Tokyo Video Game Tycoon - Chapter 956 Limited machine

  Chapter 956 Limited machine

  956

   "Establish a new production line to manufacture red and white machines, and the size of this red and white machine can be smaller, but the appearance needs to completely reproduce the original red and white machine, and then, let's do a show operation."

   "What?" Everyone watched Zhu Youxing constantly explaining his sales methods, and now they felt that several of Zhu Youxing's sales methods looked very weird, which they had never thought of before.

  But let them see it now, they still think that this way of limiting the machine should not necessarily increase too much income, right?

   After all, there must be a small number of people who are really willing to spend and buy more repeated game consoles.

  If Zhu Youxing knew what they were thinking, he would laugh and say that they still underestimated the purchasing power of players after all.

   The purchasing power of each player has not been fully released.

In his original world, some players would spend hundreds of thousands and millions of dollars in an online game at every turn, just to get a high enough ranking in that Internet game world, or simply to Want to look prettier than others.

  League of Legends, a game that only sells skins, can surpass all traditional prop-fee games in a certain period of time in terms of overall revenue, which shows that players have a strong spending power.

  And these limited machines are actually equivalent to the game's "skin" in the eyes of the core players of the game

  They don't refuse such things, they can't refuse.

"This time we can increase the production cost of the Famicom to about 1,000 yuan, use more and better circuit components, and increase built-in storage devices. At the same time, we have to do another thing, which is to sell digital, The release number of the new model of Famicom is from 000000 to 999999, a total of one million units, everyone will carry out a purchase restriction strategy, and one million units will be distributed to different regions of the world. As for the selling price of this game machine... um... "

  Zhu Youxing thought for a moment, then quickly raised his head and said, "Only sell for more than 5,000 yen each."

  Everyone was stunned again for a long time this time.

   "President... you said 5,000 yen?"

   Someone couldn't help asking tentatively.

   "That's right, 5,000 yen is about the same. Of course, this price can be adjusted to a certain extent, for example, it can be increased to 6,000 yen, or even higher."

  Natsume Yasulong couldn't help but ask: "Really... would anyone be willing to buy this kind of outdated product? Then buy it at a price of more than forty or fifty dollars?"

   "Yes, believe me, let's do it first, start increasing the new Famicom production line, and now Yasunaka Natsume, you can start promoting materials and publicize the replica Famicom on all platforms."

  5,000 yen, which is much more expensive than when the red and white machines were sold later.

  If this price is placed in the past, many people will probably think that Zhu Youxing is a lunatic, and only a fool would buy this kind of thing when he sees a guy with an eye for money.

   Still numbered? Who cares about those six-digit numbers? It's just a dream.

   "President, do we only launch one million units?"

"Well, just one million units. Of course, the Famicom production line can be readjusted to continue to produce other game consoles. After the Famicom, there will be SFC, one million sets for the Super Famicom, and then GB...the launch will be carried out step by step. "

this…

  Everyone felt that the current president really came up with some weird moves.

   But does it really work?

  However, this is also the president's request and order, and they are just the president's subordinates.

  In this company, Zhu Youxing is the only speaker.

   Such a corporate structure has advantages and disadvantages.

  The development of such a company will completely depend on Zhu Youxing's decision.

   And once Zhu Youxing made a mistake in his decision, the loss to the company would be catastrophic.

  However, so far, Zhu Youxing has not made any decision that really caused a big problem, the most is to make less money.

  Zhu Youxing thinks that the sales behavior of the limited machine that he launched to GB is almost the same.

   This method is a temporary use, to give some players who are really nostalgic a chance to re-experience the old game.

   Sometimes some players are more complicated.

   They don't want to experience old games on new consoles because it would lack that 'feel'

  But if an old game console is placed in front of them, and even some game operations and operating logic are still in the old form, they will be very happy to accept this behavior.

  Zhuyouxing intends to let these old players also have a dream come true.

  In his previous life, Zhu Youxing had several replicas of retro-level old game consoles on hand, which became the treasures of Zhu Youxing and his father.

   "By the way, President, you also said that there are other means, what would that be?"

   "Ah, don't be in a hurry, take your time first, publicize the current limited machine strategy well, and the latter strategy will continue to be slowly promoted."

  Zhu Youxing is not in a hurry to use all the moves now.

   It’s hard to say that launching a limited edition machine is enough to increase your own profit, so other sales methods will not be used.

   "Okay President." Natsume Yasulong nodded and prepared to leave.

  But just as he stepped into the elevator, he seemed to remember something, and turned back again.

   "Oh President, I have one more thing to tell you."

"What?"

   "Someone is infringing."

   "Infringement? How? Is it profitable using our image?"

  Natsume Yasulong nodded with a strange expression: "That's right, it is using our game character image to make a profit, but this kind of profit is a little different."

   "Why is it different?"

   “The people who make money from our video game image are those who... make small movies, and a group of people who engage in 3D small video subscriptions on the Internet.”

  Zhu Youxing raised his eyebrows.

   Yo?

   Really familiar.

   "Details."

  Natsume Yasulong looked at Takeyusei's reaction and blinked.

   "President, your elaboration refers to..."

  Zhu Youxing said: "Of course it is to detail what kind of company scale is infringing, otherwise what do you think?"

"Oh... nothing, nothing. Some of the companies making small movies that are infringing right now are some pretty good companies. They didn't obtain our authorization, and then used our characters to shoot at will. The president needs us to stop it Is this behavior? Because it will still affect our image after all..."

   Zhu Youxing said without hesitation: "There is no way to completely ban this kind of thing."

   "Then we..."

   "Sue them for copyright infringement, and get more money from them. Sue according to the popularity of different characters. It just happens that we are in an economic downturn. Maybe this round of lawsuits can bring us additional revenue."

   "Oh, by the way, those profit-making behaviors of the private subscription system will also be sued. If you don't make money, you won't make it for nothing."

"Ok, I see."
