Chapter 512: The new handphone is amazing!
Translator: 549690339
Half an hour of trial time had pa.s.sed, but the two students were still not done.
Super Mali Odyssey was such a game. Before getting started, one would think that the game was childish and was meant for children to play. However, after getting started, one would feel that the game was very toxic and one would not be able to stop once they started playing!
During the game, everyone’s childlike innocence was stimulated to the maximum. They always felt that there seemed to be something hidden in every corner of the map. Every corner was extremely novel, like a fairy tale world full of mysteries, waiting for you to uncover them.
The bell for the end of cla.s.s rang, but no one had any intention of leaving. Even the audience below the stage was watching with great enthusiasm.
“I feel that the design of these moons is very interesting. They can actually appear anywhere? It’s like any strange corner on the map could hide the moon!”
“Yeah, and the two-player mode seems to be different from other multiplayer modes. One person controls the main character, and the other controls the hat?”
“And the hat can also possess other small animals! I was shocked when I possessed the frog. You can do this? Moreover, the frog’s ability is completely different from the main character ‘s. It can jump higher, which means that for certain levels, you have to possess a specific animal to pa.s.s. ”
“Yeah, and the overall quality is pretty good. Looks like Chen Mo really put a lot of thought into this game.”
“And the motion-sensing mode of this game looks very fun. It’s a pity that we can’t use it when we’re in pairs!”
“Of course, it’s because playing alone and playing with two people are completely different. When two people play, it’s obviously mainly to fight …”
“So, will you consider buying it when it’s on sale? It looks fun. ”
“But it shouldn’t be cheap, right? this game console costs at least 3000 Yuan? Its performance should be better than the mid-to-high-end cell phones on the market, and with the price of the game itself … I can’t afford it. ”
“Chen Mo hasn’t announced the price yet. How much is it?”
Chen Mo looked at the time. It had been ten minutes since cla.s.s ended, but no one had any intention of leaving.
He went to the podium and clapped his hands.””Alright, that’s all for today’s cla.s.s. If anyone is interested in this phone and game, you can buy it to play when it’s on sale.”
“Mr. Chen Mo,” someone asked.”You haven’t told me how much this is going to be sold for?”
“The price is 1999,” Chen Mo said.”That’s the total price of the console and the controller. If you buy the controller, it’ll be 499.”
Chen Mo saw everyone’s confusion, so he added,””These two joysticks can be connected to the mobile phone in the future. This way, everyone can play mobile games on the mobile phone.”
“Other than that, most games on Thunderbolt gaming platform will support controller connection mode. In the future, Thunderbolt gaming platform’s mobile, PC, and handheld consoles will all be connected. Of course, these plans are still in preparation, but they should be ready when it’s officially released. ”
The audience was shocked. It was obvious that Chen Mo’s continuous release of handphones, games, and follow-up plans in the past half an hour had shocked everyone.
Before this, many people thought that Chen Mo’s phone would take a long time to make, and that it would be impossible for it to reach a perfect standard right from the start. But after seeing the prototype today, everyone realized that they were wrong.
Chen Mo already knew the ultimate form of the phone!
Fang Yubin, the president of the School of Game Design, and a few other professors sat in the back row, their faces full of shock and surprise.
These people were considered professionals, and had a deeper understanding of the gaming industry than most students. After seeing the Switch and super Mali Odyssey, as well as Chen Mo’s future marketing strategy, they all realized that the game had great potential!
Clearly, Chen Mo didn’t just release a single handheld game, but a new game mode.
With the support of Thunderbolt gaming platform, Switch would have a large number of independent games. The more games there were on Thunderbolt gaming platform, the more the handheld device would benefit. That way, the problem of fewer games would be solved.
At the same time, the positioning of the handheld device was very clear. It was prepared for the players who had high requirements for the game’s portability.
For those who were unwilling to spend money on a phone, Chen Mo suggested a compromise, which was to buy a controller and play on the phone.
As for those who didn’t care about the 1000 Yuan, in order to get a better gaming experience, they would definitely buy a whole set of handheld consoles.
Moreover, even if everyone went to buy a controller instead of a handheld device, Chen Mo wouldn’t lose out, because he could still make money just by selling controllers and games.
Fang Yubin looked at the professor beside him and said,””I didn’t expect it to really be made. What do you think of the future of this mobile phone?”
“If it’s just a handphone, I don’t think it’ll have a bright future,” the professor sighed.”But Chen Mo isn’t just introducing a handphone. It’s like introducing a completely new game mode, and it’s filling in some of the gaps.”
“I think Chen Mo’s idea is feasible, but we’ll only know how many people will buy it after the release of the phone.”
……
After the latest lecture video was uploaded to the internet, it immediately caused a huge uproar.
Many people thought that Chen Mo’s handheld device was still in the planning stage, or even that the plan wasn’t perfect yet. But he had already made a prototype?
Someone had specially taken the last half an hour of the lecture video and posted it online. Soon, the players saw the real scene of “super Mali Odyssey” on the Switch!
Everyone’s reaction was as stunned as the students in the cla.s.s!
They thought that Chen Mo would come up with a game similar to the current mainstream mobile games, at most a large MMORPG, or a cross-era mobile card game.
But what no one expected was that Chen Mo would release a game that was completely different from any other mobile game on the market!
The game was extremely casual and supported motion-sensing and two-person game modes. The target group of players was very wide, and children over the age of ten and middle-aged and elderly people in their fifties and sixties could enjoy it.
This kind of game was almost extinct in the current game market!
Chen Mo even explained in cla.s.s that the controller could be connected to mobile phones in the future, and that Thunderbolt gaming platform would be installed on the handheld device, and most of the games on Thunderbolt gaming platform would support controller mode.
In other words, this phone was mainly squeezing PC and mobile game users.
