Pokemon Go is great, but you are separated from the elf by the phone screen.
"Pokémon Dream GO": Red all over the world overnight
At the just-concluded 2016 E3 electronic game show, Nintendo faintly looked at the small partners around it to launch VR or AR related products, hardware devices, and software games, such as Sony, Microsoft, EA, etc., Nintendo is indifferent.
Nintendo also said last week that VR technology is not yet mature, and the next-generation game console NX will not consider support for the time being. In addition, Nintendo President Iwata Satoshi said: "We have been paying attention to VR technology, but we should also pay attention to whether (VR) is suitable for our host products designed for long-term use, taking into account the feelings of parents wearing VR eye masks for children."
In addition, Miyamoto also expressed concern about the use of immersive technology such as VR in the gaming experience.
Maybe Nintendo is not a fan of VR games, but this company is very motivated by AR games.
In September last year, Japan's Pokomon Company released a realistic enhancement game "Pokemon GO" at the new business strategy conference. The game was launched by Pokémon, Nintendo and Niantic.
In July of this year, the game was finally launched. On the day of the launch, the game quickly became popular. People from all over the world, regardless of region, regardless of age or age, were enchanted.
However, due to the influx of traffic, the server crashed several times, so the company Niantic, which provides technical support for Pokemon Go, blocked some players in the region according to the latitude and longitude, including most of China. It is expected that the lock zone will be opened later. However, if you are waiting for the national service, don't wait, because the official has confirmed that "Pokémon: GO" applies to all countries except China, South Korea, North Korea, Cuba, Iran, Myanmar and Sudan. (Hey, why is Korea the same as us?)
How hot is "Pokémon GO"? Let's take a look at the evidence below.
Heaven announced that "Pokémon Dream GO" has only accumulated more than 7.5 million downloads in the United States, Austria and New Zealand. "Pokémon Dream GO" became the champion of the three-store App Store free list after going online. According to media reports, the first day of installation of the game on Android devices is between 50,000 and 100,000.
In addition, according to foreign media statistics, "Pokemon GO" in the United States, only on Apple devices, the daily income is 1.6 million US dollars.
Nintendo as a game publisher, after the launch of "Pokémon: GO", its share price rose 10% last Friday, and this week it soared 25%, the market value increased by more than 7 billion US dollars.
"Pokémon GO": Everyone knows AR
If you are a straight male digital enthusiast, you will of course know and be able to distinguish between what is VR and what is AR. You can even look forward to what changes these two technologies will bring to our lives in the future.
However, for many ordinary people, they don't understand what VR and AR mean, and they don't understand how these technologies will affect their daily lives. Even if you explain these techniques to them in an hour, many of the white students will still be in science fiction novels like some unreachable advanced technologies.
However, the arrival of "Pokémon Go" has instantly made everyone (down to 9 years old to 99 years old) understand what AR is (augmented reality) and can accept and utilize it within one second. This new technology. "Pokémon Dream GO" makes AR technology vivid and flexible in front of users, it is no longer a pale concept hanging on the horizon.
AR technology has been widely used in the private sector, and it really has to be a success for "Pokémon GO", because before that, although there were AR games, they failed to enter everyone's life. It became AR. A guide for the popularization of technology.
If we remember correctly, Nintendo launched the AR game in 2012, called "AR Game", which is a game created by Nintendo 3DS and a set of cards.
"AR Game" is a game in which an AR card is captured by a camera. By using "AR technology" (virtual expansion technology), the content captured by the camera appears in another form in the screen. Let the stage and character image of the game appear in the picture taken, just as they appear in the real world. Perhaps this game has been popular with players on 3DS, but it is also limited to 3DS players.
In the AR mobile game, "Ingress" is also an outstanding game. It is a realistic enhanced multiplayer game launched by Niantic in 2011. It can also be regarded as a simple punching game. Players can play through the game. The Portal discovered by the players knows each other's surroundings and is more active in the outdoors to get to know a new world.
However, although the game is relatively successful, it still fails to let the world know about AR technology like "Pokémon GO".
