Nowadays, there are more and more discussions about home entertainment computers.
In many places in Tokyo, both children and adults are discussing these.
And the fame of Ota Entertainment Hall is also getting louder and louder.
The time has also come to the final eight days before the release.
At this moment, Takayuki in the family let out a long breath.
Five games, one month's time, he almost worked tirelessly to complete these games.
These five games are Dragon Quest, Contra, Tetris, Bomberman, and Tank Battle, respectively.
The most difficult one is Dragon Quest, which took a full two weeks.
But it's not easy to make the rest of them in such a short time.
Even if you don't need extra time to conceive, just follow the path of the previous life, writing code also takes time.
It's just that he will save a lot of time for debugging and finding bugs.
With such a starting lineup, Takayuki feels that he can live up to the Famicom.
Of course, he still has many works in mind that he wants to create, but his time is limited, and now these are considered representative works of various genres.
"Takayuki-san, is the work finally done?"
Said Sayuri coming out of nowhere, holding two apples in her hands.
"Here, have one, boss, you've worked hard."
"Thank you."
Takayuki took the apple and took a bite, still thinking about the game in his mind.
"Oh, by the way, boss, the Dragon Quest manga is out, do you want to take a look?"
"It's out already? Pass it over."
Takayuki also became interested.
"Here you go."
Sayuri had obviously prepared these for Takayuki a long time ago, and it seemed that she was gradually becoming proficient in assisting Takayuki. She knew what Takayuki needed without him saying anything.
Takayuki quickly flipped through it, but as the speed of flipping slowed down, his brows gradually furrowed.
"Boss, do you feel it's not good?"
"Emmm...I can't quite put my finger on it."
Takayuki likes to read manga, but it doesn't mean he understands the professional aspects of manga. It's just that, from a reader's perspective, this manga can only be described as mediocre.
There's nothing wrong with it, but having seen those excellent manga works from his previous life, he feels that just this is not enough.
If it's for promoting the game, this manga can only be considered passable, not reaching the level of excellence in his mind.
Sayuri leaned over, with half-chewed apple in her mouth, her mouth a bit bulging, and said vaguely, "I find it very interesting. The hero is about to start his adventure, but unfortunately, the adventure just ended in this issue. It would have been better if there were more."
"Heh, picking out the flaws..."
"What?"
"Nothing."
Takayuki suddenly stood up, and then with a thud, his head bumped into Sayuri's.
"Ah!"
Takayuki rubbed his head, then turned and asked, "Are you okay?"
"I'm...I'm fine, just a little sore." Sayuri, with half an apple in her mouth, covered her forehead with both hands.
"Uh, sorry, I have something to do, you stay at home."
Takayuki decided to go find Sankyo Tsuchiya.
"Geez, don't you know how to comfort someone?"
Sayuri was very annoyed.
Forget it, let's continue optimizing the game console.
Takayuki left home and drove to the address given by Chief Editor Ikeda Daigo earlier.
At this time, Tsuchiya Sankyo was concentrating on drawing the content of the second episode of Dragon Quest, and a third of it had already been completed.
Since he had the overall outline of the story, he felt like his mind had suddenly opened up.
Now is the time when inspiration is gushing.
Especially when he learned today from the editor that the initial feedback on the latest issue of Dragon Quest manga was pretty good, he felt even more empowered.
Everything around seemed to be no longer important.
He gradually entered a state of forgetfulness.
When Takayuki came in, he didn't even feel anything.
"Mr. Tsuchiya?"
"Mr. Tsuchiya?"
"Ah!"
Tsuchiya Sankyo was suddenly brought back to reality by Takayuki, and was startled.
"Sorry, Mr. Tsuchiya, did I interrupt your thoughts?"
Takayuki stood in front of Tsuchiya Sankyo with a bit of concern.
"It's Takayuki-san, why are you here?"
"Because of this work."
Takayuki held the latest issue of the manga magazine and sat next to Tsuchiya Sankyo.
"Takayuki-san, have you seen the latest issue of the manga? It's the result of my week-long effort, how is it?"
Tsuchiya Sankyo looked at the manga magazine in Takeyuki's hand, his eyes twinkling.
He seemed to be waiting for Takayuki's praise.
But Takeyuki just responded with an ambiguous gesture.
"Um...how should I put it, it's slightly different from what I envisioned."
"Different? In what way?"
Tsuchiya Sankyo was puzzled.
The chief editor said his work was pretty good.
"I just feel it could be better."
Tsuchiya Sankyo immediately understood what Takayuki meant.
"Takayuki-san, I understand what you mean. There's no such thing as a perfect work, it can always be improved at any time, but sometimes it's difficult to surpass."
Takayuki listened attentively, then shook his head and said, "No, I have some ideas in my mind, I think maybe doing it this way would be better, of course, it's just my suggestion."
Tsuchiya Sankyo immediately felt that Takayuki was trying to guide an expert from an outsider's perspective.
This is somewhat taboo.
His expression suddenly became a bit awkward.
"Takayuki-san, in the field of manga, manga artists are certainly more professional."
If Takayuki were a manga editor, Tsuchiya Sankyo would listen carefully.
If Taaeyuki had outstanding manga works in the past, he would also listen carefully.
But now Takayuki is more like an author who can create good stories with words.
Or, using Takayuki's self-introduction, he is a game producer, which has nothing to do with manga at all.
After listening to Takayuki's words, Tsuchiya Sankyo also nodded in agreement, "Of course, in the field of manga, Mr. Tsuchiya is definitely more professional. So I just mentioned my suggestion. If you feel it's not appropriate, you can just consider it nonsense."
Takayuki's real hope is that the manga can play a better promotional role.
The current level of manga barely meets his standards, but it is far from the manga he remembered from his previous life.
An excellent work can often boost the popularity of its derivatives, and if the quality of the manga is excellent, it will also assist in the sales of the game.
So, Takayuki wanted to try to suggest that if Tsuchiya Sankyo didn't intend to do it his way, he wouldn't insist.
Hearing Takayuki's words, Tsuchiya Sankyo said on the surface, but in his heart, he was not very happy.
Being pointed out by an outsider is always unpleasant.
But now Takayuki is his employer, and the two sides are not in a simple cooperative relationship. Takayuki has more dominance.
So he had to patiently say, "Okay, Takayuki-san, please tell me."
Although Tsuchiya Sankyo said so, he didn't particularly want to listen in his heart.
He didn't want his creative freedom to be completely deprived.
This way, it would not conform to his original intention of drawing manga.
