Chapter 347 Candy Bar Mobile Game
Fortunately, in this era, whether it is an arcade machine, a home machine, or a handheld game console, they are all very expensive.
Most of the games are in Europe and the United States, and the main consumer markets are also in Europe and the United States, which gave Yang Chen a good excuse.
Earn money from foreigners, grow yourself quickly, and then use it to develop games and train a group of software engineers.
Nowadays, computers have developed in the United States. When the game market has been hit, many game software engineers have transferred to computers.
Xiangjiang's future will be affected by real estate, and it will be difficult for general industries to develop effectively.
If we can achieve something in computers, we may be able to maintain our position as the center of Asia in the future.
Later generations of domestic Internet companies have never been able to open up foreign markets because they were a step too late in their deployment time.
If Hong Kong can take advantage of the trend to develop the Internet, coexist with finance and technology, and stabilize Southeast Asia and other regions, then the technology giants in the United States and the United States will not be so arrogant.
Since the 1900s, Xiangjiang has been playing an export role, especially in Southeast Asia. It once became the back garden of Xiangjiang. Any products related to Xiangjiang can sell well in Southeast Asia and other places.
The end of Atari is not only good news for Japanese game developers such as Nintendo, but also an opportunity for Yang Chen.
As the world's largest game market, the status of the United States is unquestionable. Whoever dominates the U.S. market is equivalent to dominating the world.
Later, after Nintendo dominated the U.S. game market, it directly became the world's largest game company, with a market value of nearly 100 billion U.S. dollars at one time.
And what does Nintendo rely on?
It’s just two things, console quality and game content.
Nintendo's success is due to their hard work and high-quality game content, which allowed them to capture the hearts of players, so Nintendo succeeded.
The rise and collapse of 'Atari' also made the game industry completely realize that players cannot cheat at will, otherwise, they will only suffer in the end.
Before American players are completely disappointed with the game, his most important task now is to build his own brand, bring in high-quality games, and take over the lollipop from Atari.
Next in the game market, American game developers will pay for their actions. If they want to regain the game market, they can only wait until computers become popular in the 21st century.
However, before the Americans could regain their game market share, a huge penguin with more than a billion traffics took off with little wings.
Although this penguin’s global market share is not as exaggerated as Atari and Nintendo, it still firmly occupies the top spot in the world.
There is an essential difference between first and second place. Nowadays, the number one global game company is an American company, so naturally the game center is in the United States.
Later, Nintendo replaced Atari and took the number one position, and the gaming center moved to Japan.
If Yang Chen once enters the game and takes over the lollipop from Atari, then Xiangjiang will become the center of the world's games.
Even if only Yang Chen's family dominates Xiangjiang by then, Xiangjiang will still play a role that cannot be ignored in the game market.
Of course, all this presupposes the production of a quality-guaranteed console and sufficiently excellent game content.
Atari's biggest failure was that its console was compatible with all game cartridges, so that the channel was abused by all game companies, causing players to be disappointed and completely eliminated them.
Although Nintendo's control over game channels and game developers in later generations has attracted criticism, it is undeniable that Nintendo's approach was successful and correct.
With strict control, game developers will not create a lot of mess to fool people. The better the game, the stronger Nintendo's appeal to players.
With the support of players, we can attract high-quality developers to cooperate with them.
I remember that later generations of Nintendo started with handheld consoles and entered the U.S. market, because home consoles had been completely ruined by Atari and developers.
As for that stupid guy in the arcade, research will take a long time, and sales will be greatly restricted.
Without market testing and expensive arcade machines, most arcade owners will not choose to take risks.
What's more, Atari lost its market because of too many arcade machines.
In the subsequent recession of the game market caused by the collapse of Atari, arcades will also face great implication and be boycotted by players.
In this case, he could only start with the handheld device.
Affected by the popularity of global games, there are many game manufacturers in Hong Kong, the center of Asia.
However, the game manufacturers in Hong Kong are relatively simple. Most of them are just OEMs and do not participate in game research and development.
In addition to game research and development, Xiangjiang game manufacturers can produce both game consoles and game cartridges.
The game market, which has received a large influx of capital, seems to be booming, but in fact many game manufacturers no longer have much profit to speak of.
The bigger the market is, the more people will enter, and the cake will be squeezed bit by bit.
The final result can only be that the big fish eats the small fish, and the small fish eats the shrimp.
If nothing else happens, a number of game OEMs in Hong Kong will not only close down, but will have no choice but to transform into OEMs for other electronic-related items.
As for the reason, the only reason is that Xiangjiang is too close to Japan, and they are both located in the center of Asia. Japan does not need the help of game manufacturers in Xiangjiang.
Next, Yang Chen only needs to pay to integrate a number of game manufacturers in Hong Kong, and then recruit some game engineers to participate in the gold mining operation.
Later generations of small games embedded in mobile phones on candy bars, Tetris, Snake, Sokoban, Tank Battle, Lian Lian Kan, the chess game Backgammon...
A series of mini-games suitable for all ages, perfect for a handheld console.
Nintendo pushed its handheld console to 100 million sales with Super Mario, and most of its games are only played by young people.
Now he has launched so many small games, which are completely suitable for all ages. Even women can play them for a while when they are bored.
The most important thing is that this type of game basically does not have much technical content. As long as a game engineer gets the design, he can easily produce it.
As long as he recruits more engineers, he can design and develop these games in the shortest possible time.
Games at this time really don’t need to be complicated. Before d has been used in games, the simpler something is, the more popular it is.
Nowadays, everyone plays games just to kill time when they are bored, and the level of addiction is not as high as in later generations of online games.
You can stop the game at any time and play whenever you want, whereas online games will make you feel painful every minute even if you accidentally disconnect.
No matter how violent the waves are outside, we will never give up until we finish this game.
