Tokyo Video Game Tycoon.

Yuxing Electronic Entertainment clearly devoured most of the early racing market.

However, Suri Electronics dared not give up on the racing category easily, fearing that it would fall behind, so it has been releasing sequels, although the investment has not been particularly large.

Following the announcement of a series of first-party games from Surrey Electronics, several other exclusive or timed exclusive titles were released by partners.

In order to attract some powerful game development studios to develop games for them, Surui Electronics paid a considerable sum of money to ensure that their games would be temporarily or permanently exclusive to them.

Those at the top, including Hayakawa Ueto, believed this was a way to increase the appeal of the Suri Electronics game console to some extent.

Finally, Surui Electronics announced today's highlight, which is also the ultimate product that has been kept under wraps for half the day: the long-rumored new game console.

Chapter 1040 The Performance of the New Machine

On stage, Yoichi Okawa was dressed in a white lab coat that looked like a scientist's, giving him the air of a mad scientist.

In his hand, a square-shaped game console appeared.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am here to solemnly announce the latest game console from Surui Electronics: codename PN, without any serial number. This also signifies that everything will be a new beginning, everything will start from scratch, and all challenges will also begin from scratch."

In an instant, all the spotlights shone on the game console in Yoichi Okawa's hand, and then countless cameras clicked incessantly as reporters snapped the latest photos and sent them back to their posts as quickly as possible, hoping to publish the news as soon as possible.

Online, related news and discussions appeared almost immediately. It was clear that some online news outlets had already prepared their articles, just waiting for the moment when Surui Electronics made the announcement to be released. However, there were no pictures or related videos yet, so they were just using an article to reserve a spot.

The players' discussions became quite heated.

"See? I've been saying for a long time that Surui Electronics should launch its own next-generation game console."

"But didn't Surui Electronics also follow in the footsteps of Youxing Electronics Entertainment and launch a game console with an AI chip before?"

"That launch was obviously quite rushed, even the name was rushed, it was called PSN. Normally, game consoles from Su Rui Electronics would start with PN, what the heck is PSN? This is strong evidence that it was rushed out without being prepared."

"That's right. It was also proven that the game console was a response strategy made by Youxing Electronics Entertainment in response to the launch of a new game console. If Su Rui Electronics did not respond, they might fall behind. Su Rui Electronics did not have enough technical reserves at the time, so they could only launch a rather hasty product, which was also called a half-generation upgrade version."

"Is there anything special about this game console? But I have to say, the design is pretty good."

In Yoichi Okawa's hands was a square, flat game console, with a predominantly black and purple color scheme.

Then, there seemed to be several breathing lights flashing at several points along the edge of the game console.

"I'm so happy to be here to show you our latest game console. To be honest, seeing this console finally being released has already moved me to tears, because I've been waiting for a console like this for a very long time." Yoichi Okawa said, his face showing emotion and a hint of tears welling up in his eyes.

He then placed the game console on a platform in front of him.

Soon after Surui Electronics unveiled the appearance of its latest game console, their official website also released detailed machine specifications for the console.

The machine's performance is approximately 1.2 times that of the latest home video game console from Yuxing Electronics Entertainment.

If we were to make a comparison, it would be roughly equivalent to the performance of a 3080 graphics card plus a 12700 CPU before the Bamboo Star travels through time.

In that world, such a configuration and performance would cost around seven or eight thousand yuan.

However, the average speed of semiconductor development in this world is much faster than in Zhuyouxing's previous life. In this world, the performance of such chips is no longer particularly amazing; it can only be described as average. It is just right for use in game consoles, not too expensive, and can meet the high-quality requirements of many games.

Then there's the world's unique AI computing chip, which can calculate the movement trajectory of NPCs in GTA4 for two or three hours without repeating itself.

But none of these are the main points.

"I think all of you gamers are very knowledgeable about computer performance, and you all have a deep understanding of game console performance. But what I want to say is that there may still be some things you don't fully understand. And now, I'm going to personally show you a unique feature of our latest game console, which we call: 'Multiverse World'."

A diverse world?

At this very moment, Zhu Youxing was also watching the live stream of Su Rui Electronics.

Now that the other party has returned to the position of a competitor, Zhu Youxing naturally needs to learn more about them.

The term "multiverse" is quite unique. Since it's called that, it must be related to a multiverse. What technology is related to a multiverse? Or what technology can embody the characteristics of a multiverse?

Zhu Youxing felt like he had thought of something, but he couldn't quite remember it for the time being.

Yoichi Okawa had already connected the game console and projected the system interface onto the large screen behind him.

"This time, we have completely rewritten the underlying logic of our entire operating system in order to make this game console adapt to what I call the 'multiverse world'. Please see below."

Yoichi Okawa picked up a game controller, then, as if remembering something, he smiled and raised his hand, saying, "Oh right, I forgot to tell you all about this."

He was holding a brand-new controller, which had a significantly different overall appearance from the previous ones.

Previously, PN's game controllers all had an indescribable awkward feel when held.

In the words of industry insiders, it lacks the support of ergonomics.

Zhu Youxing came from another world, and he was very particular about the ergonomically designed controller.

Because in his world, the XBOX controller is the best.

How good is it? So good that the appearance of the controller is almost impeccable, making it difficult to improve upon it further or make it more comfortable for players to hold.

