Next, Chen Xu and Yan Xiong continued to introduce some features of the switch in detail.
Unlike the previous version of Switch, there are some contents that were not available on the previous version of Switch, and Chen Xu can also join in.
Resolution and configuration are basic, and the other thing is vibration.
The publicity of Switch in the previous life was the unique HD vibration technology. In the words of Lao Ren, if the player closes his eyes, he may really think that he is being pushed by something, and even the appearance of real objects can be Simulated through vibration.
But in fact, it is just like a painting. Although it does feel better than ordinary motor vibration, it is not as exaggerated at all.
The technology of the parallel world can go a step further. Although it is not as good as the performance of the VR experience room, it can make the player's experience better, which is something that mobile phones cannot do.
After all, mobile phones do not fully support games, and switch will be a machine dedicated to serving games.
For Chen Xu, what he wants to do is to build the switch into a new hardware platform.
What makes a game console profitable is never the machine itself, but the subsequent income.
Of course, the game consoles owned by Lao Ren in his previous life are an exception, because Lao Ren can also make a lot of money selling game consoles.
But that is due to Lao Ren’s years of accumulation. What Chen Xu needs is to bring the switch to the market as soon as possible. Even if he can make money, Chen Xu is more inclined to temporarily give up this profit and expand the market. .
Because a game console is just like a VR device and a PC device.
It won't be replaced for a year or two, or even longer, after buying it.
And how much profit can a game console make
But what about games
Nebula Games’ own first-party games, as well as third-party games that will be launched later.
There are always players who like it, right
You can’t buy a game console to collect it, but it must be used to play games, right
When it comes to playing games, you can’t just play one game, right
So let’s find out about other games
You can't buy it and suffer a loss, you can't buy it and you can't be fooled.
If you don't buy more games, won't your machine suffer a big loss
Chen Xu then continued to discuss the switch content with Yan Xiong before ending the meeting.
… … …
After Yan Xiong left, Qin Yi, Ruan Ningxue, Yang Xin and others from Nebula Games also gathered around Chen Xu with curious expressions on their faces.
"Mr. Chen, do we really want to make a handheld console?"
"Then are our next games going to be adapted for handheld consoles?"
Everyone asked curiously.
"Well, that's true. In addition, some games will be exclusive to handheld consoles." Chen Xu nodded lightly and said with a smile.
If there is one handheld design of the switch, it is the gorgeous skin.
Then the game it carries is Shining Soul.
Handheld consoles are also game consoles.
And what is the most important thing about a game console
That is of course the game.
Without games, no matter how good or high the handheld configuration is, it will not be able to impress players.
When the time comes, Switch, as a handheld console produced by Nebula Games, will naturally need to have some first-release escorts.
In addition, some games have been transplanted to make up for the head count and make the starting lineup less shabby.
Bigger games don’t need to be considered for now.
But games such as "Three Kingdoms", "Under the Legend", "House Kitchen", "Jelly Bean Man", "Twins" and "Minecraft" are all more suitable.
As for "Monster Hunter: World" and "Dark Soul" due to their relatively large size, we will have to draw a conclusion when the time comes, because there may not be enough time.
"Let's not talk about these things for now. During the meeting in the afternoon, I will focus on introducing to you the upcoming work arrangements."
"But in the future, everyone will be pressed for time and the work intensity will be relatively high."
Chen Xu looked at everyone and got a vaccination in advance.
Chen Xu also has some ideas in mind for the next few games that the switch will need to carry.
… … …
In the conference room, almost everyone has arrived.
Several consecutive masterpieces, especially the epoch-making "Red Dead Redemption" and the hugely successful "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare".
This made everyone in the team extremely excited and proud. At the same time, everyone was also speculating on what Chen Xu would do next.
Originally, everyone thought that they would continue to delve into the field of VR, but now looking at the current situation, do they want to develop the handheld business
"First of all, I believe everyone is aware of the latest situation."
"Yes, we will launch a revolutionary handheld console next."
"But for handheld consoles, the gaming platform is always a carrier, so the gaming aspect is very important."
"Different from the past, for the new handheld console, we need to make some unique game adaptations to increase the attractiveness of the handheld console to players."
"New games will be developed for the new handheld platform."
"In addition, Lin Tao and Meng Zuo will be quite busy here because you need to transplant and optimize the old games after the prototype is released."
Chen Xu watched everyone assign tasks.
Entering working mode, everyone nodded with serious expressions.
Then the name of the project they needed to develop next appeared on the big screen.
"Super Mario: Odyssey"
"Animal Forest" (Note: 1)
Looking at the two games in front of them, everyone showed expressions of astonishment.
Chen Xu also thought carefully when choosing these games.
The first is "Super Mario: Odyssey". In the previous life, when the switch reached 20 million sales.
The sales volume of "Super Mario: Odyssey" has reached 10 million copies, and this does not include the market data of second-hand cassettes.
It is equivalent to every two players who own a switch have played this game, and the score is even more explosive.
Although it is due to some reasons of the Mario series IP, the level creation itself can be described as perfect.
In particular, the gameplay is closely integrated with the functions of the switch. As the first exclusive escort game, it can be said that it cannot be better.
And the second game "Animal Forest" is a must-play for macho men.
How to make a strong man show his inner tenderness like water? It's easy to go to the uninhabited island to pick up branches and play house.
This is also a big IP worth tens of millions in the previous life. The sales exceeding 10 million within ten days of its release is terrifying, and the subsequent sales of more than 30 million are even more astonishing.
And the reason why this game is so popular is not just because of the influence of the previous IP.
You must know that this game was almost unpopular in China in its previous life. Before this, many players did not even know what Nintendo was.
Although it has a great impact on some specific relationships, it also illustrates the charm of its games.
Countless tough men are obsessed with picking up tree branches, and cabbage grows on the rooftop on Sundays and Saturdays.
There is also Schrödinger's bass. At the moment when the big fish shadow is caught, the wave function is collapsed into a bass through the player's observation, and transformed into a sentence: It's not fish sauce, it's a bass!
When the switch comes online, there will definitely be a shortage of games, so we need a game that can keep players here.
And this tough guy picking up branches is obviously the best choice.
There is another very important reason for choosing "Animal Forest" at the same time.
That is, this is a game that the more you play it, the more reluctant you are to let it go.
This is mainly due to the fact that it has a very special setting, and the time in the game is linked to reality.
Such a setting can be said to be quite suitable for handheld consoles, because one of the attributes of handheld consoles is that they are easy to carry.
Players can enter the island at any time to communicate with the residents and express feelings. The boy is obsessed with Xi Shihui's singing, and the girl is obsessed with the sultry cat named Jack.
