Tokyo: Being coveted by my wife, I just want to play games

20G Galgame!

Cheru Fuyukawa's crazy pile of information on FATE shocked the jaws of countless industry elites present.

The whole venue was buzzing with discussion.

However, after experiencing the initial shock, many manufacturers shook their heads with emotion. This FATE can undoubtedly be said to be an epoch-making Galgame, but even if it is epoch-making, it is still just a Galgame.

It is true that the Chinese game market has indeed produced several Galgames with sales exceeding one million, but they are all based on the model of small profits but quick turnover. The unit price of the game is generally only 70 yuan, and the volume is also small. It is not a first-person shooter. Time, play time is generally within ten hours. As for the Japanese Galgame, although the price has been falling over the years, as long as it is a high-end product with a large investment, even if it is in the low-price area of ​​the game platform, the initial price is more than yuan, or even more than yuan.

Everyone knows there is a problem with this price. After all, the initial launch prices of some 3A masterpieces are not that high, but there is no way.

In addition to the fact that Japanese games have always been very expensive, domestic players in Japan have long since become "acceptable to high prices". Another point is that the characteristics of 3A masterpieces are that they are both Chinese and Western, the market is vast, and the unit price can be reduced to increase sales. In the past, Japanese Galgames rarely succeeded in overseas markets.

If you are worried that the game will not go abroad and cannot gain market share in China, Europe and the United States, then you must raise the unit price and love a wave of domestic players. And once the unit price is raised, it means giving up most of the overseas market, ultimately forming a "cowardly cycle of the cowardly".

"Based on the cost of this game, the price should be at least 13,000 yen."

"It feels more than that. Maybe it will be set at 15,000. After all, it is currently in the limelight, and the cost of stacking materials for this game is indeed high. Even if the price exceeds 15,000, there are probably players who are willing to pay."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, not only do you want to break Galgame's cost record, but also break the unit price record? But if the price is too high, players' expectations will also increase, and the requirements for the game will become more demanding. By then, this game If there is even the slightest problem, the players will scold them like crazy."

"I think the price of 10,000 is enough. If it is more, it will bear a very high risk of public opinion."

As FATE's promotional video comes to an end, the discussion topic among the game manufacturers present has also shifted from the exaggerated cost pile to how much [this game] will be priced. And these discussions have also reached the stage where the explanations are being made. In the ears of Miyano Miting.

"The price of 15,000? The structure of these people is still too small."

Feeling the chattering discussion, Miyano Miwa's cold eyes swept across the crowd, with disdain and amusement flowing in her eyes. At the same time, the conversation with Fuyukawa Cheru when he first talked about FATE flashed in his mind.

[When I make this game, the most important thing is not how much money the game can make, but to create a large-scale IP that spans games, film and television. What I want is influence! This game is just a lever to move the earth! 】

The production cost of this FATE is indeed very, very high, but Fuyukawa Cheru's crazy pile of materials is not just to make money by selling games! In other words, from the beginning of FATE production, Fuyukawa Che's eyes were not on the small track of Galgame!

"That ambitious guy is really different from these men."

Thinking of this, she gradually became excited, and her eyes unconsciously glanced towards the corner of the first row.

Eyes facing each other.

When she saw Fuyukawa Cheru nodding slightly to herself, Miyano Mitei tightened her slender fingers on the microphone slightly, and then pressed up and down keys on her laptop. The next moment, as the first price slowly appeared on the big screen, the entire screening room was completely shocked!

Everyone on the sofa stared with disbelief written all over their faces!

Even Fujiko Sato and Chika Ohara in the first row are the same!

Chika Ohara, who was wearing a white one-shoulder dress, revealing her exquisite locks and strong northern hemisphere, choked out a mouthful of coconut juice and quickly took out a tissue to wipe her fair northern hemisphere that was wet with coconut juice!

Sato Fujiko stood up directly, and the tablet that was softly wrapped on her thighs fell to the ground. The broken screen reflected the light green sexy lace that was constantly shaking due to excitement!

Scared!

Everyone was frightened!

I saw a few lines of extremely exaggerated numbers popping up on the huge screen.

【Japan area price: 4800 yen】

[Price in port area: 149 yuan]

[National price: 109 yuan]

[Price in US area:]

"Nani?! What's going on! Did I see it wrong?! 4800?!"

"Hey, hey! There's a 1 missing here!"

"Crazy! Crazy! Does he want to start a price war?!"

"With this selling price and this cost, we have to sell at least 200,000 units to recover the cost!"

"Hou Li Crab, a Galgame with this scale of production only sells it for this price, he is definitely a madman!"

"Is he trying to break into overseas markets?!"

“The price is too low, it will offend many people!”

"No, no, no. Juyin and SATE must hope that his price will be lower so that he can attract more users. Wow, this guy is really a monster. He actually wants to use the protection of this alliance to protect his products. ! But hasn’t he thought about it? Once this game fails, offends a large number of peers, and loses the protection of giants, his end will be very, very tragic!”

"His ambitions are too great! He wants to enter overseas markets at low prices!"

The whole screening room was excited!

Some people were shocked by the extremely low price, while some people were amazed at Fuyukawa Che's skills!

Yes, wrist!

Every industry has its own unspoken rules.

Japanese Galgames are priced too high. In addition to the fact that it is difficult to go overseas and the market size of such games is indeed small, local players in Japan have actually accepted this high pricing.

Under this high pricing model, small Galgame game manufacturers can reduce risks, and at the same time, manufacturers that can produce classic IP can make huge profits. The only ones injured are those players who like to play Galgame but have no say.

In this case, few manufacturers are willing to choose to lower prices, and when most manufacturers are unwilling to lower prices, other manufacturers cannot lower prices even if they have their own ideas, because they will be besieged if they selfishly lower prices. .

Naturally, Fuyukawa Che couldn't bear the pressure of being targeted by the entire industry. After all, the navy of his friends was the real "darkness coming". However, now there are Juyin and SATE in front of them.

The main purpose of these two companies now is to seize the handheld market share. For this reason, let alone making money, they are even ready to burn a lot of money, fight public opinion wars, and fight price wars!

Super manufacturers at their level don't care whether Fuyukawa Che's product pricing will cause dissatisfaction among others. What they care about is whether Fuyukawa Che's products can capture users on the Galgame track! But similarly, once the sales or reputation of this work dies suddenly, Fuyukawa Che, who has made Juyin and SATE pay a huge price, will also face more severe consequences!
