The release of GBA once again made history, becoming the first game console in the world to sell more than one million copies on its first day.
And this is just a handheld console. The real sales volume is home game consoles, which have not yet been officially released.
According to the estimates of some professionals, based on the data released by the gs1 game console and following some of the past sales strategies of Youxing Electronic Entertainment, it should be available for sale within half a year.
Players have been impatient for a long time. They are eager to experience cooler graphics in the latest game consoles.
After some time had passed since GBA was released in the United States, Zhuyu Xing stopped paying too much attention and returned to his job of game development.
Because now the new development team has been formed.
This time is also the largest investment of Youxing Electronic Entertainment, and it is also one of the games that Zhuyousing most wants to personally participate in the production of.
That's Final Fantasy 7
This is a game that plays a decisive role in the entire history of RPG role-playing games. It is also the first game in Zhuyouxing's memory that incorporates all emotions into it.
I am very happy to be able to make this game myself.
He also hopes to bring this game to the world, so that the world can experience the moments that he was touched by.
At the company's headquarters, all members of the three game development teams have gathered together.
In normal times, they rarely communicate with each other due to their respective game development tasks, because each game category they are responsible for is different, and the tasks are also relatively heavy.
Especially because of the crazy fight in the past six months, they had very little communication.
And this time is a very rare opportunity for them to cooperate.
They can also learn a lot from each other during this cooperation and gain experience for future game development.
The teams participating in the production this time are the fifth, sixth, and thirteenth development teams.
Up to now, the three development groups have each had a team size of more than 150 people.
From sound effects, animation, original painting, programming, level design, maze design, plot design... a series of work types are all available.
Nowadays, Youxing Electronic Entertainment has already formed a set of quite mature game development industrial systems. Compared with those of later generations, it is definitely still a little worse, but compared to the game developers of this era, this is a dimensionality reduction blow.
At the same time, only on this scale can it be possible to truly produce large-scale games.
This time is Zhuyouxing’s attempt.
A few days ago, the three teams had received instructions to prepare to officially start the development progress of Final Fantasy 7.
Before, we just built the general framework of the game, but we haven't officially entered the development phase yet because there were other tasks that needed to be done immediately.
But now, with the official release of gba and most of the game development tasks for gs1, they can finally find time to develop new games.
At this moment, the leaders of the fifth, sixth and thirteenth development teams were sitting together chatting, and behind them sat the key personnel of their respective teams.
Nowadays, their respective momentums are quite a bit like those of local princes.
"Ariga-san, congratulations on your promotion to the leader of the new sixth development team. I hope you can take care of you in the future. If we encounter any problems here, I hope you can help."
The leader of the fifth development team, Yuki Uesugi, is a young man who is just twenty-six or seventeen years old. His ability to become the leader of a game development team of more than 100 people at such a young age is not just because of his outstanding performance.
His programming skills, and more importantly, before joining Youxing Electronic Entertainment, he successfully led a team of only three or four people to develop three games with sales exceeding 300,000.
And gained a lot of supporters on the game consoles of Youxing Electronic Entertainment.
With such achievements, Takeyusei naturally found him immediately and invited Uesugi Yuki to become the leader of the fifth development team.
The salary for being the leader of the development team is naturally very high. The first and most attractive thing is the management shares. Based on the annual profit of Youxing Electronic Entertainment, this is much higher than the salary income.
Moreover, this is the most famous game company in the world, and the company's atmosphere is also well-known by word of mouth. Naturally, Yuki Uesugi has no reason to refuse.
Even if other game companies offered higher benefits, he did not hesitate to join Yuxing Electronic Entertainment.
And he did not disappoint Zhuyouxing. After becoming the head of the fifth development team, he developed a number of high-quality games for SFC through his excellent development and management capabilities.
Later, at the end of the period when SFC was about to open source, it used precise management methods to continuously develop more than ten small but beautiful exquisite games, proving its own strength.
His position as the head of the fifth development team has thus been completely secured. Nowadays, they are very strong in sound effects and level design, and they are a very important part of the development of Zhuyouxing.
And Ariga, the leader of the sixth development team he just congratulated, is the new leader who has just been promoted.
The previous person in charge has gradually been unable to adapt to more complex teams. After all, the management models of teams with more than 100 people and teams with less than 100 people are different, and the difficulty has also increased exponentially. Therefore, the previous person in charge was reduced to deputy team leader, and a former team leader was replaced.
Up-and-coming people from other groups were assigned to take charge.
Ariga's resume is also very good. He is a guy who is more dedicated to technology. It just so happens that the sixth development team also has strong points in technology, so it is suitable for him to manage it.
Regarding Uesugi Yuki's congratulations, Ariga didn't have any obvious facial expression. He just nodded and responded: "Okay, if you have any technical problems in the future, just come to us."
In addition to the fifth and sixth development teams, Rinto Egawa, the leader of the tenth development team, seems to be a little bit of a "second grader".
"Uesugi, Ariga, please give me your advice in the future. We will become partners next. The bonds of partners can make us stronger! Ganba Daddy!"
Egawa Rinto is not too old either, he is just twenty-nine, and he speaks a few average words every day, but his mind is quite big, and he likes to study some weird game development content.
Leo Manufacturing was created by Zhu Youxing who came up with the idea, and then they collaborated with people from the engineering development team.
Later, the main development of Street Fighter was handed over to this group, and it was also good at designing puzzles.
These three groups cover almost all the key content elements in Final Fantasy 7.
