Chapter 214: Proud Nintendo

"President, the investigation is clear. The VCD storage format used on Zhiduoxing G is not only used to store game data, but also songs, movies and other works."
"And this VCD is a technology developed by a Huaxia company called Wanyan. It has applied for a patent and launched a product. This product, similar to the function of a video recorder, can play some movies and MVs, and can also be used as karaoke. "
Nintendo’s Matsushima really nodded, so it seems that this technology is nothing. Isn’t it just a storage method, but this way, you can avoid some pirated game discs.
There are many companies that can produce CD discs, and many companies have related technologies, but VCD, only Wan Yan Company, and only licensed to Zhiduoxing Company, which makes other pirates unable to start.
However, he believes that it is not difficult to crack the technology based on the pirates. When the time comes to produce some cheap game discs, that Zhiduoxing company's genuine games will not be sold.
"That is to say, this is just a new storage format? Have you investigated, how much storage is this disc?"
"Like the CD, about 700M."
same?
Matsushima Shinji laughed, thinking what an epoch-making technology, the original capacity has not increased. In other words, it can only store so much data, and the game cannot be too complicated.
"Okay, don't worry about it. Has the game analysis results of Zhiduoxing G and 3DO come out?"
"It's out, it's in the red folder over there." Secretary Hui reported.
"Well, you go out."
Matsushima Shinji opened the red folder, and there was a comparison between the games released separately on Zhiduoxing G and the games exclusively released on 3DO. Among them, the best sales situation is KOF93, because this is a random gift from Zhiduoxing G, and the user survey is satisfactory The rate exceeds 90%.
In this way, players who like fighting games basically like this game, and even some players who didn't like fighting games before also like this game.
There is also a shooting game called alloy warhead, which is actually very popular, and even has a higher satisfaction rate than KOF.
As for some other games, the difference in performance is relatively large. Some user satisfaction surveys exceed 80%, and some are less than 30%. Especially at 3DO, there is currently no game with more than 80% satisfaction.
From the perspective of Nintendo, Songxia Company thinks that it will be a hardware and has first-class technology, so it can be a good game console? What the game console really sells is not the game console, but the game it is equipped with.
Since the price of Songxia's machine was too high, Nintendo knew that Songxia would not succeed. Some of their design concepts are very good, but they also have a lot of shortcomings.
Nintendo had originally planned to launch a 32-bit game console, but because the contract with Schneider was torn up, it was planned to directly cross 32-bit and make a 64-bit game console.
At first, he couldn't see himself clearly, and he actually required game sales to pay dividends, and even required to use related technology to make his own brand of game consoles. This is to use Nintendo to sound the banner and then enter the game industry.
Nintendo feels that even those companies that develop games make games consoles better than those that make electronic hardware. This is no, Songxia will flutter the street.
As the world's top consumer electronics manufacturer, its sales volume is not as good as China's Zhiduoxing. A few months later, 3DO's global sales exceeded two million units, but not only Songdo, but also Sanyo, Samsung, and ATT.
They all produce 3DO, but the brand is different, the price is slightly different.
However, the combination of these companies has not been comparable to Zhiduoxing. The sales of Zhiduoxing have also exceeded two million units. In the international market, it is comparable to 3DO, but Zhiduoxing also has a Chinese market. Everyone thinks that the undeveloped market has provided more than 50,000 units of sales for Zhiduoxing.
It seems that this data is very poor, and the market of more than one billion people actually only sells so little. If you think about the sales of other companies in the Chinese market, you will know how difficult this data is.
What makes Nintendo more concerned is that the sales volume of Zhiduoxing's game discs is much better than that of 3DO. Nintendo's main point of mocking 3DO is that they are biased.
Only pay attention to the development of game consoles, but ignore the development of games. Several 3DO shareholders thought that the other party would focus on developing games, but as a result, no one had developed them well, and they obtained the copyright of some games, which was not exclusive.
I bought the exclusive copyright with great enthusiasm, but the result was not so good. Even more funny is that Songxia and other companies let game companies develop games according to their requirements, and then the game companies sell them independently, and they take a commission.
Let the game company bear its own profit and loss, can the game company do?
At the end of this year, 32-bit game consoles from companies such as NEC, Sega, and Chang Ni will be listed. It is precisely because of this that Nintendo chose to skip 32-bit, 64-bit main, and win in the future.
Now all gaming machine manufacturers are making 32-bit gaming machines, so their energy is also on this product.
Although Nintendo's SFC sales will decline a lot, their handheld GB sales are still very good, and game sales are also good.
Nintendo's plan is to let these manufacturers fight on the 32-bit configuration, it is best to smash money to grab the market, let some companies withdraw, and then their 64-bit game consoles come out and harvest directly.
Now, depending on the situation, things are indeed developing as they planned~EbookFREE.me~Although there is a company that suddenly emerges, it doesn't matter, is it a spoiler? What kind of sales is this?
Their Nintendo GB sold out 4 million units within a month of the island country. In the United States, 12 million units were sold in a few months. In Europe, the performance was also very good. The subsequent game cartridges and hardware upgrades were enough to make a lot of money.
With such hard work, you can sell 2 million game consoles. Is there any need to pay attention to it?
I thought that Zhiduoxing also has a good VCD technology, which may bring some impact to them. Now it seems that this technology is also a gimmick. At least in the game console industry, it is just a gimmick.
I heard that many companies contacted Wanyan and Zhiduoxing before and said that they wanted to purchase a technology license for VCD. As a result, they were rejected and they actually wanted a piece-rate license fee.
A useless broken technique turned the Chinese into a treasure.
They don’t even ask Nintendo. Upgrade some classic games first, then cut a leek.
