Chapter 568 AMIIBO

Although Jester has not had much time recently, the carnival is imminent.

But he still has to go to New York once for this matter.

Jester did not go to the headquarters of the commercial credit company, but went directly to Sandy Will's home. After all, there were many people in the company, and Jester didn't want anyone to know about some things.

Sandy Will's wife and his children went on vacation, so there were only Jester and Sandy Will.

I made a cup of coffee casually.

The two began a discussion about whether the Gulf War would occur.

In fact, Jester has basically convinced Sandy Will, but there is another thing he wants to know more, that is, how long will the Gulf War last?

Faced with Sandy Will's question, Jester hesitated for a moment.

He did not answer directly, but asked a question.

"What do you think?"

Obviously, Sandy Will has done some investigation since Jester spoke to him yesterday.

"I asked Charlie. His opinion was similar to mine. It might last for several months, or even half a year. After all, Iraq's military strength is still good, they..." Jester quietly listened to Sandy Will's blockbuster analysis. The Charlie he just mentioned also knew that this was a member of Sandy Will's think tank.

"Um."

Then, Jester just nodded, and he did not comment on the analysis Sandy Will said.

In fact, this is also a very common view now. Although the mainstream view believes that Iraq will eventually compromise, even the Soviet Union is on the side of the United States. However, if Iraq really does not compromise, the war will really break out. It may be a protracted war.

This shows how much attention the United States attaches to 500,000 more troops this time.

After all, as a country that has just finished the Iran-Iraq War, its military qualities are strong, with more than 5,500 main battle tanks. Among them, the T72, which shocked Europe and the United States, has more than 500 high-end Soviet goods, and there are more than 1,000 aircraft of various types. The millions of main battle troops are still very shocking. In fact, even the United States today may not be sure to quickly solve its opponents.

Of course, the United States, including the whole world, will not doubt which side will win in the end. After all, the gap between the national strength of the two sides is too big.

Once the war breaks out, the embargo begins.

Iraq cannot even guarantee the parts of tanks and aircraft. If there is a problem, it will face the situation where it cannot be repaired.

This is also why the Pentagon ordered a large number of palm machines from Mars Entertainment. That must be because the Pentagon also considered that the war would last longer, allowing soldiers in combat to have something to relieve boredom, and gameboy is indeed a very good choice.

This is the mainstream view now.

"I don't think so." After hesitating for a moment, Jester still expressed his thoughts. After hearing Jester say this, Sandy Will's spirit also concentrated. He picked up the coffee in front of him and took a sip, then looked at Jester seriously. It could be seen that his expression was very urgent.

"I think..."

After Jester opened his mouth, he paused a little. Then he continued: "This war will not last too long."

These words made Sandy Will frown suddenly.

Obviously, he was not very satisfied with Jester's answer. He pulled out a cigar and did not light it. Instead, he held it in his hand and turned it around before speaking.

"Jess, to be more specific, is there anything that cannot be said?"

"No."

Jester shook his head: "Just organizing his own words... I mean, the duration of this war will not last more than half a year as predicted now. In my opinion, if Iraq did not compromise between the expiration of the ultimatum, the war would break out within three days, and the end of the war will not exceed the end of February at the latest."

"End of February?"

Hearing Jester's tone so affirmed, Sandy Will also exclaimed.

The Middle East issue is so hot now, but no one dares to predict this so far. The war can be ended before the end of February? In other words, the entire war may only last forty days?

But Iraq is not effective.

They are the largest country in the Middle East, both in the army and the air force, and to put it bluntly, they are much stronger than Vietnam back then.

However, Sandy Will didn't blame Jester's magical behavior anymore. He did not question the other party, but he remained silent after exclaiming. Jester didn't speak either, and both sides were silent.

In the end, it was Sandy Will who spoke first.

"How confident are you?"

"hehe."

Jester smiled, and he said in a very confident tone: "Grandpa Will, do you remember what I said to you before?"

When Sandy Will was stunned when he heard Jester say this.

“My eyes can see the future.”

Just as Sandy Will was stunned, Jester smiled and repeated the sentence he had said.

the next day.

Jester returned to Los Angeles on his own plane.

The private plane that Claudia ordered from Gulfstream before has been delivered, so now Jester only needs to pass through the air and can fly around the United States at will, without having to wait for any flights.

Along the way, a flight attendant purchased a piece of stuff on Jester's private plane caught his attention.

Not something precious.

It's just a figure of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, which was produced by a toy factory under Mars Entertainment. It is currently very popular. Of course, this is also due to the popularity of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoons throughout the United States.

However, Jester did not pay attention to these things seriously during this period.

However, he still remembered that when he thought of a dramatic moment when he wanted to acquire the studio that created the Mutant Ninja Turtle comics. Now, Phantom Studio is his largest comic studio, responsible for the comic book creation of the entire Mars Entertainment game, which is many times larger than before.

Moreover, Jester also remembered his decision to make a clear-cut game of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles". However, after the release of Dreambox, he had too many games he had to be responsible for, so he did not make it in the end and lost it to others. However, he still participated in the game's planning and setting, and the final quality of the works was also very high.

The sequel is also good.

Jester asked the flight attendant why he wanted to buy this genius ninja turtle figure in New York.

The flight attendant's answer was very simple. Because the figure in Los Angeles was sold out, she came to New York this time to see if she could find it. Unexpectedly, she found it to survive in an inconspicuous small shop.

"Is this thing very popular?"

Jester was a little curious. He didn't expect these figures to be so popular.

"Yes, many limited editions will be sold out as soon as they come out." The flight attendant's affirmative answer also surprised Jester.

This is just a small episode for Jester.

But on the plane from New York to Los Angeles, the bored Jester thought of one thing from this figure, that is, in his memory, the small money-making artifact that turned Nintendo back into profits, amiibo.

You should know that after Nintendo's financial report came out, he lost billions or a lot of yen, which almost made Iwata Satoshi directly confess his guilt.

However, since the release of this small amiibo toy in the second year, Nintendo turned losses into profits.

Moreover, when Nintendo launched Amiibo, many people planned to watch Nintendo's jokes, and they all thought that Nintendo did this to be useless. However, after Amiibo was released, it was directly slapped in the eyes of these people. Amiibo not only did not fail, but was a great success. Even after a batch of new Amiibo was launched, it would be sold out by players.

Jester thought of his figure from his Tintoon Turtle. Can he add functions like amiibo?

Of course, the real amiibo is impossible to accomplish now.

After all, this is wirelessly connected through an NFC chip, but you don’t have to connect wirelessly.

This is originally a way that Nintendo tricks players into buying his figures to unlock some specific game content. This is the essence of this thing. As for other things, how to connect and unlock, is it wireless or wired?

And, most importantly, the cost of this thing is very, very low.

You only need to place a chip specially used to connect games for certification in a figure, but the price it can sell is absolutely not low.

Nintendo's price for Amiibo was as high as thirteen dollars at the time, almost the rhythm of making as much as you sell.

According to Jester's memory in his mind, it seems that Nintendo sold more than 5 million copies in more than half a year, counting the money and cramping his hands. Other manufacturers were jealous of seeing it.

The more I think about Jester, the more excited I feel.

Moreover, gamboy does need to develop a new version now.

After all, now that Sony has acquired Nintendo's handheld machine department, Sega's color handheld machine is about to be developed, and they are drooling in the huge market of handheld machine.

If you can't take out something that others can't take out, how can you occupy an absolute share in this market? (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
