There's really something wrong with this online game plan

Chapter 409 Switch
1 month 1 day.

The first day of the new year.

Peria's press conference, zoomed in.

A person who has never appeared at a Peria press conference before, instead of the president of Peria, announced the upcoming new work of Peria.

The restart of two IP works that existed in the era of eight-bit computers!
A new work of Peria's first party ace studio!
There are also a bunch of messy and relatively small exclusive games.

Some of these games will be released this month, while others will be released in February.

In short, the release time almost covers January and February.

Plus, it was just yesterday.

Another host manufacturer, Hardcore, also held a press conference, and also released several new works, as well as a reboot of the classic IP.

The power of the two mainframe manufacturers that have been in business for many years has been fully revealed.

In the eyes of many players, the two sides are really fighting between gods...

Overseas players watched the two press conferences in a row, and they were very excited to see the restarts of those old IPs.

Peria and Hardcore, all of a sudden, the limelight is the same.

As for the host of Forest Studio.

It was squeezed so that there was no sound at all...

Many overseas players have forgotten such a thing.

After all, in the past two days, the two major host manufacturers have taken turns to appear on the stage, and there are a bunch of classic works that have been restarted, which is so attractive...

Their background is really too strong.

Even Reflecta, which has been in the limelight recently, has no sound at this meeting.

but.

Overseas players forgot.

Domestic players still remember that Linmu Studio will hold a press conference soon.

Just ...

They are a little pessimistic...

"Forget it, it's obviously a sniper, let's talk about it later."

"That's right, I just browsed NeoGAF, the largest overseas game discussion website, and it's all about Peria and Hardcore... I searched for a long time before I found a post from Linmu Studio."

"Don't, you have hung your appetite for so long, you tell me to change the time? Don't."

"Yeah, believe in Linmu Studio, rush!"

"The current situation is really not good."

"It's really not good, but Lin Yao probably can't do anything about it. They have worked hard to market for a month, and many players will be dissatisfied with the announcement in the future, and after they dove everyone this time, it is estimated that it will be difficult to have such enthusiasm. , although it has been sniped now, but the heat is getting higher and higher..."

"The high popularity has its uses. Now that the mainframe is announced, if it cannot be sold, it is not a failure!"

"It's so sad..."

"..."

Many players advised Linmu Studio to change the date.

But this is only relative.

More players don't pay attention to overseas news at all.

Forest Studio's one-month marketing has already raised their expectations to the highest level.

They are now very eager to see the announcement of the mainframe by Forest Studio, and they are willing to believe in Forest Studio.

If the forest workshop is pigeonholed, it is estimated that they will be sprayed to death by them...

This is also the reason why Ban Zexiu and Deding Linmu Studio will not change the date.

of course.

Lin Yao didn't change either.

The day.

The countdown to the press conference is still high.

And that night, after midnight.

The day on the countdown has also become a specific time——

12: 00.

……

1 month 2 number.

10:20 am.

In Lin Mu Studio, the atmosphere was a little tense, even a little low.

Partly because of the host, the staff who need to work overtime during the holidays can't help but look at Lin Yao's position worriedly when they pass by Lin Yao's position.

But Lin Yao is not here today...

Most of the upper echelons are absent.

Early in the morning.

They all went to the conference site.

And at the same time.

Not far from Linmu Studio, a certain community a few kilometers away.

Meng Caiyi opened the Vaporwave game platform, and then clicked into the live broadcast jump window hanging on the homepage.

at this time.

The live broadcast of Linmu Studio's press conference has already started, and the countdown is written in the upper left corner, and there is still more than an hour left.

The live broadcast of this press conference is not only available on the Vaporwave game platform, but also on major live broadcast platforms.

I heard that many game media and players were also invited to the scene.

In short, it can be seen.

Linmu Studio attaches great importance to this press conference, or the products to be released at the conference.

But Lin Mu Studio paid more attention to it.

Now that Meng Caiyi turned on the live broadcast, the more he wanted to sigh.

"...Since it's so important, let's change the date."

Looking at the live broadcast, he couldn't help but complain.

Meng Caiyi is an overseas student and a veteran console player, compared to most other players.

He has a more intuitive feeling for the discussions caused by the announcement of new works by the two mainframe manufacturers Peria and Hardcore this time.

It's really overwhelming...

The restart of the classic IP masterpiece, coupled with the large-scale publicity, has already made many European and American players climax in place.

In this situation.

Not to mention the new host.

Even if it is Reflecta, they are all younger brothers, and everyone is a similar host. The childhood bonus is really too buggy.

At this time, who will touch the mold?

Yes.

Linmu Studio has strong game production capabilities.

But the new IP is really not enough for the opponent to fight.

Unless there is some innovation against the sky.

But the console thing, that's it. If it is really so innovative, the other two consoles have already innovated.

