   Chapter 581 A question mark

  580

   Like Carson's addiction to super football games, there are many people on the European continent who have the same feeling.

   In the first week, the sales of Super Football in Europe were actually not particularly high.

   Because most players have been attracted by FIFA which was released first.

  Many players do not have time to experience the next football game in a short period of time, even if they are also looking forward to another new football game.

  Especially this football game needs to buy another game console, and fewer players are willing to buy it at the beginning.

   So Super Soccer has just crossed half a million sales in Europe in its first week.

   In Europe, the number of GS1 game consoles has just reached about 2 million.

   If calculated according to the share of the game, the sales volume exceeding 500,000 accounts for about 25% of the GS1 game consoles in Europe.

   This is already a very successful result for a game, and it is very rare to have such a result in the first week.

   As Suri Electronics opened the market first, it grabbed some sales first.

   The number of users who own Surui electronic home game consoles in Europe is probably more than 6 million, and the results are very good.

   This is also the reason why Hayakawa Ukito is excited.

   That is, after the emergence of FIFA, it began to quickly swept across Europe, so Hayakawa Ueto specially applied for the privilege of FIFA, which is to give more game shares.

   It used to be 70%, but now it can have more than 80% of the sales.

   If it is a purchased digital game, this share can reach 90%, which is very sincere to YOO.

   This is also mutual benefit and win-win for both parties.

  Nagaiyu finally raised her eyebrows.

  Especially when Yuxing Entertainment’s Super Football Tournament was released, although there is no official data source, he can still roughly infer the first-week sales of the Super Football Tournament through some channels.

   Definitely no more than a million in the first week.

  This made him even more excited.

   He couldn't help but start shouting on the social platforms of the Internet, very proud to officially announce that the European market already belongs to YOO, and Youxing Electronic Entertainment can shy away from it.

   In the field of football games, his Nagao rain will be king.

   "President, we can't be optimistic. The game experience of Super Soccer Tournament... is actually better than us."

   Just when Nagao Yu was proudly bombarding Yuxing Electronic Entertainment on social platforms, the head of the development team under Nagao Yu took the initiative to find Nagao Yu worriedly.

   He is a game developer, and he has been fortunate enough to participate in the game development course of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment.

   This also made him one of the first true game producers.

   Later he joined a game studio and became a full-time game developer until YOO acquired their studio, and then the studio boss took the money to leave, and he became the head of the game team.

  His game development experience is not to be said, enough to be his own, and his taste of games is naturally the same.

   When he completed the development of his own FIFA football game, he was actually quite satisfied. This was the first time he developed a game with his own hands, without anyone's help, it was completely developed by himself.

   When there is no comparison, he feels that this is already the benchmark of the football game.

   At that time, he even thought that even Yuxing Electronic Entertainment should not be better than himself.

   However, it wasn't until the release of Yuxing Entertainment's Super Football Tournament that he really realized how ignorant he was.

  As a game developer, he can best understand how big the substantive gap of a game can be.

   Obviously looks similar, but after getting started, it is a day and a place.

   So after playing Yuxing Entertainment's Super Football Tournament for the first time, he finally couldn't help but find Nagao Yu.

   Nagao Yu was very dissatisfied when he heard the words of the person in charge.

   Why did I treat you badly? Are you running over now and putting eye drops on me?

  You are also involved in game development. You are not bragging about your own game now, but you are still bragging about other people's games. What do you think?

   He said: "Now that we have achieved success in sales, the data is the most intuitive, we have achieved success, haven't we?"

  In the first week of sales, they got millions of sales.

   And Youxing Electronic Entertainment is less than one million.

   This is still a conservative estimate. According to the aggregation of various data, his team estimates that it is probably hovering at 500,000 sales.

   This is twice the amount that he sold in the first week of millions.

  If Super Soccer is fun, then why are so many people not playing Super Soccer?

"President, first-week sales are just a judgment of players' stickiness. In fact, it cannot fully judge the quality of a game. Sometimes a game's first-week sales explosion may have a lot to do with vigorous promotion, like Our FIFA football game has taken up a lot of publicity, but this does not prove that our game is really invincible."

   This point of view he said actually originated from a speech given by Zhu Yuxing in a game development class.

   In the previous life, Zhuyouxing experienced countless excellent marketing, and then the sales performance exploded in the first week, but quickly declined rapidly.

  Some games are not good in the first place, but relying on the previous company's word of mouth and publicity effects, the game sales have exploded.

   But what about the real situation?

   The truth is that this game sucks.

   When players buy the game, they will feel cheated for the first time, and players' confidence in the game and its company will quickly drop to the bottom.

   However, the FIFA football game is not so bad. At least this game is relatively complete, but it is not like a game developed in an era compared to the Super Football Tournament.

  The Super Football Tournament is a dimensionality reduction attack.

  “?”

   A question mark slowly appeared in Nagao Yu's heart.

  Why aren't you finished yet?

   He became even more dissatisfied.

   "What kind of absurd reason do you have? Where did you hear it? The game sales data is all proof, and isn't the feedback from our players also very good?"

   The person in charge said patiently: "It is true that the feedback is also very good, but if we have no opponents, we can maintain our confidence like this, but now our opponents are really doing better than us, I think we..."

Nagao Yu waved his hand impatiently and interrupted the person in charge: "Okay, I don't want to listen to this anymore, you are still relatively young in marketing, you will be responsible for game development in the future, and don't do anything other than game development. Mix it up again."

   Now Nagao Yu just wants to continue to make fun of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment.
