What is a browser game for people at the beginning of the 21st century?

In a large eastern country, for many people who are still using 56K cat dial-up Internet access, web games are basically simple word games, including the so-called "killing game" or "chat room" game, because there is only 2~10KB of dial-up network, which is really powerless for rich web content.

For the masses in the Lighthouse, web games mean casual games on the Internet, including Bejeweled Web, Zuma Web, or mini-games like Texas Hold'em. Especially with the recent popularity of Flash, similar games have become popular.

For the mud bombardment of this world line, the browser game at the beginning of the 21st century represents a revolution.

With the launch of "Borderless", it marks that browser games can not only be made into small games, but also can be made into large games.

This point of window paper can actually be broken as soon as it is stabbed, but very few people can think of it immediately.

Senxia's side occupies the right time and place, and it is strange that it is not successful.

In the first month of its launch, the game "Borderless" became the most popular game in the entire circle.

There is no other reason, just because the players in this game, Krypton are very crazy, and at the same time, many game manufacturers are surprised: there are so many players among the players......

Let's take a simple example.

The game "Borderless" is a benefit for heavy krypton players.

If the player's krypton gold can reach 100 orders, he can apply for a special service: that is, to make his own character into a figure, that is, the business of customizing the figure.

After qualifying, players can make their characters into figurines for a fee only. Even if you're not satisfied with the official coloring, you can get GK (Garage_Kit, unpainted resin mold) directly from here, and then polish, assemble and paint it yourself with semi-finished white ink.

According to the intelligence, so far, Company A has received more than 100 transactions.

In other words, in this game, there are more than 100 players with more than 880,000 yen in krypton.

And there are some players who are qualified enough, but they don't apply for it - because it's only the early stages of the game, and many people's characters are not "successful", and many people are actually not very satisfied with their roles.

Of course, one by one, the custom figures are made, which is actually quite fatal, but the local tyrant is willing, so there is no way.

- People are willing to pay, what else can you say?

Sen Xia's original business was to give the kryptonite boss who spent money some good game experience, but he didn't expect so many people to be willing to appear.

The appeal of "Teacher Xia Sen" and the golden signboard of A Society, what a huge market experience, Sen Xia also has a deep experience.

He only hates that he can't do 3D printing now, otherwise if he can print all these characters one by one, this is the most interesting thing!

In the future, Blizzard has done this kind of operation, and people directly let players 3D print characters. And the price is cheap, as long as 999 soft girl coins - well, compared to the figures, it is indeed quite cheap.

Senxia is referring to the other party's approach, but there is no 3D printing in this world, so he thought of a way to simply customize the figure directly.

However, Senxia was originally just an add-on, but he didn't expect the local tyrants to be so rich, so he did it. If you can continue to do it in the future, it will be the best.

Of course, this is just one of the episodes.

Because everyone is more concerned about the ability of the game itself to attract money.

And at this time, the Order of the Phoenix released a press conference in conjunction with Sega's Shoichiro.

This......

I can't understand this operation!

Sega, didn't you just cooperate with Nintendo before, and these two or five boys haven't finished yet, why did you go back to the Order of the Phoenix?

Didn't you say you wouldn't love it again?

As the other parties, Pu Yamauchi and Satoshi Iwata, naturally will not ignore this news.

"Shoichiro Iriko is now in turmoil, Sega is internally unstable, and schizophrenia is normal. ”

Sitting in front of the TV, two people are watching the live broadcast.

Unlike what the outside world speculated, Nintendo is as steady as Mount Tai about this news.

Because they took Sonic's rights for nothing in this matter, helped Nintendo promote a wave, and also got technical cooperation from Sega, of course, they were smiling.

On the contrary, in the past two days, there have been rumors that "Nintendo looks down on browser games on the market and is ready to come out and make browser games on its own", which makes them more passive.

Nintendo came out to refute the rumors at that time, but immediately the "Uncle Party" broke the news that Nintendo saw that "Borderless" was so popular, so it really planned to follow the trend and make one.

