Chapter 299: The fewer the words, the bigger the matter.

In the United States, many industry insiders are celebrating their success.

This is especially true for small game companies that have previously suffered from the 'persecution' of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment.

They don't think they're developing a bad game; they just think they're being persecuted.

They were developing smoothly, but then suddenly they were shattered by a devastating attack from Yuxing Electronics Entertainment.

The news that Yuxing Electronics Entertainment will have to release the source code of their game console is fantastic.

Under such circumstances, they could all immediately develop games for the Youxing Electronic Entertainment console without any further restrictions.

They can go on a rampage, producing a whole bunch of garbage games to flood the game consoles of Youxing Electronic Entertainment.

Riding this wave of opportunity, they may be poised for a resurgence.

Those small game companies that had previously dissolved are slowly starting to revive.

However, before the regulations are fully finalized, no one dares to mess with Youxing Electronic Entertainment.

Youxing Electronic Entertainment now boasts a super-powerful team of lawyers.

The US government is no match for them, but dealing with ordinary commercial companies like these is a piece of cake.

These small companies, in particular, can be bankrupted instantly if they are sued even slightly.

The struggle of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment is not over yet. They are still trying their best to fight against the implementation of the new regulations through their network of connections and their own team of lawyers, seemingly intending to resist desperately.

The more hard-working Yuxing Electronic Entertainment becomes, the happier those American game companies are.

On the same day, Lierda announced a promotional price reduction on the games in its new game console, with a 10% discount nationwide.

Redfruit also seized the opportunity to heavily promote their newly developed Redfruit 1 game console, which boasts superior 32-bit graphics performance and is even stronger than Surui Electronics' PN2 game console on paper.

They also promised that all third-party manufacturers who joined them would not be charged any licensing fees in the first year, and would only be charged 30% of the licensing fee after one year.

This move has also won the favor of many American game companies, and some of the emerging American game companies have begun to prepare to expand their territory on the new game console.

As for the game consoles from Yuxing Electronics Entertainment? Sorry, we are no longer planning to develop them.

Developing games on such consoles is destined to be unprofitable. The government has already approved the piracy of those four consoles, so developing games on them would be foolish. Moreover, game development has now reached a point where storage capacity is often hundreds of megabytes. The SFC, which relied on external special cartridges, could only achieve a maximum capacity of 100 megabytes, which is gradually becoming insufficient to meet the needs of game developers.

As a company from the same country as Yusei Electronics Entertainment, Su Rui Electronics, Hayakawa Ueto still felt sorry for Takeyusei.

He felt that Zhu Youxing was a very talented person, but unfortunately he was too conspicuous, which led to the United States being the first to target him.

If it weren't for Youxing Electronics Entertainment charging ahead, it would probably have been Su Rui Electronics that was dealt with sooner or later.

He was currently considering how to facilitate the acquisition of Youxing Electronic Entertainment should Zhu Youxing suffer a setback. He suggested that Su Rui Electronics take the lead in acquiring Youxing Electronic Entertainment, a company with many high-quality game developers. If they were all brought in, Su Rui Electronics' game development capabilities would greatly increase.

But it's strange.

Even though Yusei Electronics Entertainment's future looks bleak, its main game producers have not wavered at all. Instead, they continue to firmly follow Yusei and develop games, even if it means working overtime to make a quick buck from the four game consoles in the last few days.

It seems that these game producers are truly loyal to Yusei Electronics Entertainment. This shows that Yusei himself has a certain personal charisma, which can attract outstanding people to follow him and not be easily swayed.

However, as Youxing Electronic Entertainment gradually declines, it's only a matter of time before these people leave.

You have to try your best to recruit a few of these outstanding game developers. Even if you can't acquire the company, it's still very profitable to recruit a few high-quality game producers.

Under such circumstances, almost everyone in the industry believed that Yuxing Electronic Entertainment had no future.

However, they failed to notice something else: apart from the fact that Youxing Electronic Entertainment's own game development team remained unmoved, the other third-party game companies that had previously cooperated well with Youxing Electronic Entertainment also showed no reaction.

Some people actually found these companies and were ready to conduct interviews.

However, the responses they received were all "no comment," and they would not disclose any of their company's future plans.

This response drew ridicule, with many believing that these companies had benefited too much from Youxing Electronics Entertainment and were unwilling to change their attitude easily. They argued that such companies, unable to keep up with the times, would eventually be eliminated and should not be bothered.

And so, time gradually brought us to the summer of 1998.

With the lawsuit, which lasted for more than half a year, settled, the new US regulations will officially take effect in just two or three days.

Everyone is eagerly watching as the new regulations are implemented, and how Yuxing Electronic Entertainment will meet its end in the United States.

"In three days, Youxing Electronic Entertainment will become history, and a new era will belong to us!"

Some people celebrated, some were watching the drama unfold, and others remained worried. Naturally, those who were worried were people like Tukarev, who had a good relationship with Zhuyouxing.

Three days later, the Ministry of Justice officially issued a new document, and a supplementary regulation specifically targeting Youxing Electronic Entertainment came into effect at midnight.

American companies have long been annoyed by Youxing Electronics Entertainment. As soon as midnight struck, several small game studios immediately released their own high-quality knock-off games, which would also be available on four fully open-source game consoles. This behavior was indeed disgusting to Youxing Electronics Entertainment.

