摘要

摘要本研究以视频游戏机为背景，考察了互补产品对平台竞争的影响。使用10年的面板数据，结果表明，高质量的软件对硬件需求有着不成比例的显著影响。高质量的独家软件是影响消费者效用的重要因素，它往往在硬件制造商的垂直整合子公司中开发。此外，本研究还发现，高质量的多主页软件在平台后期的平台增长中发挥着作用。

Platform Competition in the Video Game Console Industry: Impacts of Software Quality and Exclusivity on Market Share

ABSTRACT This study examines impacts of the complementary products on platform competition, in the context of video game consoles. Using 10-year panel data, the results demonstrate that high-quality software has a disproportionately significant effect on hardware demand. The high-quality exclusive software is an important factor affecting consumers’ utility, and it tends to be developed in hardware manufacturers’ vertically integrated subsidiaries. In addition, this study also identifies that high-quality multi-homing software plays a role in platform growth in a platform’s later stage.
