During the time when the switch was launched.
All kinds of news are overwhelming.
At first, there was only a small movement in the early days of the launch. Those who paid more attention to the switch were the loyal fans of Nebula Games.
Mainly due to the power of word of mouth.
This is also the reputation Nebula Games has accumulated over the past few years.
Just like V Club in the previous life made controllers, VRs, and handheld consoles, there were still fans buying and buying.
Of course, this only determines a lower limit. How high the upper limit of a device can be depends not on fans, but on the public.
The unique irreplaceable attributes of the switch and its affordable price have made many players who are waiting to watch it want to buy it.
However, when these players started to think about buying it, they found that this special one was not available at all.
The second batch of switch console shipments was 150,000 copies. Just like when the first batch was launched, it was cleared out almost instantly.
Although Chen Xu is not thinking about hungry marketing, and has also issued a notice to the outside world, saying that there will be a large supply of goods at the end of June.
But that won’t stop anxious players.
And under such circumstances, the popularity of switch is getting higher and higher.
This is mainly due to human psychology.
When something is not out of stock, you won’t pay much attention or care.
Because you can always buy it if you want it.
And now the switch is sold out, which directly makes countless players feel confused.
Relevant switch content is refreshed every day.
And this look is incredible.
The more I look at it, the more I want it, and the more I want it, the more I pay attention to it. This directly transforms into a perpetual motion machine.
At the same time, the exclusive game "Super Mario: Odyssey" on the switch has added fuel to the flames.
For players who buy a switch, they must buy games.
Otherwise, although the switch is not expensive, it can’t be bought back to be treasured, right
Two of the exclusive games, "Animal Forest" and "Super Mario: Odyssey", are naturally the first choice for players.
But for now, more players are still focusing on "Super Mario: Odyssey" because this game is richer in terms of gameplay content.
And just as players think, gameplay is the most critical core of this game.
After countless players got started, they immediately felt unable to stop.
Throughout the entire game, every player seems to have found the same feeling they had when they first played the game.
There seemed to be hidden objects hidden in various places on the map, and they were driven to find out.
When a new difficulty is reached, I always think of quitting the game if I can solve it.
As a result, I spent most of the night playing.
Of course, there are actually a lot of easter eggs in the game, and players have no way of understanding them.
For example, in the celebration level in City Kingdom, Mario's ex-girlfriend Pauline appears again after 36 years in her previous life, and the level also reproduces the design of the first generation Mori Yoshihiro, with Pauline singing 'jump up'. super star! 'It can be said that I am full of emotions.
However, although there is no way for players to understand the easter eggs, the simple games and levels can still surprise players.
Switching between 3D and 2D, switching between high definition and pixels, this sense of time travel makes many players feel happy.
After all, "Super Mario: Odyssey" in the previous life could achieve sales of over 20 million, but in fact, emotional players only accounted for a part of it.
More importantly is the design of the game itself, "Super Mario: Odyssey".
And along with the experience of "Super Mario: Odyssey", major game media have also released the latest reviews of this game.
And they are all high scores.
Although neither the game console nor the game has been launched overseas yet.
But obviously many overseas media have also been paying attention.
For example, gamespot, a well-known overseas top streaming media in the industry, immediately reviewed "Super Mario: Odyssey".
'Open world? No, this is the world of Hakoba. '
'If we talk about open world, then Nebula Games should be the manufacturer that knows this type of game best. "Red Dead Redemption" told everyone that games can do this! '
'But Odyssey is different. While industry game manufacturers such as Atrai, NetDragon, and Tenghua are all moving towards open worlds, Nebula Games has adopted Hakoba's world design for "Super Mario: Odyssey". Of course, there are Maybe it's just because of the limitations of the machine's capabilities. '
'But one thing you have to admit is that this design is simply perfect. There is no large map that will make players jaw-dropping, but only a dozen independent small and medium-sized areas. '
'The gameplay is also based on these areas. The levels and puzzle settings in the game are like thumbtacks nailed to the corners of these maps. '
'If that's the case, then it's just an excellent game that can't carry too high a score, but its level design is unique. '
'Adventures hidden in corners are full of strange things and an astonishing number of collectibles. '
'Music notes, unlocking mechanisms, jumping, racing, collecting gold coins, skipping ropes, and remote control racing all test players' skills and imagination from all angles. Many contents are even more interesting than the main storyline. '
'In the game, players will even experience a level that changes from a 3D screen to a 2D screen. Such a level that switches eras makes people marvel at the creativity of this game. '
'In addition, the game perfectly explains what is called the lighthouse effect. In the game, players need to collect some specific things, and these things will not be hidden directly in the game, but will even be placed openly in front of the players. '
'The purpose is for you to collect, and when you collect, you will find that when you arrive at a new place, you will find other clues, which are as conspicuous as a lighthouse on the vast sea. '
'The levels of the game are full of strong psychological implications, allowing players to always discover new things. '
'Such repetition makes the players develop a habit, which leads to the fact that even if there is no lighthouse in subsequent levels, the players will still habitually explore to find it. '
'The thing that makes players think about the most in this game is probably did I miss any moons and currencies here? Did I really collect them all in the previous level? '
'In addition, the hat possession setting in the game has greatly improved the fun of the entire game. '
'Coupled with the use of motion sensing mode, this makes the game Odyssey a perfect match with the switch. '
'If you want to choose a game that can perfectly utilize the features of switch and is interesting enough, then Odyssey will be the best choice! '
The uniformly high ratings make some players who have not bought a switch even more anxious.
Of course, domestic players feel better.
Because Chen Xu said on the official blog that there will be a large supply of goods at the end of June and early July, at least the chance of grabbing them is still great.
But foreign players are different.
Previously, there was information about games such as Switch and "Super Mario: Odyssey" on the Internet.
But they don’t understand Chinese anyway, so as long as they don’t try to understand it, that’s fine.
But what are you doing with gamespot reviews now?
And forget about the reviews, you are almost blown to the sky!
Countless overseas players directly expressed their collapse.
These high-scoring reviews directly touched their hearts.
And there is no shadow of the overseas version of this switch or "Super Mario: Odyssey" yet!
For overseas players, Nebula Games has nothing to lose.
But obviously gamespot's review of games is a very big pie for overseas players, and it's a very traditional kind of pie.
Because you have no idea when you will get it.
