Tokyo Video Game Tycoon: Chapter 216 The online game was born
Chapter 216 Online games were born
Among the 300,000 SFC game console users, more than 200,000 people bought Street Fighter, and almost all of them bought Street Fighter first, followed by Street Basketball and Need for Speed. Very European and American style of Final Fantasy.
Obviously, the US side attaches great importance to whether there are European and American style attributes. Once this game is more inclined to European and American styles, it will definitely sell better here.
Street Fighter is one of the best, even if you are not interested in video games, you will play a little bit.
Two handles, two people, and then rub each other's big moves against each other.
This kind of fighting game actually has a common problem, that is, when the players are novice at the beginning, many people will have a great time playing and will only feel the fun, but over time, this kind of fun will disappear. It will gradually decrease, and then the loyal players that settle down will be a group of super veterans, and these players will also be the most loyal users of fighting games in the future.
Bob Wilson recently planned to continue his social network development.
But even he can't stand the people around him playing Street Fighter.
In his own dormitory, in other people's dormitories, in recent days, he can always hear the familiar voice of rubbing his ultimate move, all kinds of gas-guzzling heels, and Adu's voices one after another, as if everyone All turned into college students who are addicted to the Internet.
Under the influence of his ears and eyes, he couldn't help but lean over and play two games together.
Before, he just regarded Yuxing Electronic Entertainment's products as an advertiser. He actually disliked this video game, thinking it was boring.
It was only after the real experience that he became a little addicted, and in the end he relied on his willpower to forcibly get rid of it.
Excellent college students can still have self-control, they just spend all their daily leisure time on video games.
Take Yuxing is still very satisfied with the sales results on the first day and the feedback from Matsuhashi that day.
This is the first step of chess, and the rest is to continuously conquer the US market through video games.
But this process will definitely not be easy, this time there are many opponents.
The Hongguo Company in the United States and the Morgan Group, which does the system, cannot be underestimated.
Among them is the old rival of Suri Electronics.
At the same time that they released their own video games, they also released their own products, it seems that they are planning to snipe Yuxing Bamboo exclusively.
Among them, Hongguo Company has launched a lighter all-in-one machine, of course, it is not the classic candy-colored all-in-one machine, but a slightly larger one, and the price is also very touching, as high as 1999 US dollars.
But even so, in major department stores, Hongguo's computers are also one of the most popular electronic products.
Zhu Yuxing watched with only envy. If he had such a market share now, he would probably wake up with a smile, and he could continue to expand his advantages and make his products more popular.
To this end, you can even sacrifice a little bit of hardware sales profits, and then rely on the services on the later network software to make money.
This is the most successful way to succeed in future generations.
At the moment, the market share of others has been fought hard, and now they only need to defend the country, and they are more like an attacker who conquers the city, and then comes to the opponent's home court to fight, even if the opponent does not deliberately suppress it, he is not special. Good mix.
In particular, some people have begun to make games on personal computers. Although the quality is still relatively rough, it has also become one of the choices of some people. This also affects the sales of his video game consoles to a certain extent. Otherwise, Zhu Yuxing thinks that. The first-day sales of the game console may increase by another 100,000 and 200,000.
As for the Morgan Group, they can make big profits only by relying on the old product DOS3000.
In the United States, personal computers are the most popular electronic products, and there is a stronger sense of authenticity here.
With a computer, you have to buy an operating system, which is inevitable for anyone.
In this regard, Zhuyouxing has no choice but to develop slowly.
This is also the reason why the executives of these companies think that Youxing Electronic Entertainment should not be afraid.
They don't know whether Zhu Yuxing understands the US, but they themselves know the US market very well, and know what kind of products can be welcomed by the US people. Their foundation is also very solid, and they will not be as fragile as Japan. .
In Japan, in fact, I got a little bit of dividends after the bubble burst.
The people of Japan desperately need some cheap and interesting products to fill the spiritual void. Video games are such a thing, so once video games are launched, sales have been on the rise.
But the national conditions in the United States are different. The per capita living standard here is still very high. They have to wait for the financial crisis to completely fall.
Now is the time when the United States is in full swing, so it is not too cheap for entertainment products.
Zhu Yuxing can only be patient.
However, the sales performance of Zhuyouxing has actually made several local electronics and information technology giants such as Hongguo Company and Morgan Group feel ashamed.
They also ridiculed the Japanese company's oversight before.
But in a blink of an eye, the sales of game consoles exceeded 300,000 on the first day.
However, they also think that this is not a big problem. Most of the people who buy it should be just for a while. If you really like video games so much, it's a big deal. We will develop some games for you to play on our own computers and operating systems. , so that regardless of the degree of convenience, or the performance of the game screen is definitely stronger than a simple game console.
After all, the game console of Zhuyouxing is only 16-bit so far, and it is still a 2D animation-based game console. If you want to do 3D, you have to use some methods that are similar to the evil way. This is the natural disadvantage of 16-bit game consoles.
For the production of games, apart from Yuxing Electronic Entertainment, the most experienced ones are naturally a Japanese company and Suri Electronics.
At the same time, there are also some young American people who are interested in video games and intend to participate in game production.
There is still no shortage of real geniuses in this world. All of Zhu Yuxing’s games are classics, but there will always be a few people in this world who suddenly burst into inspiration and make an eye-catching video game.
One of them looks obviously threatening.
That is a Dragon Treasure RPG released on the Morgan Group's DOS3000 system.
Compared with the Japanese-style western fantasy role-playing games on Zhuyouxing, Dragon Treasure is obviously more in line with the American aesthetic.
And this game has a more prominent feature, that is, it can be connected to the Internet.
The world has begun to give birth to online games!
