  • Disruptive Innovation and Internationalization Strategies: the Case of the Videogame Industry Par Shoma Patnaik
    HEC MONTRÉAL Disruptive Innovation and Internationalization Strategies: The Case of the Videogame Industry par Shoma Patnaik Sciences de la gestion (Option International Business) Mémoire présenté en vue de l’obtention du grade de maîtrise ès sciences en gestion (M. Sc.) Décembre 2017 © Shoma Patnaik, 2017 Résumé Ce mémoire a pour objectif une analyse des deux tendances très pertinentes dans le milieu du commerce d'aujourd'hui – l'innovation de rupture et l'internationalisation. L'innovation de rupture (en anglais, « disruptive innovation ») est particulièrement devenue un mot à la mode. Cependant, cela n'est pas assez étudié dans la recherche académique, surtout dans le contexte des affaires internationales. De plus, la théorie de l'innovation de rupture est fréquemment incomprise et mal-appliquée. Ce mémoire vise donc à combler ces lacunes, non seulement en examinant en détail la théorie de l'innovation de rupture, ses antécédents théoriques et ses liens avec l'internationalisation, mais en outre, en situant l'étude dans l'industrie des jeux vidéo, il découvre de nouvelles tendances industrielles et pratiques en examinant le mouvement ascendant des jeux mobiles et jeux en lignes. Le mémoire commence par un dessein des liens entre l'innovation de rupture et l'internationalisation, sur le fondement que la recherche de nouveaux débouchés est un élément critique dans la théorie de l'innovation de rupture. En formulant des propositions tirées de la littérature académique, je postule que les entreprises « disruptives » auront une vitesse d'internationalisation plus élevée que celle des entreprises traditionnelles. De plus, elles auront plus de facilité à franchir l'obstacle de la distance entre des marchés et pénétreront dans des domaines inconnus et inexploités.

  • Pokémon – 25 Year Anniversary
    25 years since Created Many people assume that Ishihara (CEO of Pokémon) is the actual creator Satoshi Tajiri as he makes all the public appearances. Tajiri rarely makes public appearances as he has Asperger's syn- drome and this affects his social abilities Satoshi was obsessed with video games and used to play the in the arcades and almost didn't graduate from High School. He spent so much time in his local arcade that he was given his own ‘Space Invaders’ machine. AK 02/2021 Tajiri did a two year technical degree programme at the Tokyo National College of Technology At 17 years of age, Tajiri started a video games magazine called ‘Game Freak’ which was initially handwritten and stapled together . The legendary Ken Sugimori (Pokémon illustrator) became involved with the magazine after coming across it at a local comic shop. Before the release of Pokémon ‘Red and Green’, Ta- jiri directed two games that were published by two of Nintendos biggest rivals, Sony and Sega. Tajiri directed ‘Smart Ball’ for Super Nintendo which was published by Sony and ‘Pulseman’ for the Sega Gen- esis which was published by Sega. By the time the development on Pokémon ‘Red and Green’ began, the whole process from start to finish was ex- tremely rigorous. The games took six years to complete and nearly caused ‘Game Freak’ to go bankrupt. They barely had enough money to pay their employees, with five of them quitting. Tajiri was so dedicated he did not give himself a salary and was supported by his fa- thers income.

  • Found in Translation: Evolving Approaches for the Localization of Japanese Video Games
    arts Article Found in Translation: Evolving Approaches for the Localization of Japanese Video Games Carme Mangiron Department of Translation, Interpreting and East Asian Studies, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, 08193 Bellaterra, Barcelona, Spain; [email protected] Abstract: Japanese video games have entertained players around the world and played an important role in the video game industry since its origins. In order to export Japanese games overseas, they need to be localized, i.e., they need to be technically, linguistically, and culturally adapted for the territories where they will be sold. This article hopes to shed light onto the current localization practices for Japanese games, their reception in North America, and how users’ feedback can con- tribute to fine-tuning localization strategies. After briefly defining what game localization entails, an overview of the localization practices followed by Japanese developers and publishers is provided. Next, the paper presents three brief case studies of the strategies applied to the localization into English of three renowned Japanese video game sagas set in Japan: Persona (1996–present), Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney (2005–present), and Yakuza (2005–present). The objective of the paper is to analyze how localization practices for these series have evolved over time by looking at industry perspectives on localization, as well as the target market expectations, in order to examine how the dialogue between industry and consumers occurs. Special attention is given to how players’ feedback impacted on localization practices. A descriptive, participant-oriented, and documentary approach was used to collect information from specialized websites, blogs, and forums regarding localization strategies and the reception of the localized English versions.

