Chapter 91 Exhibition

The majority of electronic game exhibitions face the main groups that are not ordinary players, and the same is true for consumer electronics exhibitions. Most of the people who come to the consumer electronics exhibitions are not ordinary people.

Of course, this does not refer to the specific number of people, but to the influence.

For example, many exhibitions now have media open days a day in advance, and what these media experience on the open days will eventually turn into paper or video reports.

The reason why Yokoi Junhei did not choose the game exhibition, but chose the consumer electronics exhibition exhibition was actually to allow VrBoy to attract attention on a larger scale.

You should know that the protagonists of the Consumer Electronics Show in this era are basically TVs, digital cameras, refrigerators, washing machines, and even mobile phones have not received widespread attention due to price reasons.

The exhibition hall where VrBoy is located is with a display device like a TV.

Yokoi Junhei's positioning of VrBoy is also a future gaming console based on future display technology.

During the first day of media interviews, many media people came to experience VrBoy specifically.

Don’t think that Nintendo is just an electronic game company, you should know that it is also a game console manufacturer.

In this world, there are not many electronic products with sales of over 10 million in a single model.

Nintendo has several models, starting from red and white machines, then to game boys, to super red and white machines, all of which are sold by one model with a sales volume of over 10 million.

If we include the derivative models of each series, even the sales volume of these three series exceeds 30 million.

No matter which company has such sales, it is one of the well-deserved consumer electronics giants.

However, Nintendo didn't think so before, and he didn't attend any consumer electronics exhibitions.

But the media have never felt that this way. If Nintendo had participated before, they might not be so excited, but this first time in the first place, just like the first time for boys and girls, is a very precious existence.

VrBoy is indeed unique from all previous game consoles and all consumer display devices. The three-dimensional picture conquered almost all the reporters present.

In fact, journalists are much easier to handle than Nintendo, because reporters only care about big news, and they just whisper. No matter how good the sales of this thing are in the last 6, or how bad it is, they have nothing to do with them.

But this is not the case within Nintendo. The development of VrBoy requires occupancy of resources that other departments can have, and the same will be true for promoting VrBoy.

You should know that there are only so many places to post posters in every store, and the energy of every potential player is limited.

The best places are glued to VrBoy's posters and put on VrBoy's machine, so the sales of other gaming consoles will definitely be affected.

This is a natural thing.

Therefore, their requirements for VrBoy are naturally more stringent.

Even VrBoy is still a good thing for them.

The reporters are different. You should know that various exhibitions are not easy to report. It would be fine if the products of this year were innovated, but most of the time there was no innovation.

It is not easy to attract people to see something in a single way.

Although some space can be filled in for things like registration parameters, the audience doesn’t like to read them.

This time, the absolute protagonist of the Tokyo Consumer Electronics Exhibition is Sony. After all, Sony in this era almost represents the highest achievement of Japanese electronic products, the electronic product empire.

However, Nintendo's VrBoy product has a popularity that is more than any Sony product.

"It's such a wonderful experience. I never thought I could play like this before. This picture is so amazing.

Especially the feeling of playing tennis, I really feel that tennis is about to hit my face!"

A young female reporter said, holding a microphone.

Other media people are also taking photos or taking notes.

Yokoi Junhei went to the exhibition site today to introduce and display the VrBoy machine to the reporters present.

In fact, if this kind of reporters does not charge the benefits, and the media does not charge the benefits, the opportunity to promote products for free is hard to come by, but for Nintendo, their products have always been good enough for Junpei Yokoi.

On the contrary, it is not that their products need to rely on media traffic promotion, but that the media must rely on Nintendo's products to maintain traffic.

The supply and demand relationship has reversed, so it is impossible to see things like the Uncrowned King asking for red envelopes and gifts in Nintendo.

Junhei Yokoi, who is already in his fifties, is actually very tired when facing these reporters, but for his own products, he must stand on the front line.

The assistants around him kept helping Junhei Yokoi wipe his sweat. Junhei Yokoi would bow respectfully after every reporter finished playing.

In fact, it is said that it is to play, but there are very few things that can be played at this exhibition. There is only an unfinished baseball game, and it is not even accurate to say that it is a baseball game. It is just a clip of a baseball game.

There is only one set of opportunities to hit, and there are very limited things that players can control.

This is also impossible. VrBoy has some problems with real-time input.

You should know that any input method will have a delay, just high or low. For example, the operation delay of the red and white machine is actually very large, but it can use later technical means to make players feel small.

However, VrBoy cannot do this. Once the delay is too high, it will greatly increase the probability of players being dizzy. Therefore, with this baseball game, it is the only game that can display almost no dizziness.

This kind of product that is in the display stage will always have various problems.

This is true for companies all over the world, and it is understandable.

The reporters would not just pour cold water on them now. Instead, they would have to wait until the product is blown up before pouring cold water on them.

This is the way of survival of the media and the routine of the media.

There is always a big news, and it is always out of the ordinary.

When something is not famous, it will blow it to the death. After it becomes famous, ordinary people think it is normal for this thing to become famous and then they will belittle it to death.

The reason why the media does this is not because they want to do this, but can only do this, because only when they are different from their audience’s opinions can they be opinion leaders, lead the trend, and survive.

Like the curious media, Sony people are actually very curious about this VrBoy game console.

You know, Sony is an electronic product empire, and an electronic product empire has never had a decent gaming console platform. In fact, it is a pain in Sony for a long time.

A reporter affiliated with Sony Media also experienced the VrBoy machine at the first time.
