Chapter 811 Style

Some companies will be ridiculed for their fried rice, while some companies have been praised for their fried rice. The gap is quite big.
In this world, with the gradual popularity of video games, some companies have begun to fry cold rice more and more.
Because this is indeed an opportunity for old games to make money again.
Many game companies see that every time Yuxing Electronic Entertainment adds support for old games to new machines, they can win cheers and support from players, making them mistakenly think that these players really love these old games and are willing to support these old games. Pay for old games.
However, this is not the case.
The fact is that Yuxing Electronic Entertainment has always provided free support to players who have purchased these games.
As long as you have the old game cartridge, you can go to the official store of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment nearby to exchange for the digital version of the old game of the same version for free.
Of course, in order to prevent players from colluding with each other and reselling second-hand products, Youxing Electronic Entertainment will take back these physical cassettes.
Some players are reluctant to throw away these old games when they see it. Anyway, the prices of these supported old games themselves are not high, so it doesn’t matter if they just buy them again.
It is with this mentality that the old games of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment can be rejuvenated occasionally.
In the final analysis, it is not that these old games are really so attractive in this era, it is completely the nostalgic psychology of some old players.
As long as it is cheap enough, then they are willing to pay a little more for these old games.
However, other game companies do not have this kind of awareness. Most of their old games have little modification. They even threw the original version on the existing game console and sold it again, and the price is often not cheap. Players are naturally not fools. How is it possible to buy these games.
Wouldn’t it be nice to have that money to buy modern and popular game masterpieces?
There are inevitably some players who have been ridiculed by players in the fried rice company, and swear by themselves that they will never buy these fried rice games.
Some game companies have given up this method one after another when they saw that there is no profit to make fried rice.
So now, only Youxing Electronic Entertainment has been insisting on supporting the old games. The non-first-party game, Yuxing Electronic Entertainment, can't intervene.
But now, Zhu Yuxing intends to slightly change the way of cooking cold rice in the old game.
Since the problem we are facing now is that once the old game is logged on the new game machine, it may cause the instability of the new game machine.
On the one hand, in order to persevere all the time and guarantee his promise, on the other hand, he also wants to make these games really revive, and Zhu Yuxing decided to carry out a reset plan.
This reset is a program re-encoding based on the framework of the original game, and a high-definition game image quality.
Like the 8BIT screen game in the FC era, you can add some new special effects in this era.
Of course these all come at a cost.
But in fact, this thing is really not difficult to do.
Unless the source code is lost, the game development has some difficulties that cannot be easily reproduced.
And Youxing Electronic Entertainment has always attached great importance to this aspect, and has never lost the code of its own game works.
The source code of all games released so far is fully stored in the company's game database, and some of these games have also become part of Unreal Engine.
Completely reset some games that are suspected to have loopholes. Even if the program of each game is not difficult to develop, if the number of games increases, it is more or less a big project.
Fortunately, Zhu Yuxing is not in a hurry. He arranged for some of the old employees who had been idle in the previous mobile game department to take the newly recruited 100 employees to take charge of this matter.
The engineering development department is responsible for continuously testing the compatibility and stability of each old game. Once it is determined that a game will affect the system, the new team will take out the source code of the game and re-follow the original game code. Rebuild it on a new game development platform, and then add some new ways to play the game by the way.
And these, do not require players to spend extra money.
This is defined as the new reset plan of the game by Zhu Yuxing.
Like the old Super Mario, in fact, it can also be upgraded in the background and some special effects.
The current performance of game consoles can fully satisfy the random toss and upgrades of old games.
Of course, these old games will also retain an original old version, because some players are really nostalgic enough to like the original feel of old games.
Let's go back to the first Super Mario, if you let Zhu Yuxing play an 8BIT style Super Mario with more cool special effects, he may not be suitable, because he has long been used to the first generation of Super Mario. The style of painting, a sudden change is not necessarily really appropriate.
Adding special effects is just to see if we can increase the audience of some new players by the way.
The team who got this task is quite happy.
There are a group of restorers of cultural relics in the world. They specialize in restoring some broken cultural relics, and then re-present them to the world in a complete manner.
And now they are doing the same thing as a relic restorer.
It is also quite happy for them to restore some old games that have been regarded as antiques for more than ten years.
And when they learned that Zhu Yuxing did not intend to make extra money for players in this regard, they admired it from the bottom of their hearts.
However, what Zhu Yuxing thought was simply that if he took out this kind of reset game to make extra money, it would be detrimental to his style, and now he really doesn't like this little money.
If he really wants to make money, he will make a whole card-drawing game like Hearthstone, and he will earn more money than all games and then increase the price.
The reset of these old games can be regarded as a boost to the game industry.
When these employees saw that Zhu Youxing was so confident, they worked even harder. They were always able to reset a series of old games as soon as possible, and they also played the game in a very high-quality state. The picture quality is then changed to HD.
In a strict sense, the old game and the reset game can be regarded as two different games in terms of image quality improvement.
Zhu Yuxing saw that the results were good, so he was relieved to hand over the reset plan to this team, and the rest of the switch development became extremely smooth. If there are no other accidents, the switch release next year should be Not a big problem.
Uncharted Seas will also be released as the first game at that time.