An investigation into the development of the Pokémon community and expectations for the future of the franchise Carina Assunção University of Edinburgh Michelle Brown De Montfort University Ross Workman University of Central Lancashire Abstract Pokémon is one of Nintendo’s largest, most influential franchises. With a history ranging more than twenty years, its enormous fan-base spans video and trading card games, anime TV shows and films, amongst other media. This paper aims to investigate the Pokémon fan community while exploring how the franchise has grown: from its beginnings as a pop-culture phenomenon, to one of the strongest and friendliest gaming fan communities in existence today. Data gathered from 165 online respondents examines how fans’ past experiences with the franchise inform their expectations towards future products. It also explores how considerable efforts from developers – as well as the gaming community – contribute to the creative growth of a continually-expanding fan-base. Additionally, this study was in a unique position to gather data before two new Pokémon games were released: Pokken Tournament and Pokémon GO. The former did not generate high expectations but still performed well in terms of sales. The latter was thought of as a casual game but, as the world now knows, was a tremendous success. Insights obtained from researching fan attitudes to unreleased games show that expectations do not always become reality. Keywords Pokémon; Pokémon Go; gaming community; online community; RPGs; role-playing games; game franchise Press Start 2017 | Volume 4 | Issue 1 ISSN: 2055-8198 URL: http://press-start.gla.ac.uk Press Start is an open access student journal that publishes the best undergraduate and postgraduate research, essays and dissertations from across the multidisciplinary subject of game studies.

  • Towards Accessibility of Games: Mechanical Experience, Competence Profiles and Jutsus
    Towards Accessibility of Games: Mechanical Experience, Competence Profiles and Jutsus. Abstract Accessibility of games is a multi-faceted problem, one of which is providing mechanically achievable gameplay to players. Previous work focused on adapting games to the individual through either dynamic difficulty adjustment or providing difficulty modes; thus focusing on their failure to meet a designed task. Instead, we look at it as a design issue; designers need to analyse the challenges they craft to understand why gameplay may be inaccessible to certain audiences. The issue is difficult to even discuss properly, whether by designers, academics or critics, as there is currently no comprehensive framework for that. That is our first contribution. We also propose challenge jutsus – structured representations of challenge descriptions (via competency profiles) and player models. This is a first step towards accessibility issues by better understanding the mechanical profile of various game challenges and what is the source of difficulty for different demographics of players. 1.0 Introduction Different Types of Experience When discussing, critiquing, and designing games, we are often concerned with the “player experience” – but what this means is unsettled as games are meant to be consumed and enjoyed in various ways. Players can experience games mechanically (through gameplay actions), aesthetically (through the visual and audio design), emotionally (through the narrative and characters), socially (through the communities of players), and culturally (through a combination of cultural interpretations and interactions). Each aspect corresponds to different ways that the player engages with the game. We can map the different forms of experience to the Eight Types of Fun (Hunicke, LeBlanc, & Zubek, 2004) (Table 1).

