Chapter 573： Buy Zelda even gave a switch

While the popularity of "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" continued on the Internet, another hot news was suddenly on the hot search rankings.

Switch's global shipments are as high as 4 million a week, and even some countries and regions have out of stock.

After seeing this news, all the major game manufacturers were in an uproar. Although it was felt that Nebula Games had released a big move, no one thought that this big move was too big.

Although it has been said that the games under Nebula Games have suffered a fracture in recent times, even the switch has also suffered a fracture, and there are machine subsidies.

The original 2000 machine, the operator reduced the price to 1799 and sold it to the player, and the difference between the amount in the middle was supplied to the supplier by Nebula Games.

But obviously these are not enough to make Switch's sales usher in such a big explosion.

The game "Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" is the main game, plus the fractures of other games on the switch and machine discounts.

It can be said that the combination of these factors has long caused the switch to ship 4 million a week. "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" is a bait to seduce players, while the discounts of other games and the discount of machines are invisible. 'S hand gently pushed forwards behind the players.

Counting the previous global sales of the switch, the users of the switch platform have already exceeded 10 million. Compared with the traditional PC platform, it seems that this number is not high.

But you must know that these are all channel users of Nebula games!

For game manufacturers, players can be loyal users, and they choose to purchase games in order to feel the style of a game manufacturer making games.

However, few players are so loyal to the platform. This is also the situation that major PC platforms have begun to focus on social and third-party services in order to retain users.

But it is different on the switch. At present, it is only a switch that is worth buying on the market.

However, there are a large number of independent game studios, and some game makers see their eyes after seeing the sales of the switch.

This is a new field that has never been opened up, and compared with the endless PC platform of masterpieces, independent games are now increasingly trending towards large-scale large-scale production of 3A-level games. Small-scale production can be said to be quite uncomfortable.

But as a handheld, switch is not the same as the party-oriented attribute!

The endless stream of game manufacturers and some studios with some resumes have applied to Nebula Games and asked about the development of games on the switch.

For game players who directly think of their own meaning, for ordinary players, their channels are obviously not in line with the manufacturers.

After seeing the news about the best-selling switch on board the hot search, players who bought the switch one after another had hot discussions online.

‘In terms of this shipment, did this kind of grandeur happen when the switch was just released? ’

‘Aren’t these players who bought the switch bought them for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild? ’

‘+1, you’re upstairs, you bought it for this game! ’

‘Switch? what is that? I bought "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild"! Even this game is more expensive than two thousand! But it is a bit surprising that this game even gave a handheld. ’

'When the switch was released, I refrained; after the sale of "Super Mario: Odyssey", I refrained; even after the game of "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" came out, I put myself I paid the hand that I paid for and pulled it back. But when I saw the green discount that Mr. Yang gave me, I knew I had been completely defeated. ’

‘I felt sorry for a moment after placing the order. After all, I bought a game console for this game, but after playing it, I can only say: Real Nima Xiang! ’

Although most players know that players who buy switches purely for the game "Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" are not able to say no, but they belong to the relatively few players, and most of them have already More interested, and "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" and the discount offer are just an introduction.

But this does not prevent the players of the switch from playing.

What ‘I bought the switch is for Zelda’ and ridicule like ‘buy Zelda to send the switch’ also quickly spread among the players.

Of course, in addition to the stalk that was on fire, there was also an expression bag of Yang Chen who was on fire.

At the press conference of "Wolf: Shadows Die Twice", Yang Chen's smile was edited by players to match "Wolf: Shadows Twice" and "Dark Soul", this time it was another Added a green discount smiley pack.

…………

Regarding the fact that he was made into an emoticon again, Yang Chen was quite open-minded.

After all, you have to take money from your pocket.

As for the situation that the switch platform is valued by other game manufacturers, Yang Chen is not surprised.

When it reaches a certain scale, it will always be targeted by others.

For the Nebula game, the switch has been steadily developed in the early stage, and it is a bit exaggerated to say that it is already strong.

But at least there is no malnutrition, which is undoubtedly a thing.

Regarding the follow-up promotion of the switch with the help of "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild", basically Yang Chen is not too concerned about it.

The next major task is the responsibility of the marketing department and the switch operation department. Yang Chen himself put more energy back on the game "The Witcher: Wild Hunt".

For the plot of the entire game, Yang Chen has almost completed a general outline.

Of course, specific branches, such as appropriate text, still need to be enriched by the screenwriter team.

Otherwise, you really want Yang Chen to write down the book "Hunter" in the dream memory, then don't do anything.

In addition to the related development of "The Witcher: Wild Hunt", Yang Chen also learned about Lin Jiayi's development of "Resident Evil 4".

It is different from the original The material library of Nebula Games is now very rich, and the experience of the entire team is also good enough. The development progress of "Resident Evil 4" is also beyond Yang Chen’s expectations, even The whole model has come out.

"Really do linear?" Although before the takeover of "Resident Evil 4", Lin Jiayi already knew the next new project about the plot direction from Yang Chen, but did not see "The Legend of Zelda" at that time. : Breath of the Wild" before.

After seeing "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" Lin Jiayi, like most game designers, feels incredible.

Open world games can still do this! ?

Even this game makes him feel that the future of the open world should be done in accordance with the standards of this game.

After developing a "Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" according to the normal way of thinking, shouldn't you continue to launch similar games?

And in Lin Jiayi's view, many details, hindering the function of the switch can actually be more perfect.
