!!! MACHINE TRANSLATION !!! !!! IT'S NOT AN MTL AND I POSTED IT HERE SO I COULD READ WITHOUT WIFI ON PHONE APP SK DON'T EXPECT QUALITY TRANSLATION !!! Video games are one of the important ways to entertain people in the new era. However, the Japanese Zhu Yuxing who traveled to a parallel world found that the game industry in this world was extremely sluggish, and it seemed that it had never emerged. So Zhu Yuxing decided to bring the ninth art to the world. "Mom, Super Mario 3 is out! This is my most wanted Christmas present!"

===339 Sales of over 100 million===(None Edited)

  Zhu Yuxing proposed to give results in one or two years.

  It also gave him some time to relax.

  For now, his focus is on Final Fantasy 7, and everything else has to be put aside for now.

  But he could first propose new development tasks to other restricted development teams, clarify the framework of the real-time strategy game, and then let them toss for a while.

  Time came to October 1999. After four months of sales of GS1, the sales volume has reached tens of millions.

  It was the second-highest selling console of the year.

  The top game is GBA, which sold for half a year more this year. The sales in ten months this year reached 13 million units, which is very scary.

  Now that the sales of video games have really entered a white-hot stage, the game industry is rapidly rising, and it is no longer like the kind of petty slapstick that used to be hundreds of thousands of millions.

  There are also several video games that have sold millions of dollars during this period.

  Not counting the bundled games, Super Mario Bros. 3, Super Mario World, and the retail version of Tetris have all successfully surpassed tens of millions of sales.

  It is worth mentioning that the sales data of the original FC game console exceeded 100 million after six years.

  Originally, according to commercial laws, such an old machine should have entered the elimination process, and if it is more aggressive, the new host may be directly discontinued.

  But Zhu Yuxing still has feelings for the first game console he created.

  So even if it doesn't make much money now, as long as it doesn't lose money, the factory has been making continuous production.

  But now this machine is more sold to other countries with less economic ability.

  Even including tariffs, the average selling price is less than ten dollars.

  For ten dollars, you can get a genuine game console, as well as better after-sales service. Even if the price of the fake game console is more advantageous, it is still inferior to the genuine one.

  Coupled with the open source of game consoles, pirated games are not strictly restricted, which has become the biggest childhood playmate of children in many countries.

  After all, Zhu Youxing started playing with pirated copies when he was a child, so he is relatively tolerant in this regard. Of course, it is limited to outdated old machines. If any new machine is really cracked, he will directly call Go to the lawyers' group, no matter how much you spend, you will be sued until bankruptcy.

  Even in business practice this is also unwise, because it would cost too much money and it would not be worth it at all.

  Perhaps it is also because of Zhu Yuxing's stubborn behavior, many hackers who engage in petty tricks do not dare to go too far.

  When FC's sales exceeded 100 million, it was inevitable to celebrate.

  Breaking one million, breaking 10 million, breaking 100 million, these are very commemorative figures, and it is also a good low-cost publicity opportunity, proving the strong strength of Youxing Electronic Entertainment.

  But the current players' attention is still more focused on the GS1.

  After several months of sales, there are more than a hundred games on the GS1.

  Almost every month, games of different sizes are logged on this console.

  And every month at least two or three games with high-quality 3D graphics are released.

  Some are from first parties and some are from third parties.

  Players have experienced the charm of new era video games through GS1, and now they are addicted to it.

  The more they play the GS1 console, the more they hate consoles from other game companies.

  Compared with the GS1, other game consoles are really not a little bit worse.

  It is also possible to take a look at the game console of Suri Electronics.

  Oh by the way, there have been some games with good graphics on PC recently.

  However, most people still use computers as work supplies, so there is no official statistical agency to count the sales of PC games.

  As the FF7 demo version bundled with GS1, many players have played it no less than ten times.

  After all, the total trial process is only two or three hours.

  The more they play, the more they indulge in this beautiful worldview.

  I would die without playing Final Fantasy 7.

  This is a frequent thread on the community forums lately, showing players' desire for Final Fantasy 7.

  Under such a desire, Yuxing Electronic Entertainment finally announced the latest Final Fantasy 7 development progress in a small face-to-face meeting.

  Development is in an advanced stage, and if there is time, it should be officially released around March-April at the beginning of the new millennium.

  This year's best game doesn't have to compete with Mario 64.

  It's always meaningless to beat one's own family.

  With a relatively accurate release time, players are naturally very happy.

  They can finally live a new millennium with peace of mind.

  The current game development process has also come to the end of Final Fantasy 7, and the rest is the production of animated CG.

  There is really no way to compress the production cycle of animation CG. This is completely manual work. It requires a huge amount of calculation to calculate CG animation. If you spend too much money, it will not have a high effect, so you can only wait patiently.

  As the last Christmas of the new millennium, Yuxing Electronic Entertainment also carried out a special promotion. All games were cut by 10% across the board, and the price of game consoles was cut by 20%.

  This immediately stimulated the enthusiasm of players to consume.

  Usually, it is difficult to reduce the price of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment's games, unless the game meets the outdated standard set by Yuxing Electronic Entertainment, which is about a two-year time limit.

  Video games released for more than two years will be listed as outdated games, and then participate in special price reduction activities, the intention is to increase the audience of players through price reductions, so as to attract new games in the future.

  It is quite rare to be able to reduce the price of a game during the hot period. Players have carried out a short-term frenzy, which made the turnover of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment soared a year ago, which will be used for the next game development. Paved the way.

  "Thank you for your hard work this year, because the new millennium is coming, so I think we will have a holiday from now on. Please go back and have an unforgettable New Year. By next year, we will be the masters of the new millennium." The

  day before Christmas, Take Yusei personally announced the official start of the holiday.

  Zhuyouxing directly gave the employees a two-week long vacation to thank them for their hard work over the years.

  The employees were naturally excited to celebrate.

  To be honest, although there is not much overtime during this period, and they work with enthusiasm, it is always different to have a long vacation.

  They thanked Zhu Yuxing, shouted Long Live Zhu Yuxing, and went back to their respective homes.

  Today, each of these Yuxing Electronic Entertainment employees earns a lot of money, and even in the market environment of Japan's economic downturn, they are the most nourishing group of people.

  Their new year is naturally the happiest.

  And all this is thanks to Zhu Yuxing.
