Analysts of Wedbush Financial Analysis Company, Michael Pachter, frequent in the game industry, have recently been interviewed by the media and talked a lot, but the most curious thing about Qi is his discussion on Microsoft's strategy.Everyone has seen Microsoft's recent moves. First of all, it emphasizes the value of Xbox Live members, and launched a preview qualification of Steam's first experience. The proportion of members is very high. In addition, many games on the Xbox One platform have been pushed to Windows 10.To create a general game ecosystem, it seems to be gradually weakening the hosting business.Are these signs of solid or catching the wind?

Pachter said that Microsoft is actually preparing for the future, and the future he predicts that the host will become more and more important because the game platform will be richer.

"I don't think that Microsoft wants to gradually withdraw from the host industry. I think the game console will inevitably disappear. It is reasonable that when this console is over, the life cycle of each new generation host will beReduced the original half.

He pointed out that the appearance of the game console was because there was no device specially used to play games at that time, and the game console could allow users to play games on TV at home.It is precisely because of the blank market that the host is popular.However, with the emergence of modern electronic devices, such as smartphones, tablets, PCs, and PCs, there is a device like Apple TV. The platform of video games has become more and more diverse, and the restrictions have no longer exist.Of course, the game console may still exist, because many players are used to the game experience of the host, but the pillar position of the game console in the entire game industry will be gone.The ecology of the entire video game industry will become more diverse, and it will be completed by millions of interconnected devices, and no game manufacturer is willing to bundle themselves with a certain console.

"EA sells" FIFA "each year, and can sell about 18 million units, but this is achieved on the base of 150 million host players. There are 2.5 billion people around the world to access the Internet. If such user bases are used as the sales base, EA will reachWhat sales? At least double. "Call of Duty" is also, so any game brand is.CPU/GPU devices can become a platform for players to start the game, as long as they are Windows 10 systems.

The author has a certain degree of approval for the Pachter view.Although the argument of "host games will die" is too exaggerated, it has to admit that the market share of the console game will continue to shrink because the development of the market is expanding towards the new game equipment.We have now seen the increase in the game market of the PC platform and mobile phone platform.In the short -to -medium -term future, this trend may only be intensified, and the new game platform will bring us more surprises.
