After the party, Jester returned to his home in Costa Mesa. I wondered if it was because of the cold wind blowing after drinking, Jester suddenly fell ill.

He had been having a high fever for several days. After his high fever subsided, the Olympics had already started for three days. China finally won the first Olympic gold medal in history. He had made an appointment to watch the opening ceremony with Qin Shuyao, but he failed to make a trip because he was sick. He also asked someone to give the two opening tickets to Qin Shuyao directly.

During this period, Qin Shuyao also visited him once, and Jester was still a little regretful that he missed the historical moment of Xu Haifeng's first gold medal.

However, after he recovered from his illness, he would have to devote himself to more intense work again, and he would not be able to see the Olympics.

First of all, the sample publication of "GAME" was released.

The sample magazine made of full-color coated paper is very exquisite. The cover is a handsome and elegant photo of Mark Seney wearing a pair of glasses, and there are two tanks with Soviet and American flags respectively, and there are a line of large characters underneath that are marked with red.

"The first PC game for Mars Entertainment, City of Fierce War!"

Jester casually flipped through the sample magazine, and it felt pretty good, not inferior to those from later generations.

Putting the sample magazine on one side, Jester is still a little weak now, and his voice is not very loud: "I'm doing well, just print it according to this."

Adrian, who was beside him, nodded and signaled that he knew.

Then Jester continued: "You can make your own decisions about magazine matters in the future. It's not important. You don't need to come to me. I'm asking you to be the editor-in-chief of this magazine, not as an assistant."

"I understand." A look of excitement flashed in Adrian's eyes. Although Jester was rude and seemed to be scolding him, he could hear that Jester was very satisfied with himself after reading the sample magazine he designed and was preparing to formally delegate power to himself.

After all, no one wants to be a puppet.

"The floppy disk of the trial version of "Fighting City" has been copied by 100,000 copies, and we will also print 100,000 copies of the first issue of the magazine?"

Although he is confident in the first issue he has made and is extremely confident in the quality of "City of Fierce War", 100,000 copies is still an out of reach for a magazine that has just been released. You should know that he used to be in the magazine called "Software" and has so far the highest sales of a single issue has not exceeded 80,000.

"hehe."

Jester just smiled, and he waved his hand disregardly: "Don't worry, the price of a PC game is more than 30 US dollars now. Although our game is a trial version, its content and quality are completely superior to other PC games. How much is our first issue? Because we have a trial version, the price is 30% higher, which is only 20 US dollars. But this game is worth the price. I planned to print 200,000 copies directly, but after thinking about it, I gave a conservative 100,000 copies. You must know that players are looking forward to our game called "City of Fierce War"."

"Okay." Since his boss said, Adrian said nothing, nodded and agreed.

In recent days, Jester has reported through various channels that Mars Entertainment is producing a PC game. Several employees of Mars Entertainment who are unwilling to reveal their names also vaguely stated after interviews with the media that this game does exist, and it was designed by their boss Jester himself.

Moreover, Mars Entertainment did not deny the news.

As soon as the news was broadcast, it immediately excited fans of Mars Entertainment and Jester Lee.

They were finally able to play Mars Entertainment at home!

You should know what kind of crazy phenomena the three new Mars Entertainment games just now have caused in the whole of the United States.

Recently, the first batch of "Gem Maze", "Bubble Dragon" and "Zuma" shipped from Sega were assembled and shipped first. Many players who had only heard about the trial party and the media reported that these new games of Mars Entertainment were amazing, but they were not allowed to try them themselves. The players immediately flocked to the arcade hall that had just been spotted.

Because the players are too enthusiastic, some arcade shop owners even directly raised the price of these three games to a sky-high price of five US dollars per game coin, but this could not stop the enthusiasm of players.

There are at least a long queue of more than twenty people gathered in front of each Mars entertainment game arcade.

Some arcade shop owners earned all their investments back in just one day.

Then, this once again ignited the enthusiasm of the arcade shop owners who were still waiting and watching. They quickly placed orders for Fengxing Issuance, and even added a thousand dollars to each one based on the original price. They only had one condition to get the spot stock as quickly as possible.

In just a few days, "Gem Maze", "Bubble Dragon" and "Zuma" also received orders of 15,000 units again.

