Chapter 89 We don't mind the abandoned version

The news that Mars Entertainment's first palm game console will be released in New York will be overwhelmingly promoted in various media half a month in advance.

The three major TV networks, the New York Times, the Washington Post, the Chicago Tribune and other large media covering the United States have received huge advertising fees from popular publishing. As the saying goes, humans are dead, so these capitalist newspapers will not care about the fact that they have questioned Mars Entertainment before. As long as Mars Entertainment spends a lot of money, they don’t mind making a very stingy flattery to them.

In just a short period of time, Mars Entertainment almost became a leading company in the American electronic game industry. Of course, this is also true, because Mars Entertainment is indeed the most famous and most profitable company in the American electronic game industry.

The American Youth Entrepreneur of the Year, nominated by the American Academy Entrepreneur Association and Business Weekly, is also getting louder and louder, because Jester is too outstanding among candidates.

The number of electronic pets to be released this time has increased to six compared to the three when they were released in Japan a month ago. The latest three are also the first time they meet players and have not been released to the public before.

Of course, the three flagship stores that have been planned and issued by popular brands will also be sold at the same time after the launch ceremony in New York.

According to ABC, Fengxing has prepared a total of one million units this time. Moreover, the production capacity of OEM companies in Japan is fully opened, and they can produce nearly one million units in a month, which is definitely enough to supply. It will never happen that after the sales bursts in Japan, it will be sold out in just half a day.

At 8 o'clock in the morning, the second trial of Mars Entertainment was about to open thirty minutes, and it was already crowded near the Rockefeller Center in Manhattan.

Due to the large number of people, Fengxingfu had to ask NYPD to help maintain public order.

Of course, it costs money to dispatch American police.

This time it was not all for rent, but rather the property that Jester directly asked Carly to spend money to buy here. When the trial session ended, it will be officially opened as the fourth flagship store released by Fengxing.

After all, New York is the core of the entire United States, and Jester also plans to place his home machine launch ceremony here.

This time, there were more people coming to New York to participate in the trial party than in Chicago last time. Even some large media that disdained to come no longer looked down on electronic games with airs. After all, if you were not blind, you could see Mars Entertainment today, especially in the eyes of young people who like electronic games, it has become a phenomenon in the United States.

Even after seeing the shocking success of Mars Entertainment, Atari's Tramel broke his promise and was ready to let Atari quietly return to the electronic game industry. For example, they will re-release the already abandoned VCS7200 at the end of the year. Just recently, Atari announced that this new high-performance console will be backward compatible with all VCS2600 games while having new games.

Jester didn't take it much seriously. Atari's energy is no longer all on the game, and many of their elites in game development have been dug up by themselves. As for Atari now, he has not taken it seriously at all.

After chatting for a while, Jack Stella heard from the other party's pronunciation of curling tongue that the other party had just come from Japan.

As soon as he arrived in New York, he went straight to this place, and even had no time to book a hotel, so he came here to queue. Unexpectedly, when he came, he saw hundreds of people queuing up.

This Japanese is the owner of an electronics store in Akihabara in Japan. The last time he cooperated with the Mars Entertainment Japanese branch to sell the Japanese version of the Pokemon electronic pet machine, he made a lot of money. This time the new model was not set in Japan, but was chosen in the United States.

As soon as the news came back to Japan, it caused some commotion. Many players who had purchased the three previous electronic pet machines protested, but more were orders floating like snowflakes.

Countless enthusiastic players came to Akihabara and asked them whether they could buy the new electronic pet machine that was launched in the United States in advance. Even if the price was doubled, the only question was whether they could buy it.

At the beginning, the boss Akihabara like him was still not very concerned, but after a few days, he found that the situation was a little wrong. Then, after the bosses who opened a store in Akihabara combined, they found that in just a few days, the number of new pet machines that had been ordered from them was more than 100,000.

This is an extremely amazing number.

So after a conclusion, these people decided to come to the United States to purchase goods in person. This time, not only him, but there are many owners like him who open a store in Akihabara. They also hired a large number of local Americans to serve as water troops for purchases. After the sale, they had to purchase them among the players they purchased. The price of an electronic pet machine was 99 US dollars, and they would increase the price to purchase 30%, but after being shipped back to Japan, they could sell it for more than 200 US dollars.

