Chapter 621 Blast the Enemy into Slag

620
Last time Youxing Electronic Entertainment relied on the strategy of low price to succeed.

But this time Yuxing Electronic Entertainment did not choose to do so. Many people think that this should be because Yuxing Electronic Entertainment has become arrogant, and they no longer care about the feelings of players.

However, some people have carefully studied the cost of the latest game consoles of this generation of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment. After their calculations, it seems that the cost is similar to the announced price. That is to say, Yuxing Electronic Entertainment also did not use the new game console this time. To make money on game consoles, as always, it intends to rely on game software to ensure profitability.

In an interview program of economic news, people specifically discussed Yuxing Electronic Entertainment's decision this time.

The host asked curiously: "Why does Yuxing Electronic Entertainment cost more to manufacture than Suri's game consoles? The game consoles from Suri's side are cheaper."

The person being interviewed appears to be an expert in electrical engineering, who clearly has more say in this area

He cleared his throat and said: "There are many reasons for this, one of which is that the visual performance of the latest game console of Yuxing Electronics Entertainment should be slightly higher than that of Suri Electronics, which must be caused by the chip. The more expensive ones are used in the game, and the second is that Yuxing Electronic Entertainment will always take care of all players for what he promised, so even old games can still run stably in their latest game consoles. Among them There are inevitably some costs.”

"So that's the case, then as long as these old games are cut off, then the cost can be reduced a part?"

The expert nodded: "It is true that it can be reduced by a part, but it also cannot reach the price of Suri Electronics, because Suri Electronics' game consoles are sold at a loss, and they decisively gave up compatibility with old games, which must also be To a certain extent, the cost of game consoles has been reduced. After all, Youxing Electronic Entertainment is only a single company in the game field. It is destined to be impossible to compare with a behemoth like Suri Electronics in terms of burning money. They can insist on selling game consoles at cost prices. It is very difficult.”

The host suddenly said: "So it sounds like Youxing Electronic Entertainment is really sincere, but there seems to be a lot of criticism of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment on the Internet."

"Of course." The expert shrugged and said, "The game console of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment is full of sincerity, but now the public opinion on the Internet is not optimistic about Yuxing Electronic Entertainment, then their failure is doomed."

"Is it because of the price?"

The expert smiled slightly: "This... is a part of the reason, but there is not much to say about the other part. In short, Yuxing Electronic Entertainment is now fighting against all players. We can only look at Yuxing Electronic Entertainment's connection when we catch a certain place. Is there any way to fight back?"

click.

The TV was turned off, and Zhu Yuxing's expression was calm.

Only he knows best what players like and want most.

That's a good enough game.

When games in consoles reach an absolute value in quality, any problems will be solved.

The main reason why companies such as Suri Electronics failed after raising prices was that they did not have enough confidence in video games to raise prices.

Even their housekeeping work Sun Knight can only be regarded as a relatively bright work.

But on my own side, that is the department is bright.

But now it seems that public opinion on the Internet is really bad for him.

Competitors and former competitors alike want to put themselves in the eighteenth hell.

Because of its appearance, it affects not only the video game industry, but also all industries related to electronic entertainment.

His current status is almost equivalent to the peak period of Nintendo in the previous life.

At that time, even Apple had to stay away, and when someone interviewed Jobs and asked who Apple's biggest competitor was in the 90s, he said the name Nintendo without hesitation.

And he is the same now. Because of his appearance, many people have not noticed other entertainment carriers.

It can be said that he has delayed the rise of the mobile Internet for many years.

However, it is still impossible to change the general trend by itself, and the mobile Internet has gradually been out of control.

Zhu Yuxing has made so many games and launched a new game console, which is more or less preparation for the mobile Internet that will come in the future.

The confusion at the beginning was awakened by his subordinates, which made him understand that he didn't need to worry so much at all. With the prophetic ability of the traveler, if even a technology company could not fight, it would be a failure.

Then Zhu Yuxing let the employees ignore the current comments on the Internet and the news media, and let them concentrate on making games.

At the same time, he also focused his attention on the game Mario Galaxy.

This is a super top game.

This is a super game that will never be lower than the top ten in the previous life, no matter how many years have passed.

Later Mario Odyssey is also considered a blueprint.

The biggest feature of Mario is to play a game that has only one form of expression: 'jumping'.

In Mario Galaxy, the attribute of jumping is brought into full play, so that people suddenly realize that it is just a jump that can play so many tricks.

When Zhu Yuxing first came into contact with Mario Galaxy, he was also shocked by the gameplay.

And when Takeyusei explained the concept of Mario Galaxy to the development team and supervised their production at the same time, these people felt as if they were constantly surpassing the record. Innovate.

And this time Mario Galaxy was almost supervised by Zhu Yuxing, and the development went very smoothly. In the end, after the development was almost completed, there were still three or four months before the game console was released. This is really breaking another new record. , which is the shortest development cycle for a top game, less than a year.

If other companies, at this time, they may still be in a state of groping.

And this also makes the staff's worship of Zhu Yuxing become stronger and stronger.

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Yuxing also kept an eye on the development progress of other games, and gave some key guidance when appropriate to let them understand how to develop next.

And as long as Zhu Yuxing reminded them, they would avoid many detours, and the development process of the game would also be greatly improved.

That is, at the end of 2005, when the release date was approaching, all the ten originally expected launch games were ready.

With ten top games as escorts, the GSX game console is like a gun loaded with super artillery ammunition, as long as you pull the trigger, you can easily blast the enemy into slag.
