Tokyo Video Game Tycoon

"Zhuyou-san, the sales data for the first week is out!"

Daejeon is holding his phone and looking very happy.

At this time, Zhuyouxing was just making a new game.

Next, he plans to release the game on a monthly basis. At the same time, he is also writing a book about making games.

After all, Zhu Youxing himself is only one person, at most he can find a team to make larger-scale games, but he hopes that more games can be born besides himself.

Of course, the authorization fee is definitely indispensable, so that the value of the red and white machine can be better reflected.

After receiving the call from Da Tianzheng, Zhu Youxing also lifted his spirits.

finally come.

He and Da Tianzheng agreed to conduct data statistics once a day, and at the same time, report and summarize once a week.

The main content of the report summary is the sales of game consoles, whether they are purchased by adults or children, and the age ratio among them.

There is also the purchase and sales of different games.

Zhuyouxing also mass-produced each game cartridge before. Of course, this thing is much simpler to make than a game console.

It only needs mass-produced storage chips, and then writes the program through the computer, and the program is encrypted, and you're done.

On the one hand, the sales of game consoles and games are money, on the other hand, it also determines the popularity of this thing, to see if people in this world really like this product.

Zhu Youxing took a deep breath and asked, "How about the detailed data?"

Da Tian was holding a pile of data and began to reply one by one.

"A total of 32,453 game consoles were sold in the first week, with an average daily sales of more than 4,600 units, of which 19,324 were delivered through registered addresses, and the rest were sold in stores."

More than 30,000 units a week. This is the sales data of a brand new product. It can be said that the sales volume is very good. According to the price of 7,000 yen per unit, this is more than 200 million yen.

With 200 million, you can pay back the advertising fee immediately, and then pay part of the motherboard order.

And this is still the sales of game consoles.

"What about games? How many sales are there?"

Da Tianzheng immediately turned the page, and then said a little excitedly: "Sales are very good! Compared with game consoles, as you said, games are really more profitable!"

"Dragon Quest has a total of 7,435, Bomberman has a total of 11,023, Tank Wars has a total of 15,647, and Backgammon has a total of 9,324."

Is there only more than seven thousand Dragon Quest? This is slightly lower than Zhu Youxing's expectations. It should not be a problem that the game is not fun, but that role-playing games need a longer period of precipitation.

Bomberman Tank Wars and Backgammon are quite in line with his expectations. There are more than 10,000 games, so there are more than 30,000 game consoles on average, and every game console buyer will buy... huh? wrong.

Zhu Youxing said: "Datian, did you forget two games? What about the sales of Contra and Tetris?"

Da Tianzheng smiled: "Because I'm waiting for you to ask me, what do you think the two sales are?"

Zhu Youxing was taken aback.

Do you have to guess for yourself?

After thinking for a while, he immediately understood that it was obviously because the sales volume was good!

Contra is a fighting game, and the guns that are temporarily classified into the gun car ball game are not a problem.

That's why the gun car ball can last forever. No matter how long it has been, people are very keen on violence.

However, he remembered that the sales of Contra in his previous life could only be said to be barely good. Of course, part of the reason may be that it was a bit late in the era of Contra, and many similar games had appeared in the same period.

But it's different in this world. Contra in this world belongs to the first game, so the effect may be different.

"Twenty thousand?"

Zhu Youxing directly said the most likely number he expected.

"More."

"Twenty thousand one?"

Da Tianzheng: "Contra, 21332."

"What about Tetris?"

"29813!, I tell you, almost everyone who buys a game console will at least choose to buy Tetris!"

Sure enough, it is the world's best-selling game.

Zhu Youxing remembers that Tetris had an amazing sales volume in his previous life.

This game has almost perfect characteristics, suitable for all ages, with a low difficulty limit and a high upper limit, and it can also meet all the needs of obsessive-compulsive players.

Everyone can like and dislike different games, but only Tetris, there is almost no place to criticize. It can be said that the start is perfect.

"Let me tell you Zhuyou-san, except for Tetris, other games will gradually decrease with the daily sales, but only Tetris is selling more and more every day!"

"Takeyu-san, you have to quickly increase the stock of Tetris, otherwise I'm really worried that it won't be long before it sells out."

Zhu Youxing said: "You can wait for this first, don't worry"

Combined with the sales of game consoles and games, in a week, the revenue is close to 400 million yen.

Daejeon is really realizing how lucrative this thing is.

Especially games, he knows that the cost of this thing is frighteningly low.

The average cost of each game body plus packaging is only about 500 yen.

If this continues, it will only take two weeks to offset the cost of the previous circuit boards and advertising costs, and then the remaining 60,000 game consoles will be purely profitable.

Looking at the income, Da Tianzheng's eyes were a little red.

However, Zhu Youxing was quite calm.

He has seen games that can sell over one million in the first release, and the average of this week is less than 20,000, which is really nothing.

However, the cost of making games and game consoles in the previous life was not low, so it would not be possible for him to earn such a terrifying profit.

Also, this is the first week of console and game sales.

But in the second week, I am afraid it will not be optimistic.

How big is Japan as a whole?

The sales in the first week are probably most of the money that can be earned in a short period of time, and the rest needs to be expanded to the market.

This is probably the turn of the professionals.

When Da Tian heard Zhu Youxing's reply that there was no need to rush, he suddenly wondered: "Huh? Why? Our sales momentum is very good."

"Because almost all the people who should buy in Tokyo should have bought it now. The sales in the first week are probably the highest record in a short period of time. The upper limit of game sales fluctuates with the game console. What should be considered now is to think first. There is a way to let more people know about the game console, we need to promote it.”

Daejeon is seriously asking: "Release more advertisements?"

Zhu Youxing must know better about the game, so he didn't question it, but asked for a solution.

Advertising is still needed, but at the same time, it also needs to be promoted in major shopping malls, and it needs to be promoted in other cities. "