If it was the golden version, the boss told Jack Stella that someone had offered him a price of $100,000.

Moreover, there is still a shortage of supply, because they have consulted Mars Entertainment and popular distribution companies before. This time, the sales time of the Japanese version is finally put. The estimated time is the end of the year. It will be arranged for Japan's release activities after the European version is released. For those enthusiastic Japanese players, this period of time must not be waiting.

Moreover, Japan is indeed not short of money now. The Japanese are clamoring to buy the whole world.

After hearing the Japanese explanation, Jack Stella also secretly stumbled. He didn't expect that there was such a big business opportunity in this small electronic pet machine.

The Pokemon Electronic Pet Machine is released at twelve o'clock, and it was a trial before.

When it was Jack Strara's turn to get the pass license plate and enter the trial venue, it was already more than ten o'clock. This time, Fengxing release had the first experience and doubled the number of trial machines. However, when Jack Strara entered the venue, she still couldn't find a few free machines.

This time, the most popular among players is no longer "Snowman Brothers", which made a big hit during the last trial, but Mars Entertainment has just released two levels of content, a new game called "Avengers".

Before coming, Jack Stella, a person who never plays games, asked a colleague of his own to borrow a copy of GAME magazine to search. There was a lot of information about Mars Entertainment, including the review of the first two levels of this new game.

The earliest news about the first two levels of this game being released at this trial meeting was that it appeared in the magazine "GAME".

In this article, the editor who wrote this article praised the Avengers almost for their best efforts, claiming that this is a game that surpasses all the games that have appeared in the past, and is perfect in every aspect, which shocks him just like the advertising slogan on the arcade frame of Mars Entertainment, "This game comes from Mars". He also pointed out that he still played the abandoned version, and the official version is definitely much better than this abandoned version.

At the end of the article, the editor was still mocking the person who would inevitably question whether he was bragging after reading this article: "If you don't believe it, please wait for the New York trial. I have received the exact news from the senior management of Mars Entertainment. At this trial, they will launch the two-level arcade machine of this game for players to try."

Originally, some people said that the editor was swearing and didn't know how much the benefit fee for Mars Entertainment was charged, but now what Jack Stella saw in the trial hall seems to be nothing.

Stopped a player who had just finished the first two levels of "Avengers", Jack Stella first stated that he was a reporter at Newsweek, and then asked the player: "The Avengers game is really as good as what GAME magazine said before?"

The player first glanced at Jack Stella with an incredible look, as if wondering why the man who claimed to be a reporter for Newsweek asked a stupid question.

Then, the player began to answer.

"I can't believe what I've experienced in the past two months!" His tone was very excited and his speaking speed was very fast, like a machine gun. In this noisy environment, Jack Stella almost needed to concentrate on hearing clearly.

"More than two months ago, when I first played "American Cubes", I thought it was the most fun game I've ever played. The Atari games I played before were simply trash. Only Nintendo's Donkey Kong might be compared with it, but when I played "Snowman Brothers" a month ago, I suddenly felt that Donkey Kong was just like this. It was not that it was not qualified to be compared with "Snowman Brothers". "Donkey Kong" was not bad, but it was out of date. After all, it has been many years. At that time, I thought "Snowman Brothers" would be like "Donkey Kong", which has been popular for many years and has always had the title of the best game in the world."

"But..." As he said, the player's tone became incredible again, and he said in a tone of exclamation that Jack Stella had never heard of.

"Avengers is so TM... Sorry, I really can't find a definite adjective to describe this game. I think it's an insult to describe it as excellent, because it completely destroys my understanding of the game and rebuilds my three views. This shouldn't be something that humans can do. It's so great. I'm sorry I insulted this game again, but I really can't help it. And I heard that this is just an abandoned version? Is it better than this abandoned version?

At the end of this player, in Jack Stella's ears, it seemed that the other party was not describing a game at all, but describing some black technology from aliens.

"...I tell you, I heard that you are a reporter from Newsweek, so I will ask you to do a favor. Please add my words to this when reporting on this game, so that those people at Mars Entertainment know that this is what we players mean, 'Don't be with mother-in-law and mother! Come on sale! Even if it is an abandoned version, we don't mind!"
