Chapter 458 Street Fighter 1 is released! Shocking the global gaming community! !
In November, the weather in the north was already very cold, and even snow began to fall in many places.
In November, the weather in Hong Kong was still very warm, with daytime temperatures even reaching around 25 degrees Celsius.
Early in the morning, Yang Ming swam a few laps in the swimming pool, and after having breakfast with his parents, he was now going to the Empire Group Building by car.
Yang Ming came to the chairman's office in the Empire Group Building.
There were many reporters in the conference room.
Today is the second half of the year when Empire Games will release its highlight game of the year.
Street Fighter 1!
Although some news had been spread some time ago, many players from all over the world still liked it very much.
"Boss, the reporters are here."
Nishikado Tomohiro came in and said.
"You go and host this new product launch press conference."
Yang Ming will never appear again at this kind of game and new product launch conference.
Nishikado Tomohiro came to the conference room.
At this time, in addition to him, there were also Akio Nakanishi, marketing director of Empire Games, Masato Matsushita, product director, and Akiyoshi Fujiwara, sales director.
At first glance, they are all Japanese.
However, these people have lived in Hong Kong for a long time, and their dress and appearance are somewhat different from those of the Japanese in Japan.
In the first half of the year, in addition to launching games such as "Hong Kong Cube", "Snake", and "Bee", Empire Games also mainly recommended the first generation of handheld game consoles.
Because the price of the first generation of handheld game consoles of Empire Games is not high.
The global unified sales price is 30 US dollars.
This has exploded in global sales.
In a year, sales exceeded 100 million units, and sales in China alone exceeded 10 million units. This is the sales of AiKa Electronics, a joint venture between Rong Zhijian and Yang Ming.
Sales in Japan, the United States, and Europe are all very high.
In addition, with the release of the second generation of handheld game consoles next year, Empire Games will continue to rise in handheld game consoles.
The second half of the year is the most important flagship game of this year.
It is Street Fighter.
It is also "Street Fighter 1".
Historically, "Street Fighter 1" is an arcade game launched by the Japanese CAPCOM company in 1987, which can be called the ancestor of fighting games.
In the game, players control Long or Ken (the main one is Long, the deputy one is Ken) to challenge fighting masters from Japan, M, Z, Y, and Siam.
The two protagonists of the game, Long and Ken, are both top karate masters. They participated in the World Martial Arts Competition together. After competing with nine masters from all over the world, Rei and Ji from Japan, Joe and Mike from M, Li and Yuan from Z, Birdie and Eagle from Y, and Atun from Siam, the final boss, Thai boxing champion Sagat, appeared.
Long knocked down Thai boxing champion Sagat, who has the title of fighting emperor, with the strongest secret of karate-Rising Dragon Fist, and left a long scar on his chest. Long, who won the victory, embarked on the road to challenge stronger people.
Since the beginning of the year, when Nishikaku Tomohiro saw this game, he knew that once this game was launched, it would be popular all over the world, especially suitable for arcade promotion.
Although it is also very good to promote it as a handheld game now.
The development of this game is much more difficult than "Hong Kong Cube", after all, it involves various fighting moves.
For this reason, Nishikado Tomohiro and the game developers specially studied the video tapes of global fighting competitions, explored the fighting routines, and then applied them to the Street Fighter game.
It takes a lot of time in this regard.
However, Empire Game Company has sufficient funds and R&D funds, and there are more and more game research talents. With the addition of Akio Nakanishi and Masato Matsushita, Nishikado Tomohiro's work is also easier.
This game will be released in the second half of the year.
Reporters from outside have received this news in advance and have come to the Empire Group conference room to attend this meeting.
In the conference room.
There are also five large arcade machines and twenty handheld game consoles.
However, although the press conference has not yet started, they have seen the relevant posters of "Street Fighter 1".
The posters have images and introductions of each main character.
Among them, including Lie, Ji, Qiao, Mike, Li, Yuan, etc.
These game poster characters have certain prototypes.
For example, Li comes from the character of Bruce Lee.
There are also boxing styles from Siamese Muay Thai and so on.
These posters appeared in the conference room, and even though the press conference had not started yet, they had already aroused the interest of those reporters.
When Nishikaku Tomohiro came to the conference room.
"Dear journalists, for the second half of the year, the most important game of Empire Games, Street Fighter 1, will be officially launched. Before that, I will solemnly introduce the gameplay of this game to you."
This game can be played by one person, that is, human and machine.
It can also be played by two people, that is, people PK with people.
The characters in it can be selected at will, but they also have to challenge and upgrade constantly.
Nishikaku Tomohiro solemnly introduced this game.
Show the gameplay of this game in front of reporters in person.
Those female reporters may not have anything, but the male reporters are almost all stimulated. Isn't this the game they want most?
In reality, it is illegal for ordinary people to fight with ordinary people. It is impossible to fight easily. If you want to play in the ring, you are not a professional player and can only play black boxing, which is not what they want.
However, it is different now. You can play through the moves in the game.
Nishikado Tomohiro personally demonstrated it to everyone. It was very smooth and had already attracted the attention of many reporters.
Now, there are five arcade machines on it.
You can invite ten reporters to PK.
Ten male reporters were drawn. They sat in front of the arcade machines and started playing according to what Nishikado Tomohiro taught them.
In fact, talent is also needed in games.
Those who play well can of course keep winning, and those who play badly will be KOed in a few moves.
. . .
It must be said that this game really shocked the reporters present.
In addition to these arcade machines, there are also handheld game consoles.
This handheld game console is also the first generation of handheld game consoles of Empire Game Company, but now the game software has been changed to "Street Fighter 1".
When those male and female reporters were drawn to play there.
Half an hour later, Nishikado Tomohiro said: "Everyone has tried it. I want to tell you that this game is really good and represents the sincerity of our Empire Games Company to global players."
"Director Nishikado Tomohiro, do you know the price of this game?"
These are what reporters and global consumers are most interested in.
"For this game, after comprehensive consideration of hardware, software, etc., we have determined that the price of this game console is still $6,500 per arcade machine. As for the handheld game console, it is $50 per unit."
Why did the handheld game console increase in price?
It is because the research and development funds for this game are higher.
The reporters around were crazy when they heard the price.
They still couldn't afford the $6,500 arcade game console.
But they could still afford the $50 Street Fighter 1 handheld game console.
