Chapter 19 GBA

"Mr. Alex, GC has really developed a game console, and it will be officially released!"

CA headquarters.

the project leader of "The Collection of Cute Pets", went into Alex's office with a notebook: "He has even set up the official website of Pokemon, and it will be on sale at 8 o'clock in the evening!"

as he said.

Indra had already prepared the web server early and built the official website of Pokemon.

In addition to the upcoming GBA+ cassette sales function.

The official website of Pokemon, as well as players uploading videos to explain the strategy, player forums, and official game announcements, etc.

It can be said that only you can't think of it, and there is nothing you can't find on the official Pokemon website!

Originally, the exposure of this official website was not enough, and there were not many players registered online.

But because Indra posted a message on vlog, and GBA and game cartridges are about to be sold on the official website.

The number of registered users on the official website has increased by several orders of magnitude!

"What game console was actually developed?"

The focus of Alex is not on the construction of the game's official website at all. What he cares about is GBA: "This kind of concept machine should only be sold as a concept, and the number that can be sold should be very limited."

GBA!

This concept, CA has never thought about it.

Don't say that CA didn't think about it.

Alex can be guaranteed: Even those game makers abroad have never thought of developing a game platform that challenges computers.

After all, earth's technology has developed very rapidly, and the hardware of the computer can completely overwhelm everything.

Game companies only need to develop games that are suitable for computers.

Their minds are spent on how to make money by cutting leeks from games, who has the mind to develop a game console!

but now.

The newly emerging studio, GameChanger, not only came up with the concept of a game console, but also put it into action to develop it and sell it!

This was indeed unexpected.

However, he still believes that the computer is the best destination for games, and it is impossible for the GC to mass-produce something like GBA that sells concepts.

Selling gimmicks is enough.

"No, Mr. Alex, the number of hosts listed on their official website is 50,000!"

It's a pity that things are completely different from what he expected.

As the first machine to market the concept of game consoles, Indra priced each GBA at 50$.

It's not expensive, and it's the buyout price of a large-scale game.

The number of GBAs available for sale on the Pokemon official website is a full 50,000 units!

This number exceeded the expectations of Alex.

"Fifty thousand? What are you kidding?"

Alex's face was full of disbelief: "If I remember correctly, it hasn't been ten days since the release of Pokemon?"

Within ten days, 50,000 game consoles like GBA were produced?

How can this be?

Come to think of it, there is only one reason!

That is, long before the official release of "Pokemon", Indra already had plans to promote the concept of game consoles!

GBA is already production ready.

"Are they so confident?"

Ray was also surprised: "Isn't the GameChanger afraid of the violent loss of "Pokemon"?"

Whether GBA can sell well depends on the reputation and sales of the game "Pokemon".

Once the PC side of "Pokemon" hits the streets, these 50,000 GBAs will make a studio of this level of GC!

But rather.

People are confident that "Pokemon" can sell well, and it is really popular all over the Internet!

"Don't worry, I looked at the description of GBA at the bottom of the official website..."

Alex made a clear statement: "The performance of this machine is very ordinary, and many games on the market could have killed it in seconds."

"If I'm not mistaken, GBA should be something that the GC rushed out"

"Mr. Alex, you are right, the performance of this machine is too bad!"

Ray also took a brief look: "How could GC come up with this kind of machine to sell? And it's still 50,000 units?!"

"This thing can be sold for half... ah no, it can be sold for one-tenth, I will turn my head off and give it to the GameChanger to play as a ball!"

Ray scoffed at the prospect of GBA.

As far as GBA performance is concerned, even many low-end gaming laptops can beat it.

Why can it be sold out?

Fifty thousand more?

Take the first to sell 50,000 units!

"The price is not bad, but the quantity is too much, the performance is not enough..."

Halfway through the twist, the official launch time of GBA has arrived.

He also simply did not continue to pronounce on the failure of the game console of the GameChanger, and just waited for the joke and it was over.

Pokemon official website.

GBA's sales button just changed from green for pre-sale to red for start of sale, and then turned to gray in the next second.

The grey text box says: SOLD OUT!

Ray: Σ(っД;)っ

Alex:!!!∑(?Д?ノ)ノ

"This... what is this? The system of the official Pokemon website is wrong?"

Ray's response was quick: "Mr. Alex, is the server of their website crashed?"

"Probably."

Alex nodded:

"The popularity of Pokemon games is not low, and the number of users who poured into the official website at the same time should be too large, causing the website's server to crash."

Apart from the server crash, Alex couldn't think of any other reasonable explanation.

If you say that this is 50,000 GBA units sold out in one second?

Do not make jokes.

How is this possible!

But soon, the two of them noticed something different.

If the official website of Pokemon is down, why is the forum on the official website still running normally?

Some people have even posted on the forum that they have grabbed the game physical cassettes of GBA and "Pokemon Red"!

With the forum on the official website, there are more and more showing off stickers that have grabbed GBA consoles + game physical cassettes.

The reply function at the bottom of the post is also completely free of any lag.

Alex and Ray, who have been in the state of emoji, came up with a bold idea.

"Could it be that... these 50,000 game consoles are really sold out in one second?!"

"It's impossible! The performance of GBA is really not as good as that of ordinary computers. How can it be sold so fast?"

In fact.

GBA's main focus is not performance at all.

Even in indra's's last life, the performance of the game console could not be compared with that of the computer.

The reason why the sales of game consoles are guaranteed is that it is actually a game owned by the platform//Du!

Take the GBA that sells 50,000 units in seconds as an example.

Who is rushing to the performance of GBA?

Players are all going to play "Pokemon Red/Green" in a new device, or they are all wanted to as a collection!
