Console War 電玩機大戰

My read this weekend, right on time the Nintendo Switch launch

Not a gamer but enjoyed the story. The gaming industry has so much crazy, lots of WTF moments, and anyone who dealt with Asian-American collaboration before can certainly relate to the dynamics of cross-culture team work (and conflict)

日本電玩大廠的大戰史,有太多可以學的,所以看很久

– The power of cross-disciplines 跨領域的威力
很多大戰期間加入的人並非來自gaming,包括玩具業,通路業,連鎖速食,飯店管理。甚至任天堂倉儲裡有個傢伙測遍所有遊戲,變成公司遊戲代言人

– Industries touched by tech transforms into dog years
什麼行業碰上科技,立刻進入快轉模式

– Know your enemy’s enemy
知道敵人的敵人很重要

-The power of leverage and debt
善用槓桿和負債 (不論是財務還是任何形式的)

It takes a lot of people going the extra mile
團隊成功要有很多瘋狂的人各自瘋狂 。如何創造一個讓大家願意也放心多走一哩路的環境?

Balancing numbers and stories
數字(財報)和故事(願景)缺一不可

– Be a respectable opponent
不論輸贏,當一個可敬的對手

The internal politics can be way more damaging than the outside enemy
不怕神一般的對手,只怕扯後腿的隊友

– You never know where competition might emerge from  螳螂捕蟬,黃雀在後
