Miyamoto: "Mario" is not suitable for virtual reality

Nintendo's father of Mario, Miyamoto, also appeared at Apple's iPhone product launch conference and announced the new work Super Mario Run. In his interview with USA Today, in addition to talking about bluegrass music and Star Wars, the most important thing is the virtual reality version of Mario, but Miyamoto said that it will not appear in a short time. .

Miyamoto likes innovation and is willing to accept new technology, but he explains that Nintendo insists on the concept of "playing with family and friends." He also said that Nintendo hopes that players can play for a long time, but "it is difficult to achieve this in VR", which means that it is difficult for players to wear their heads for entertainment for a long time. It can be understood that Miyamoto wants you to play in the TV for a long time.

Some people may say that most of the Mario games are single-player games, but after thinking about them, they seem to find that there are some multiplayer games in the Mario game series. Miyamoto hopes that family and friends can sit together and play games together in a social environment. He opposes the practice of playing games by himself.

Or this is just an excuse for Nintendo to find out about the future of virtual reality, because a businessman will act when he sees the opportunity. However, Japanese people are more worried than Westerners because of the loss of their face or loss of credibility because they cannot fulfill their promises. Just as weather forecasters often say "I think" and "I think." If this is the case, considering the uncertainty of the future of virtual reality, it is also difficult to blame Nintendo, after all, they have planted a big fight on the Virtual Boy.

Mario's 2D horizontal version of the game may not be useful in virtual reality. But since this is Nintendo, they should have a way to create a unique 3DVR version of Mario. If there is a VR version of Mario in the next few years, what kind of game do you think will be there? Which Nintendo game do you want to see in the virtual reality version? The first person VR version of "Galaxy Warrior" may be quite good.
