo account in the first place?"

"Needless to say, Mikeford was already showing signs of rising in popularity back then. In order to prevent such a person from becoming a competitor of Youxing Electronic Entertainment, our boss made arrangements in advance. That's a truly brilliant strategy!"

Now everyone has completely deified Zhu Youxing, and everything is planned in advance.

The reason why Yuxing Electronics Entertainment has recently ceased operations is because its owner has been working for Nintendo.

However, Nintendo wasn't always busy. The fact that Yusei Electronics Entertainment had quieted down was clearly to lower Myron Keyes' guard.

Zhu Youxing thought to himself that these people's imaginations were quite vivid.

Before they could even explain themselves, they started making up all sorts of things in their own minds.

Marcus, on the other hand, wanted to get the answer from Takeyusei.

Zhu Youxing simply smiled and said, "You can guess about these things yourselves. I don't need to say too much. I think you will have your own judgment."

Since someone has already filled in the blanks for him, Zhu Youxing will not spoil their beautiful fantasies.

Marcus now only worships Zhu Youxing and does whatever he says.

Are there any other questions?

"I have more!"

"I have one too!"

These people kept asking Zhu Youxing all sorts of strange questions.

Zhu Youxing will answer all the questions he can.

Will the company be merged into Youxing Electronic Entertainment in the future?

Yusei answered no, this will be a new company jointly established by Nintendo and Lorenzo, with Yusei Electronic Entertainment and Morgan Group providing support. With two major companies joining forces, the future of this game company is very bright.

It must be acknowledged that with American capital, Nintendo's development path in the United States will be much smoother.

Yuxing Electronic Entertainment is often subject to various reviews and difficulties from US agencies, but Nintendo has never faced much trouble from government agencies since its inception, which is an advantage.

Naturally, Takeyuuki wouldn't let this opportunity pass by, so he let Nintendo develop on its own.

As for the upcoming appointment of Takeyusei as the director of game development, while the CEO position will be handled by a professional manager, Matsuhashi Minoru has recommended some good candidates to Takeyusei. These are all former university classmates of Matsuhashi Minoru, and with Matsuhashi Minoru's guarantee, they are quite trustworthy.

Going forward, BambooStar will share some of its game ideas with Nintendo and encourage its staff to develop new games and create new content.

Chapter 1211 Acquisition in Finale

A few days later, Mikel officially released the latest business transaction information to the public.

The Mickford Games division will be sold to Nintendo along with its employees and all assets.

Nintendo will simultaneously launch its Fortnite and several subsequent games on the Microford platform, and promises to sell some exclusive items on the Microford platform.

Myron Keyes was very happy when he announced the news.

On the day he returned, he gathered several major shareholders together to discuss the matter.

At first, they were somewhat unhappy that the game division was being sold off cheaply.

But following Zhu Youxing's advice, Myron Case played a few rounds of Fortnite with these guys, and they all tacitly agreed to the acquisition.

They may not necessarily like the game, but they have to admit that it's incredibly popular.

If a game with the potential to expand its user base doesn't launch on the MikeFo platform, that would be MikeFo's biggest mistake.

Shortly after the news was announced, Mike's stock price rose, which made up for the losses from the acquisition, and the shareholders didn't say anything more.

Nintendo is indeed a very good partner.

On the same day that he successfully persuaded the shareholders, Myron Case excitedly called Zhu Youxing to share the good news and inform him that the acquisition of the Mikeford Games division could proceed.

After the overall acquisition is proposed, it still needs to be reviewed by financial institutions and undergo various reconsideration processes, which may take a long time.

This is where Lorenzo's role came into play.

He used his connections to directly and forcefully accelerate the acquisition process.

Myron Case was still a little confused as to why the speed was increased so much.

But he didn't think much of it, figuring it was probably just that Nintendo was desperately short of talent.

After all, there were fewer than two hundred employees before.

Then, at the end of the fourth month after Fortnite's release, the acquisition of the Mickford Games division was completed.

This was just a small acquisition of a gaming division, and it was an American company acquiring another American company. The scale wasn't large, but with Lorenzo's connections, the acquisition was exceptionally efficient.

The acquisition was completed just before Nintendo's personnel information was officially released.

With that, everything settled down.

The speed of the entire process caught Surui Electronics and several other large game companies off guard.

Surui Electronics was the first to protest, because this would suddenly create another powerful competitor, and one that was a game company with strong financial backing.

But Surui Electronics' protests had no effect; it was just a small acquisition. A few hundred million dollars sounds like a lot, but it's nothing for a large company.

There were many similar acquisitions that year, some even larger than this one.

"Finally, I'm leaving Mickford."

In front of the headquarters of the company in Mickford, a group of game developers looked at the Mickford building with a sense of loss.

To be honest, they were still a little reluctant to leave Mickford.

However, they also felt a sense of relief.

I feel very stifled at this company.

We must achieve sufficient results.

Myron Case allows the hardware and systems division to operate long-term, but he will not allow the gaming division to fail to generate the desired revenue for an extended period.

"Let's go. This place no longer belongs to us. All our belongings have been loaded onto the bus and moved to Nintendo's new building. From now on, that will be our home."

At this point, the middle-aged man who was still in charge of the game department offered some words of comfort.

Then he was the first to leave the goal area of ​​Mickford.

Some people may still have a little bit of feeling.

But once one person made the decision, the others no longer hesitated and turned to leave the building in Mickford.

From then on, this place was no longer their home.

Their new home is at Nintendo.

Before they left the building, Nintendo had already packed up and moved all the resources of the game division there.

IP, game development-related technologies, and other elements were all acquired together in a package.

To avoid seeing the problem, Myron Case even gave away his remaining six-month usage rights to Unreal Engine to Nintendo.

In return, Nintendo promised to create another small online social game within a month to boost the influence of the Mikefu platform.

Zhu Youxing had already decided to make a classic farm game. This kind of thing was already everywhere. Zhu Youxing could come up with something new, but it would mostly just be a way to fool Mikefu.

At this moment, these employees stayed at their posts until the last day as agreed. Even though all their belongings had been moved out of their workspaces, they stayed at their workstations for the entire morning.
