In China, the sales of game magazines were indeed quite good at the beginning and became a trend for a while, but he was not sure how the sales were in Japan.
However, Takeyusei vaguely remembered that after the rise of gaming in Japan in the 1980s, game guide books became a treasure trove for many people.
Some popular games will also publish separate game strategy books.
If you ask him what the best-selling game guide book is, he can’t remember clearly, but he does remember that one of his favorite games, Final Fantasy 7, has sold more than 13 million copies, and the game guide book has also sold
Millions of copies.
Therefore, this may also be a good business, and it may indeed be one of the means to increase the stickiness of game players.
A magazine dedicated to promoting games, and at least with Zhuyouxing’s crazy output, it seems that game magazines really have potential.
"Senior game fans will be keen to collect everything about the game, including behind-the-scenes stories, the latest game news, etc., so you don't have to worry that no one will read it. Therefore, please provide Kasuga with the latest news as much as possible.
Society, Kasuga Society will do its best to help any third party who joins Youxing Electronic Entertainment to help you promote it, make more money, and be welcomed by more people."
At this time, many people were already a little moved, and obviously this sounded quite reliable.
At the same time, some people still remember the key words in Zhuyuxing's words, such as Ishimura Sanye.
"President Zhuyou, you seemed to have said just now that the game magazine is just one of the expanded promotion plans?"
"Yes, in addition to this, there are other promotion channels, that is, the Internet. However, this can only be ranked behind game magazines for the time being, but in the future, this channel will definitely be the top priority."
Game magazines will be eliminated sooner or later in the future, but the Internet is definitely something that will dominate in the future.
Now it is equivalent to seizing the opportunity early. Taking advantage of the rise of the Internet to build a dedicated game recommendation channel, it will be easier to do things in the future.
It is not easy to build such a promotion platform by yourself, because the game lineup is only small, but if you attract more people, it will be different.
Zhu Youxing, this is another act of pulling people’s heads to fill the scene.
internet?
Oh, that one can really only be placed on the next level.
At this time, the Internet has just emerged.
It hadn't fully matured yet, so they didn't take it too seriously.
"In the future, the monthly magazine will focus on game strategies, behind-the-scenes stories, and some secret exclusive gossip. And I plan to open up a new platform on the Internet, mainly publishing some of the latest trial scenes of the game, so that people can feel it more intuitively.
There will also be some video interviews about the game's graphics and gameplay in the future. Our company has now established this website and is waiting for you to provide useful information and materials."
It's always good to have a new publicity channel. It's hard to say what the mentality of the fifteen individual groups is, but the representatives of the two companies, Kumotogi and Wada, are quite interested.
After the meeting ended, representatives of the two companies stayed alone and told Daigo Ikeda about the recent game development progress and "little news" of some companies.
In the next one to two months, the magazine will plan to publish the first issue, and the specific time will be when the Famicom has just exceeded one million sales.
This is also a symbol of symbolism and celebration. At the same time, in order to celebrate the sales of one million red and white consoles, Bamboo Games has also made very special preparations for this.
That is the first generation of The Legend of Zelda.
Previously, he created Dragon Quest, the first role-playing game.
This didn't go over well initially.
The main reason is that not many people in this world have the patience to play at first, and more are attracted by games that are more likely to bring sensory stimulation.
However, as time goes by, players can slowly calm down and begin to experience the richer core of the game, and the shining points of Dragon Quest begin to slowly emerge.
In addition to these, Zhuyu Xingma has changed the gameplay of Dragon Quest 1, adding richer content without major modifications to the story, and making it easier for players to immerse themselves in it.
Otherwise, given the somewhat poor gameplay of the first generation, it would probably be a little more difficult for players to immerse themselves in it.
Dragon Quest 1 allowed players to experience the charm of role-playing, and this time Zhuyusing intends to let them experience another role-playing game.
The originator of action role-playing games, The Legend of Zelda.
This type of game can also be called a real-time role-playing game, that is, the monsters no longer fight through the turn-based method of you attacking me and then attacking you, but interact with you in real time, and you need to make immediate responses.
, otherwise the monster will defeat you, which adds to the sense of urgency of the game.
Or you can think of it as a Contra that can be upgraded and equipped to continuously grow, but The Legend of Zelda is not a scroll-based game.
Moreover, in addition to these, The Legend of Zelda also adds a decryption gameplay, allowing players to find puzzles themselves and solve the secrets of the current level, thereby gaining the pleasure of solving the puzzles.
This is the same as reading those mystery books. If you can solve the current problem earlier than the characters in the mystery book, you will also get a sense of satisfaction.
Zhu Youxing has been busy with this during this period. It's not that it's difficult to do, but he just wants to be patient and do it well.
In order to celebrate the sales of one million Famicom consoles, it is also to better show the charm of the Legend of Zelda to the people of this world.
Also, that is to deal with the strong attack of Surui Electronics.
Just a few days after Zhuyouxing held a meeting with seventeen groups, Surui Electronics took action.
After three or four months of silence, they spent a large sum of money to blow their clarion call for another attack on television.
More than ten Japanese companies that are already well-known in the field of electronic software, such as Fortune Technology, CJK, Baidu, etc., have jointly established their website and will simultaneously release their electronic games on Surui Electronics' pn-type game consoles.
Or audio and video software.
That's right, pn can even be used as a karaoke if you want.
Surui Electronics was inspired by the gun-shaped handle from Youxing Electronic Entertainment and found that the handle does not seem to have to have a specific shape. In fact, special handles can also have some specialized uses.
Since the gun-type handle was temporarily unavailable due to patent restrictions, they simply developed a microphone handle. The microphone was designed by the industrial giant and was very compact and exquisite, and quite good-looking.
If you buy this microphone handle, there is even a built-in game that can be used to sing. In the TV commercial, the famous singing star Kaoru Nakamura holds the microphone handle and sings his most famous song loudly. It is very beautiful in the advertisement. When famous
After the singer's singing ended, a perfect score of 100 appeared on the screen, and there were bursts of gorgeous fireworks to celebrate the singer. At the same time, the singer also showed a smile that could captivate all living beings.
Then the image of the singer gradually dimmed, and the full picture of the microphone handle appeared on the TV, with the words "Official Release" written below! You can get the singer's singing voice for only 7,000 yen!
But this is not the end. After the advertisement for the microphone handle ended, another picture suddenly appeared. Several products with black borders appeared in a row from left to right, and below the TV screen were written several large characters.
With: More controllers with infinite possibilities! Stay tuned!
This commercial aired for a full three minutes, and there was no repetitive content within three minutes. It can be said that the capacity is extremely high!
After Zhu Youxing saw this advertisement, he expressed that he was greatly shocked.
I didn’t expect that Surui Electronics has started selling controllers as peripherals? The brain circuit of Surui Electronics is a bit fierce!
To be honest, I really didn't think of this path, at least not yet.
People in this world are indeed not lacking in imagination, innovation and competitive spirit.
