Tokyo Video Game Tycoon

  Chapter 122 The Coincidence of Tsukino Aya (67)

   In fact, if it was made normally according to the games of the previous life, Dragon Quest 3 should be the first game in the world where the main character is female.

   The hero Lot of Dragon Quest 3 itself is gender-selectable in previous games.

   However, Zhu Yuxing deleted the option to modify gender after modification.

   In fact, he just wanted to give Metroid the crown of the video game's first female main character again.

   And it's clear that Metroid's own character is more obvious than Dragon Quest, and it's more appropriate for Samus to be the first manipulative female main character in a video game.

   On the day that Metroid was officially released, there were more people queuing up to buy it than expected, perhaps because of the final revision of the game’s star rating by Yinan Games.

  In the first five days of the release, the trial time of the game has also been extended, and this time, players can finally fully experience the fun of Metroid in advance.

   The people who are lining up to buy now are almost all people who are very interested in the game itself.

   This time, in order to avoid the last fight, some major sales locations even hired a few temporary security guards to maintain order.

   The people lining up this time were indeed a lot more honest, and there was no chaos like the last time.

  Customers bought games in an orderly manner, and then those who bought them happily took the game home and started the official game.

  According to the normal rules, it will take at least a day for these people to really play the ending of Metrod.

   At that time, there should be another wave of craze.

   And just tomorrow is the day the first video game show will be broadcast.

   To this end, Zhu Yuxing also revealed Metroid's secret to the TV station staff in advance, so that they can plan the program in advance.

   This made those TV station employees quite depressed.

   This is a spoiler for being passively accepted.

   But there's nothing you can do about it, it's their job.

   At the same time, various promotional materials were also arranged.

   One day after Metroid was officially released, Metroid, who was previously advertised on billboards, subways, and TV stations, also took off her helmet, revealing her real face.

   That is a stern-eyed, valiant blond woman.

   In the video game business section of the Nippon Keizai Shimbun newspaper, the female image of Sams also occupied the entire page.

  The world's first female video game hero, a female hero who can control!

  Independent, powerful and handsome female hero!

   Tian Chong, who was in the newspaper office, looked at the page he edited with satisfaction.

   At the same time, he secretly sighed in his heart.

   The image of this Sams is really beautiful.

   That kind of heroic feeling, coupled with her female identity, fully reflects the strong side of women.

   Although the status of women in Japan is very low, this does not prevent people from yearning for the image of such a strong woman.

what is this? This is proper political correctness.

   Those who saw the ad were also staring.

   Almost every advertisement emphasizes that this is the world's first video game heroine, which has a very special symbolic meaning.

  The strongest bounty hunter in the universe is a woman, which means that women also have their own powerful side, right?

   Before, people who were not interested in Metroid immediately decided to buy it.

   Not to mention whether to play or not, the unique significance of this game alone is worth buying a box.

   This also resulted in more players buying on the second and third day than on the first.

   The publicity effect this time was excellent, and some people even started to praise Zhu Yuxing.

   believes that he is a person who has the courage to make innovations and breakthroughs, and is also a person who has the courage to fight against tradition.

The first episode of    TV TOKYO's video game program was also very programmatic.

   The host plays Metroid in front of the TV with an employee of Yuxing's publicity team.

   Brings the most charismatic side of Metrodode to the audience.

   At the same time, the employee still passed the level at the fastest speed, so that people could see Sams in a bikini.

   Then the publicity team employee explained in front of the camera how the game's ending was triggered.

  It was only now that people finally realized that different clearance durations would affect the ending.

   If you're a skilled enough player, you can actually see a bikini Sams in person.

  Whoops, my LSP soul had to explode, I had to clear everything quickly.

   Even if the pixel-like picture is not really good-looking, that kind of curiosity still makes many non-audience players take the initiative to contact this game.

   And this also allows the charm of Galaxy City games to be carried forward.

   In the face of the new tricks that Youxing has promoted many times, Suri Electronics and other companies seem to have already calmed down.

  It’s not good to be calm, they can’t surpass it anyway, so they can only look up.

   But that doesn't mean they will give up the chase.

   Not long after that, several game companies immediately announced that they would develop a heroine game to fully demonstrate the beauty of strong women.

   In the real society, women cannot truly achieve equal rights, so let’s show it well in the game.

  The upsurge of the heroine Samus lasted for about half a month before the popularity slowly subsided, and the sales data of Metrod in the first week were also counted.

   230,000 sales in the first week.

   At present, it is a high-quality game that belongs to the upstream.

   Now, a game on the red and white consoles that is above the passing line can sell about 100,000 to 150,000 in the first week.

  Boutique games can hover around 150,000 to 200,000.

  The first Tuesday, 130,000 is already the class of high-quality games.

   However, some of this should also be the bonus of the first heroine, which once again attracted many non-audience player groups.

   Zhu Yuxing is quite satisfied with this result.

  Metrod's sales in his previous life were in the millions, and on average, each of them was just over a million.

   And this is probably the potential of Galaxy City games, unless by chance, it may reach three or four million sales, but that requires a certain amount of luck.

   As a participant, Aya Tsukino likes Metroid very much.

   Because she felt that the heroine Samus was very similar to herself.

  Wear thick clothes or armor to wrap themselves tightly, and then take off the heavy clothes and armor when no one is there, so that they can have a chance to relax.

   She even wondered if this could be a character created by President Take Yusei on purpose, and it was made based on her.

  No, probably not. After all, it is impossible for the president to know what he looks like at home, and it is impossible for him to know that he will take off most of his clothes to relax as soon as he gets home.

   should just be a coincidence.

   Well, coincidence.
