At the beginning of 1986, Nintendo learned from last year's lessons and expanded production, so Zhan Long's "Football World Cup" produced 600,000 copies in less than a month.

Just in time for June 1st, Zhan Long’s "Football World Cup" will be released.

Another major event in the gaming industry is that the trial issue of "FAMI" was released, and the first issue of the magazine selected Zhan Long to win four awards in a row for reporting.

Su Butong once confessed to Hai Sheng that the competitors of "Game Collection" were never in China. Su Butong felt that the emergence of "FAMI Pass" would be an irritation to "Game Collection". Now "Game Collection"

Most of the reports have a certain lag, and are mostly compiled based on videos and magazines sent back from Japan. The publications published in April introduce games released in February. And "FAMI Pass" is backed by Japan, a big gaming country.

The ability to obtain first-hand information is far beyond what "Game Collection" can match.

But "Game Collection" has its own unique advantage - it relies on fighting dragons.

War Dragon is now a benchmark in the industry, creating several game types that are not available on the market, and these game types will expand in the future. Players' interest in War Dragon may one day be as popular as Nintendo's, as in "FAMI"

"Tong" was originally considered to be a special issue on Nintendo games, and was translated into "Nintendo News". "Game Collection" was engraved with the brand of Zhan Long at the beginning of its birth.

Origin and lineage are equally important in the gaming industry.

During the month of waiting for the production of the game cartridge, Zhanlong's powerful advertising campaign has also begun. Almost all fans waiting for the start of the World Cup know that there is such a company on the earth that will produce a game related to the World Cup.

On June 1, the day after the World Cup kicked off, this sports game, considered the greatest in history, was released.

On the day of release, 600,000 copies of the game were sold out.

Fans are such a group. When they see their favorite team playing poorly, they wish they could go up and kick it themselves, as if this is the only way the team can win.

Especially in the opening game on May 31, the Bulgarian team surprised everyone when Nasko Sirakov's goal in the 85th minute helped the team draw with Italy.

After all, Serie A was at its peak at the time, and there were six first-class superstars in the Italian team: No. 2 Baresi (then at AC Milan), one of the best defenders in history, No. 3 Bergomi (then at Inter Milan), and No. 4

Agostini (then at Juventus), No. 6 Ferry (then at Inter Milan), No. 7 Maldini (then at AC Milan) - one of the best left backs in history, No. 15 Baggio

(At Juventus at the time)----Famous star. Such a team with high hopes for the championship was tied by Bulgaria. This is unacceptable and unimaginable by all media and fans.

Therefore, the angry fans sought a sense of presence in the game and kept beating Bulgaria with the Italian team, as if this could change the result.

In his previous life, because Subutong watched football late at night, he could no longer remember who won and who lost in a game. He only remembered that Argentina won the World Cup with the outstanding performance of Maradona, followed by Italy, France and Spain.

Compared with the favorites like Hude, Argentina in 1986 was a completely inferior grassroots team. But Maradona changed this situation alone. He was the absolute core and leader of the team. So Su Butong was in Xiangjiang

I bet heavily on Argentina in the lottery with Macau, which was a bit of a time-travel benefit for myself.

So I have to admire Su Butong's extraordinary vision. Just using a small change in the original Hot Blood Soccer program, the game sales exceeded 600,000. Nintendo, smelling the smell of money and copper, even suspended other game production lines and went all out to produce the World Cup version.

The passionate football is coming.

And this initiative had immediate results. In mid-June, a large number of fans who could not buy the game complained, and invisibly, a lot of free advertising was provided for the game, so the sales exceeded 1.5 million in half a month.

, and these games were all sold out - because many players who were not fans also joined in the competition for the games, forming a spectacle at the time, that is, when not watching the World Cup, everyone was playing football, and playing the World Cup

At that time, someone turned on two TVs at the same time, one to watch the World Cup and the other to watch the game.

Since the game has a computer battle function, as the biggest metaphysics, someone tried to use this game to simulate the results of the game before buying football lottery tickets. And what is even more ridiculous is that he actually bought the right one based on the final score formed by the computer! So he passed it to ten

It is said that many football lottery merchants have been inspired by this and have purchased FC and Hot Blood Football World Cup, using this to attract lottery fans to place bets at lottery stations. This is because this game is used to predict football scores.

So when the market supply exceeded demand, a game cartridge was sold at a high price of US$300.

This is of course not the end yet, because the World Cup ended at the end of June. Before the end of the World Cup, Nintendo produced a total of 6.78 million copies of "Football World Cup Edition". By August, the game sales reached 9.26 million, almost becoming

The first game with sales exceeding 10 million. This game was successfully selected into the Guinness World Records as the fastest game to reach 6 million sales and the fastest game to reach 9 million sales.

And from this one game alone, Zhanlong made a profit of more than 300 million yuan!

In the September issue of the newspaper, FAMI News highlighted the first and fastest-selling game, which bears the name War Dragon.

The report stated: “As Zhan Long’s trump card game, “Hot Blooded Football World Cup” didn’t have anything that made people think it was outstanding when it was first born. There was no major improvement in the graphics of this game, but in the entire game

The rhythm of the game is smoother, and the player values ​​are more detailed, so the distance from reality is getting closer and closer. The battle between players is not only a test of one-on-one skills, but also needs to test the players' skills.

The tactical level makes a football game more complete, subverting all previous football games, including Zhan Long's own first generation "Hot Blood Football". The offensive rhythm is much faster than that of the first generation, making the whole game more enjoyable to play.

.”

This is the charm of the game. When the game meets the Football World Cup, it really complements each other.

The gaming industry is also extremely jealous of the wave of World Cup bonuses that Zhan Long has caught up with. They are all regretting that they do not have the brains of Su Butong to take advantage of hot topics, and they have missed a wave of business opportunities.

People at Nintendo have a +N favorable impression of Su Butong, because the huge sales of the game have actually boosted the sales of game consoles. Nintendo, which is good at doing business, has launched a bundled version of the game, and it is said that the sales volume is also in the millions.

After Zhanlong tasted the benefits in the initial stage, he began to make subsequent plans and carried out large-scale advertising and promotion of "Jin Yong's Legend of Heroes" and "Tetris" in various countries during the World Cup.

After players have played the version of "Hot Blooded Football World Cup", they naturally have a preliminary understanding of the Dragon War game, that is, the graphics are better than those of other FC games on the market, especially those players who have never played the game in the first place.

, after playing football, I was attracted by the carefully edited pre-roll advertisements.

The mysterious and ancient East, the gorgeous and magical martial arts moves, the freedom of movement to explore the large map... Almost at the same time, the attention of male players was attracted by this game.
