Is Peter Jones Too Old To Play Games? | Dragons' Den

Surrey-based inventor, Jack Hanauer, is hoping his invention 'Trix' could become a family favourite board game. Jack is offering to hand over 20% of his word game business in return for £50,000 investment from the Dragons. Deborah Meaden may be on a winning streak whilst playing Trix, but it seems Peter Jones is not here to play any games.
An international sensation, Dragon's Den features entrepreneurs pitching for investment in the Den from our Dragons, five venture capitalists willing to invest their own money in exchange for equity.

I had a friend many years ago who invented a brilliant game, a little like a tremendously popular Trivia game that was on the market. It truly was an excellent game and he sold hundreds at flea markets and anywhere else that operated in a similar manner, but, of course, not making much net profit. Naturally we all told him he needed a distributor and was crazy doing it the way he was.....AND we said, "Get a good lawyer first." He did not get a good lawyer because he said "Why would I need one, I'm an intelligent person. I can look after myself." He did approach a MAJOR manufacturer and distributor of games. They told him they loved it and that if it were introduced properly and distributed properly it would sell millions and because of that they would like to give him an initial cheque for (today's equivalent) $75,000.00 and ( again, in today's terms) approx $3.00 for every game sold. He signed, giving them exclusive world wide distribution rights. In return they handed him the cheque which he immediately ran to his bank and cashed. He then phoned us all and told us what a brilliant deal he had made. Subsequently he later found they simply locked the game in a safe and threw way the key....because they didn't want anything competing with their already highly successful game. They had, effectively, prevented a game which could have really hurt their sales from ever reaching the market. This was an inexpensive way of shutting him out. He tried to buy the rights back from them....they refused.

[@jacobthorpe4316]

I call bullshit. If this story is true, and I highly doubt it is, they had exclusive rights to the game which means they get the lion share of the money while they pay him a royalty for each game sold. What your saying is that the company essentially turned down millions of dollars because they already had successful products? That doesn't make any sense whatsoever. No company would ever turn down making millions of dollars. Even if it did hurt the sales of the other product, they would still be reeling in millions from the product your friend signed over to them. And if they didn't think the game would sell well then they wouldn't have any need to sign a deal with him and just tell him to get out. Your story has some big holes.

Except codenames is a far better game than what he presented.

[@Fresco272]

He came up with simplify core principle of Vlaada Chvatil's game called Code names. It sold more than 4 million copies and for a year or two it was rated as the best party game on the world. One of the most succesful game ever.

I think it's pretty clear that they deliver mastectomied female warriors to your doorstep.

You can't call it Apple! People will think you sell fruit

You can't call it coke, ppl will think it's cocaine... "It is..." Well OK then.

"Word Trix" there we go, I solved the name problem, 10k please

[@aaronr7826]

Even “Hat Trix” would work, where three winning words takes home the victory.

[@MagicalDanny]

"Anything that can be put in a nutshell, should remain there." is a quote from Gregory David Roberts This game is a shittier version of Codenames The name is the name of a cereal Also lol, "no trix no games, im out" 11:04 nice

[@yoloswaggins2161]

Bad idea to attack Peter Jones off the bat.

[@SiriusMined]

"The one word is, 'I'm out' " - because apparently, Jenny can't count

[@davidmellish3295]

No when she said "and the one word is?" he replied "out" so it was one word

[@rudra7615]

"I'm looking at the bigger picture" "and I'm looking at the real picture" Bloody hell, Peter got him by the balls! This game is over boys.

[@KritikalPowers]

Had to watch 6 adverts in order to watch this video. Its getting out of hand

"Im not a natural buissness person..." The last thing he says before leaving is an excuse. "Im gonna go home and rethink the product a bit" would be the correct answer

[@Wightkitesurfer]

I do enjoy it when the pitcher doesn’t just kiss the arse of the dragons, and is prepared to stand up for themselves.

[@robink9861]

"Who feel threatened" protip, Jack, you don't tell someone you are asking for support, money and advice that you and/or your product threaten them, lol. It's almost always going to get their back up and piss them off. At very best it'll make them roll their eyes at you and /facepalm.

[@Jbrain859]

That game would be great for primary schools!

[@Eidolon1andOnly]

Deborah said in another episode how much she hates games, but she always gets excited to play, and win.

[@LordClaudeGoonerTV]

Jenny: i can't beat Debra at this game, so for that reason I'm out

[@enochianmagic]

Peter Jones: Well then Claude, ITS TIME TO GO!!!!

Come on you spurs!!!

[@robertblue3795]

This guy is a perfect example of Dunning Kruger.

[@elbentzo]

Actually, it's really really not. Dunning-Kruger is when a person is so out of their depth, they fail to see how miserably bad they are at something and think they're actually good at it. This person is just being extremely defensive of his "invention". Several times during the pitch he admits he doesn't understand business and that he has a lot to learn. He just won't listen to criticism because of his pride. Dunning-Kruger would be if he tried to teach Deborah about marketing or tell Touker that he understands retail better than him. It is the illusion of being good at something, which isn't found here.

[@Lazurath101]

@@elbentzo he has the illusion of being a good inventor, which he’s not

He went on to rename himself Jigsaw and inspired a series of movies.

Jonathan Kilit you were a few minutes too late, I’m afraid!

[@Michael.Virtus]

"I'm not a business person." Yeah you are not and people are paying money to learn the craft in universities. And you want investors to pay you money to teach you business. Ridiculous.

[@robs715]

AGEMO if there’s the potential to earn a good return, it’s not at all ridiculous. A lot of ‘inventors’ (for example) create incredible things but have no business sense whatsoever.

[@novarl5082]

robs715 i mean the inventor needs at least some business sense. this guy had none, he was absolutely clueless. the investor doesn’t have time to micromanage him

[@soilhands7853]

ikr the bloke’s clueless about bizness touka dun get out bed for small fry like that who’s got the time

[@Abedeuss]

That's... how inventors work though. The inventor has an idea and a vision. The INVESTOR pays him for his product and sometimes for bigger share also helps him run the business. How is this comment so upvoted lol.

[@fabulamcafee]

Abedeuss because he like to defend school and want that I go there, before put out art.

[@davemurray3203]

Jenny was spot on lol. I thought I was a tin of biscuits when I first saw it. Even after watching it still doesn't look like a game

[@ChampsMusic]

If there are three things that are sure in Dragon's Den it is: 1. Deborah saying "Excellent!" after a deal 2. Also Deborah asking for a Trademark 3. Delusional people saying "I've got a great product"
