Tokyo Video Game Tycoon

  Chapter 1112 Thoughtful Developer

  Mickford has always been the fourth in the field of video games.

   There are three big mountains in front of it.

  The first one is Brown Entertainment, the second one is Surui Electronics, and the third one is also the largest one, far surpassing the Yuxing Electronics Entertainment several times of other game companies.

   But in the field of electronics industry, Mickford is not bad either.

  Myron Case has always been good at vision, and can clearly see the technological development route in the field of electronic technology in the future.

  If the smart phone didn't suddenly pop up a mechanical god-like facebook, Mickford would probably become the most powerful giant in the electronics field so far.

  It is stronger than the old electronics giant Surui Electronics.

  Myron Keith himself also has the stubbornness of a paranoid, and his pursuit of excellence in electronic products is also the secret of his success.

   This sentence is still popular today.

  Mikeford is synonymous with fashion and high-end in the field of electronic products.

  Facebook and several other electronic product companies are slightly inferior.

  facebook is synonymous with entertainment and rebellion.

  In the past so many years, if you are not a person who likes to play video games, the most preferred smartphone choice is Mickford's mobile phone.

  Facebook and Mike Fu's smartphone shipments are always on par every year.

   As Mickford's most important autumn conference, it is natural to announce their latest and most powerful electronic products.

The first release is the latest operating system of Mickford's family. This is an appetizer, and many new features are announced. This time, a game enhancement function is specially added to the system, so that video games can be played on the Mickford's platform. There is a better optimization effect.

   This is obviously another challenge to other game companies.

   Then came the release of some niche products of Mickford’s family, including their latest music player, and some of their water-testing smart devices, including smart watches.

The line of smart watches can indeed make a lot of money, but Mickford’s development is a bit late, Zhuyouxing has pointed out the direction for Bob in advance, and Facebook’s smart watches have been launched for two generations. Bian was released hastily.

  The next step is a device that combines virtual reality VR and augmented reality AR.

  Myron Case obviously wanted to regard this device as a daily wearable product for ordinary people, while Yuxing Electronic Entertainment only focused on playing games, which was relatively bulky.

This new product caused quite a stir among the people who watched the press conference. Before that, the Internet had already begun to speculate that Mi Kefu might develop a similar product, and some people vowed that once Mi Kefu launched this product, it would be It will directly sweep the entire market.

  Because Mike Fu is really good at building ecology.

   But the price is a bit daunting. The initial price is 1899 US dollars, which is more than twice as expensive as Mike Fu’s mobile phone. Needless to say, the performance is quite good, but the price is very discouraging.

   "When this thing is released, buy a few and let Airi study it." Zhu Youxing said, looking at the Mickford headset released on the screen.

  Hayazawa Airi nodded: "No problem, I am also very interested in this, should we make a similar one?"

   "There is no need to deliberately do things like social networking. Our main focus is games and entertainment. Social networking is not what our company is good at."

   "Okay, I understand." Airi Hayazawa understood in seconds.

  Zhu Youxing is not interested in too much participation in industries other than video games. Anyway, Youxing Electronic Entertainment still holds a large number of shares in Facebook, so leave this kind of research to them, and Youxing Electronic Entertainment can just collect the dividends from the industry.

  Youxing Electronic Entertainment only needs to make some games that can be adapted to this product.

At this time, the head of the Eighth Development Department, Usui Chizuru, suddenly had an idea and said: "President, I suddenly thought of some good games, a game that combines virtual reality and augmented reality, a kind of racing car in between. Somatosensory games, it just so happens that I am working with the engineering development department on a racing toy game that can be played with reality and games, and it can be seamlessly transplanted into this virtual reality.”

   Zhu Youxing immediately remembered a game he had seen before.

  Nintendo has developed a realistic racing toy game called Mario Kart LIVE.

Players need to buy a set of realistic Mario Kart toys. The toy is a palm-sized Mario Kart model, but there will be a camera on the model, which can be connected to the game console wirelessly, and then the player can communicate with the toy wirelessly through video games. Connect for a racing game close to augmented reality.

  At that time, Zhu Youxing was still very interested in this, but he never bought it to play, because the small rental house in his previous life did not allow him to do that.

  I'm heartbroken...

  Later, he still remembered that online players teased that the most expensive thing about this game was not the game itself, nor the toys, but the place to play the game, and they needed a big house...

   This configuration really dissuaded the vast majority of players.

  Zhu Youxing nodded and said: "This is indeed possible, but you don't need to invest too much money. In reality, most players don't necessarily have such a large entertainment space to play this kind of realistic racing toy game."

   "Eh...it seems to be true, I really haven't thought about this before." Usui Chizuru was a little embarrassed.

  He really ignored the player's play space, Zhu Youxing reminded him to realize it.

  His department is usually best at various racing games. Need for Speed, Mario Kart and later Forza Motorsports are all written by him.

Zhu Youxing added: "Playing racing games through VR is really interesting, but don't overemphasize adding one more toy that requires a lot of space to play, at most multiple steering wheels are enough, and I suggest that this steering wheel is the best. It is still possible to directly use the equipment of our game console itself, and try to avoid adding additional peripherals."

   One more peripheral will invisibly dissuade many players.

  Most players are not willing to buy an additional set of equipment to play a game.

Hayazawa Airi immediately said: "Then let's just make a mold directly, the kind that can be printed directly, and then buckle our handle directly into the mold, so that the gyroscope sensor function in the handle can work , How about realizing the steering wheel effect of a racing car?"

   "This is fine!" Usui Chizuru's eyes lit up.

   This is the most cost-effective way to play, and it is easier for players to accept.

Zhu Youxing didn't interfere any more, just let them study this kind of thing by themselves, and the details of the details don't need his too much influence now, what he needs is not a group of puppets, but a group of people who really have their own thoughts game developer.
