610 Never compromise

610

For this new console, Zhuyouxing, as always, requires the development team to provide compatibility support for old games before developing the game console.

Universal compatibility is sometimes very convenient, but sometimes some additional costs must be paid because of the compromise on universality.

Previously, Youxing Electronic Entertainment could pick up chips manufactured by some small-scale chip companies.

But now, the chip industry has been highly centralized, with only a few products available, and the selectivity has been greatly reduced.

However, this also has the advantage that the quality of the chip is more guaranteed.

On the other hand, the price will be higher.

Especially if we insist on no compromise on universal compatibility, additional costs are inevitable.

Chip manufacturing companies have previously persuaded Yuxing Electronic Entertainment, hoping that they could change their minds and there would be no need to pay more for some old games that no longer have a large audience.

But Zhu Youxing didn't do that.

He continued to insist that he must continue to be compatible with old games.

No one's advice is of any use.

This should be regarded as Zhu Youxing's own paranoia.

From a business perspective, there is really no need for him to do this anymore.

But he has greater ambitions than commercial success, and he does not lack the benefits brought by this commercial success.

If he is really bankrupt, he will probably die of old age, but his ambition can never be abandoned.

In response to the persuasion of Airi Hayasawa and others, Takeyusei shook his head without hesitation: "This cannot be compromised. I am willing to always provide support for these old players so that they can always play them on the latest game consoles.

A familiar old game.”

Seeing Zhu Youxing's persistence, everyone finally stopped saying anything.

It really doesn’t make sense to say too much.

"So Zhuyou, how do you feel about the game console in its current state?"

After experiencing it for a while, Zhu Youxing nodded: "It's already very good. The game console is running stably. Let's get ready to put it into production."

Zhu Youxing finally made the decision, and these people all breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the price is indeed a bit higher.

But in fact, Airi Hayasawa and other development team members really like this latest game console.

Because it can show better game graphics than before.

This time it can really be called the next-generation level, and of course it belongs to the next-generation of this world.

This can be compared to the previous life where the graphics were still at PS2 level in the previous generation, and then suddenly jumped to PS4 level in the blink of an eye.

This improvement in graphics is enough to make players exclaim.

Zhu Youxing put down the controller and said: "First distribute a few engineering prototypes to our own game development team, and they will start to prepare. The price of the game console is indeed relatively high this time, but I am not completely unprepared.

Yes, players may be dissatisfied with the sales price of the game console, but they will never be dissatisfied with the games that are excellent enough."

Zhu Youxing wore a confident smile.

A game console is just a carrier, no matter how expensive it is, there is a limit.

In previous lives, Microsoft and Sony both experienced significant sales declines due to the price of their game consoles.

The price factor is definitely the main factor, but there is also another major reason, that is, while raising the price of their game consoles, these two companies have not raised the quality of the games in their own game consoles to the same level.

I spent a different amount of money, but I experienced a similar gaming experience on the cheaper game console next door. So why should I buy your more expensive game?

Just for those few exclusive games? Sorry, die-hard exclusive fans are still a minority after all, and most players will still make their choice based on how fun the game is.

After the development of the new game console was completed, these products were immediately distributed to several game development teams.

This time, Zhuyouxing is ready to go all out in order to convince players to buy this more expensive game console.

He wants players in this world to truly experience the next-generation games of their own era.

First, he arranged the first game, a game that reached the level of a masterpiece: Super Mario Galaxy.

This is a game that combines body sense, and the experience is completely different from many previous games.

Of course, it's not enough to have this masterpiece alone, a sequel to Mario Kart can also be put together.

Nowadays, Mario Kart also has a very stable player audience. Players seem to like this kind of entertainment racing competition in the form of karts. There are more players who like this game than Need for Speed ​​players.

And another advantage of Mario Kart is that it does not need to find any car companies for authorization. Those car companies even want to take the initiative to find Youxing Electronic Entertainment, hoping to give Youxing Electronic Entertainment a free license to add their own car brands to Mario Kart.

But these were all rejected by Zhu Yuxing. A game that entertains cartoons should not add too many realistic elements. This is the standard of the Mario series.

Then, there is the sequel to Dragon Quest, and even Metroid, a game that has been temporarily suspended for three or four years, as well as the sequel to Castlevania, and the high-definition remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.

version, the Super Soccer Series and the sequel to NBA Basketball.

With several top masterpiece-level games released at the same time, several development teams may be under a lot of pressure this time, but Zhuyouxing also gave them plenty of time. They can have about a year and a half to develop and prepare the game.

If it is a normal development of a game masterpiece, this time may not be enough, but with Zhu Youxing's time-traveling mind, the development direction can be very clear from the beginning and no detours will be taken, so the development efficiency can at least be achieved.

The average increase is more than 30%.

So the pressure on Zhu Youxing is not particularly great.

After the development of the game console is finalized, all that's left is to start preparations for the announcement, which is what Minoru Matsuhashi is best at.

Not long after the game console was finalized, Youxing Electronic Entertainment began to publish its latest advertisements on multiple advertising platforms.

The name of the advertisement is "Welcome to the real next era! Youxing Electronic Entertainment will announce its latest products at the 2005 International Consumer Electronics Show, so stay tuned."

Apart from these words, this advertisement does not have any other notable features.

But just this sentence is enough to touch the hearts of countless players.

In fact, players can basically guess that it is the latest game console.

After all, the gs1 game console has been released for many years, and it is already the game console with the longest cycle.

Therefore, the call for new game consoles has actually been around for a long time, but at that time, excellent works were still being released one after another, and the calls of players were often silenced by these masterpieces.

But this time with the official stone hammer, players are obviously completely unable to sit still.