HoloLens is the ultimate stage of AR
AR games like "Pokémon GO" changed our view of the game, and it was completely out of time and space with the previous mobile game. Connecting reality is the biggest attraction of AR games. Playing games, you don’t have to be at home, you can operate the keyboard and mouse with a computer, or take a mobile phone and a tablet. We can also relive the children’s games and play hide and seek in the park. Grab the elf), chasing an elf on the way home.
We admit that "Pokémon GO" has achieved global success, and we also recognize that "Pokémon GO" makes AR technology close to the people and become a household name. However, in the face of some analysis, mobile AR is the direction of AR technology development, and we do not agree with this.
In our opinion, the mobile game AR is only the initial stage of AR, and the ultimate stage of AR or a more mature stage should be a product such as Microsoft Hololen or Magic Leap.
First of all, let's first look at why other AR games don't have fire, but "Pokémon GO" is on fire? You may need to recognize one thing. Everyone playing "Pokémon Go" is looking at Pikachu, Jenny Turtle and other elves, instead of going to AR technology.
Pokemon is an IP game that has been in existence for more than 20 years. It has already had a large number of players in the world. Especially in Japan and Europe and America, Pokemon fans are countless, many of them are basically A Pokemon game won't miss it.
Since 996, Pokemon (also known as "Pokemon" before July of this year) has almost all entertainment platforms across games, animation, movies, comics, TV shows, radio dramas, and e-sports. As of 2015, the Pokemon series has created more than 4.6 trillion yen, or $57.66 billion in revenue.
The Pokemon IP alone is enough to attract the global hardcore fans. In addition, the game is now on the mobile platform, and it can attract many users who have long heard of Pokemon, but there is no dedicated game console, such as me.
So, the player is playing the Pokemon IP, instead of experiencing the AR, in exchange for another game, I am afraid there is no such effect.
There is always a lack of playing AR game experience on mobile phones.
AR mobile game is not real enough
The little partner said that it feels like the elf is being picked up by P, and the PS trace is very obvious. As a fan of hardcore, I can't refute it.
Indeed, in the process of playing "Pokémon Go", we also feel that the terminal display is not strong, and those elves seem to be simply superimposed on the screen. To say it is straightforward, to do a three-dimensional Pikachu, and then when you go to a specific location, open your phone's camera, Pikachu's animation is superimposed on the camera camera. So, this is a long way from the stereoscopic, realistic elves we imagined.
If you don't use a mobile phone, but use Hololens or Magic Leap to play "Pokémon Go", we will not see an animal that P goes up, but it is real enough to make it difficult for you to distinguish between virtual and reality. It's like a cat that you pulled out on your way home.
How much "real" the augmented reality of Hololen and Magic Leap is, look at the pictures and videos directly.
By the way, compare the "Pokémon Go":
Niantic CEO John Hanke may also be aware of the "authenticity" issue, so he hinted that it will enhance the game's augmented reality, and said that the game's development team has been suggested to let the game land on the Microsoft AR (MR) device HoloLens. He said that this improvement should be very interesting.
You are separated from the elf by a mobile phone.
When playing an AR game like "Pokémon", we need to stare at the phone to see the elf. However, in augmented reality games, a better gaming experience should be that you don't need to see the sprite through the phone screen. In addition, if we want to catch the elves, it is best not to operate through the phone screen. In the AR game, the phone is like a piece of glass between us and the elf.
If we use the Hololen or Magic Leap device to play AR games, we can remove the "obstacles" of the phone.
The cameras and sensors of devices like Hololens are able to sense the surrounding environment. When there are elves nearby, the eyes will inform us, and the Hololens screen will allow our eyes to see the elves directly in the real world. The phone screen can only be seen.
In addition, AR equipment such as Hololens, the optical rendering of the screen is dozens of times the screen of the mobile phone, which increases the realism of the AR game, rather than being locked in a small range like a mobile phone screen.
AR games should be liberating hands
"Pokémon" requires us to hold the phone in both hands. Imagine, in reality, when you catch a bunny in the garden, you don't need to hold a cell phone to catch it. AR equipment such as Hololens or Magic Leap can free your hands. Not only that, but we will also be able to experience the use of "hands" to catch elves, and even hold the elves in the palm of your hand. These are the realms that mobile game AR can't reach, but this is the real AR game, isn't it?
