Chapter 25 Beautiful Teen Games
Regardless of whether the game production company is good or not, whether the game production company will go bankrupt. Anyway, as we enter the new era of three-dimensional games, players feel extremely satisfied.
The game format of electronic games is inherently limited by the hardware level. Once the hardware makes a breakthrough, there will be a large wave of new forms of electronic games.
But unlike ten years ago, there are fewer situations when traveling around the streets to other people's homes to watch other people's games. Most of the communication between players about games has become air-to-air during chatting.
The electrical appliance street in Akihabara has been the most affected in the past decade.
With the popularity of animation and electronic games, Akihabara gradually became an area dominated by games, manga, and animation secondary cultural products.
Whether it is a teenager or a thirty, he still thinks that his teenager is gathered in Akihabara, where the holy land of gamers is the gamers.
In March, Akihabara is still a little cold, and Mie Mori, wearing slightly thick clothes, walks on the streets of Akihabara.
Electronic games have been popular in Japan for twenty years. At the beginning, almost all young men were playing. However, after more than twenty years of development, there is more or less a game they like in Japan, both men, women, young and old.
Mie Maori is not a traditional game console player. Her hands are very stupid and she can't play games that require constant operation.
The games she is good at and likes are the kind of beautiful boy game that requires almost no operation and only needs to click with a mouse.
That's right, it's the beautiful boys who are painted by painters, who are very cute and docile in their personality.
Although it is not a shameful hobby, she still has no friends in school. Even if she comes out to find games, she will come out alone.
It seems normal for boys to play the beautiful girl game, but girls like her seem to become weird when playing the beautiful girl game.
Mori Mie breathed out and continued walking on the street.
Although it is only eight o'clock in the morning, I can see many people walking around in Akihabara. Today is a day off, and there will definitely be many people who like animations, comics and games coming to Akihabara for shopping. And Mie Maori wants to successfully buy the Meiyouth game before seeing someone he knows.
After many twists and turns, Māori Mie entered a narrow path.
Mei Teenager Games is not as good as those console games with large sales. Its sales are much smaller, and no major companies like to do it.
The games played by Mie Maori are basically made by some small groups.
It can be said that almost nine or nine models of every ten beautiful boy games are made by these small groups of individual nature.
The games made by these small groups cannot appear in the store without being reviewed by the ethical review committee.
Therefore, if you want to buy these games, you can only come to these rental houses as game stores.
"Dong, dong, dong." Knocked the door three times rhythmically.
"Sheep." The door opened.
Inside the door was a boy who looked in his thirties and was slightly vicissitudes, but his body was relatively thin, with long hair and a gray long sleeve.
The boy pushed his glasses and said with a hunchback, "You are here, there are a few new games. I wonder if you will like it."
After saying that, he turned sideways and let Mie Mori walk to the entrance and close the door.
Although the room inside the door is not big, only the size of twenty or thirty tatami, it has a unique world. From the beginning of entering the entrance hall, there are either brand new games or game posters hanging on the walls.
Since the year before yesterday, these beautiful boy games running on computers seem to have suddenly changed from floppy disks to CDs.
While the price has dropped a little, it has actually increased the reliability of the game carrier.
CDs and floppy disks are storage media with limited read and write times, although they may not necessarily be broken many times. However, the probability of floppy disk failure is much larger than CDs.
Because the structure of the floppy disk is more complex, there are built-in motors, transmission mechanisms, and various fragmented objects inside the floppy disk.
The CD is just a plate with a thin metal film. It does not have so many parts and is relatively reliable.
What does it affect reliability?
Basically, it is the magnetic head or other thing that reads the data to scrape the metal film.
The reason why Mei Teenager Games changed from floppy disks to CDs is mainly because optical drives have become popular, and the cost of CDs is lower than that of floppy disks.
Of course, although the cost of CD is lower, the price of the game has not decreased.
Compared to the average console game price of several thousand yen, although the cost of Meiyou Game is lower, the price is higher.
The beautiful boy game of 7,000 or 8,000 yen is the cheapest one.
The beautiful boy games with souvenirs with limited first-time versions are sold at a price ranging from 10,000 to 20,000 yen.
Why are games so expensive?
It is because the market for Beautiful Boys Games is small, and the people who buy it are just a small circle. The big-selling Beautiful Boys Games can only be sold for two or three thousand copies.
For those small teams who are just starting to make the Beautiful Boy game, even the first batch of a game will not ship more than one hundred copies.
In such a market that is not large-scale and standardized, the price of a game is not much related to its own quality. What is more important is the sales of this game.
A lot of sales may be cheaper to stimulate sales.
Small sales may be more expensive, making the profit of a single product higher.
However, Mie Maori has never heard of anyone making the Mei Boy game to lose money.
Because the Beautiful Boy Game is almost a cost-free transaction.
In this era, it is rare to make games with only one art, one music, one script, and one program.
Even one person can bear the four tasks of art, music, scripts, and programs.
In addition, a beautiful boy game came out in a few months.
Not very difficult at all.
And there is no promotional fee, so how can this kind of game be compensated?
"I want this one, this one, this one." Mie Maori chose three new games and handed the packaging to the thin middle-aged man.
"Total 21,000 yuan." said the thin man.
Mie Mori took out two ten thousand pieces from her wallet, handed them to the man one thousand. She carried her small pocket and walked back to the entrance door. As soon as she opened the door and wanted to go out, she saw her classmate Ryota Miyamoto.
