Chapter 130: Dragon Quest

That's right, if future generations see it, they will find that this is like a way to dig up treasure!

Rating system, evaluation system, star store promotion......

This set of patterns, which caused countless people to follow one another in later generations, has been moved to the magazine!

Because there is no Internet, although it costs a lot of money every month to do this kind of statistics, this unique form has completely broken the rules of the entire market!

Okay!

Everyone was originally half a catty, but you suddenly came to a thousand catties!

How do you let other people play?

After reading the list of family members who finally received the Rose Gold Limited Edition, Hiroichi Hamamura's hands trembled directly, this is a monster!

A monster that engulfs the market!

The appearance of this setting represents something, no one knows better than him.

This is to set a standard for the industry!

The model customized according to star ratings is bound to cause third parties to chase after it.

Without him, in order to be famous!

As long as you add this review, then you will have a score in the magazine.

Multiple players are used to participate in reviews, and then continue to be evaluated after launch.

This practice is unprecedented.

While this may lead to bad reviews for the game before it is released, it is not a direction for third parties who have never seen a way out?

In the past, when the game was released, as the first party's two major consoles, Nintendo's FC and Sega's MSM, but no matter how powerful the first party is, resources are limited after all, channel promotion, most of them, after all, can only be provided to the core lineup, as for other third parties? can only be used as an affiliate, without strong promotion, for the game producer, it is likely that after paying most of the effort, what you get is nothing.

The first party has the power of life and death, and once it is defined as an unqualified game, it is similar to the death penalty.

And that's not just for the first party, it's also for the dealers!

Players who want to participate can only go to stores that have partnered with them, and the list is also published in magazines, so that players will only look for stores that have partnered with Age of Wonders, regardless of whether they are participating in the closed beta or for the purpose of obtaining limited-edition family members.

The consequence of this is that stores will have to participate in the cooperation with Age of Wonders, and if they don't, players will lose the cartridges of other stores that have an active purchase!

Good means!

Koichi Hamamura silently appreciated.

Use activities to encourage players to go to cooperative merchants, and then use players to force merchants to join the camp of the Age of Wonders, provide feedback on star reviews to the Age of Wonders, and use star reviews to tell players what games are fun, so as to promote players' desire to buy high-scoring games, and third parties should participate in evaluations in order to promote sales.

This is a perfect cycle, and as long as it is achieved, it can directly form a circle.

As long as the Age of Miracles is really in accordance with this practice and strictly implemented, then this ecological chain is even invulnerable!

Closing the magazine, Hamamura Hongichi didn't want to read it anymore, for him, the appearance of this magazine was undoubtedly a blow, and he was a little confused for a while.

FAMICOM communication, which has been built with great difficulty, has been difficult.

Recently, I have analyzed the entry point of the game market, and finally there are some eyebrows, which are already being planned.

If you give him a little time, maybe you can come up with a good idea in a month or two.

But now, it's too late......

Hiroichi Hamamura was lonely and took the magazine Miracle Entertainment to the company.

The only thing we can hope for now is that the magazine does not sell well, the distribution volume is not enough, or no one cares about it, and there is no irretrievable bottom that causes social effects as imagined.

It's just that...... Is this possible?

"How is it impossible! Kaiyanjun, believe me, at all costs, continue to print!" Li Fangcheng said to Tang Ze Kaiyan on the other end of the phone.

"However, there are already a lot of allocations for each branch, and if you continue to invest, you will break a million copies!" Tang Zekaiyan couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

Millions of copies, for game magazines, is a huge hurdle, and so far, almost no one has been able to overcome this hurdle!

"I'll tell you in advance, the first batch of 1 million is a conservative estimate, you're good, cut it in half, only 500,000 copies, 500,000 copies, if you don't hurry up, you won't be able to last a week. Li Fangcheng helplessly persuaded.

"However, even if it is like FAMICOM communication, the sales volume is only about 500,000 copies a month, and people have done a good job, if we ......" Tang Zekaiyan also has his own opinion.

"I know you know the Japanese market better than I do, so let's make a bet with you, in a week's time, if the sales are less than 100,000 copies after this weekend and next Monday, then don't add more, otherwise, you can just watch it. In the end, Li Fangcheng could only come up with such a solution.

In fact, I don't blame Tang Zekaiyan's anxiety.

