This level of queuing is actually quite good, mainly because today is a weekday and the number of tourists is relatively small. If you come here on a weekend, I'm afraid each mini-game will take an hour to queue, and the final boss challenge will form a very long queue.
For Mario Kart and Yoshi's Train, the queue length is even longer than that of the boss challenge.
After all, not everyone is willing to collect three golden keys and then take on the boss challenge.
Moreover, the boss challenge is a game exclusive to the bracelet. Without the bracelet, although you can still play the mini-game of collecting golden keys, there is no way to record the collected keys.
This has also become a threshold for the boss challenge. Tourists who just come to join in the fun generally will not buy a bracelet and will not be eligible to participate in the boss challenge.
This is also a preferential treatment given by the park to users who purchase wristbands.
Otherwise, there will be no privileges, and it would be a loss to buy such a bracelet for 4,200 yen.
"By the way, have some candy." Looking at the team in front, Yushan Heren couldn't help but let out a long sigh and said.
"Sugar? Where is the sugar?" Upon hearing that, Tsuchiya Mai couldn't help but blink slightly.
On the other side, Yushan Kazuto took out a handful of "Cosmic Cube" candies from his pocket.
"When did you buy the candy, Senior Kazuto?" Looking at the candy that Kazuto Yushan created like magic, Tsuchima couldn't help but ask.
"I got it from Sanae this morning." Yushan Heren shrugged and said helplessly.
The goods that Toumori Sanae had just replenished in Nara yesterday were taken away by Hayama Kazuto.
"Hey, Kazuto, you and Sanae have a really good relationship!" On the other side, Fujinomiya Ningzi couldn't help but say.
"What's wrong? Eating can't stop you from talking." Upon hearing this, Yushan Heren couldn't help but blink slightly and said.
On the other side, Tsuchiya Mai couldn't help but blink her beautiful eyes.
Doma Yui has seen Kazuto Yuyama eat this kind of "cosmic cube" candy many times, and every time, Kazuto Yuyama said that he got it from Sanae Touma.
However, according to Tsuchimura's observation, Touma Sanae herself had basically never eaten this kind of candy.
Thinking of this, Tsuchima couldn't help but wonder if it was because Uyama Kazuto liked to eat this kind of candy that Touma Sanae brought it with her.
Chapter 2537 Kuba Castle
After waiting in line for more than ten minutes, it was finally Yushan and his companions' turn to enter the castle and participate in the game.
Place the bracelet on the huge iron lock at the castle gate. When the iron lock detects that there are more than three golden keys in the bracelet, the castle gate will slowly open to allow tourists to pass through.
After entering the castle, you have officially arrived at the final challenge area.
However, Yushan and his four companions still had to wait until the previous group of tourists completed the challenge before they could start the game. They just let them in in advance.
However, just by standing in the castle and listening to the laughter of the previous group of tourists, several people could imagine how fun this game was.
The game time is not too long, at least not as long as the time it takes to fight a boss in a Mario game.
After the previous group of tourists finished their tour, Yushan and a few others entered.
As soon as you enter, you will see a huge screen with the shadows of Yushan and four other people on the screen.
However, this shadow is not directly illuminated, but projected through the motion capture equipment on site.
Yushan Kazuto tried waving his arms, and the shadow on the screen began to move immediately. It can be seen that the entire motion capture system is still very sensitive.
However, there are problems. One shortcoming of this system is that it does not capture tourists' feet accurately.
Therefore, every time a tourist jumps up, the figure displayed on the screen often becomes shorter, as if the lower part of the calf has been amputated.
Once Yushan and the other three were in position, the boss challenge officially began.
On the screen, monsters keep falling from the top of the screen. All tourists need to do is jump their bodies and use their shadows to defeat the monsters.
I have to say that this form of game is quite novel.
Although strictly speaking, this is just a somatosensory game with a different skin, the way of projecting shadows on the screen makes people marvel that Nintendo is indeed a genius developer.
In this case, the player's immersive experience reaches an unprecedented level.
This is much more advanced than ordinary motion sensing games that display your hands on the screen.