Therefore, in this world, Zhuyouxing also spent a lot of money to research and develop the best controller in the world.

In previous hardware design competitions, the Oily Electronics Enthusiast's controller was recognized as one of the best designs of the year, earning its place in the annals of world-class product design.

In the previous life of the Bamboo Star, the XBOX controller cost more than 100 million US dollars to achieve its most perfect form.

The design and cost alone reached over 100 million US dollars, which was probably only something Microsoft could afford at the time.

However, it is precisely because of Microsoft that players are able to experience such a great controller, and it has inspired other game manufacturers to understand how important it is to provide players with an excellent controller.

If you look closely, you'll find that the controller in Yoichi Okawa's hand is very similar in appearance to the standard controller currently used by Yusei Electronics.

Chapter 1041 A Technology That Can Be Read Seamlessly

"We've invested a tremendous amount of money to create this controller that's comfortable for players. I'm very honored to be showcasing it. Of course, this is just one of its features. Another feature, as you can see on the back of the controller, is that we've added several new buttons. These buttons will make it easier for players to perform more complex operations and enhance the gaming experience!"

Isn't this... just the same trick as the Elite controller?

Zhu Youxing immediately recognized the design pattern of this controller.

Yuxing Electronics Entertainment also launched an elite controller, but its sales were not particularly good. The controller is indeed elite, but because of its more complex design and higher cost, the price is also much higher than that of ordinary controllers, so the average player would definitely not consider it.

However, it seems that Surrey Electronics is now planning to democratize this elite controller design.

That's... rather unexpected, but it's a good strategy.

"Alright, enough about the controllers, let's show you our latest game console."

Yoichi Okawa took the controller and entered the system's main interface.

"As you can see, the smoothness of the entire interface has been greatly improved. This is thanks to our use of our own exclusive latest high-definition protocol. If you want to experience even better picture quality, then experiencing it on a higher-level video protocol is definitely the best."

Is it HDMI 2.1?

Of course, there is no such thing as HDMI 2.1 in this world. It is a standard term used in the original world, and this world naturally has its own standards.

This is what Yoichi Okawa is talking about now.

This standard is only just beginning to become widespread in the world, and Yuxing Electronic Entertainment is clearly not prepared for it.

But Surui Electronics is different.

They are giants in the electronics industry, and they are also one of the standard setters in many industries.

They once had a fierce battle with Morgan Stanley over optical disc standards.

Surrey Electronics is pushing its own high-definition optical disc standard, and Morgan Group, in order to avoid losing market share, naturally has to support Surrey Electronics' competitor.

However, the competition between the two sides ultimately fizzled out due to the rapid development of flash memory chips, and no clear winner was ever determined.

Instead, Yuxing Electronics Entertainment picked up flash memory chips halfway through its journey, developed its own flash memory technology, and made a fortune.

All games that want to be played on Yuxing Electronic Entertainment's game consoles must use their flash memory chips. Yuxing Electronic Entertainment also profits a lot from this, essentially controlling the upstream and downstream production of the game industry without losing any of its profits.

Now, Surui Electronics' latest high-definition standard is clearly intended to take advantage of the situation and sell its other products.

It's like launching the PS5 while simultaneously promoting your own TV.

The audience members at the scene occasionally let out gasps of amazement.

After all, the visual effects experienced in person are much better than those shown in the live broadcast; the overall visual effect is indeed more vibrant and beautiful.

Some people have already started considering whether to upgrade their display devices.

But upon closer reflection, most people think it's unnecessary. With the current economic downturn, buying a game console to play games is fine, but spending more money to upgrade the display for a slight improvement in graphics is really not worthwhile.

However, the excellent image quality did leave a very deep impression on them and may influence their future product choices to some extent.

Yoichi Okawa had already navigated to one of the game options using the controller.

"This game console contains our upcoming latest Sun Knight title, which I call Time Travel."

"Our Sun Knight will embark on a journey through the torrent of time, traversing countless timelines that once possessed Sun Knights, to search for the slightest clues and to uncover the secrets of the world."

shuttle……

Zhu Youxing remembered.

He thought of the so-called impressive technologies that Surui Electronics might use.

On stage, Yoichi Okawa proudly declared, "Our latest Sun Knight: Time Travel is the best application of the latest technology on the latest game console, and I can say with great confidence that no other game will surpass us in the application of this technology for at least a year. And this new technology, we call it..."

Zhu Youxing muttered to himself in front of the live stream video.

Yoichi Okawa also uttered that name at the same time.

"Ultra-high speed memory read technology".

"As expected." Zhu Youxing looked as if he had just realized something.

Ultra-fast memory read speed.

That's a technology measured in GB per second.

This had already become popular in his world in the later period.

He remembered that before he traveled through time, hard drives with read/write speeds of 7GB per second or even higher were already commercially available.

The effect of such a hard drive is that it allows a game to switch scenes almost seamlessly.

For a long time in the past, apart from pre-loaded sandbox open-world games, most other games had very long loading times.

Early game consoles used mechanical hard drives.

Mechanical hard drives have an average read speed of only 50-100MB per second. At such a low read speed, game designers can only add some time to the game to load different worlds.

Some games go directly to the loading screen and then switch to the game scene after loading is complete; this is a standard operation for many games.
