E3 was held for a total of 3 days, and during these three days, major game companies around the world reaped a lot of benefits.

Among them, Nintendo doesn't know if it was stimulated by Daqian, they originally only planned to release eight games, and in one breath they will still be in pre-development, and it may take a year or two to launch games, and they have also taken it out, making up a total of 16 games, second only to EA in the number of games released.

Of these 18 games, 4 are already in pre-sale, and then Nintendo launched the pre-sale of the game on the spot, and the result is that the on-site pre-sale results of 6 games are as high as 20,000 copies.

You know, this is just the result of pre-sale at the E3 site, according to Nintendo's experience, the total sales of these 6 games in the future will be 100 times that of the scene, and it is appropriate to exceed 2 million copies, there is no problem.

This made Yamauchi's face finally look a little good, and on the other hand, EA's boss was also very happy, because the total amount of live pre-sales and sales of their games exceeded 30,000, which was higher than Nintendo.

However, Yamauchi Pu is quite disdainful of this, because EA's results are a full 30 games combined, and 30 games are only 30,000 pre-sales, which is simply a shame.

As for Sony, they have zero game sales.

No way, Sony doesn't have any first-party games at all, but on the other hand, the game's PS game consoles have sold more than 600 units on the spot, and there are about 100,000 orders, and the sales of PS game consoles are enough to make Sony blossom.

Well, the reason why there is such a terrible data of 100,000 units is because these 100,000 units are ordered by dealers all over the world, in fact, E3 is not so much for players, but for dealers around the world.

These dealers by observing the various games and console equipment on the E3, and finally decide the number of orders, even if it is a large thousand, it is only in Huaxia, Fuso and Mi country have their own distribution network, and other regions around the world need to rely on dealers around the world to sell, so the number of dealer orders is the key to E3.

As for the number of orders that Nintendo and EA have given to dealers around the world, it's incredible.

Nintendo's 18 games received a total of 2 million pre-orders, while EA's 30 games received a total of 800,000 pre-orders.

From here, it can also be seen how huge the gap between the console market and the PC market is at this time.

At this time, Sony was very happy, especially when he learned through the inside line that Nintendo's GB+SFC game console, together with the scene did not sell 500 units, and the dealer booked no more than 20,000 units, he smiled even more happily, the overall situation has been, the future console market is Sony's world.

Because these three parties attach great importance to each other and have arranged commercial spies in their respective companies, all these data quickly fell into the hands of the other party's boss.

One of the happiest is Sony.,How the game sells.,It has nothing to do with him Sony.。

It doesn't matter if it's EA, the host is fighting, and it has nothing to do with him.

The most uncomfortable is Nintendo, Sony and PC are pressing step by step, the console market is being frantically compressed, and Nintendo is afraid that it will enter a bitter battle in the future.

The three major game companies each have their own minds, pondering each other's data, and then at some time their heads light up at the same time. What happened to Daqian's data?

Because none of the three major companies arranged spies in Daqian in advance, and it was impossible for spies in a short period of time to blend into the company's top management, the three major companies could only stare helplessly, and then rely on speculation to guess what Daqian's final data was.

"Chairman, this is all the statistics of this E3!" The secretary sent the data report to Boss Jia with a smile on his face, judging from this smile, Daqian's data should not be too bad this time.

In fact, according to the statistics above, more than 50,000 visitors came to visit the first E3 in three days, which is higher than the total number of visitors to the World Consumer Electronics Show in the last year.

[PS: Here, the author continues to admit the mistake, the author said that there were 40,000 people in line on the first day, which is wrong, thinking that the author later stumbled upon the record of the number of visitors to E3 is actually 70,000...... So here's a correction, the queue on the first morning was 10,000 people. 】

Among them, according to statistics, there are basically 50,000 visitors to Daqian's booth, which means that all visitors have visited Daqian's exhibition area.

Of course, the above data is just an estimate, but the following data is genuine, that is, the total number of viewers who have interacted with Daqian in all aspects exceeds 10,000.

That is to say, the audience who has taken photos with Daqian's dolls, played Daqian's interactive games, or tried Daqian's games has exceeded 10,000 people, which is a very amazing data.

The games and equipment that Daqian opened for pre-sale on the spot are "Pokemon Ruby Emerald", "Red Alert", "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", "Titanic", and "Night of Destiny" and finally "Diablo"

On the hardware side, there are GTX0000

As a result, the first pre-sale is undoubtedly "Diablo".