If it's an ordinary printing production, it's fine, but Li Fangcheng is simply using any material with good quality, plus a lot of manpower, material and financial resources invested to formulate this magazine, once 500,000 copies can be sold, it will only be just recouped, even if that's it, Tang Zekaiyan has to steal fun. , because it is much better than the loss of 1 million copies produced and the backlog of hundreds of thousands of copies in the end!

A magazine can even cost two to three times as much as someone else's, which is simply unimaginable!

If Li Fangcheng's extravagant and wasteful behavior is not curbed, Tang Zekaiyan even thinks that this company will not be ruined.

"Okay, I'll just wait for Monday, and then you will know that the Japanese market really doesn't have that much room for game magazines, even if other countries publish them simultaneously, but after all, it's still an unreachable quantity. Tang Zekaiyan couldn't help but feel a little happy when he heard that Li Fangcheng was finally relieved.

Hanging up the phone, Li Fangcheng looked at the turbulent weather outside the window, and couldn't help muttering: "The sky is going to change, spring has arrived." ”

No one knows how much change and sensation Li Fangcheng will cause when he sacrifices this serial routine.

However, "Dragon Quest 3: The End of the Legend" is about to be released, and this time, it is not only this classic that stirs up the storm!

Maybe others think that the miracle entertainment released by the Miracle Times is just a magazine.

Today, February 10th, is the day when Dragon Quest 3: The End of the Legend is launched.

Throughout January, posters, banners, and giant paintings can be seen everywhere in shopping malls all over the country, and in Akihabara, advertisements for Dragon Quest can be seen everywhere.

Finally on this day, ushered in the day of release!

Wednesday is not a day off, but there are amazing queues in front of game stores all over the country, including Akihabara, and the spectacle is not even worse than Super Mario!

Countless people took leave to queue up to buy the game, and even led to the Japanese government later promulgating the relevant regulations that the canonical Dragon Quest series can only be released on non-working days.

Li Fangcheng even knew that the sales volume on this day was 3.85 million units, making it the highest-selling third-party FC software in Japan.

This prairie fire has begun to ignite, and what we need to do now in the Age of Miracles is not to extinguish this fire, but to make this fire burn more vigorously!

If Hiroichi Hamamura continues to read and reaches the last column, then he will find that there is a real surprise waiting for him in the back!

Akihabara is crowded with people.

The Christmas night celebration seems to have continued to the present.

Countless people are waiting in line.

As time passed, every store that sold game cartridges did not expect that there would be so many players looking forward to it.

"Why haven't you opened the door yet! I've been waiting for more than an hour!"

A boy who had just entered junior high school, standing in the middle of the buying army of game stores at the moment, said impatiently because he had been queuing for a long time.

"I didn't expect so many people this time, we have been waiting for so long, and the store manager has not come. The person who spoke was a friend of the junior high school boy, and when he heard the boy talking, he immediately responded.

"This game is so fun, I definitely want to be the first to come, but I didn't expect you guys to be faster than me. Behind his classmates, there was a boy with a pockmarked face, and he said helplessly at the moment.

"Hehe, big brother, don't you have to go to work?" the boy looked at the pockmarked boy with a grin.

"I'm here on leave, and I'm not like you. The pock-faced boy said with a smile.

"What's the difference, we...... We are also on leave...... Come out ......," the boy said with a bit of a slurrel.

"Yes, yes, you better keep an eye on it, don't wait to miss it. "The pockmarked boys don't poke it either, everyone came over at this age, so a lot of things can be understood by each other.

"We've been watching, and it's the manager who hasn't opened the door, which makes me a little depressed, even though I know the manager doesn't want to," the boy said with a frustrated expression.

Huh, this tone, I don't want people of this age to say!

The pockmarked boy looked at the boy with a surprised look and said such a sentence.

"Very sensible, just wait, I believe it won't be long before the door opens. The pock-faced boy didn't continue to ask, he thought about it, and he hadn't read the magazine he had just bought on the side of the road, so he took it out.

"That's, we can ......" The boy wanted to say a little more, but when he saw that the big brother with a pockmarked face was opening a very delicate magazine, he didn't say any more.

It's just, what kind of magazine is this? It's so beautiful, it's so beautiful, I've never seen a magazine like this before.

"Kamu, have you brought your little member with you, I want to see what your little member looks like now," the boy's classmate asked, turning around.
