I want to make a game

"President, are you sure?"

Okada Satoshi doesn't quite believe this. It's true that handheld consoles are a blue ocean, but home consoles are the foundation of the game industry. He doesn't believe that Liu Zhiyuan didn't launch his own home console in such a good environment. It's not like the Han Dynasty didn't exist.

The fact that MD technology was mastered by the Han Dynasty has long spread throughout the world.

"You don't need to worry about the home consoles of the Han Dynasty. Just focus on developing your handheld consoles."

Hiroshi Yamauchi didn't want to bring any other influence to Satoshi Okada. Nintendo was not afraid of anyone coming to the home console. The Han Dynasty dared to release a home console. He couldn't wish for it. This is Nintendo's territory.

"Okay, since the president won't let me take care of it, I will concentrate on developing the handheld console. However, I already have a rough idea of ​​the handheld console plan. Can you listen to it?"

Yamauchi Pu nodded and motioned for him to continue.

"President, in my opinion, the core of a handheld console is battery life. A handheld console without battery life cannot stand the test of the market. Atari's LYNX is an example. Although LYNX is the handheld console with the best technology, its sales volume is

It’s the worst.”

Hiroshi Yamauchi thought of this when he saw the failure of LYNX. This opinion was not brilliant.

"GB is technically the worst, but in the face of such a bad market situation, players still buy GB. In addition to our Nintendo signature, it is because GB is the handheld console with the longest battery life."

Okada Satoshi said to Hiroshi Yamauchi seriously.

"My idea is this. GB's subsequent research and development is to improve performance as much as possible while ensuring more than 40 hours of game time."

Hiroshi Yamauchi slowly said a sentence, and the answer to this sentence is what determines whether Satoshi Okada can really become the director of a film.

"What about a color screen? It takes 40 hours. Are you sure GB can make a color screen?"

Okada Satoshi shook his head seriously.

"No, no one can make a color screen based on 40 hours of game time, not even the Han Dynasty!"

He was sure of this. He was not an amateur. He knew very well how much power the color screen mode of the handheld device consumed.

"Don't say 40 hours. Handheld consoles with color screens rely on dry batteries and can never exceed double-digit gaming time. Liu Zhiyuan dares to make the new handheld console with a color screen better. I guarantee that today's Atari will be his tomorrow!

"

Yamauchi Hiroshi frowned.

"Have you ever considered the new Han Dynasty handheld model?"

Okada Satoshi understood the meaning of this sentence. He confidently picked up his notepad and started writing on it. Soon a sketch appeared on it.

"President, you see, if you want to achieve a handheld color screen and double-digit gaming time, the battery compartment must be very large. I don't know how the Han Dynasty will solve this problem, but no matter how they solve it, their elf

It will all become bloated.”

After Hiroshi Yamauchi read the sketch, Satoshi Okada continued.

"If it were just a little bloated in appearance, I wouldn't be convinced that the Han Dynasty didn't use color screens, but the key point is cost. How many batteries are needed to only support 10 hours of gaming? Atari failed here."

Although he kept saying that he was not afraid of Liu Zhiyuan, how could he not be afraid! He did not believe that Liu Zhiyuan could not see this fatal flaw. The Han Dynasty would never sell a color screen handheld machine!

"Then your plan is that GB's sequel will also be in black and white? Has it always been the case?"

Hiroshi Yamauchi really doesn't think black and white handheld consoles have a future. When LYNX was first promoted, it became the only one that could compete with the Han Dynasty. He has seen the power of color screens.

"No, the second generation GB must be black and white. There is no way to help it, but the third generation is not necessarily about the battery! We must solve the battery problem. Only by solving the battery problem can the handheld console become a color screen. I think Han

Dynasty is definitely developing in this direction now."

Although Okada Satoshi didn't want to say depressing words, he still had to remind Hiroshi Yamauchi and everyone present.

"If the Han Dynasty develops a battery suitable for color-screen handheld consoles before we do, it will be too difficult for us to regain the handheld console market."

Too difficult is a euphemism. If you want to win the favor of players, in addition to strong enough hardware, games are also very important. If the quality of Han Dynasty's games is very poor, he is not afraid, but who dares to say that the quality of Han Dynasty's games is poor? Then

At that time, Nintendo really didn't have the slightest chance.

"Contact Panasonic. The GB including the battery will be handed over to you, Minister Okada."

Hiroshi Yamauchi thought carefully and found that there was nothing wrong with Satoshi Okada's idea. Although the details needed to be further elaborated, the direction was right. That was enough. He could safely hand over GB to Satoshi Okada.

"Yes! I will definitely make GB the most powerful handheld console!"

Liu Zhiyuan, Yokoi Gunpei, wait and see how my GB defeats you!

Okada Satoshi was confidently preparing to team up with Panasonic to snipe the Pokémon, but what he didn't know was that Liu Zhiyuan had already begun to develop a new type of battery. Historically, PSP batteries were only used in game consoles for the first time in 2004.

It's 1989 now, a gap of more than 10 years, and Satoshi Okada can't come up with a PSP battery solution even if he wants to!

Hiroshi Yamauchi is a face-conscious person. He rarely takes back what he says, even if he knows he is wrong, but at the same time he is also a person who can put down his dignity. The market for handheld consoles is too big for him to ignore it.

, Nintendo’s plan to restart GB quickly spread.

"Humph, old man!"

Nakayama Hayao snorted disdainfully.

"Nintendo first lost Minoru Arakawa, the advocate of handheld consoles, and then lost Gunpei Yokoi, the founder, and now it's still fighting with Sony. How can Hiroshi Yamauchi be confident that he can develop a new GB? Nintendo has that technology.

Is it? It would be ridiculous to release another brick next year.”

Hiroshi Yamauchi has always looked down on him. Why hasn't he always looked down on Nintendo and its technology? Sega can beat Nintendo by 100 steps. If Capcom hadn't recently developed a new baseboard, his Sega would be the most technologically advanced company in the gaming industry!

Talking about games? Are Sega’s games comparable to Nintendo’s? Apart from a Super Mario game, what else does Nintendo have? Isn’t it just relying on those outsiders? He doesn’t even bother to do it!

"Have we finalized the plan for our handheld console?"

He used to look down on handheld consoles, but seeing Liu Zhiyuan making a lot of money, he started to take a liking to it. This market couldn't just be given up, and it couldn't just be handed over to the Han Dynasty. No matter what, Sega would get a piece of the pie.

"Okay, these are several models. President, please take a look."

Nakayama Hayao couldn't help but frown when he saw it.

"Don't you think it's a little too bulky?"

If compared with Nintendo's GB, the appearance of Sega's unnamed handheld console can still be said to be good, but compared with Liu Zhiyuan's Elf, it is a bit far behind. This should not be at Sega's level.
