Super Tycoon

? The New Year in 1995 passed quickly. After the new year, Zhang Yang returned to the capital again, because in this competition for 32-bit game consoles, some laggards had already appeared. 35xs

Yes, the first day of sales exceeded 50,000 units, and then plummeted. Whether it is game discs or game consoles, the sales are getting worse and worse, not to mention overseas markets, even the island market.

When Zhang Yang first saw it, he felt that the designer was simply weird. He designed the appearance of the game console as a main computer box, and then lifted the cover to put the game disk on it.

And there is a problem with their research and development direction, which strengthens the animation playback effect. Of course, this effect must be useful to a certain extent, because they mainly focused on beautiful girl games at the beginning.

In the beautiful girl game, there are many animated short films, and they hope to strengthen the user experience in this aspect.

It's a pity that there are not many beautiful girl games that are fun, and there are no upgrades. What's more, game consoles from other companies can also play this kind of games. Consoles with ugly appearance, high price, space occupation, and few games will naturally not be able to sell.

On the first day, relying on crazy advertisements and promotions, 50,000 units were sold, and three months later, the total sales volume is 72,000 units.

This feels like a bad blockbuster movie released in a movie theater. The production cost is not less, and the promotion cost is not less. After it was released, others gave a bad review after seeing it, and the people behind it didn't want to watch it.

It's not that there is no other choice, why do you want to make yourself suffer?

Zhang Yang remembered that this game console in his previous life was considered one of the most smashing game consoles in history, with a global sales volume of 110,000 units. Well, there are even more smashing game consoles than this one.

In such a comparison, Songxia's 3 is not considered a hit on the street. Although it failed to achieve its ambitions, the sales were not too bad. In other overseas markets, the sales of 3 licensed by other companies are also good. Now they are combined, and the sales volume is no worse than that of Zhiduoxing.

Sega's Saturn and Sunny's 1 both announced this month that they had sold more than one million units.

When Zhang Yang saw this data, he found that the sales data of these two companies were better than those in his previous life. Obviously their company's Zhiduoxing joined them, which is considered a spoiler, and has sold more than 3 million units. Not only did the sales of these two companies not decline, but they sold even faster.

Although it is said that Zhiduoxing performed poorly in the island country market, it performed very well in North America and Europe, and it sold well in Asia. At this time, there is still the Chinese mainland market, plus the Eastern European market that has just begun to warm up. Zhang Yang himself It is estimated that the total sales volume of Zhiduoxing should exceed 5 million units, and may even be higher.

The rush to the street has poured cold water on many hardware companies that want to enter the game field. The previous ones were selling well, and even caused pressure on Nintendo at one time. How can a new game console that took several years to make come out like this!

Of course, it was Atari’s Jaguar Jaguar that hit the street even worse. It is said that Atari developed both 32-bit and 64-bit game consoles at the same time. Later, in order to ensure sufficient promotion costs, they concentrated on making a machine. , So launched the so-called 64-bit Jaguar.

However, they made a major mistake in the architecture, which resulted in the so-called quadruple performance not being shown, some performance can be twice the performance, and some performance performance is even worse than that. You must know that it was launched a few years ago. 16-bit machine.

Atari originally used game cassettes, but after discovering that everyone else used CDs, it quickly launched an external device that could also use game CDs.

But the problem is that their development environment is extremely poor. After all, they haven’t made game consoles for several years, and the original core team has left to set up their own business. The current gang is all computer people.

As a result, there are not many fun games on Atari,

Many people even say that there is no one. You get an external device, and no one makes disc games for Atari. Besides, the external equipment is also a lot of money.

Atari launched earlier than Zhiduoxing, but no one noticed this game console at all. It was only in the North American market. There was such a short attention, and then it was all complaining.

Some people even publicly complained about Atari's game consoles on TV shows, and some people said that they would rather play the old game consoles than buy Atari's new game consoles.

One of the most popular game consoles before was Atari's Jaguar. The sales were not good in the first two years. They thought it was because people didn't like cassettes, but as a result, no one bought the external CD-ROMs.

There are game consoles that use discs directly, why buy yours that requires an external connection? What's more, the performance of your machine is too bad, the game is not fun, and the picture quality is extremely bad.

Atari's game console is said to have produced hundreds of thousands of units, but until now, 100,000 units have not been sold. This also caused Atari to become heavily in debt again and was about to be sold off.

Atari, which pioneered the era of game consoles, has changed hands several times. Most of the original heroes have left. Some people have founded their own companies, and they have done well, and some have directly transferred .

Zhang Yang thought that after the game consoles of two big companies hit the street in a row, there should be no such fearlessness. As a result, there was another news from Baodao at this time that a game console called n was launched. .

The performance of this game is similar to that of Sega, they are all 16-bit, but they have been on the market for several years, and now they are making a new generation of 32-bit game consoles, you only developed 16-bit, Zhang Yang really doesn’t know that What did the developers think.

Perhaps they thought that the Huaxia market lacked 16-bit game consoles, and wanted to take the opportunity to make a fortune, but they did not expect that Huaxia not only introduced game consoles from the island country, but also a 32-bit game console independently developed by Zhiduoxing.

When this n is on the market, it is when the losses start. Even the ones sold in the Baodao market are not very good, and no one cares about entering the Chinese mainland market, and several agents have suffered miserably.

They play the game console independently developed by Huaxia, but the counters in the mall are not willing to buy it. The performance is obviously poor, and it is still selling for nearly 2,000 yuan. Will anyone buy it?

Independent research and development, there are many stars.

But n immediately announced that they will add a performance expansion device and upgrade it to 32-bit, but it is the same as Atari's, one step is in place, why buy you that needs to be expanded? After adding expansion equipment, there is no price advantage.

What's more, there are not many fun games on it. Some Baodao game manufacturers united to learn from 3 companies, but they found that even 3 companies didn't seem to make any money, and they even lost money!

At present, in the game console market, only Nintendo, Sega, Soni, 3 and Zhiduxing are left, and the others have been eliminated in the minds of players!

At this time, a new product of Zhiduoxing was successfully developed!
