"President, according to the current feedback on the Internet, we estimate that the sales data on the first day can reach at least 100,000."
During the conference call, Songqiao reported his statistics truthfully. .
"Can those small retailers hold back?"
"Can't help but hold back, after all, they are still very afraid of contractual compensation."
"That's good, this is our strategy, and we must not release prematurely. Otherwise, the publicity effect will be much worse, what is the expectation of the crowd now?"
Matsuhashi replied: "Generally speaking, there are about 500,000 gamers in the United States, and 10% of them are interested in SFC. The others are new player groups that we have developed in various universities. The estimated sales figures I mentioned are actually relatively conservative. If we were more aggressive, I think the sales on the first day would exceed 30. 10,000 is also possible."
Zhu Youxing said: "Then we will distribute the goods according to the first-day sales of 500,000. Anyway, we have no shortage of supply, and remember to promise those American retailers that we can't sell them. The original price will be recovered, so that they have no worries in the beginning."
Zhu Youxing is really afraid that these small department stores will lose their chains at a critical moment, so I have to give them a little bit of bottom line so that they can sell their products with confidence.
As long as the market is opened, then things will be easy to talk about.
"Okay."
At this moment, Zhu Yuxing suddenly remembered something, and he asked, "Oh, by the way, are you ready for the mock mail?"
When Matsuhashi heard the word mock mail, he first paused, then smiled and said: "Of course it's ready. In fact, we started sending emails to the top executives of large department stores yesterday about the results of our investigations, mocking them for ignoring hundreds of thousands of customers."
"Very good, keep it up, you don't have to report the daily sales to me, but don't forget to send a copy to those department store retailers every day."
"Don't worry, the president, I will definitely do it beautifully!"
Song Hashimoto also showed a sly smile.
This trick can be said to be quite disgusting.
Let you guys who look down on us look at our sales and make you regret it.
Of course, the main reason is to torture them mentally, and finally force them to take the initiative to make peace, willing to accept the game sales rights of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment, and since the other party takes the initiative to come to the door, there must be some additional conditions. , otherwise there will be no active effect.
After the conference call, Take Yusei returned to overseeing the production of Castlevania.
The game is now about half finished.
The first generation of Castlevania in the previous life was released in FC.
This time, Zhu Yuxing skipped FC and chose to sell it on SFC. No matter the picture effects, game sound effects or game content, it will definitely be more enriched, so there are still a lot of things to do.
This time, Zhu Yuxing plans to release the first part of Castlevania first, and then after a while, he will release the story content of the second part of the previous life as the expansion content of the first part, which is equivalent to the game. DLC is available, but this is a real game capacity, but the material of the original game can be reused, which can greatly reduce the cost of making the game, of course, the price can be relatively reduced.
The Witcher 3, who was conscientious enough in the previous life, took this road and won a good reputation, but later they were smashed by another game.
In terms of sound effects, this time, Zhu Yuxing asked a full-time composer to be the person in charge of the main composition. Under the guidance of Zhu Yuxing, this person will try to make the sound effects as close as possible to the classic sound effects of Castlevania in the previous life. , to ensure perfection.
In film and television dramas, excellent theme songs will in turn help the promotion of film and television dramas.
Video game music actually has the same effect.
Like the enduring Mario opening sound effects, as well as the classic Dragon Quest Proof of Courage, and Final Fantasy's Crystal Overture, Take Yusei is not stingy in this regard, giving plenty of time and money.
While supervising the development of Castlevania, Zhu Yuxing is also constantly paying attention to the trends in the United States.
Street Fighter hasn't been released yet, but it looks like it's been a hit for a long time.
In the toy section of some department stores recently, adults and children have often come over to ask if there are street fighters for sale.
Or ask if there is SFC and several other games.
However, the answers given by most mainstream department stores are very consistent.
Sorry, we haven't heard of this product, but if you're interested in video games, you can buy the PN consoles we're selling, or other Lilda 2600 consoles, etc.
There are also very fun games in these consoles.
Some people who are still a little confused about video games are naturally fooled and spend money to buy these game consoles.
But because they had not experienced it before, they had a lot of fun.
In addition to some large department stores, some people who asked about small department stores got another answer.
On February 1st, the Street Fighter, Street Basketball, and SFC game consoles you are looking forward to will be officially released. Now we have started accepting pre-orders. If you pre-order, you can also get some small gifts, 199 dollars a game console, 69.9 a piece Games, you can't buy a game and you can't be fooled.
Just this pre-sale system has already made these small department stores who have not shipped yet very happy.
At least this proves that this thing is really interesting, and when it is actually released, it should not worry about sales.
In addition, Zhuyouxing promised to provide sufficient supply, and they also opened the reservation window to their heart's content, and then waited for the official delivery.
And the time soon came to the first day of February.
On that day, it did not appear to be close to the crowded place in Japan.
After all, Youxing Electronic Entertainment has just developed in the United States. No matter how much publicity it is, it will still not be able to form much social repercussions when competitors deliberately suppress it.
However, there were still a lot of people queuing up to buy.
Players who have pre-booked can take the pre-order code and identification to directly receive the game console and games.
On the other side, there are some customers queuing, most of them are college students from nearby universities.
They are usually the kind of people who have a little spare cash in their hands and love to be trendy.
In the crowd, there was a man in his thirties, he was wearing a suit, which seemed out of tune with the young people in the crowd.
His name is Wilson. He was fortunate enough to go to Japan on a business trip. After experiencing such interesting things as a red and white machine, he became out of control and became a loyal fan of the game console. At the same time, he did not forget to buy it for his daughter. The gifts were a brand new FC game console and a Tuomagezi. His daughter cried very sad that day. His wife almost beat him to death, but he was very happy inside.