"...At first, I thought that there would be a host manufacturer in China, and I could still buy a domestic host."

Thinking of this, Meng Caiyi sighed, and shook her head: "It seems that even if I buy it, I guess it won't be long... If the sales volume doesn't meet the target, I'm going to have to cut the budget and cut the game. Tsk, I'm confident. You can’t do that either! Why bother!”

The more Meng Caiyi thought about it, the angrier she became.

Hate that iron is not steel!
Although he respects Linmu Studio as a man, he chooses to be tough at a time like this...

But business is not a play, and Linmu Studio is too impulsive...

He couldn't even bear to watch the live broadcast.

After all, after the momentary brilliance of the press conference, the mainframe of Linmu Studio may be about to fall, just like fireworks...

This is too messing with his mentality as a console player...

But Meng Caiyi moved the mouse cursor to the cross and stayed there for a long time, but finally failed to click it.

12 o'clock in Japan.

Peria headquarters.

"Hansawa-kun, this is top-notch sake...You did a good job at the press conference."

Deputy He handed a goblet to Hideka Banze, and at the same time praised the other party's performance at the press conference yesterday.

The press conference of Peria yesterday was very successful!

Even if you put aside the matter of sniping.

The public opinion caused by Peria's new work alone.

That made Fufu He very happy.

So he specially opened a bottle of good wine, and rewarded the more likable hero in front of him.

"It's all thanks to the president."

Ban Zexiu bowed his head and took the cup respectfully, then raised his head and said with a smile, "Is this the Miao Hua Lan Qu brewed by the most traditional brewing method 'Shengyu Brewing'?"

"Ah."

Deputy He nodded, poured himself a glass, and drank it down.

Banzawa Hideaki drank it all down, and flattered, "It's a wonderful flower orchid song, mellow and sweet, good!"

"of course."

Fu Fu He smiled when he heard this, and then picked up the wine bottle again.

Ban Zexiuhe was so flattered that he quickly bent down and lowered the cup.

Deputy He poured another half a glass of wine for Ban Zexiuhe, and then suddenly said: "Speaking of which, the other party's press conference is about to start, right? Open it and have a look. Although there is no suspense, I still want to see them It feels like a good talking point if you boast about your self-confidence."

"Yes."

Ban Zexiu and Wen Yan immediately put down their glasses and went to open the overseas live broadcast of Linmu Studio.

"..."

Deputy He also put down the wine bottle, then picked up the glass and looked at the projection screen on the left side of the office.

……

Press conference site, backstage.

"Are you nervous?" Mu Wanqing looked at Lin Yao beside her and asked.

"……not nervous."

Lin Yao took a deep breath, then patted her chest lightly, and shook her head.

"Sister, are you nervous?"

Zhu Nianqiao suddenly appeared out of nowhere and asked exactly the same question.

Lin Yao shook her head lightly and continued, "Don't be nervous."

"Lin Yao, don't be nervous."

At this time.

Zhong Xiu and Bao Liangzhe pushed the door open and came in, and that was all they said.

Lin Yao glared at the two of them, and said angrily, "I'm not nervous! There's no end to this, the host will give me..."

Say it.

She directly took over the host from Bao Liangzhe, took another deep breath, and left the backstage.

Ready to play.

……

11 points.

The scene of the press conference, the audience.

There are still 4 minutes before the press conference starts.

Game media reporter Cheng Kangjian raised his wrist to check the time.

"It's about to start." The photographer next to him suddenly said.

"Well, this is the first time for the development conference of Linmu Studio, and I'm looking forward to it now." Cheng Kangjian thought about being idle for a few minutes, so he chatted with the other party.

"Yes, their size is not small, but it is also the first time for me to participate in their press conference."

"It's just that the occasion isn't right... It's really tough to insist on announcing the mainframe in this situation... I don't know if it's the last time."

"Actually, we can't be 100% sure it's the host, right?"

"What else can it be, 100% confirmed."

Cheng Kangjian shook his head, and then changed the topic: "Speaking of which, the game logo for the last day of today, Linmu Studio, hasn't been announced yet, right?"

"Hey, it will definitely be announced on the last day. Just wait. I'm even more curious now, what is that shelf-like thing on the stage?"

The photographer pointed to something like a shelf at the top of the stage.

It doesn't look like a product, but it's conspicuous.

Hearing this, Cheng Kangjian turned his head to look at the stage, but at this time, the time had come to 11:59, he ignored the things that seemed to be on the stage, and said, "It's about to start, you are ready..."

He hasn't finished speaking yet.

Time is up.

The time came to twelve o'clock.

The lights on the stage immediately dimmed.

Then, the screen lights up.

See the screen go dark.

Cheng Kangjian thought that the classic patter title was about to appear.

But unexpected.

What appeared on the screen was not the opening title of Pata.

The melodious music sounded slowly.

then.

