Game Development: I Built a Game Empire

Chapter 547



All knowledgeable people are in a daze.

Not for others.

Because this is so cheap!

Judging from a hardware parameter released by the switch.

The cost is obviously not high.

If we look purely at the cost of the machine hardware, the price is 1,799 yuan.

That profit is many times over.

But the account cannot be settled like this!

The labor costs of machine production and site costs, these cost money, right?

The marketing and advertising expenses for machine sales include the distribution of goods by offline dealers. This also costs money, right?

In addition, Fengyun Games announced a price of 1,799 yuan.

Therefore, excluding third-party dealers outside the official website, the price of the goods will definitely be much lower than this figure.

Otherwise, how much money do dealers make?

This time and again, the price of 1,799 yuan is not even worth the money.

I'm afraid Fengyun Games will still lose money if it sells a machine, right?

12. There were obviously capable people among the media reporters who came to the press conference.

After learning the news, I immediately made a calculation based on the parameters currently announced by Fengyun Games.

Then he came to a conclusion.

That means this Fengyun Game is definitely selling at a loss!

"Mr. Chen, can you still make money with this switch?"

"yes! yes!"

When it was the reporter's turn to ask questions, almost all reporters asked the same question.

It is also an issue that many game industry and players are concerned about.

What does Fengyun Games want?

Selling handheld consoles and then losing money yourself is a lot of money. Burning?

"Of course we can’t make money. In fact, we lose about 0 yuan every time we sell one unit."

"But today is a handheld console launch, and the focus should be on the handheld console and what kind of games it can play."

"As for losing money or making money, this should not be a question that players should consider."

"What they need to consider is whether such a switch and the games that can be played on it are worth it to them and whether it can impress them."

"So, let’s take a look at the game lineup that comes with the switch at launch."

Looking at everyone, Chen Xu said with a slight smile.

The implication is, don't think about whether the machine makes money or loses money.

Focus more on the game.

At the same time, he heard Chen Xu's words, the game Some people in the industry have also thought about it.

Listening to Chen Xu's tone, is this the idea of ​​​​making a loss on the machine from the beginning and making money from the game?

But the key question is, can this be done?

Palm How much sales can the machine have?

Are you afraid that you will lose money in the end and make a profit?

And the current hardware configuration of the switch can be said to be relatively low-end.

What kind of games can be developed on such a platform?

This For a moment, many people had a lot of doubts in their minds.

But soon, everyone was attracted by the promotional video on the big screen.

In the spacious living room, a beautiful girl in pajamas was sitting cross-legged on the sofa. , holding a controller in her hand and playing games on the TV.

Next to her was the switch on the conversion box, and the picture on the screen showed the jelly beans.

When she was about to rush to the finish line, a pair of sinful little hands next to her pulled her Live.

So he was eliminated. (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

The girl showed a depressed expression, but the next moment she saw the time on the clock, she quickly got up from the sofa and ran to the bathroom. Put on makeup, change clothes, ready to go out.

But before leaving, she went to the switch on the table next to her, took it out and put it into her bag. At this time, the camera also gave a special close-up.

The next video When we got to the subway, the girl sitting on the horizontal board took out the switch from her backpack. []

Displayed on the screen was a scene from Animal Crossing.

Countless islanders and small animals greeted her cordially.

After waiting at the station, the girl came to a park.

In the park, many people are already waiting there.

After seeing the girl, everyone waved together.

There was also a switch placed next to them.

Then everyone pulled out a handle of their respective switches, divided into two and formed a team to play the game together.

The next moment is a fragmented picture.

I was lying on the bed playing Switch. During the lunch break at the company, I took out the Switch from my bag.

At an offline party on the weekend, everyone played Fall Bean Man with their switches.

Seeing this, game media and industry practitioners all had some sudden ideas.

So is this switch for offline social networking?

Looking at it this way, it seems that it is indeed the case.

Who else is the mole in the Fall Bean Man that was circulated on the Internet before? These two games, it seems that 817 are both party games.

Many people seem to feel that they have seen the truth.

But the next moment, the lights at the live conference suddenly dimmed.

On the big screen behind him, a red hat LOGO suddenly appeared.

Incredibly cheerful music came out.

This is a brand new promotional video for the game!

All the players became excited after seeing this scene.

Accompanied by cheerful music, a huge hat airship appeared.

An urban country with a modern urban background.

A forest country full of life.

The land of sand and ocean.

In addition, there are desert countries, ice fields... strange worlds with different styles appear in front of all players.

What looks like a middle-aged plumber wearing a red hat appears on the screen.

Then the adventure began in this fairy tale-like world.

Jump and run, use the hat to attack, and can also possess monsters.

Finally, with the appearance of the big devil Bowser.

The name of the game appears on the screen