Of course, Nintendo refuted this news, this kind of news is guessed, but one thing is very subtle, Nintendo's high-level side did have an order to study this kind of browser game.

Although I didn't consider relying on this way to make money, I definitely need to understand, but the doorway is really complicated.

On the TV, it was Sega's president who appeared - Shoichiro Irito, who was about to lose the situation.

At this moment, the other party announced a news, that is, it is ready to open up the channel of the mud bombardment arcade hall and realize the online confrontation between the arcade halls.

"Arcade online?"

After Iwata Satoshi heard the news, he couldn't help but speak.

To put it simply, when players play games in the arcade hall, there will be a remote network mode, in this mode, players can play against players in other places, and the picture of the battle can even be broadcast to the arcade hall. Using this platform, arcades can even set up their own competitions.

It's not a big move, but it's a sight to behold. Because Mud Bombardment is also an arcade country.

And after this news, "Infinite Realm" also announced that it would cooperate with the world to develop an arcade version.

Not only that, "Borderless" also announced a new round of animation plans after that, and will work with "Magical Girl Naye" to produce an episode of OVA.

"It's really fast, it's only been online for such a short time, and the cooperation has begun, and Tianhai Senxia's courage is really strong. ”

Satoshi Iwata exclaimed.

Mori Xia's approach, let alone Nintendo, no other game company can learn from it.

As soon as the game was launched, various follow-up activities were immediately launched.

The arcade game is obviously to stabilize Sega.,As for the linkage OVA, it should be a test of the waters.,Maybe it will be directly out of TV when the time comes.。

"I always feel like it's not that simple. However, Yamauchi Pu frowned at this time.

He always felt that something was wrong.

The other party's purpose is really just that simple?

No, it doesn't seem like that.

Browser games aren't anything special.

Yes.

According to Yamauchi, browser games are a "sketch", the kind of genre that is difficult to get into the hall of elegance.

No matter how popular the game in front of you is, it can't surpass Nintendo in terms of word-of-mouth or gameplay.

There are sunspots who have sprayed "The degree of freedom of this game is completely reflected in the text" like this, in fact, ...... That's true.

Because in order to allow players to play smoothly, a lot of content is reflected in text or static pictures with special effects.

They didn't even include 2DLIVE to account for the pressure on the player to run it - this was to prevent the player's browser from getting stuck due to insufficient performance.

Although it is a browser game, the official is now considering whether it can launch a more advanced client version to achieve cross-platform work, and the client version can also have a better display effect.

But these ...... None of the key is the point!

There must be something crucial behind this.

Be...... And what?

"Hmm......"

At this moment, Senxia also appeared in the picture.

When he saw Mori Xia, Yamauchi Pu suddenly thought of something.

Although they are all several companies, whether it is the Phoenix Society, Musashino, or A Society, they all belong to Mori Xia.

In this case, if it is a listed company, even if several companies belong to one person, the situation will be more troublesome, but the problem is that these companies are not listed companies, and they belong to Senxia completely.

This means that the other party has the absolute right to speak in these companies, and the company does not need to be responsible for profits.

In other words, it's no matter how Senxia wants to play...... No problem!

I'm afraid that it won't be long before people will directly engage in a group.

"We have to look at the companies of the Tianhai family as a whole. Yamauchi said, "When analyzing strategy, you should look at it this way. Do you know any information about Musashino?"

"Hi. Satoshi Iwata immediately replied, "There has been a recent round of expansion over there, recruiting a lot of industry veterans, and it also has a deep cooperative relationship with a certain oriental country. ”

In fact, Satoshi Iwata didn't know much about this matter.

But Musashino approached Nintendo before and wanted to ask if he could adapt the manga story of the Pokemon special.

Unlike the anime version, the manga story of the special part is actually closer to the world view of the game, and to some extent, the story of the special part is even more realistic to it.

