Game Market 1983

University of Technology, Massachusetts.

Harvard is a prestigious university alongside Harvard in the United States, and if Harvard is a university for elites, MIT is a university for geniuses.

Like the Kaist in South Korea, although it was a collection of nerds with genius in the limb family, MIT's fifth largest Nobel Prize winner among professors and graduates was also called the Nobel Academy by a joke.

“But what brings you to MIT? ”

“Mr. Ellis, do you know where you made your first game? ”

“The first game? I don't know. I never thought of that. Where did you make this?”

“Where we're going. ”

“Yes!? You made the first game at MIT? ”

“Spacewar, created by MIT engineers in 1962, was the first game with graphics technology. I heard they were incredibly popular with MIT hackers at the time, and they failed commercialization. ”

“I see. But I know MIT seems to have completely given up on the game after Atari shock, is that okay? ”

“I'm not going to MIT to look for game developers. ”

“Then why? ”

“If you're MIT, you have a lot of fun ideas using computers. I'm just trying to see if there's any talent I can work with. ”

“You want to scout mintendo? ”

“I don't know.”

I dodged the answer with a strange smile, and Elise raised her mouth slightly.

“You're up to something again, aren't you, like Wilson's shop? ”

Elise is a member of Mintendo, but she was one of the few employees in the United States who knew my secret, like Mr. Wilson.

Every time I increased my mintendo premium store, I was offering legal witnesses with Mr. Wilson, which is why I was paying Elise a certain amount in the name of a monthly fee.

Three years ago, she and I went through the process of growing the U.S. branch, and she helped Mr. Yamashta after that until he was fully seated in the U.S. market.

I just smiled at Elise's words and looked out the window.

Shortly after, we arrived near the MIT Institute of Technology in Cambridge City, USA. It was the holiday season, but the streets were crowded with tourists and students.

“I thought it'd be a little quiet on vacation, but luckily or unfortunately...”

I get out of the car, muttering to myself and looking around.

Looking at the wristwatch, the time was running a little past 1 p.m. After a three-and-a-half hour drive from New York, Elise was getting out of her car and lighting up her base.

“Why don't we go inside and eat first? ”

“Fine. I was hungry!”

We entered the Hamburg house where students eat the most near the university. As soon as I entered the store, I was drooling in my mouth because of the rich smell of grilled meat.

“This must be a very famous place. ”

Elise also liked it and had a full smile on her face. Waiting at the entrance for a moment, the waiter approached to guide you to your seat, and Elise and I each ordered a Hamboxtake.

A moment later, Hambox-take, which was zipping on the metal plate, sat at the table, and I pulled the camera out of my bag.

“What camera are you on? ”

“A Japanese friend asked me to. If you go to America, I want you to take a picture of the food in the cafeteria. ”

As Yuki asked, I just pressed the shutter toward the food that is seeping with steam.

“Photos of food? He's a strange fellow, isn't he? ”

“Yes, I'm a friend of mine who works as an assistant at the station. ”

“You had a girlfriend!? ”

“Well, I have a mutual friend with good feelings.”

“Wow! Congratulations! I thought you weren't interested in women just doing your job. ”

“He's busy, but he understands. ”

“You're a good man. If you go to Japan later, make sure to introduce them. ”

Surprisingly, Elise's cool congratulations reminded me of when I left the airport three years ago, and I asked her about her.

“Does Mr. Ellis have a girlfriend? ”

“Me? Of course I do!! It's very popular around here. ”

Well, there's no way a beauty like that could have waited for me alone for three years. I sliced the meat with a bloody smile in my absurd delusions. At that time, two men across the table heard a funny conversation.

“What do you think? Did you run the file I gave you yesterday? ”

“Yes. I didn't have a good feeling at first just looking at the screen, but I thought I was fainting by moving the directional key. ”

“Kick-kick. Funny, isn't it? Don't you feel like you're actually trapped in a maze? ”

“By the way, how did you think of creating 'space’ on the monitor? ”

As I cut the mortar steak with a space knife, I stopped knitting at the man's conversation. Elise asked me.

“Sir, what's wrong with you? ”

“Shh. Hold on. ”

I slowly sliced the meat and paid more attention to the conversation of the young men across the street.

“It was originally a house where I could look inside with the polygons I was going to create. But the last time I took an art class, I realized something interesting. ”

“Art class? You mean when you drew that triangle stone statue? ”

“That's right. You need a tetrahedron to make that triangle stone statue. I tried to turn it into a computer. It was easier than I thought.”

“You tried to make it into a computer graphic? ”

“What else can't you make? It's like an origami. You just need three vertexes followed by four triangles. The rest of you just attach them together. ”

“That's easy for you to say. ”

You're right. We don't have tools (TOOLs) like 3D MAX in our time, and we're trying to do 3D with just computational work. It's crazy, isn't it? Who the hell is that guy?

“Hey, John. So you finally came up with a geometric diagram that you can look at in that polygon? ”

“No, I didn't finish it. ”

“Why?”

“I only have one triangle in my computer performance. If you're trying to do more than that, you're going to be overwhelmed, so first you have to weave vertex together to create a simple maze. ”

You made a maze out of Vertex? Combining what he's saying now, it's a typical FPS basic structure. I focused on their conversation, putting down the fork, whether the steak in front of me was cold or not.

“Speaking of which, I think we're going to need a device that's going to be as professional as the current CPU. For example, GPU? I have to say...”

“If that's the case, you have a VGA card. ”

“VGA cards don't just output commands processed by the CPU to the monitor. What I'm saying is we need a device that can help CPU directly control the operation of the graphics. ”

At that moment, I smiled with my eyes closed, shouting 'bingo.' You got your point right.

“Sir? What's the matter with you? You don't eat.

“Mr. Ellis..."

“Yes?”

“You don't have to go inside the school. ”

“What do you mean? ”

“I've already found the person I want. ”