A letter Z slowly emerged, and then a simple long sword traversed the entire letter.

It was the first game logo announced by Linmu Studio.

But this time it's not just a Z character, but the entire game name also slowly emerged.

A man with an arched back, a knife and a shield stands on a hill, overlooking the distance.

The cover, the name all appear - "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" (The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild)

Although many media and players in the field did not know what happened.

But when he suddenly saw a game screen that was completely different from the previous painting style of Linmu Studio, he still exclaimed.

And their exclamation didn't stop.

The next game logo appears.

Five human silhouettes are holding hands, and the antique font is gradually getting bigger - "fire".

Then, the next LOGO appeared.

30 days before.

All the game logos announced by Linmu Studio appeared one by one, but unlike before, this time Linmu Studio no longer hid them, but exposed the game cover and the full name of the game.

And that's slow to say.

But in fact, lOGO appeared very fast.

After one is played, immediately switch to the next one.

The previous ones are all new games.

But back.

There are familiar games.

Various game icons appear.

And at the end, the icons of the No.30 games were announced.

A line of artistic words, with special effects of splashing ink - "Splatoon" Splatoon.

Everyone in the venue was dazzled and hadn't reacted yet.

Accompanied by the last game logo appears.

Sudden.

Bright red, taking up the entire screen.

Two minimalist squares appear in the center, sliding up and down, just like installation.

click.

Then keep it parallel.

Only this time, under the two minimalist squares, there is an extra word - switch.

There was a snap.

Finally, the players in the venue reacted.

"OHH..."

Although most of the people who came were worried about the future of the mainframe of Linmu Studio.

But with the appearance of so many games, the atmosphere has indeed been mobilized...

And this wave of cheers has not yet fallen.

Followed by.

Bigger cheers sounded!
Because on the stage, the spotlight suddenly turned on.

A pretty girl came out from the backstage.

The players at the press conference certainly knew who she was.

"Hello everyone."

Lin Yao put her hands behind her back, as if she was hiding something, she walked slowly to the front of the stage, then smiled sweetly and said, "It's nice to see you all."

"ohh!!"

The audience in the audience temporarily ignored the host, and burst into astonishing cheers.

She has a nice smile...

Lin Yao kept smiling and waited quietly. After the cheers were a little less loud, she continued: "I won't continue with the polite words. In fact, everyone should have guessed what we are going to announce when you come here. You may It will be strange, I just came here empty-handed, is it inappropriate... what about the product? Shouldn't the product be announced first at this time?"

There was a little laughter from below.

Cheng Kangjian also smiled and had to say.

She is really a girl who is easy to be attracted to...

"Let me buy a pass here first."

Lin Yao stood on the stage with her hands behind her back, and her pretty round oval face smiled again: "Before announcing the product, first of all, I would like to ask you a question. Do you usually... play games?"

"Play!"

Immediately there was an enthusiastic response from below.

"I play too, but sometimes...you understand? It's too inconvenient to play games."

"After all, the PC is so big, I can't carry it around every day, and sometimes, the time to sit in front of the computer is limited."

"When I commute to get off work every day, I really want to play games to pass the time."

"Sometimes I wonder, is there a way to play games on the commute?"

"I believe that many players have the same idea as me, right? When I usually go out, I also want to play games."

The players in the audience heard Lin Yao's words.

Finally, turn your attention back to the host.

Because something doesn't feel right to them.

"Anyway, I really want to play games when commuting, and play games when I go out."

"Like now."

"Like this moment."

Lin Yao showed a longing expression, and continued: "However, you can't just play on the road, it will become a handheld... I think it would be great if you can switch at any time."

"Well, a game console that can be switched at any time."

"That is... switch."

Lin Yao spit out a word with a smile on her face.

All the players reacted and passed Lin Yao in amazement, looking at the screen behind her.

"Correct."

Lin Yao made a sound, which attracted everyone's attention again.

She raised her hand suddenly, took out the switch that had been hidden behind her all the time, and inserted the switch into the base of the main unit in front of her under the astonished gazes of all the audience.

Accompanied by a snap.

"That's right, what I said just now is our host—Switch."

"This is... switch."

Lin Yao took a step back, then stood pretty on the stage, smiling like a flower.

And the moment she stepped back.

The handheld is installed on the base, and it is directly switched to host mode.

on the screen.

The game screen of Breath of the Wild suddenly appeared!

Player: "!!!!"

The moment the game screen appears!
The cheers sounded like they were about to knock the roof off!
broke out!
Cheng Kangjian looked at the screen and listened to the deafening cheers, dumbfounded.

After a while.

He snapped back to his senses and turned his head.

Without his command, the cameraman immediately pointed the camera at Lin Yao.

Click.

The screen freezes.

One of the most classic scenes in the history of games in this world is here to stay...

　Sorry, it's so late from get off work...so painful