Nintendo vetoed the other party's proposal at the time, because the Pokemon animation was originally aimed at young audiences, and at this time, a comic adaptation of the comic that was relatively "black and deep" suddenly appeared, which would definitely cause confusion to the audience.

Perhaps other companies would definitely choose to agree, but Nintendo, based on its own strategic arrangement, vetoed the other party's proposal. But it's precisely for this reason that Satoshi Iwata also learned a little about Musashino's situation, and found that he is now one of the best bosses in the industry - the current animation company is becoming an "animation foundry", and Musashino Animation is one of the few clubs that has the confidence to pay for animation by itself.

"Browser games are just a test of the waters. I don't think they expected the popularity of this game. But after that, I'm afraid it's the main event. Yamauchi pondered, "The Internet can really make money......

Nintendo also engaged in the Internet back then, but Yamauchi Pu was scared of the pit, which was a loss of billions or tens of billions of yen!

However, when the Internet came to Senxia's hands, it turned out to be a money-making sweetheart.

I can't figure it out, I don't understand.

Is it that I don't understand, or is the world changing too fast?

It's a pity that Nintendo's grand strategy can't be changed, and some things may not be so easy to do.

"But most of the other game makers who make online games lose money...... "Satoshi Iwata said something more subtle.

There were a lot of copycat "Hero Tracks" games in the Lighthouse Country before, what heroes XX, or XX tracks and the like, but there is no doubt that all these games have hit the streets, and many game manufacturers have lost all their money.

On the contrary, it is not good that Karp is idling.

Oh, Capcom didn't engage in the Internet, they launched some paid DLC on DC-P "Resident Evil" and other games, these DLC allowed players to change various dresses for their characters, which really made them a lot of money.

"Because they didn't make it to the good times. ”

The reason is very simple, the Matthew effect of games like "Hero's Trajectory" is obvious, and the current market is small, and only one can live.

If it's an RPG or something, it's actually pretty good - can you live well without watching other people's "Genesis"?

Nintendo is actually more concerned about NGC's sales now, and its concern for the Order of the Phoenix and Senxia is actually worried about the impact of DC-P's strategy on NGC.

But in reality, Nintendo does not see the other side as an opponent.

It's not that I look down on them, but the positioning between the two sides is different.

The general view of the current mud bombing society is "if you want to play a big game, go to PS2, if you want to play online games or games with Internet connection, go to DCP", and if you look at it this way, Nintendo's target is actually more PS2.

Especially after Sony took the initiative to compare with DC-P, it invisibly raised the other party - this is like the comparison between the fruit initiative and the mobile phone of the rice company, and the latter's reputation and status have been invisibly improved.

Nintendo and the Order of the Phoenix have different strategic goals, but Nintendo and the Order of the Phoenix have a lot in common, the biggest point is that the most powerful of both sides is the first party, and the third party itself can only be used as a supplement. There are a lot of third-party games on DC-P, but some of these third-party games are simply so-called indie games, and they don't even have physical versions of the game, so they only publish them online, and the power of the third party is completely incomparable to that of the first party.

Therefore, the reason why Nintendo keeps an eye on the Order of the Phoenix is that what it wants to know is the strategy of the other party, and if the other party becomes its opponent, how Nintendo should counteract.

"They're going to have to make a big move. Based on Musashino's situation, Yamauchi concluded, "It should be a big project or something, and the goal should be an online game...... Well, the deeper kind, so they shouldn't have the energy to care about us anymore. ”

With one less competitor, there is only Sony on the road ahead.

Yamauchi thinks that NGC's wave is stable.

......

Many arcade games in the Japanese factory are very interesting.,For example, the Three Kingdoms War.,Good game.。

In addition, I recommend a wave of mystery of the human wolf village, a galgame-like werewolf killing story, a male protagonist with such a high emotional intelligence, which has been too rare recently233~

Finally, in fact, with today's technology, if you have the technology, you can really 3D print the figure you want......
