Video games are one of the important ways to entertain people in the new era. However, the Japanese Zhu Yuxing who traveled to a parallel world found that the game industry in this world was extremely sluggish, and it seemed that it had never emerged. So Zhu Yuxing decided to bring the ninth art to the world. "Mom, Super Mario 3 is out! This is my most wanted Christmas present!"

===375 Creative meeting about handheld===(None Edited)

  Actually, Zhu Yuxing felt that he didn't have many choices, and his greatest wish was to leave no regrets.

  Then the best choice may only be to continue to improve the performance of the game machine.

  Fortunately, I still have a lot of creative ideas for excellent games.

  Just taking it out to the handheld can lead to a sales increase again and again.

  If it wasn't for this kind of confidence, Zhu Youxing probably wouldn't take such a risk.

  On the same day, Zhu Yuxing first announced his ideas to the company's engineering development department.

  At the same time, the news of this new handheld was also made public to the person in charge of the company's core development team.

  They were not surprised by the news of this new development plan.

  Because according to the time of GBA's release, the development of the next-generation handheld should also begin.

  However, they were a little surprised by Zhu Yuxing's idea.

  This time Zhu Yuxing wants to make another big leap in game performance.

  In order to explain to everyone the new handheld they envisioned, everyone also held an internal discussion meeting.

  "My initial idea was to launch a handheld computer with an upper and lower screen, one of the screens can use the latest touch technology, so that our products will become fashionable products of electronic technology. As for the performance, I also plan to improve it again. , the standard is to run video games that are comparable to the GS1's visual performance."

  After Takeyusei finished, Airi Hayasawa immediately raised his hand.

  "Zhuyou... President, isn't this span a bit too big? Also, why is it dual-screen?"

  "Dual screen is just an idea of ​​mine, because I have some ideas that fit with this mechanism. As for the span you mentioned, it does seem to be very large, but this is the first time I hope to make one that can satisfy as much as possible. A game console that gamers have all appetites."

  Hayasawa Airi immediately said: "The cost is probably not cheap, and if we were to sell it at the price of the handheld, it would be a loss business."

  "Sell the console at a loss, and then Earning money back from games is my definition of this handheld. At the same time, I also hope that this handheld can continue to operate for more than five years. In this way, with Moore's Law, the performance of the processor will gradually increase. If it is doubled many times, then the cost of our game consoles can be reduced all the time. In the early stage, the sales of game consoles may be a loss-making business, but in the later stage, it is not at all."

  A game console that is ready to be sold for more than five years?

  Everyone thought seriously.

  The lifespan of their two game consoles, SFC and GB, was about four years before.

  Now GBA will slowly become obsolete over time, replaced by sooner or later.

  So now making a handheld console with performance comparable to home consoles does sound great, and game developers of handheld consoles will have more room to play.

  Recently, some handheld game developers have gradually begun to complain about the weak performance of the GBA handheld.

  The performance of game consoles in this world is developing too fast, and Zhu Yuxing has accelerated the pace of soaring performance of this game console.

  And game developers, like players, will gradually no longer be satisfied with the development of current game console performance.

  They also hope that they can have more development space when developing games.

  The current handheld market is more like a platform for orthodox console development teams to practice.

  When the experience of game developers matures, they will immediately jump out of the handheld development team and join the console development team to develop console games with stronger game performance.

  If a handheld with explosive performance really comes out, then there is actually a whole new choice for game developers.

  They will be equally welcome.

  "My assumptions are probably these. Now let's see if you have any other opinions. We will solve it during the internal meeting. First of all, I want to say that my assumptions are not 100% accurate. If If you can find some reason enough to convince me, it is also possible to make some changes to the architecture of this handheld, and I welcome all of you to brainstorm."

  At this time, a development team leader raised his hand and said: "Then president, do we want to announce the news of this handheld development to our employees?"

  Zhu Yuxing nodded: "It's good to announce, the confidentiality regulations will keep them tight-lipped, I can trust our employees on this point. , if ordinary employees have any good ideas, they are willing to accept them."

  Everyone nodded.

  In fact, they are a little confused about this so-called dual-screen development.

  They haven't yet jumped out of the inherent rules of the console screen.

  If you can't take care of one screen, what kind of performance will the two screens look like?

  At the same time, they seem to have recovered somewhat.

  It turned out that the upgraded version of the previous GBSP handheld appearance was prepared for this.

  Layout a clamshell handheld in advance, and then launch a dual-screen game console under the clamshell.

  However, no one can say whether such a game machine can succeed or not.

  In fact, if this idea was proposed by the boss of an ordinary game company, it is estimated that everyone would think that it was a wild idea of ​​the boss of the company, and it was completely nonsense.

  This is completely contrary to mainstream thinking.

  However, Zhu Yuxing is the god of games. Since it is his idea, it should be quite correct.

  Zhu Youxing did not say anything completely, but gave everyone a time to think.

  Let them go back and think about the feasibility of such a thing.

  It's one thing for Takeyousei to come up with the idea at the beginning, but whether this dual-screen handheld is truly popular is another.

  Zhu Youxing even envisioned a plan for market research.

  If the handheld is really going to be distributed, it will be facing consumers in the future, and it is also necessary to conduct some market research in advance.

  However, the processor of a high-quality handheld computer can be studied in advance.

  This can be paralleled with the gameplay and design of the handheld.

  After the meeting, the engineering development team sent out tenders for several large processor manufacturers.

  This time is different.

  The performance of previous game consoles is relatively behind the technological development of this world.

  Then find a more versatile and more compatible processor is the best choice.

  In this case, it is enough to go directly to the company with the strongest processor production in the world.

  The processor price itself has also matured. They are also very welcome to purchase such relatively outdated products in large quantities. The unused production lines can be reused, and they can continue to be used to make a wave of money, and this old production line It is to occupy a production position, and the manpower does not need to consume too much, so why not do it.
