Tokyo Video Game Tycoon

Chapter 135 Open the Market
The next day, many authorized sales stores of red and white machines were crowded.

Thousands of people flocked to stores to ask about the latest consoles.

Some of them directly took out the money and slapped it on the table, shouting that they could give the money, and they would get the game console as soon as possible.

But the shop assistants can only apologetically tell these people that the game console has not been released and cannot be provided to them.

Don't talk about these customers, now they, the shop assistants, want to get their hands on the latest game console immediately.

Especially that GB.

In the face-to-face meeting, GB did not announce the price.

But people already have a hunch that this may not be cheap.

Although according to the description, it is only close to the performance of the red and white machine.

A 16-bit SFC sells for 8000 yen.

But such a portable game console can't be cheap no matter how it looks.

But it's okay.

We have money.

Although the bubble burst, and although life was a bit bad, entertainment was indispensable.

Besides, video games are already a relatively cheap form of entertainment.

They are perfectly acceptable.

At the same time, news about Yusei Electronic Entertainment is everywhere in the newspapers, TV Tokyo, and now popular online portals.

"A rising star in the industry, Youxing Electronic Entertainment, a game-breaker."

"Genius-like creativity, god-like imagination, this is an invincible company!"

"Zhu Yuxing, a young president, how did he open up his own game territory?"

All kinds of news and news are rampant, which also helps Youxing Electronic Entertainment continue to expand its influence.

And thanks to the price reduction strategy of red and white machines, people who are interested in video games have begun to rise significantly.

In the previous month, sales of red and white machines reached 50 units.

But it jumped to 70 units in the second month.

This is quite scary.

It is equivalent to an average sales volume of more than 2 red and white machines in one day.

The release of the SFC doesn't seem to affect current console sales.

Because the SFC machine itself is 8000 yen, the average price of the game has also increased by about [-] to [-] yen.

In this comparison, the red and white machines with reduced prices are also very attractive.

In this way, the life of the red and white machine seems to be extended for a long time.

Those game production companies have already planned to gradually transfer to SFC to make games.

But seeing that the sales of red and white phones are even hotter, and the total sales volume is already going to exceed 300 million, they chose to take care of both without hesitation.

The games on the red and white machines should also be done, as should the games on the SFC.

Making games on SFC is relatively simpler. There is no need to dig and search for everything like red and white machines. They can finally make games more liberally.

But the foundation of the red and white machine is huge enough.

They only need to reduce the overall picture quality and sound effects of the production game while making an SFC game, and they can barely fit into the red and white machine.

New players are enthusiastically buying red and white machines, which does not affect those players who are ready to pre-order SFC.

To say who is the most troublesome group of people now, it should be the game division of Suri Electronics, as well as several large enterprises that are also eager to make game consoles.

Originally, they were all ready for their respective game consoles to be released.

Its performance is basically in the 8-bit to 16-bit appearance.

Now the entire video game industry is considered a blue ocean, but anyone with a little capital can make a lot of money by entering it now.

In fact, many players are simply not satisfied with those games on the red and white machines.

It is very fast to release a high-quality first-party game in a month, but the overall game time of this era is not much. If players are fast, they usually only need three to five hours to finish a game.

Unless it's a role-playing game.

A game made in a month can be played in three to five hours.

If they're really interested, they'll get bored after playing it three or five times, and they'll crave more video games.

Youxing Electronic Entertainment now has more than 70 large and small individual game production groups, or third-party game production companies that have transformed into entertainment companies.

But this still can't satisfy these players.

They still find ways to play more games, which is pretty crazy.

So now the field of video games is really a huge gold mine. As long as you wave your manuscripts diligently, you can get a lot of money.

Even companies that have nothing to do with electronics, software, entertainment, etc. are trying to get into the game field with such a speed of money acquisition.

In the red and white machine, a team of more than ten people makes a game, and now it can be paid back as long as it sells more than [-] copies.

Then all remaining revenue is pure profit.

For example, several third-party game manufacturers under the first batch of red and white machines are now making a lot of money.

Gongxiao Yima, who used to be a half-crippled man, has also become a successful person.

Recently, it has also been spotted by many venture capital companies, and they are willing to invest a lot of money in them.

Video games have changed many people, including players, practitioners, and lost people.

Under the impetus of Zhu Yuxing, the video game industry completely began to bloom.

Now the number of players throughout Japan is increasing like crazy.

Now if any organization can calculate the total number of players, they will be shocked to find that an industry that has only been developed for about a year now has a player base of more than 400 million.

Among them, Yuxing Electronic Entertainment has an exclusive share of more than 70.00%.

Relying on perseverance in spending money and the influence of its own industrial system, Surui Electronics has a market share of more than ten percent in this market.

The remaining less than [-]% of the shares belong to more than a dozen companies, large and small, that also want to make game consoles.

In major shops, video games have also become the darling.

They will be placed on the most visible counter.

Today, game companies don't even need to actively promote it.

As long as they have a game made, someone will help to promote it for free.

All are driven by interests, but overall they are still benign.

Overseas, a Japanese video game trend is also slowly emerging.

However, because the current news is still slightly behind, people in Japan only know that Surui Electronics' PN game console has a certain base in the United States.

In Japan, Surui Electronics was beaten by Yuxing Electronics Entertainment, but overseas, they seem to be quite powerful.

Their video game division is also feeding back domestically through overseas profits, so that they can always maintain sufficient money and ammunition to continue to compete with Yuxing Electronic Entertainment.
