"Jia Jun, you are the first person other than the people in Nintendo's headquarters to see these things!" Yamauchi exclaimed. He then looked at Ivanka, who was standing behind Jia Yapeng, and smiled. "Oh right, there's also your little secretary. Can you watch her mouth?"
"It's not a big problem! I will find something to stuff her mouth! "Boss Jia shrugged his shoulders and said.
"That's good!" Yamauchi nodded and said, "Do you know why I ignored so many third parties and was the first one to let you know about Nintendo's trump card?"
"Isn't it to scare me so that I'll stay on Nintendo's platform and not be taken away by others?" Boss Jia thought to himself. He then pretended to be confused and shook his head.
"That's because your Pokemon will be the first game to be released on Nintendo's VB platform!" Yamauchi said excitedly. "I heard from Miyamoto-kun that Tajiri is already designing the second generation of Pokemon. Is that true?"
"It should be. I don't interfere much in the production of games, so I didn't ask too much!" Boss Jia frowned slightly, then quickly regained his composure and smiled.
"Well, based on the results of the first generation of Pokemon, the second generation will definitely sell for a good price. But don't go too fast. Usually, it's best to release a new generation every three years," Yamauchi said. Yamauchi spoke with fervor and assurance, and Boss Jia nodded vigorously. In his previous life, the Pokemon's respawn rate was about three years.
"Is the second generation still on Nintendo's GB platform?" Yamauchi asked again.
"If there isn't a new version of GB, then it should be like this!" Jia Yapeng smiled.
"It's not enough. Just developing the GB version is not enough!" Yamauchi laughed. "Jia Jun, you saw our VB platform just now. What do you think about releasing your second generation of Pokemon on our VB platform as well?"
"The VB platform will be released in three years, followed by the second generation of Pokemon. The timing is just right. What a coincidence!"
"Yes, this is great!" Boss Jia agreed happily, but in his heart, he had no interest in developing a VB version. Unless VB could directly evolve into VR after 2015, developing a VB version would be a huge loss.
However, Yamauchi didn't have the slightest doubt about this. His VB was so awesome. How could Jia Yapeng not develop a VB version? Wasn't that the same as not earning money?
After receiving Jia Yapeng's promise to develop a VB version of Pokemon, Yamauchi let out a sigh of relief. If there was anything that worried him about the VB version, it would be the problem with the game.
Due to the different way of playing VB games, the development of all games required a completely different way of thinking. At the same time, it also consumed a lot of manpower and resources. The development cost was several times more than a normal VB game. Most small manufacturers were not willing to develop VB games.
That's why Yamauchi wants all the third party companies to develop VB games. With enough games, they don't have to worry about the sales of VB games.
How could such a groundbreaking game console not sell well? That's a non-existent problem!
After visiting Nintendo's VB, it was time for the most important part of the game launch ceremony. At this time, Jia Yapeng suddenly smiled mysteriously at Yamauchi, "President Yamauchi, I have a mysterious gift for you during the conference!"
"Oh!" Yamauchi's face revealed a bright smile, "I wonder what gift Jia Kun has for me? Oh right, I heard about your bet with Sakaguchi-kun. Could it be that Jia Kun wants to wear female clothing during the conference? "
"Of course not!" Boss Jia's old face suddenly turned red. Behind him, Ivanka revealed a curious expression. What female clothing? It was as if she had seen something very interesting.
"This is a gift that will definitely make President Yamauchi happy. However, I have to keep you in suspense. After the game is released, can you give me twenty minutes?" Boss Jia smiled.
"Twenty minutes, that's quite a long time!" Yamauchi laughed and then asked Arakawa beside him, "Arakawa Kun, what do you think? Do we have twenty minutes for Jia Kun? "
"As long as President Yamauchi is willing, let alone twenty minutes, even two hours is not a problem!" Arakawa laughed. Yamauchi also laughed, "Okay, Jia Kun, I'll give you twenty minutes. I'm looking forward to your performance!"

At this time, the famous E3 gaming exhibition hasn't been created yet. When the world's major game manufacturers have games to release, they basically invite some game media and reporters to a simple meeting in the company's conference room to announce the release of the game. After that, they introduce the basic content of the game and that's it. There's nothing eye-catching about it.
In history, Pokemon's conference in North America was completed this easily.
However, under Boss Jia's suggestion, the Pokemon conference wasn't held in a small conference room. Instead, it was held in the lobby of Nintendo's North America branch. It was about three hundred square meters in size.
This was originally a company hall used to showcase Nintendo's glorious image. Now, there was a medium-sized stage with a projection cloth hanging on the stage. At the same time, there was a professional projector in charge of projecting the image. In front of the stage, there were tables and chairs of various sizes for the media and players who came to participate in the press conference.
That's right. For this press conference, other than the traditional media, Nintendo had invited a group of players to participate in this press conference for the first time. Invitations were obtained through the latest batch of lottery tickets in the GB version of the Nintendo Entertainment System.
Yamauchi didn't think this method was a good idea. He didn't think that inviting players to the conference was a good idea. This was because players didn't have any other purpose other than making noise.
However, he didn't expect that after the lottery tickets were distributed, the batch of 100,000 GB games was sold out in just ten days.
Normally, it would be difficult to sell 100,000 GB games in three months.
After hearing this news, Yamauchi decided that in the future, all of Nintendo's conferences would arrange for lottery tickets to be distributed together with GB or FC games.
At the same time, this made Yamauchi value Jia Yapeng even more.
"This guy is a genius. It would be great if he was my son-in-law!" Yamauchi sighed. Then, he looked at Arakawa behind him, "It would be great if this guy could give me a granddaughter soon!"