As a game that has changed the entire world in history and laid the foundation for almost 80% of future online games, Diablo has been destined for a glorious fate from the moment he was born.

Not to mention that in this life, there are still a lot of funds to improve the design of Diablo, and the research and development work of Diablo in the previous life consumed a total of 1.5 million US dollars, and the research and development personnel combined, there are only 30 people in total.

And this time, Daqian directly gave 5 million US dollars to Blizzard Studios, and the total R&D personnel of "Diablo" together exceeded 150 people, which led to the quality of "Diablo" far exceeding that of the previous life, not to mention that Boss Jia also spent one million dollars to make a special effects promotional video to promote him.

If the previous publicity on stage was just an advertisement, when 200 computers with GTX0000 installed on the scene provided Diablo with a demo, all players fell into it.

According to the rules, a player can try to play on a computer for a maximum of 10 minutes, which is relatively short for a demo hall with 200 computers.

As a result, there were almost more than 20 players in line behind each computer, which meant that the last player had to wait more than three hours to play Diablo.

That's not all, when a player's 10-minute trial time has arrived, after the computer automatically locks the screen, more than 50% of the players actually do not leave, but quickly jump to the end of the line to continue to line up, his eyes are all crazy, he has been completely conquered by such a magical real-time combat game.

So when Diablo opened its pre-sale, it was unbelievable.

"80,000 copies! There are 80,000 pre-orders! How is this possible! When he saw this number, Boss Jia himself couldn't help but exclaim, you must know that the entire E3 together is only more than 50,000 players, and the pre-sale actually reached 80,000 copies, which actually exceeded the total number of players who came to visit, no matter how you look at this number, this number is fake.

"We didn't believe it at first, but based on our statistics, the number is real!" The secretary explained, "We have carefully analyzed the data, and on the first day, the total pre-sale volume was 5,000 copies, basically one to three copies ordered by one player, which is basically in line with the law. ”

"But from day 2, there was a lot of anomalous data, and some players started to order games with more than three digits, and the most of them, 5,000 copies of Diablo alone!"

"5,000 copies, it's not a joke, it's a full $150,000 upfront payment!" Boss Jia said with some surprise.

Daqian's pre-sale policy is a little different from the pre-sale policy of other companies, and the pre-sale policy of other companies basically only needs to register a name and then pay a few dollars.

However, all the pre-sales of Daqian's games must pay half of the payment, for example, the price of "Diablo" is $59, and the pre-sale requires a deposit of $30.

It is not for nothing that Daqian has set the price so expensive, and players who participate in the pre-sale first can obtain the qualification to purchase the game five days in advance with the pre-sale voucher and a unique pre-sale code.

If you are willing to pay an additional $10 postage, then you can also register the address directly and the official will send the game directly to you.

Well, the postage in the United States at that time was so expensive.

That's not all, all Diablo pre-sales come with a redemption code, which can be exchanged for 1,000 gold coins in the game, which is too much for many players who have played for 10 minutes and swiped less than 1 gold coin.

[PS: The Daqian version of "Diablo" adopts the same economic system as World of Warcraft, 100 copper coins can be exchanged for 1 silver coin, and 100 silver coins can be exchanged for 1 gold coin, so it is very normal to earn less than 1 gold coin in 10 minutes]

At the same time, players in the pre-sale can also have the first to buy, limited to 10,000 copies of the deluxe version of Diablo qualification, according to the promotional materials, the deluxe version of Diablo, with five different redemption codes, as well as ten real-life peripherals, although the total price is as high as $199, but only 10,000 copies are sold worldwide.

"Because we have a lot of additional benefits provided by the pre-sale version of Diablo, it has caused a lot of people to think crookedly, according to our understanding, players who have ordered more than three digits of the pre-sale version have discovered the value of the pre-sale version of Diablo, and they plan to make money by selling the pre-code at a higher price when the game is officially released!" The secretary explained.

"It turns out that there are already scalpers in this era!" Boss Jia couldn't help but sigh.

"Chairman, do we need to introduce some means and methods to deal with these ...... What about scalpers? Seeing that Boss Jia's attitude towards scalpers was a little unhappy, the secretary immediately asked wittily.

"No, in fact, scalpers are not a bad thing for us businessmen!" Boss Jia shook his head, the so-called ass determines the position, when Boss Jia became the boss, he found that the scalper was actually quite good!
