Game Making: The Latest Chapter Begins With Healing the Player

With the launch of the overseas version of the switch, the same trend has also been linked overseas.

panic buying, out of stock...

The situation that appeared in China two months ago was almost perfectly replicated overseas.

At the same time, Nebula Games also released the sales data for the switch for the first time.

It took two months from the domestic release to go online when the overseas version was released.

Now Nebula Games has also announced the sales data for the switch.

Worldwide shipments were 4.1 million units.

This figure also shocked the major game manufacturers in China.

Because up to now, in fact, the sales of the switch are still very strong.

At least on major e-commerce websites, although there will not be a situation where the stock will be out of stock as soon as it is released.

But it can only last for a few days. Originally, many designers and manufacturers who have paid attention to the game industry feel that this is because the subsequent supply is not large.

But now it seems that this is not too big, but not enough.

And judging from the current situation of overseas launch, overseas can at least digest a lot.

If it is said that the early stage is based on the blessing of Nebulas game IP.

It can be developed to the present, but it is simply a success of its own switch handheld.

In addition, that is the sales of games on the switch platform.

"Super Mario: Odyssey" has no suspense, occupying the highest share of sales.

2.11 million sales.

And it must be taken into account that "Super Mario: Odyssey" has physical cartridges, and the second-hand game market also has corresponding cartridges in circulation.

Taking this into account, wouldn't it be equivalent to that one of every two switches is now entered by "Super Mario: Odyssey"! ?

Of course, as the sales of the switch increase in the future and more games are logged in, this number will definitely drop.

Because at present, these are the games that you can play if you buy a switch.

But even so,

This is also an incredible number.

The second largest sales volume is "Animal Crossing", which is second only to "Super Mario: Odyssey" in sales of 2.08 million.

This game can be summed up in a poem, that is, moisturizing things silently.

The silent popularity becomes the first, and the silent sales becomes the second.

And from the perspective of sales and popularity, it will not be surprising that it surpasses "Super Mario: Odyssey" to become the first in a period of time.

In addition to these, many game manufacturers were surprised.

That is, some old games that landed on the switch platform have achieved good sales.

Not only Nebula games, but also some games ported by some third-party studios, have achieved good sales.

In the beginning, these third-party game makers just wanted to sell Nebula games to save face.

After all, everyone eats and eats on the Nebula game platform.

But I never thought that this sales volume would be so high, not even lower than the sales volume on the PC platform.

In addition, there are member players on the switch.

Although many players choose to buy family members through group purchases, because it is cheaper.

But cheap is cheap, doesn't it cost money?

It can be said that the performance of the switch has made the manufacturers and media in the game industry a little stunned.

Chen Xu himself was actually a little surprised by this, but he was relieved.

Because the design concept of the switch itself is really amazing.

In the previous life, the switch can become the fastest-selling handheld, which is inseparable from its excellent quality.

It's not just relying on the old man's name to be able to do whatever he wants.

Otherwise, the WIIU will not die violently, and the success of the WII is actually based on the success of the blue ocean strategy. It has attracted many housewives to buy it because of its somatosensory features. For most light users, the WII is not a game. Machines are yoga mats, dance mats

Of course, the success or failure of a game console is not determined by these, and the escape of a large number of third parties is also the core point.

It is also officially based on this complicated reason. In fact, in the first escort game on switch, Chen Xu can choose more.

For example, games such as "Fitness Ring Adventure" and "1-2 Switch", but in the end Chen Xu did not choose, but chose "Super Mario: Odyssey" and "Animal Forest" as escort works.

Because Chen Xu's positioning of the switch is not a toy.

It's a console, it's a platform.

………………

In the reception room of Nebula Games, Chen Xu was also being interviewed by Game Time.

Of course, it is an interview, in fact, it is more inclined to publicity.

After all, the current sales of Switch can be said to have broken the records set by countless domestic handhelds.

Naturally, there are also a large number of media who want to interview on the topic of switch.

In order to better publicize it, this time Chen Xu was different from the past and conducted a lot of interviews.

"Mr. Chen, in addition to the first exclusive "Super Mario Odyssey" and "Animal Forest" on the switch, there are also quite a few brand-new mini games in the membership library, and the feedback from players is also quite good, and the follow-up part will be Do you have a plan?" The reporter sitting opposite Chen Xu asked a corresponding question.

It's not sharp, it's even a question of publicity for switch.

"Of course, in the follow-up member game library, some new mini-games will continue to be added, in addition to ported games such as "Minecraft", as well as new games specially created by third-party manufacturers for the switch. There are plans." Chen Xu Nodding and explaining.

At present, many switch players on the Internet have really high comments on these classic mini-games.

From a moment on, most players are members who open for online and cloud saves.

But after it was turned on, many players also had nothing to do to experience the small games in the membership library, but immediately after the experience, they felt that they couldn't get out.

In terms of visual effects and technology, these games are far from the mainstream.

But they found that these games are quite fun and playable.

For example, in the first generation of Super Mario, many players found various hidden contents after researching.

For example, water pipe jumping, and hidden turning heads, although it is only a 2D horizontal version, the level shaping is quite clever.

In addition, like the snowman brothers, Metal Slug is a small game that can cooperate with friends to break through the level.

And the game of Insect Princess and Turtledove.

The number is not much or not, and there are a total of 8 who entered the membership database for the first time.

Coupled with the two exclusive games on sale, as well as a lot of Nebula game porting and third-party porting, in fact, although there are not many games on the switch at present, there are definitely a lot of them.

As for why players feel very playable.

Because Insect Princess and Metal Slug were the favorite games of arcade hall owners in previous lives.

What? Why do you think the arcade owner likes it?

Because of the high difficulty, UU reading www.uukanshu.com is easy to eat coins!

On the switch, Chen Xu did not optimize the difficulty, but just added a new option, the challenge mode and the easy mode.

As the name implies, the challenge mode is to clear the customs with one coin.

The easy mode is dead and the resurrection continues, which is equivalent to unlimited coins.

For players who choose the challenge mode, then this game is really too playable.

"Then may I ask, will Mr. Chen switch more exclusive games in the future?" The reporter on the opposite side asked the last question.

"Actually, we already have corresponding plans. In fact, I have said it before, that is, in the second half of the year, we will also release an exclusive game for the switch, and it will be an open world type game, a completely Different from the open world game in the direction of "Red Dead Redemption: Redemption"." Chen Xu said with a smile.

The reporter opposite listened to Chen Xu's words, his eyes blinked, and he was stunned for a moment.