    Page 1 EBM Assignment Three: Nine Elements of Business Models EA Sports FIFA Fernando Ortenblad Sigaud Full Sail University Entertainment Business Models 02/18/2018 Page 2 Why I choose this company: I decided to select EA Sports FIFA due to two factors, first because video game have always been important to me, since my ten years old, when my parents gave me my first video game and I started to play FIFA. It is a realistic soccer simulator that immerses you inside the day by day of a professional soccer team. With the advance of technology, FIFA has become a fantastic game, where nowadays you can control your favorite player or team, or even create a brand new team and compete against people from over the world. Second, because of the video game industry, that has drastically increased over the years, where companies are always searching for new talents, especially in Brazil, that is lacking in good professionals. Even that my career goal is to work in the live music events industry, as an entertainment business student is essential to understand all entertainment areas, especially video games. By analyzing EA Sports FIFA this month, I am going to learn about a successful business model and understand how a powerful conglomerate like Electronic Arts operates and maximize his profits every year. EA Sports FIFA Background Information: EA Sports FIFA is a video game franchise that simulates soccer, created in 1993 by the name of FIFA International Soccer. Making an incredible success because it was the first soccer video game to have a license from FIFA (Federation of International Football Association), the entity responsible to regulates soccer and for several tournaments and soccer events around the world (FIFA.com, 2017).

    Evolutionary Changes of Pokemon Game: A Case Study with Focus On Catching Pokemon Chetprayoon Panumate1,ShuoXiong2, Hiroyuki Iida1, and Toshiaki Kondo2 1 Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, Japan {panumate.c,xiongshuo,iida}@jaist.ac.jp 2 Sirindhorn International Institute of Technology, Thailand [email protected] Abstract. Game refinement is a unique theory that has been used as a reliable tool for measuring the attractiveness and sophistication of the games considered. A game refinement measure is derived from a game in- formation progress model and has been applied in various games. In this paper, we aim to investigate the attractiveness of Pokemon, one of the most popular turn-based RPG games. We focus on catching Pokemons which are important components in the game. Then, we propose a new game refinement model with consideration on a prize cost and apply it to catching Pokemons. We analyze in every generation of the game. Exper- imental results show that a game refinement value of catching Pokemons which has been changed many times tries to reach to an appropriate range of game refinement value: 0.07 − 0.08 for which previous works have confirmed. Keywords: Game refinement theory, engagement, Pokemon. 1 Introduction Game theory [13] originated with the idea of the existence of mixed-strategy equi- librium in two-person zero sum games. It has been widely applied as a powerful tool in many fields such as economics, political science and computer science. Game refinement theory is another game theory focusing on attractiveness and sophistication of games based on the concept of information of game outcome uncertainty [7] [11].

  • Testing the Mere Exposure Effect in Videogaming M Gledhill Phd 2019
    Testing the Mere Exposure Effect in Videogaming M Gledhill PhD 2019 i Testing the Mere Exposure Effect in Videogaming Michelle Gledhill Department of Marketing, Retail and Tourism Thesis submitted in the partial fulfilment of the requirements of Manchester Metropolitan University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. September 2019 ii ABSTRACT Due to proliferation of media and platforms it is becoming increasingly difficult for marketers to reach and engage consumers using traditional forms of mass media such as advertising. Marketers are turning to alternate forms of communication, such as brand placement in videogames as the games industry continues to grow. To date academic research appears inconclusive in terms of validating the use of videogames as a promotional tool. Moreover, there is a lack of empirical evidence concerning the effects on consumers and brands of marketing messages in the videogame environment. This aim of this study was to investigate whether exposure to brand placement affects unknown brand likeability as a result of mere exposure for game players and game watchers in videogames. The study adopted a quasi-experiment between group design, with a Control, Watch Group and Play Group (300 participants in total) and a post exposure questionnaire. Results suggest some support a mere exposure effect which is that a frequently presented brand placement in a videogame can have a positive effect on players and watchers’ brand attitudes, although they do not recall the brand. This is the first empirical study to investigate brand placement and mere exposure effects in videogames. Theoretically, the study contributes to knowledge concerning brand placement processing in videogames and builds on the existing paradigms of MEE, low-involvement processing, implicit and explicit processing and brand attitude formation.
