Chapter 512 Release, Grab!

While the topic continued to ferment, a Weibo post by Chen Mo instantly exploded the popularity.

This is a promotional video for the new handheld.

A beautiful girl is playing Switch on the TV at home, and the game screen can be clearly seen from the TV.

She slumped on the sofa, her left and right hands in various poses from time to time, and Mario in the picture is constantly performing corresponding actions.

As soon as the screen turned to the airport, after sitting in the seat, the girl opened the bracket behind the handheld again and played games on the plane.

In the car, at a party...

Several scenes were switched in a row, and the girl played not only the game "Super Mario", but also many very simple somatosensory games.

Chen Mo also took the time to make some collections of mini-games. These mini-games are mainly from "1-2-Switch", which include cowboy duels, milking of cows, hand-to-hand fighting, table tennis and so on.

These mini-games are all great choices for parties, because they don't require staring at the screen, just stare at the opponent's eyes and perform somatosensory operations.

In the promotional video, the girl and her best friend did not look at the handheld screen at all, but held the handles and looked at each other in various poses, which also surprised many people.

After seeing the video of Chen Mo in the classroom and the promotional video of the handheld, the wind direction of many game media people also changed.

"Maybe we all misunderstood Chen Mo's intentions. The biggest advantage of Switch is the collection, which brings together a lot of content that we neglected on one device!"

"For example, we had somatosensory games before, but the traditional somatosensory gameplay was too simple, and most players would not buy special equipment just to play such a single or two single somatosensory games."

"For another example, there are actually many casual action games on the market, but none of them have achieved the level of "Super Mario Odyssey". Although there are some games that have two-player mode, like Odyssey, one person controls the protagonist. The man-controlled hat model has never been seen before!"

"The advantage of Switch is that it integrates all these elements that we ignore into one machine. Obviously, there are some people in the current player group who like somatosensory games and this type of casual games. Appear, these people can complete the above demands at the lowest cost!"

"Chen Mo has prepared two solutions for them very intimately. If you are still on the sidelines and your wallet is not rich, you can only buy two handles. These two handles have somatosensory technology and vibration technology. After connecting to a mobile phone or computer You can also feel the fun of the game.”

"If you have requirements for gameplay, you can buy a full set of handheld equipment, which is actually not expensive. In addition to the price of the handle, the main body of the handheld is actually only 1,500 yuan, and it is more expensive to play the game than the same price. The performance of the mobile phone is a few grades ahead!"

...

At the same time, many independent designers on the Thunder game platform also got the news, and Chen Mo encouraged these designers to revise their games into a controller-operated version.

In fact, it is very simple to change, because the handle operation mode has a set of basic rules, Chen Mo only needs to hand over the basic rules to these designers, and then let them play freely.

Like some casual games, light action games, and puzzle games, they can be changed to handheld versions without any pressure.

Moreover, Chen Mo has a certain discount for the handheld version of these games, basically giving an extra 10% to the designers, which is equivalent to encouraging everyone to develop games specifically for the handheld mode.

Many independent game designers saw this opportunity and changed their games to be compatible with the handheld version, and some designers even considered developing independent games with a somatosensory mode like Odyssey.

Of course, most people are still on the sidelines.

Because no one knows whether this new model will be accepted by players, and it is completely uncertain how many handles and handhelds will be sold.

Everything only depends on sales to speak!

...

On May 1st, after nearly three months of preparation, the Switch equipped with "Super Mario Odyssey" was officially released!

This time, it is basically based on online purchases. Just like when most mobile phones are released, the purchase link of Switch is displayed on the official website and several larger shopping sites at the same time.

Of course, in addition to "Super Mario Odyssey", Switch also carries many other mini games by default, such as cowboy duels, etc. These mini games are not large in capacity, but for special occasions such as parties and two-player games, they are It can best reflect the characteristics of this handheld.

Prior to its release, reviews of the Switch were polarizing.

After seeing the demo video of the Switch, some people were intrigued and were pleasantly surprised by this new somatosensory game and two-player game mode. They firmly believed that the Switch handheld had some features that other devices did not have. , For example, a more complete somatosensory system, can play anytime, anywhere, and can be seamlessly connected to devices such as TVs, which will be a very key advantage.

But there are also many people who sing badly, especially those who have been arguing with Chen Mo for a long time, still firmly believe that this handheld will not succeed, at most it will not lose or make money.

There are many reasons for them. On the one hand, when smartphones are so popular, the positioning of handhelds and mobile phones is somewhat duplicated. Play on TV.

And many people think that even if Chen Mo used his Thunder game platform to provide a large game library for this handheld, most of the games were forcibly changed, and players played the same on mobile phones as on computers. Why? Does it have to be played on a handheld?

The two groups of people are tearing up and tearing apart, and all the results will not be determined until the sales volume is released.

...

In the dormitory of Shiyi University.

Several boys majoring in game design were all huddled in front of the computer.

"On sale at 10 a.m., there are five minutes left, hurry up and get ready."

"Don't be in such a hurry, right? This is not a train ticket."

"I can't tell you, Chen Mo has not announced the specific stocking figures. If he prepares less, for example, there are only tens of thousands of units, wouldn't it be robbed all at once? Only players who support Chen Mo in China will How many are there!"

"That's not possible, right? There are only a few people like us who buy it as soon as it comes up. I think most people want to wait and see."

"Anyway, pay attention. It's enough for us to grab one for one dormitory. If we can't grab one at that time, it will be embarrassing!"

"That's not possible, just the speed of my brother's hand to grab a train ticket, is it a trivial matter to grab a handheld?"
