The PSP had already lost!
What was the most hopeless thing in the world?
That must be when they realized that their products were doomed to fail before they even hit the market.
After returning from Da Qian's press conference, Ryomiken understood that the PSP had no chance of survival at the moment.
It wasn't because Ryogi Ken was too pessimistic. It was because Ryogi Ken was a genius. He saw through the Daqian's plan at a glance.
"The Daqian had probably been planning since the release of their first game!" Ryogi Ken looked at the smiling Boss Jia on the stage. After thinking for a long time, he finally understood how big of a plan Boss Jia had set up.
First, he used the handheld game Pokemon to enter the gaming market. Especially by choosing a GB console, Daqian Games could directly harvest Nintendo's users.
That was why the Daqian Games would never give up the rights to Pokemon under the threat of Yamauchi Puku, even if they had to sign a billion USD penalty.
Then, when the PC gaming industry was in the ascendant, they set up a large scale PC gaming market, acquired a large number of PC gaming studios, and formed the entire Daqian Games.
Currently, the Daqian Games was even bigger than Nintendo. They already had dozens of different well-known game IPs and hundreds of different games.
Then, the Daqian Games created a monster called a steam game store. Then, they wanted to mess with their own computer operating system. At the same time, they set up a network, and they even created a wireless network technology called wifi.
In the end, all of the Daqian Games' plans were put together and formed the terrifying Daqian Games Group.
The Daqian Games Group had a monopoly on the steam game online platform. 90% of the world's games were on the steam game store, and most of them supported the Hongmeng System.
Now that the Qian Kun Handheld had the Hongmeng System built into it, it opened up a channel between the handheld and the online game store. Everything could be downloaded and installed directly through the network. There was almost no need for game cartridges.
What a huge plan. Ryogi Ken thought about how the Qian Kun Handheld could play any game on the steam game platform anytime, anywhere, while PSP users had to constantly buy game cartridges to play the game. Moreover, the game library's storage was less than one-tenth of the Qian Kun Handheld's. Ryogi Ken's despair.
What kind of concept was this?
This was equivalent to Nintendo, Steam, and Android merging into one company. One could imagine how much resources this company could mobilize in the entire gaming industry.
If Ryogi Ken knew that Boss Jia had set up mobile and online games, and these two games could be connected to the Hongmeng System in the future, he would be calling Boss Jia the God of Business.
But even now, Ryogi Ken was about the same. In Ryogi Ken's eyes, the young man on the stage, who was only in his early thirties, was already one of the world's greatest entrepreneurs. Under his leadership, the Daqian Empire was built.
Does Sony still have a chance to defeat this empire?
Just when Ryogi Ken was sighing in his heart, Boss Jia laughed and said. "Next, we will take a five-minute break, and then we will start the second half of today's conference!"
"There is still the second half!" Ryogi Ken was exhausted and was ready to leave. Now, you are telling me that there is still a second half?
What will happen in the second half?
After a while, Liang Mujian had an ominous premonition. However, as the saying goes, what you are afraid of will come true. After 5 minutes, Liang Mujian saw a square box behind Boss Jia, which looked simple and unadorned.
"Mainframe!" Ryōki Jian gritted his teeth, his voice almost roaring out from between his teeth.
That's right. After Daqian introduced Qian Kun Transformer during the first half of the conference, they introduced another bomb in the second half of the conference: Qian Jue Console.
This was a game console that surpassed the PS2 in all aspects. It could even support 1080P display and so on.
Of course, these weren't important. The most important thing was that the Qian Jue gaming console was also using the Hongmeng system. Due to the superior performance of the console, it could be loaded with more games. Many PC games didn't even require any modifications and could be played directly on the console. After all, many games came with their own controllers.
That's why Daqian announced Qian Jue Console's launch lineup of 1,054 different games. It is more than the PS2 in its first year.
At the end of the second half of the conference, they announced the prices of the two consoles.
The Qian Kun Transformer comes in two versions: normal screen version and touchscreen version. The former is priced at 299 USD, and the latter is priced at 399 USD. It is the same as the PSP globally.
Qian Jue Console comes in two versions, and it is priced at 399 USD globally. It is the same as the PS2.
However, Qianjue's console had an additional accessory package. It only cost $49 to purchase a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse.
The keyboard and mouse were custom-made for Qian Jue. There was no need to connect the keyboard and mouse directly through Bluetooth. This way, gamers could experience the feeling of playing games with a keyboard and mouse that they could only experience on a PC through Qian Jue's console.
The media is not surprised by this price, but it is a huge blow to Yugiko Ryogi.
Although the prices of the two companies' machines were the same, Sony used the best equipment to make the PSP and PS2 better than Da Qian. This caused the cost of the equipment to be high, and Sony had to make a loss of about 10 USD for every PSP sold.
This is not a big deal, and Yugiko Ryogi is confident that he can stop his losses with the sales of the games and the price of the components in the future.
But this time, Daqian Qian Kun Transformer and Qian Jue Console came out of nowhere, and their figures are higher than Sony's. But the prices are the same, and the number of games is much higher than Sony's. Yugiko Ryogi knows that Sony Games is in dire straits this time.
Once Boss Jia made his move, he destroyed the entire Sony Games with just one product launch. This sent chills down the spines of Sony.