Several people present couldn't help but laugh wildly while they were having fun.
Although most of the time, Yushan and others were just waving their arms casually, but in this interactive experience, such simple waving of arms seemed particularly interesting.
After the whole game was over, Yushan and his friends still felt a little unsatisfied.
However, even if they went out and lined up again, they would not be able to play for the second time because the three keys had already been used to open the castle gate.
If you want to play again, you have to collect the three golden keys again.
However, in each mini-game of collecting golden keys, you can only collect one golden key at most in one day.
In other words, if you want to play it again, you have to come to Osaka International Studios again.
I have to say that the other party's business is really calculated to the extreme.
……
"What are we going to do next?" As they walked out of the castle, Tsuchima Mai couldn't help but ask.
The game just now really made her linger, but it was a pity that she couldn't play it multiple times a day.
Now, Yui Doma urgently needs to play some other games to change her mood. Otherwise, when she leaves Osaka International Studios, she will probably still be thinking about the boss challenge she just had.
"Next, let's go to Mario Kart, buy some souvenirs, and then leave Mario Park." After thinking for a while, Yushan Heren said.
Although Mario Park is the main destination of this visit to Osaka International Studios, the other parks cannot be omitted!
After all, there are the privileges of Fast Ticket 4, and the four activities that don’t require queuing cannot be wasted.
Unfortunately, the fast ticket privilege has no effect in the Mario Park, otherwise, Yushan and his friends would not have to wait in such a long line just now. They will have to queue again when they go to play Mario Kart later.
"Mario Kart? Driving a kart by yourself?" After thinking for a while, Tsuchima Mai couldn't help but blink her beautiful eyes and said.
"Then it probably isn't that free." Upon hearing that, Yushan Heren couldn't help but shrugged.
Rides like this are all timed. If you are driving a go-kart yourself, you can drive slower if you want to play for a while longer. This is obviously contrary to the principles of ride management.
Although Kazuto Yuyama had never played Mario Kart, he felt that the other party should have fixed the karts on the track and provided them for play.
"Okay." Hearing this, Tsuchiya couldn't help but blink slightly.
She is also a loyal fan of Mario Kart. She has played every Mario Kart game and is still full of expectations for the Mario Kart project.
Now that she heard that Mario Kart was not operated by himself, Tsuchima felt a little disappointed.
But this is just a little disappointment. Yui Doma is still very much looking forward to Mario Kart.
……
If you want to play Mario Kart, the first thing you need to do is queue up in the huge Bowser's Castle.
Although the castle where Yushan and his companions completed the boss challenge was also Bowser's Castle, it was much smaller than the castle where Mario Kart was located.
The park also knows that
As Mario Kart is the main attraction in Mario Park, the queuing problem is definitely quite serious.
Therefore, on the way to the queue, Mario Park added a lot of small surprises, and the whole queue process turned into a process of discovering Easter eggs, which surprised many Nintendo fans.
"Senior Ningzi, look quickly, there's a picture of Princess Peach over there!"
Kazuto Hayama and Megumi Kato were fine, but two Mario fans, Yui Doma and Ningzi Fujinomiya, felt that this place was simply heaven.
Even when they attended the Nintendo headquarters, neither of them had such a feeling, because the Nintendo headquarters as a whole seemed a little too "plain".
Although there are some gaming elements, they seem a bit coy and not very obvious.
But it is obviously different here. Almost every corner of the Mario Park is filled with Mario elements.
For the two of them, this is simply the most fun part of the game. Every time they go to a place, they can find different surprises.
"You can watch, but don't make a fuss, okay?" Looking at Doma Yui and Fujinomiya Ningzi, Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but speak.
Hearing this, Tsuchima Mai couldn't help but glance at Yushan Kazuto, then looked around, and then said: "Aren't the others screaming in surprise too?"
Chapter 2538 Mario Kart
Hearing this, Yuyama Kazuto couldn't help but blink slightly. What Doma Mai said was not wrong. Many other tourists were also screaming in surprise. In comparison, the voices of Doma Mai and Fujinomiya Ningzi were relatively small.
