Kapitel 255: TSX Fusion Video Game Production problem
Observing the sales report indicating that TSX Fusion was surpassing the daily sales of KS1, Shin remained indifferent. He was aware that a considerable number of video games for KS1, developed by various entertainment companies, would flood the market in the near future. Consequently, not only would KS1 experience a surge in its daily sales, but KiShin would also reap profits from the royalty fees generated by the video games developed by these entertainment companies.
And naturally, Shin believes that Tora-Suzuki was aware of this as well; that's why, prior to the TSX Fusion release, Tora-Suzuki had already engaged in discussions with the video game entertainment companies...
However, there's a slight hitch in the negotiations for video game development for the TSX Fusion console...
---
While the video game entertainment companies were eager to create games for the TSX Fusion console, they couldn't overlook the fact that Tora-Suzuki's provided video game development toolkits were noticeably inferior to KiShin's, notably the highly valuable VG Engine...
This software significantly aided the video game entertainment companies in developing games more efficiently, and some of their games were already nearing completion.
However, the video game toolkits provided by the Tora-Suzuki alliance appear quite outdated when compared to KiShin.
"Nippon Video Games," a video game entertainment company that also has an agreement with KiShin, is currently in discussions with Tora-Suzuki regarding the ongoing development of video games for the TSX Fusion.
"What do you mean you couldn't develop video games for the TSX Fusion console in a few months?" Kenji Tanaka asked during discussions with the CEO of Nippon Video Games, Hiro Sagawa.
"I've heard that your development for KiShin KS1 video games will only take a few months, and some of the KS1 video games developed by your company are already in the final stages of testing," Kenji Tanaka remarked with a frowning expression.
"I have to be honest with you, Mr. Kenji Tanaka, but developing video games for your TSX Fusion console takes much longer compared to KS1 video game development, for very obvious reasons," Hiro Sagawa explained as he sipped his coffee.
"A very obvious reason?" Kenji Tanaka was quite confused, as he didn't have much knowledge about the agreement between KiShin and the video game entertainment companies.
"I get the feeling that your company prefers to lean on KiShin rather than Tora-Suzuki," Kenji Tanaka remarked with a furrowed brow.
"That's not the case, Mr. Tanaka," Hiro Sagawa chuckled, thinking, 'To be discussing business with this inexperienced young man... I wonder what Tora-Suzuki is thinking...'
"The obvious reason is that the video game development toolkits provided by KiShin are far superior to those of Tora-Suzuki," Hiro Sagawa explained. Seeing the slightly darkened expression on Kenji Tanaka's face, Hiro Sagawa chuckled again, saying, "And the most obvious one, so Mr. Tanaka can understand more clearly, is the KiShin VG Engine."
"VG Engine?" Kenji Tanaka said with a confused expression, having focused solely on discussions about video game development for the TSX Fusion with the game developers. He was unaware of the VG Engine, except for his brother, who stayed updated on KiShin's movements.
"That's correct. It's a valuable software that significantly helped us cut down the time needed for video game development on KS1. It proved to be an efficient tool, reducing our time-consuming development process by at least a few months," Hiro Sagawa said with a more serious expression before taking a sip of his coffee.
"Reduced the time to develop video games by a few months!?" Kenji Tanaka exclaimed, expressing his surprise.
Hiro Sagawa nodded somewhat helplessly and continued, "Indeed. KiShin's VG Engine proved to be exceptionally efficient, cutting down the time-consuming development for KS1 video games." He paused and added, "In fact, just recently, KiShin provided us with an update to their VG Engine software. Now, the VG Engine can also develop video games for KES and SKES, the older console platforms from KiShin."
Kenji Tanaka maintained a serious expression. As he observed Hiro Sagawa, he didn't doubt the man's honesty.
To be honest, Hiro Sagawa was one of the individuals who felt excitement when contacted by Tora-Suzuki for video game development on their upcoming console set to be announced in the market. Nippon Video Games began as a company producing games exclusively for KiShin. However, when Tora and Suzuki expanded their platforms, Nippon Video Games prioritized profits and made their initial KiShin exclusive games available to Tora and Suzuki.
When initially approached by Tora-Suzuki for video game development on their latest console, Hiro Sagawa vividly recalled saying, "This is it! If Tora-Suzuki provides us with a video game toolkit, including a software for game creation like the VG Engine, KiShin wouldn't have such a tight grip on us with their neutral offer!" Nippon Video Games was among the companies that found it unfair for KiShin to provide them with a neutral offer, while other video game entertainment companies with exclusive games for KiShin received more favorable terms.
Hiro Sagawa, along with his other co-founders at Nippon Video Games, eagerly anticipated a more advanced software game engine from Tora-Suzuki.
However, when they initiated contact with Tora-Suzuki, Hiro Sagawa was disappointed to discover that Tora-Suzuki was providing inferior video game development toolkits, a stark contrast to the advanced video game development toolkits offered by KiShin.

Itori Tanaka, along with the Tora executives, had just received a report from his younger brother and the team that handled the initial complaints from some video game entertainment companies.
"I knew this would happen..." Itori Tanaka sighed somewhat helplessly.
"Mr. Tanaka, this VG Engine that these video game entertainment companies are talking about... It could efficiently develop video games," President Taro Ikeda, stroking his chin, remarked. "From the looks of it, it won't be long before more KS1 video games are released in the market. Until then, we, along with the video game entertainment companies, won't be able to keep up with the development pace of video games for KS1."
Most of the executives wore frowning expressions upon hearing this, prompting one of them to suggest, "Can't we just develop our own VG Engine?"
Some executives entertained the same thought.
Itori Tanaka chuckled helplessly, saying, "It won't be possible to develop our own such advanced software. In fact, creating such a software may be much more time-consuming than developing our video games. And until then, KiShin will likely remain out of reach for us."
Upon hearing this, some who held onto hope became a bit disappointed.
Currently, their TSX Fusion console surpassed KS1 in terms of superiority, but the challenge lay in the speed at which video games would reach the market. Obviously, KS1 video games would hit the market before TSX Fusion's. It would likely take several months or even a year for a simple video game for TSX Fusion to appear, not to mention higher-quality video games that might take several years.
During the discussion with the executives, Itori Tanaka's secretary suddenly entered and whispered something to him, leaving Itori Tanaka genuinely surprised.
"Shinro Suzuki wants to meet me!?" Itori Tanaka exclaimed, surprising the executives around him.