These companies are laughing smugly and shamelessly proclaiming the arrival of a new era.

Hayakawa Ueto, who had been closely monitoring the situation, suddenly seemed to feel a sense of relief, but also a faint sense of loss.

Is this the end for this competitor?

It's truly heartbreaking.

But this is good, because it means their game will finally have a chance to succeed.

Hayakawa Ueto picked up his phone and tried several times to dial Takeyusei's number. Because of their previous collaboration on the engine, they had each other's contact information, but given their competitive relationship, it was impossible for him to call the other party casually.

But after thinking it over for a long time, he decided to wait. At this moment, Zhu Youxing was probably in a very bad mood. He would wait two more days, then contact this 'former rival' properly, comfort him, and see if he could win him over.

However, at that moment, Zhu Youxing kept staring at the computer screen. When midnight arrived in the United States, which was 2 p.m. in Japan, Zhu Youxing immediately opened the backend of his own global website, clicked the synchronization button on a webpage that had been prepared, and then a brand new pop-up window appeared on the global website in the next second.

"The latest handheld game console from Yusei Electronics Entertainment has been officially announced: the GBA, which will be released soon."

In addition to this very prominent pop-up window, there is another notification screen that reads: "The Game Star Electronic Entertainment Global Direct will be broadcast live online for the first time, and we will announce even more important new information to everyone."

Looking at the new webpage he had just synced, Zhu Youxing's lips curled into a slight smile.

This should be considered a case of the fewer words, the bigger the issue, right?

Chapter 300 Don't be afraid, you won't buy.

Yusei Electronics Entertainment announced its new game console without any warning.

People who don't frequently visit the Yusei website would never notice it.

This release was quite sudden, coinciding perfectly with the moment the new US regulations were issued.

Anyone with eyes can see that this is definitely aimed at the new US regulations.

But should it still be called the GB series?

GBA? That must be a completely new version that's an upgrade from GBC?

However, if it's just an upgrade, it's probably easy to crack.

However, unlike GB and GBC, cracking GBA could potentially lead to legal trouble.

Because US rules can't cover everything, if they really did that, it could really push people to their limits.

The US government simply wants to make more money and then give its own people a little boost.

They are not willing to do things like draining the pond to catch all the fish.

As industry insiders, they immediately checked out the new news on the official website of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment as soon as they learned about it, eager to see what the new console was all about.

Of course, hardcore gamers also immediately went to the official website of Yuxing Electronics Entertainment to check for the latest game console news.

GBA, with a 32-bit main chip, will be able to run richer details such as color, content, and sound effects.

Oh, it's just a performance improvement.

Wait a minute?

32 people?

Using a 32-bit chip in a handheld console?

That's quite a big leap!

Is your computer still 16-bit?

Previously, both GBC and GB were still at the 8-bit level, but this time it jumped to 32-bit, which is somewhat unexpected.

However, this doesn't seem to elicit much of a reaction from them.

"It seems that Yuxing Electronics Entertainment is planning to launch a new handheld console and avoid the new US strategy. However, simply improving the performance may not be enough to convince most players to switch to a new game console. After all, players are not stupid. The GB and GBC can now play all kinds of games for free without any legal risks. With the GBA, you have to start paying to play games. These are two different outcomes."

Online, people have begun to carefully study the performance of the GBA.

This research led them to the astonishing discovery that this thing was actually significantly more powerful than the SFC currently sold by Yuxing Electronics Entertainment.

After all, it's a 32-bit CPU, which is like a different dimension. However, the SFC still has a slight edge in terms of graphics, but that seems to be less important now.

Suddenly, some American game companies began to sense that something was wrong.

They began anxiously checking out the following information about the GBA.

The introduction states that the GBA will be seamlessly backward compatible with all games from the GB and GBC, and while maintaining compatibility, it will also improve the graphics, which were not particularly good before, making those games more visually appealing.

This is pretty much standard practice for Yuxing Electronics Entertainment, ensuring compatibility with older games and allowing players to seamlessly switch between them. They don't need to change to new cartridges; they can easily enjoy the games using only the old ones.

So far, all the page descriptions only describe the game console's performance and graphics, but people still haven't seen what the game console really looks like.

This started to make these guys scratch their heads; they were eager to know what the game console actually looked like.

Next, we'll discuss some of the games that launched on the GBA.

The first game to be released was Metroid Fusion, which is considered the fourth installment in the Metroid series. The third game had already been released on the Super Famicom and sold millions of copies.

This time, Metroroth once again took on a major responsibility, ensuring the smooth operation of the new handheld device.

Following Metrorod, there's a new IP called WarioWare: Big Slide.

Wario was originally a villain in the Super Mario World: Six Coins game on the Super FC.

Surprisingly, Yusei Electronics Entertainment actually created a new game specifically for a villain.

The most striking feature in the game's description is a brand-new term: gyroscope.

The game cartridge will have a built-in miniature gyroscope, which will help the game have a completely new gameplay.

Players can play games by shaking the handheld console, adding a whole new dimension to the gameplay that was originally limited to a single screen.

The game's developers stared at the description in surprise.