Especially with the release of these three games of Mars Entertainment, the sales of "American Cube" have almost stagnated. So far, from the release in June to nearly two months, "American Cube" has sold a total of 23,000 units. At the price of 6,000 US dollars each, it has a total sales of nearly 140 million US dollars. According to Jester's estimate, the saturation volume of "American Cube" is almost the same. Unless you are willing to reduce the price significantly, it is unlikely that it can be shipped significantly.

After all, after the three latest games of players are officially released, there has been a significant increase in the number of games they can choose from.

However, in the contract signed by Jester and Schwell Group, he promised not to sell it before Christmas, and Jester didn't care. After all, even if he significantly reduced the price of "American Cubes" arcades, sales will temporarily blow up, but not too much.

Moreover, as Jester's Mars Entertainment re-energizes the arcade market, many other game companies that were not dead in the previous Atari impact have also targeted the big arcade cake and have been put in.

However, it may be that their game quality is not high and playable. When players were a little annoyed about "American Cubes", they were still interested in these games that were only considered ordinary. However, when these three new games of Mars Entertainment were released, they immediately swept away. The arcade games produced by other manufacturers were immediately swept into the trash can by players.

Because Jester's price comparison with "American Cubes" has dropped a lot, sales in addition to the initial popularity, the sales volume was extremely stable. This time, after the official shipment, it once again caused a trend of eliminating games, and also made sales soar again.

Although Fengxing Company has not yet conducted accurate sales statistics, so far, at least 35,000 of these three games have been sold.

As for "Snowman Brothers", because there was no formal production, it only started with the news of the trial party, and in addition to receiving an advance payment of nearly 20,000 units, subsequent sales basically stagnated.

However, this time, the arcade hall frenzy re-ignited by these three elimination games unexpectedly made the arcade hall bosses look at the latest Mars Entertainment, which has not been officially sold, and is only available for pre-sale "Snowman Brothers".

After all, none of the four games released by Mars Entertainment have disappointed any of the players who support them. So some arcade owners who were hesitant because the price of "Snowman Brothers" is too expensive and did not pre-order the first time the trial ended, immediately made their bet. Therefore, with the hot sales of "Gem Maze", "Zuma" and "Bubble Dragon", "Snowman Brothers" actually began to have a blowout sales growth, and the number of growth is much higher than the other three elimination games that have triggered the arcade frenzy of players.

After these three games only sold 5,000 units again for each game, the total sales of "Snowman Brothers" approached the 30,000 units!

This is a result that everyone is attracted by the side. When a statistical agency estimates the current possible sales of Mars Entertainment, the whole of the United States was shocked.

A full five hundred million dollars!

Then almost everyone questioned before, saying that electronic games are dead and investing in electronic games is a media and experts who have no future investment behavior. How do you explain the miracle created by Mars Entertainment?

Then, almost all the media that said before that video games are dead and Mars Entertainment will continue to sink deeper and deeper into it, and it will inevitably be difficult to escape from the mud and other news. However, some investors still firmly believe in their views, because in the home game console market, Atari's game consoles are still at a freezing point. In any shopping mall in the United States, as long as things related to Atari can't be sold.

In less than two months or three months, Mars Entertainment only produced five games, of which only four were released. The fifth one, which is said to be the largest investment and production, has not even started to officially produce substrates, and even the orders for the other three games have been scheduled for 85 years.

Even so, the arcade hall boss, who was stimulated by the crazy players, kept placing orders for Mars Entertainment almost without considering it. They didn't care about the price or speed.

Even some arcade owners who purchased these three games of Mars Entertainment in advance did not need to take the goods away. They just needed to hold the bill of lading and could directly sell them to countless people waiting to get the goods at double prices.

This is simply huge profit.

Some media have even created a special noun for the crazy actions of players caused by the release of Mars Entertainment's two gameplays.

It is called the Mars phenomenon.

As Mars Entertainment relied on the quality of the game and the trust of players this time, it finally made the originally dead American video game market no longer just a wave jumping up.

It creates ripples after ripples.

Atari officially announced that their home phone VCS7200 will be officially launched at the end of the year and will be compatible with all VCS2600 games.

This also caused an uproar in the industry.

After all, countless people still remember that after the success of "American Cubes", Tramel used that disdainful expression to express the arrogant appearance of the three NEVERs.

"Ha ha……"

Jester laughed and threw the newspaper that Atari returned to the home computer industry on the table. Seeing the news that Tramel licked the words he said again, Jester was originally depressed and felt much better because he was sick and did not regard it as the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games and Xu Haifeng's first gold medal.
Chapter completed!
