在FGC中成为一名全职游戏玩家并不容易,但是对于希望在EVO Japan上获得发薪日的Smash玩家来说,这几乎毫无价值。

 

要想成为职业玩家并在格斗游戏社区中谋生,这已经很困难了,但是对于日本的《 Smash Bros》玩家来说,这不是不可能的。举例来说,看来EVO Japan 2020是世界上最大的格斗游戏锦标赛之一,它将使Nintendo Switch Pro Controller成为赢得该锦标赛的Super Smash Bros Ultimate的全部奖池。

 

该问题最早由Smash Bros Melee内容创建者Andrew Nestico于2020年1月20日在其Twitter上发布。在Nestico最初发布之时,看来,尽管EVO Japan 2020系列中的许多其他游戏也很不错在提供的奖池中,Smash Bros Ultimate仅具有Pro Controller,并且仅适用于Smash Ultimate锦标赛的获胜者。自Nestico最初发布以来,EVO Japan 2020似乎已经改变了这一点。 EVO Japan网站指出,Smash Bros Ultimate的奖池将“稍后公布”。

 

             

 

在日本锦标赛中,这并不是第一次出现付款问题,这主要源于日本关于电子竞技的法律以及对他们的可感知赌博元素。赌博在日本是违法的,而且根据日本消费者保护法,除非该产品背后的赞助商负担全部费用,否则电子竞技就会变得模糊不清,正如GenVid在一篇文章中指出的那样。也就是说,玩家无法像最初的EVO那样像在美国锦标赛中那样为奖池做出贡献,因为日本认为这种赌博是一种赌博。据Kotaku报道,日本现在才刚刚开始认识到游戏是一种职业,但是他们无数的法律和法规几乎使Street Fighter 5的职业玩家Yusuke Momochi在赢得EVO Japan 2019时没有保留奖金。

 

然后归结为任天堂,任天堂一直以是否以官方身份支持超级粉碎兄弟而臭名昭著。尽管任天堂在为《 Super Smash Bros Ultimate》提供比赛方面取得了长足的进步,但该公司几乎始终拒绝成为赞助其他赛事(如EVO)的一部分。这意味着,除了EVO Japan本身的组织者之外,没有人愿意为Smash Bros Ultimate赢得总奖金。

 

至少可以这样说,考虑到EVO Japan很容易成为当年最有趣的海外格斗游戏活动之一,这真是令人遗憾。希望EVO Japan能够为进行这次旅行的Smash Bros玩家提供更多的东西,但由于日本法律难以通过,因此仍有待观察获胜者圈子对玩家的影响。

EVO Japan 2020's Smash Ultimate prize pool was almost just a pro controller

 

It's not easy being a full-time gamer in the FGC, but for Smash players looking to get their payday at EVO Japan, it seems to have almost been worthless.

 

When it comes to trying to go pro and make a living in the fighting game community, it’s already hard, but for Smash Bros players in Japan, it has nearly always been impossible. Case in point, it seems EVO Japan 2020, one of the biggest fighting game tournaments in the world, was about to make a Nintendo Switch Pro Controller the entire prize pool for winning Super Smash Bros Ultimate at the tournament.

 

The issue was first noted by Smash Bros Melee Content Creator Andrew Nestico, as posted on his Twitter on January 20, 2020. At the time of Nestico’s original posting, it appeared that while many other games in the EVO Japan 2020 line-up had decent prize pools on offer, Smash Bros Ultimate featured only a Pro Controller, and only for the winner of the Smash Ultimate tournament. It would appear that since Nestico’s original posting, EVO Japan 2020 has changed this. The EVO Japan website states that the prize pool for Smash Bros Ultimate is to be “announced later.”

 

This is not the first time issues of payment have come up in Japan tournaments, and it stems largely from Japanese law regarding esports and a perceivable gambling element to them. Gambling is illegal in Japan, and under Japanese consumer protection laws, esports get murky unless the sponsor behind the product is footing the entire bill, as pointed out in an article by GenVid. That is to say, players can’t contribute to a prize pool the way they do in American tournaments like the original EVO, because Japan considers that gambling of a sort. Japan is only now starting to recognize gaming as a profession, but their myriad of laws and rules almost kept Street Fighter 5 pro Yusuke Momochi from keeping his prize money when he won at EVO Japan 2019, as reported by Kotaku.

 

Then it comes down to Nintendo, who has been infamously stingy about whether or not to support Super Smash Bros in official capacity. Though Nintendo has made a couple leaps in offering tournaments for Super Smash Bros Ultimate, the company has almost always refused to be a part of sponsoring other events like EVO. That means that there’s really nobody to foot the bill of a prize pool for Smash Bros Ultimate except for perhaps the organizers of EVO Japan itself.

 

It’s a bummer to say the least, considering EVO Japan is easily becoming one of the more interesting overseas fighting game events of the year. Hopefully EVO Japan will be able to offer up something a little more to Smash Bros players who make the trip, but with difficult Japanese laws to navigate through, it will remain to be seen what the winner’s circle holds for players.
