Super Tycoon

Chapter 254: See Who Has the Last Laugh

"What are you talking about, Zhiduoxing's Z2 has been announced for sale, and the order is accepted at this time, and the price is 9,800 yen? Do they think their products will sell so well? Learn to raise prices like Sega?"

Several executives of Nintendo sat together, and when they heard the news, they all felt very funny.

They also know the parameters of Zhiduoxing Z2. Although some innovations have been made in storage, the screen has added a backlight function, and it also supports the replacement of game cards, but in fact the performance has not been significantly improved.

Such a black and white screen handheld that hasn't changed much in other aspects, why is it so expensive? The selling price in the American market is $149. Is this going to be on par with Sega's ND?

ND is at least a 16-bit handheld with a color screen, and is compatible with MD game cartridges. In this regard, it has a great advantage. As for the Zhiduoxing Z2, it is not compatible with the previous generation at all, because the previous generation did not have game cartridges. It is solidified inside the machine.

"Wait a minute, don't you find it strange? Zhiduoxing has always been focusing on cheap strategies. The price of selling game consoles is high, so they lower the price of game discs to open up the market."

"This time, why did Zhiduoxing go the other way and increase the price of the handheld? Their sales of Zhiduxing Z1 are not very good. Although it is worse than Atari and NEC, it is far inferior to our GB. Where did they come from? courage?"

After someone raised a question, everyone else fell into deep thought, yes, why did Zhi Duoxing do this?

"Do you think it is possible, this time Zhi Duoxing is very confident in the game he launched?"

As soon as this sentence was asked, some people objected: "How is this possible, there are more fun games on the handheld than Super Mario Land and Tetris?"

The 16-bit game cartridge compatible with MD on the ND side must have more fun games, but the shortcoming of power consumption will inevitably plummet after players find out.

The reason why Nintendo didn't care about it at this time was to let Sega be in a state of arrogance and produce frantically. If it can't be sold at that time, Sega will pay for it in blood.

Zhiduoxing's Z2 is still an 8-bit game, where is the confidence to have more fun games? Are there any game companies that will develop this kind of 8-bit games? Only Nintendo has some companies?

After all, Nintendo's FC is still on sale. Although the current sales volume is very low, there are still some players who plan to sell this product for 20 years before stopping production.

"I heard that this time Zhi Duoxing's handheld will be equipped with a game produced by Huadao Fairy Company, called Pet Fairy, also known as Pokemon."

"It is said that this game is based on electronic pets. It is very playable and will be liked by many people. If this game can reach the hot sales of electronic pets, it may really threaten the status of our GB."

The sales of electronic pets have exceeded 10 million units, and are still growing rapidly. It is said that the second generation will be launched soon, and some new pets will be added.

Among these electronic game console products, millions of units are one level, and tens of millions are another level.

The sales volume of Nintendo GB before was unmatched by other companies combined. They monopolize a level, and other companies are almost the same.

But if the sales volume of Zhiduxing Z2 can exceed 10 million units, it will be different, and it will become a strong enemy of Nintendo!

"What's the use of guessing here, let's see the results first. Also, don't just think about Zhi Duoxing, Sega's ND will also be listed on the island market."

...

"Xiao Cang, what are you doing? I saved some pocket money to buy a new handheld game console."

"I'm also going to buy a new handheld game console, and you want to buy an ND too?" Xiao Cang also had a happy expression on his face.

"Who buys ND? Didn't you read the newspaper? It said that ND has too many shortcomings, such as high power consumption, poor battery life, and it's just a variant of MD, which isn't much fun."

Xiao Cang was stunned for a moment: "Then what are you going to buy, GB, don't you have one?"

"no,

I bought Zhiduoxing Z2, a new handheld game console launched by Zhiduoxing, and I heard that I was given a game developed with Pikachu as the main character, which is very fun. "

"Pikachu? Are you sure? It's not just a gimmick, right?" Ogura was a little disbelieving.

"What a gimmick, you forgot, many games launched by Zhiduoxing Company are cheap and fun, haven't you played my cousin's Zhiduoxing G, you just say whether KOF is fun, and now the shooting game called Battle City, With the new vibration handle, the experience is particularly good.”

"Then, why don't you buy one first, and I'll look back and talk about it later." Xiaocang was moved, don't buy something that isn't fun, it's thanks, the pocket money I finally saved, I usually don't want to spend it on school lunch .

The counter of Zhiduoxing Company is very close to the counter of Sega. The people at the counters on both sides are looking at each other. They all hope that their products can sell better, so that they can get more bonuses.

At the beginning, there were about the same number of people queuing on both sides, but after an hour, there were still a lot of people queuing on Zhiduoxing's side, while those on Sega's side had already seen their end, and some even ran to Zhiduoxing's side to line up instead.

"Hello, take a look at this one. Is there a scratch here? Can I return it?" A middle school student looked at the salesperson at the Sega counter.

"We can replace it for you for free."

"I don't want to replace it, I want to return it. If you sell me the broken one, I want to return it!" the middle school student insisted.

"Well, then, is the invoice you just bought there? We can return it for you."

"Oh~~ That's great~~ I returned this and bought the Zedox Z2, and I can save 2,000 yen!"

Sega's salesperson: "..."

So you don't come to return the product because there is a scratch on the casing, you just want to buy the Zhiduoxing Z2?

The sales statistics for the first day of the island country market came out. The sales volume of Zhiduxing Z2 reached 240,000 units, and the sales volume of Sega's ND reached 190,000 units.

The person in charge of Sega looked at the sales statistics with a very bad expression on his face. Hmph, Zhiduoxing Company clearly did it on purpose, and deliberately chose to release it in the island market on the same day as them.

It doesn't matter if you sell better on the first day, it still depends on who the players like more. We can play hundreds of games, can Zhiduoxing do it?

The difference in the number of games is a world of difference. This time, Zhi Duo Xing will definitely lose!

It seems that in the handheld market, it's Sega's turn to call the shots. What Zhiduoxing, what Nintendo, all stand aside!

Zhang Yang also looked at the sales statistics of the island country market, and he was very satisfied with it. The next step is to continue advertising and wait for word of mouth to ferment. He tried Pokemon himself, and the game was really good.

I believe it won't take long to attract countless players. Isn't Sega full of confidence, let's see who has the last laugh!