However, in this relatively closed castle environment, listening to the screams coming from all around, Yushan and others inexplicably had a feeling of "the monkeys on both sides of the river crying non-stop" and could not help but blink slightly.
……
The queue time for Mario Kart was slightly shorter than the estimated time shown on the Osaka International Studios app. In just half an hour, it was already the time for Yushan and a few others to queue.
Before entering the game, the official also gave everyone a certain red hat.
This is Mario's classic duckbill cap, although it's only half a cap. But for Mario fans, wearing a half-cap and sitting in a Mario Kart is another great improvement in the sense of immersion.
In addition, this duckbill half hat is also an important prop for the game.
Because it is an AR experience, players need to wear a pair of AR glasses after getting on the car.
But glasses will inevitably leak a little light and slip. Once this happens, it will be a huge decline in the user experience.
Therefore, Nintendo chose to use a duckbill half hat to block out light.
On the other hand, this half-cap can also be used as a clasp for glasses.
"Get on the kart, buckle the guardrail, then take out the glasses from under the kart steering wheel and buckle them on the cap!"
After listening to the staff's explanation, Yushan and others chose to do as they were told.
I have to say, after putting on the glasses, the whole hat and glasses combined together give me a kind of nervgear feeling.
"Why do I feel that my glasses are a little translucent?" Doma couldn't help but ask as he was sitting behind Yushan Kazuto.
"It hasn't started playing yet, so it's normal for light to be visible." Upon hearing this, Yushan Heren shrugged.
It is very easy to make it completely light-proof, but if that happens, it will no longer be AR glasses.
"Is that so?" Upon hearing this, Tsuchima couldn't help but blink slightly.
"But I didn't expect it to be a track kart." On the other side, Fujinomiya Ningzi couldn't help but sigh and said.
"It's normal. If it were an ordinary go-kart, everyone's lap speed would be different and the playing time would also be different, so it would be difficult to coordinate." Yushan Heren said.
Another key point is the area of Osaka International Studios.
Although Osaka International Studios is not small, with so many parks, the area allocated to Mario is actually very small.
If a go-kart track were to be built, I'm afraid more than half of the entire Mario Park would be occupied by the track.
After all, you need to consider safety performance, straight line length, total track length, overtaking space and so on.
Like this Mario track in Bowser's Castle, there is actually no room for overtaking.
Well, rail cars don’t need to overtake or anything like that.
"That's right." Upon hearing this, Fujinomiya Ningzi couldn't help but say.
However, as a loyal player of Mario Kart, Ningko Fujinomiya still very much hopes to be able to drive a Mario Kart like she does in Mario Kart.
However, due to the limitations of the actual situation, this time, Fujinomiya Ningzi had no choice but to compromise.
Once everyone has put on their glasses and the park's prompts sound in their ears, the fun officially begins.
However, Yushan Kazuto feels that the overall effect is not very outstanding. Perhaps it is a visual feast for Mario fans, but when Yushan Kazuto plays the game, he does not feel as immersive as before.
This effect is slightly inferior to some of the more sophisticated 5D experience movies, not to mention the fully immersive experience like NervGear.
For Mario Kart fans, it might be a very good experience, but for Kazuto Yuyama, he just felt a little regretful for waiting in line for so long.
After the tour, Yushan Heren couldn't help but sigh. Fortunately, although some time was wasted, at least it was not to the extent that Yushan Heren had predicted.
"What's wrong? Are you not having fun?" Noticing the expression on Yushan Kazuto's face, Kato Megumi couldn't help but ask.
"No, no." Upon hearing this, Yushan Heren hurriedly said.
"I saw you seemed to sigh." Kato Megumi said.
"What's wrong, Senior Kazuto, isn't it fun?" On the other side, Tsuchima Mai also spoke.
"I just feel a little disappointed. It's not as interesting as the previous boss challenges, and the AR effect is only average." Yushan Kazuto shrugged and said.
If I have to say, Yushan Kazuto thinks the difference between the two mini-games is that one is a game that even passers-by will find very interesting, while the other is a game that is more for fans.
Hearing this, Tsuchiya couldn't help but blink slightly.
