Super Tycoon

Chapter 246 Not everyone can be a game console

"President, Sega has lowered the price in advance. Soni, Zhiduoxing, Songxia and other companies have also lowered their prices. The sales of 32-bit game consoles are growing rapidly again. This is not good for us to launch the N64 next year." Shinji Matsushima looked respectfully. staring at the person in front of him.

The president of Nintendo took a sip of hot tea slowly: "What does it matter, no matter how good their products are, they are only 32-bit. We are 64-bit and will redefine video game consoles."

"And our game development is also very smooth, and the game console uses new technology. Now Suni's promotional point is very good, 3D technology, we are better than Suni in this regard."

"And they didn't expect that we have also innovated on the handle. When our product is launched on the market, it will give players a great surprise, and it will also give those game companies a surprise."

"They don't lower the price now. After our game consoles are launched, they will also lower the price, and the effect will be the same."

The price reduction of these companies means that they have completely abandoned the profits of the game consoles, and only want to make money through games. And do they have any fun games, and even the best performer is Huaxia Zhiduoxing.

But in the eyes of Nintendo, that's the way it is. It's good to sell millions of copies, but Nintendo's popular games have always started from tens of millions of copies, such as Super Mario or something.

This time they developed 64-bit Super Mario, which will definitely attract a large number of players again. Now these manufacturers of 32-bit game consoles are just cannon fodder.

No, now there are already two former rivals, and now they are completely behind, and they may even launch the game console industry.

Atari is liquidating and selling, and NEC's PC-FX sales volume is less than 100,000 units. There are also some small companies that produce 16-bit game consoles, but the sales are extremely poor, and the research and development expenses are not paid back.

Even a game console that sold well, such as the 3DO, didn't make any money at all. Even Songxia, which has the best sales among them, has not fully recovered the cost at this time.

However, Songxia is the major shareholder of 3DO, and may be able to recover its capital by relying on authorization, but other companies that have bought 3DO authorization, such as Sanyo and Samsung, will definitely not be able to recover their capital.

After the cooperation between Suni and Nintendo broke down, they produced PS game consoles, which looked good, but they were still in the same position.

With a certain 3D display capability, there is still a clear gap compared with the N64 they are about to put on the market. Moreover, Suni has no game foundation at all, no fun games to attract players, and Nintendo doesn't pay attention at all.

Originally, the only rival that Nintendo valued was Sega. But now it seems that Sega's decision-makers are not wise. They actually announced that a new handheld game console was about to be launched, again with a color screen.

This is to challenge Nintendo's position as the overlord of handheld consoles. It is simply courting death. It seems that the previous fiasco has not learned enough lessons.

The opponent that Nintendo is paying more attention to at this time is actually Zhiduoxing Company. The performance of Zhiduxing G is average, and it is not outstanding among 32-bit machines. It is not as good as Sunny and Sega, but it has actually developed some interesting games. This has attracted many players.

In particular, Zhiduoxing has also made handhelds, which are cheap. Although the games are not as fun as their Nintendo's, they are no worse than Sega.

The electronic pet some time ago surprised Nintendo. Such a small gadget is actually selling so well. Not only in the island market, but also in the North American market and the European market, it is also very popular.

But in the Huaxia market, the performance is very average. It is said that the price is too high, and most families in Huaxia cannot afford it.

It is amazing that a game console manufacturer guarding such a market has risen so fast.

It's a pity that he arranged for Matsushima Shinji to contact the other party, and wanted to take a stake in Zhiduoxing Company, but he was flatly rejected. Even if he raised the price again later, the other party still refused.

That being the case, trample this company to death.

Let everyone know that any manufacturer who dares to challenge Nintendo's dominance will have only one final result, and that is failure!

Regarding the general price reduction and sales increase of 32-bit game consoles, Nintendo did not make any statement. Everyone knows that Nintendo is holding back a big move, waiting for their N64 to go on the market.

But Nintendo is not afraid that the game market will be saturated by then, and their 64-bit machines will not be sold? That being the case, sell it quickly and take the opportunity to make more money.

Sunny and Sega also learned from Zhi Duoxing and sold the game discs at a discount.

In the past, their game discs had always been much more expensive than Zhi Duoxing's, and it was precisely because of this that Zhi Duoxing's sales became so good.

The performance is similar, and the games of Zhiduoxing are fun and cheap. Of course, consumers will know how to choose. Now let Zhiduoxing understand that we can not only reduce the price of consoles, but also games.

At this time, Bandai Corporation of the island country announced that the 32-bit game console PIPIN, which they jointly developed with Apple Corporation of the United States, will be launched soon.

The hardware of this game console was designed and developed by Bandai, and the software was handed over to Apple for development. The two parties also agreed to sell it through their respective sales channels.

Bandai is a powerful toy sales company that owns the copyrights of many comics and animations, and has also developed some games.

Apple is a world-class electronics manufacturer, whether it is hardware or software, it is very good. But the model of cooperation between the two parties is doomed to failure.

Bandai is good at sales, and at the same time has enough animation copyrights, but they are not ranked in the electronic field at all.

However, Apple, which can be ranked first, does not have the right to develop hardware. It can only do software support, but it has no experience in game development. As a result, the two companies have not been able to come up with the strongest combination.

Such a game console is sure to sell well?

When Zhang Yang heard the news, he directly told other people not to pay attention to this product. This is a product that is destined to hit the market even more than NEC's PC-FX. He just wanted to take advantage of the hot game market to get a share.

But not everyone can make game consoles. Without experience and insufficient knowledge of the market, this will put both companies in trouble.

The electronic pet in the previous life was developed by Bandai Company. With this product, Bandai Company turned around again after hitting the streets on video game consoles.

It's a pity that the electronic pet is now developed by Zhiduoxing Company. Bandai Company lacks this masterpiece of turning over. I don't know if it can turn over again?

Or, another game company that is going to be reduced to second-rate, or even be acquired by other companies?

Amidst everyone's doubts, the PIPIN game console was released ahead of schedule.
