"Overthrow the Daqian's tyranny?" Satoru Iwata looked at Hiroki Ken, and Hiroki Ken nodded. "Using the words of the Hua Xia people, they say that the Daqian had suffered for a long time!"
If this sentence was heard by Boss Jia, he would definitely feel very wronged. What did it mean to have suffered for thousands of years? The steam gaming platform had only been established for a few years, but it was as if it had been squeezed for decades, or even hundreds of years. It was really too unrealistic.
Manyogi Jian continued, "What do you think Da Qian is capable of? He just built a website on the Internet and built a platform for all the games. Yet, he wants to take 30% of the profits from each of us. How tyrannical is that?"
"Our game consoles and games are all our creations and ideas. They are the products that we finally created after our hard work and research."
"Every game is soaked in our blood and sweat. However, Da Qian wants to take 30% without doing anything. Isn't that equivalent to lying down and earning money?"
"Is this reasonable? This is not reasonable! This is bullying us honest people, using their platform monopoly to suppress us, this is not a bad behavior of Bushido! "Ryogi Ken vehemently denounced our Boss Jia.
"Is Sony good enough?" Satoru Iwata snorted in his heart when he heard Hiroki Ken's words. Jia Yapeng is a bastard, and Sony is also a bastard.
Jia Yapeng is only taking 30% of the profits, but Sony's PS2 platform allows them to split the profits equally with all third-party game developers. Sony also charges additional disc burning fees. That means Sony has to pay half of the profits for every PS2 platform game. Sony is the real tyrant.
The most pitiful ones are the third-party game developers. They had worked hard to develop a game, and they have to give more than half of the profits to Sony to market. At most, they will be left with 50% of the profits.
However, if he wanted to sell it, he would have to go through the steam games and take 30%.
Even if this 30% was taken from the total price, it would still fall into the hands of the game developers, for example, 15%.
In other words, the developers of the last game would only get 35% of the profits. The rest would be taken by the middlemen. How pitiful and sad were the developers of these games!
Satoru Iwata mocked Ken Kotogi in his heart, but he had no intention of changing the current situation. Nintendo was also sucking the blood of all the third-party developers. The 50% share was also invented by Nintendo's ancestor, Yamauchi Yamauchi. Nintendo was the true source of all evil.
"Iwata-kun, what do you think of my suggestion?" Seeing that Iwata Satoru was distracted, Ryōki Ken reminded him unhappily.
"We are all smart people. Let's not talk about these useless things. I only want to know what Sony wants, and what can you give us?" Iwata Satoru asked.
"Alright!" Ryōki Ken was overjoyed. Since Iwata Satoru had asked him this question and did not chase him out, that means this is a deal.
"Our PSP console needs Nintendo's support!" "We hope that all of Nintendo's handheld games will be logged onto the PSP. Nintendo will give us the rights to all of their handheld technology. At the same time, Nintendo will give up the handheld market and fully support our PSP!"
"Hahaha!" Iwata Satoru wanted to punch Ken Kotogi Ken's head. This was a deal? This was asking Nintendo to commit suicide!
"Don't be anxious, Iwata-kun. I still have things to say!" Ryōki Ken laughed. "Sony will also give you something in return. So, all Nintendo games sold on the PSP will not get any profits. Sony will not take a single cent from the PSP! "Feng Yu said.
"Secondly, Nintendo will get 20% of the profits from the PSP console!"
"Lastly, Sony is willing to invest 500 million USD to buy Nintendo's technologies and games!" Ryōki Ken said, and Iwata Satoru kept quiet.
Sony's conditions were tempting. At least 500 million USD in cash was enough for Nintendo to recover from their financial crisis. The 20% profits from the PSP was also a huge sum.
But if Sony agreed to sell the PSP, Nintendo will lose the handheld market forever. How will Iwata Satoru face Yamauchi after his death?!
"These conditions are not enough!" After a while, Iwata Satoru said. "Our Nintendo games also do not need to pay a single cent!"
"Nintendo already has many technologies for the new generation of handheld consoles. For example, the dual-sided display and touchscreen technologies. Your PSP will never have them!"
"Lastly, Nintendo will never give up on the handheld market. You are dreaming!" Iwata Satoru scolded.
"Don't be anxious, Iwata-kun. We can talk about all these. I am only giving you some ideas!" Ryōki Ken said with a smile. He didn't expect to be able to make Nintendo agree with these conditions. His conditions were actually only based on half of the bottom line.
If Nintendo only scolded him angrily after hearing these conditions and did not chase him out directly, then it would mean that he had succeeded!

"If you want to complete the last piece of the puzzle, you will need a good weapon. How is the preparation for this weapon?" Boss Jia looked at Arakawa Minori and asked.
"I have brought it here!" Arakawa Minori snapped his fingers, and his secretary walked in with a heavy, high-tech black object and placed it in front of Boss Jia.
"What do you think of this weapon?" Boss Jia asked curiously. After the establishment of the Daqian Games, Boss Jia handed over the development of the game console to Arakawa Minori. Boss Jia himself did not care much about it, so he was not sure about the effects of this weapon.
"The performance is 1.5 times better than the PS2," Arakawa Minori said proudly. "We have used Nvidia's latest standalone graphics card and Intel's latest chips for this weapon. The performance of these chips completely overpowers the PS2. At the same time, we have used a lot of new designs. The gaming experience is definitely better than the PS2. We are not bragging, but the PS2 is like a teddy bear next to a Tibetan mastiff. There is no comparison at all! "
"As long as this battle starts, we'll definitely win!" Arakawa Minori said confidently. However, Boss Jia still decided to try out the console himself.
