I became the richest man in the world after losing my life in a vegetative state

Chapter 377 Empire Games announced the price of the first-generation handheld game console, shocking the world!

The press conference of Empire Games Company is still in progress, and it is already very successful. The reporters in front of them, both men and women, are attracted by the game.

About half an hour.

Tomohiro Nisikado asked reporters to go back first.

For these reporters at this moment, what they are most interested in is the price of these game consoles.

Last year, Imperial Games launched two game consoles. Those arcade machines cost US$6,500 each. They were very expensive and luxurious game consoles that not many consumers could afford.

After one year, global sales are only a few hundred thousand units.

However, now that they have just tried the handheld console, they found that the handheld console is very small and should be much cheaper in price. At least, with their reporter's income, they can afford a handheld game console.

"Journalists, you must be very interested in the price of the handheld console in front of you!" Tomohiro Nisikado looked at the reporters present and asked.

Yes, at this point, they were really curious.

Those arcade machines were too expensive, and with their income, they might only be able to afford one a year.

However, this handheld game console is different now.

In terms of hardware, it should be much cheaper than arcade game consoles.

"Everyone calm down first."

Tomohiro Nisikado asked the reporters present to be quiet first.

"I'm going to give each of you journalist friends a guess on the price of our first-generation handheld console."

A male reporter picked up the microphone and said, "Mr. Tomohiro Nisikado, I think it costs $1,000 for one."

1,000?

It is indeed much cheaper than an arcade machine that costs US$6,500.

Tomohiro Nisikado still shook his head.

"I think it was $800."

. . .

Tomohiro Nisikado smiled and shook his head.

Finally, Tomohiro Nisikado said: "I now officially announce the price of this handheld game console on behalf of Imperial Group and Imperial Games."

“This is a price that most consumers around the world can afford.”

At a price that most consumers can afford?

The reporters looked surprised.

"Not bad, $30 each."

$30?

Many reporters present thought they heard wrongly.

Compared to an arcade machine that costs $6,500, this is a big difference.

A full 216 times difference.

What is this concept?

At this time, 30 US dollars, based on the exchange rate between Japanese yen and US dollars, is 6,000 yen.

Calculated according to the current Hong Kong dollar, at this time, the Hong Kong dollar has depreciated against the US dollar and has fluctuated up and down. However, it is still around 5.65 Hong Kong dollars per US dollar, which is about 170 Hong Kong dollars.

This price, in Japan and even in Xiangjiang, is indeed almost affordable for most consumers with ordinary incomes.

However, for China, a game console worth 170 Hong Kong dollars is still relatively expensive.

At this time, the reporters were really shocked.

Compared with the original arcade game console that cost US$6,500, which is equivalent to HK$30,000 to 40,000, it is really a far cry from it.

"I hope that Empire Games can bring happiness to players around the world and make game consoles affordable to more consumers around the world."

Tomohiro Nisikado looked at the reporters present and said.

This time, the successful launch of Empire Games' new product launch not only shocked the reporters present, but also soon shocked game companies and gamers around the world.

When Tomohiro Nisikado announced the end of the press conference, he gave the fifty handheld game consoles as a benefit for the press conference, so that the reporters present could participate in the lottery.

In other words, everyone has one chance to win the lottery.

In the end, among the hundreds of reporters, fifty were lucky enough to receive a handheld game console given to each of them by Empire Games.

As for those who were unlucky and didn't win, they were also very excited.

With their income, they can buy a few units a month.

When these reporters hurriedly left the Imperial Group conference room, they immediately went back to work on their reports.

. . .

"Boss, the press conference for the launch of the game console is over."

Tomohiro Nisikado came to report to Yang Ming.

Yang Ming nodded.

Like these, he will not come forward to attend press conferences in the future, and the people below will directly handle them. For him, it doesn't matter whether he appears at a game product press conference or not.

"According to my prediction, this time the handheld console should be popular all over the world, and sales will be full."

Historically, Nintendo's ordinary handheld consoles launched in 1980 have sold tens of millions of units.

In Yang Ming's view, it is possible that sales this time will exceed 100 million units.

Especially in Japan, China, and even Europe, they are very big markets.

In fact, for Yang Ming, this handheld machine is indeed a small profit but quick turnover.

If one unit earns 10 US dollars, 100 million units is equivalent to 1 billion US dollars.

However, it is of great significance to him. Not only does he want to monopolize global games, he also wants to completely defeat game console companies such as Nintendo and Sony in terms of game hardware, so that they have no chance to rise.

After Tomohiro Nisikado went back to work first.

Yang Ming was still in the office of the chairman of the Imperial Group, looking at the tall buildings in the distance.

Akihabara in the East.

London's financial district buildings.

Xu Qingsheng and Barlow held press conferences at the company respectively about the release of Empire Games' first-generation handheld game, as well as its new games "Xiangjiang Cube", "Little Bee", "Snake" and so on.

As soon as this press conference came out, it immediately shocked the gaming industry in Japan and even Europe, especially the reporters. They knew that few consumers could afford the arcade machines launched by the Imperial Group last year.

This time, the first-generation handheld console released by the Imperial Group was affordable to many ordinary people.

After all, whether it is 30 US dollars or 6,000 yen per unit, it is affordable for most local consumers.

Reporters and major newspapers and magazines from all over the world rushed to report it.

Among them, players from Xiangjiang, Japan, Europe and the United States are all excited.

Whether it's the handheld versions of "Hong Kong Cube" or "Space Invaders" or "Little Bee", "Snake" and "Pac-Man", those players love them so much.

In the past, they really couldn't afford a game console that cost 6,500 US dollars.

Nowadays, they can buy several handheld game consoles for 30 US dollars each, which means they can buy all the games they like.

Moreover, compared to playing in an arcade, this handheld game console is so convenient. It can be said that you can play it anytime and anywhere, and you can even put it in your pocket.

This is even more shocking to the gaming industry around the world.

They used to follow the trend and enter the arcade market on a large scale to drink soup. Now that Empire Games suddenly released the first-generation handheld console, they were a little unable to react.

The most critical thing is that the listing price is too low. In this case, if other companies follow suit, they will be defeated by Empire Games without any advantage at all.
