As a wealthy person with conscience and morality, Catherine now thinks of another way to make money... Oh, it's to fool... Well, no, it's deception... It's also wrong, it should be... a product to entertain the public.

Although the sed screen seems to be not very good at present, it can still be used to replace the current LED screen.

Catherine is targeting the handheld industry.

The previous generation of handheld consoles used LED screens. Although this kind of LED light is good, battery life is always a problem. The handheld console can only last for three hours at most... and the result will be a tragedy caused by running out of power.

Although the sales of handheld consoles are good, it is rare to see people sitting on the street with them to play with them. The poor battery life is a very important reason.

But if you replace the current sed screen, it will be different. Although sed only has monochrome, it is completely compatible with games on the previous generation of handheld consoles. What's more, each pixel of the sed screen only has the original LED light.

The pixel size of the screen is one quarter of the size, so the picture can be made more detailed than before.

...Of course, due to technical limitations, the thickness of the new handheld console cannot be said to be smaller than the original one. In a sense, if the handheld console is made with an SED screen, it will even be thicker than the original one...

…That’s a veritable brick machine.

But what are you afraid of?

Catherine didn't care about that.

Our product may be silly, big, dark and thick, but it’s easy to use, right?

Besides, our product is only about the same weight as an iPad, right? It’s not big in size, at least portability... uh... shouldn’t be a problem... "What if Huanwei is another product?"

Catherine looked at the sed board in her hand and couldn't help but think of another product that was once popular in China - electronic pets.

Yes, what Catherine was thinking of was the legendary electronic pet.

If you develop an electronic pet yourself, it would definitely be great, right?

This is what Catherine thinks now.

"Elsa, what do you think about us developing an electronic pet?"

Catherine asked.

"Electronic pet? What is that?" Elsa obviously felt that Catherine's words had no meaning.

"Uh... a toy, an electronic toy. Or a video game. A training-type video game. For example, raising a chicken or something, and then slowly raising it."

Catherine explained this.

"In other words... it's a virtual pet?"

"It can also be understood this way."

Many people have played with electronic pets, such as Tamagotchi, which are relatively famous among electronic pets.

In the "first year of the Tamagotchi", that is, 1996, the most famous electronic pet named "Tamagoko" was born, which led to a series of electronic pet craze.

Compared with real pets, electronic pets are more convenient to "carry around", easy to raise and will not stain the carpets and sofas at home. More importantly, they do not have to bear too much responsibility. Even if they are raised to death, they only need "

Restart".

It can be said that this is a very perfect existence.

The "tamago" in "tamagoko" is the transliteration of Japanese egg, and the whole name of "tamagoko" means "watch-style egg".

In Japan alone, Tamagotchi has sold more than 45 million units. It is impossible for Catherine not to be tempted by such profits.

"But... will this kind of thing become popular?" Elsa seemed to think it was not reliable.

"Why not?" Catherine asked strangely.

"Although many people may like this product at first, what happens if the novelty is gone?"

This is indeed a problem. Maybe many people will be interested in this electronic pet at first, but even with the Golden Dragon battery, such ordinary cats and dogs cannot cope with Americans. For Americans, they need

A more dynamic existence.

So what is better?

"Maybe a dinosaur?" Elsa asked.

no,no,no.

Although it is good to think, this kind of product is not what Catherine needs.

Catherine's idea came from Digimon, or Digimon.

Yes, an electronic pet similar to "Ajimon" is what Catherine is thinking about.

Since you want to raise them, then raise some incredible ones and some powerful ones.

"We can fictionalize some relatively powerful creatures. These creatures are not only powerful, but also give people a great... sense of accomplishment in raising them."

One by one, that is the legendary Digimon Machine.

Catherine's thoughts gradually deepened, and she felt more and more that her thoughts were good.

And even if sales are not good in the United States, it can still make money in Asia-Pacific regions such as Japan.

Americans keep a lot of pets, because many Americans have single-family houses, so they can keep pets.

But in a place like Japan, that's not necessarily the case.

For Americans, if it is a gorgeous Digimon, this fantasy creature may also be able to give them a series of hobbies and so on.

It seems to be a good way to cultivate Americans' aesthetic taste through such means.

The historical Tyrannosaurus Rex was an electronic pet launched by Bandai in 1997. The Tyrannosaurus Rex was positioned as an electronic pet for boys to play with, and added elements such as evolution and battle. Bandai also derived the Tyrannosaurus Rex from the

The Digimon series is a cross-platform product. There are two types: the educational machine and the adventure machine. One is similar to a development game, while the other adds elements of an adventure game.

"It sounds good...but can we really make such a product?"

"Yes, yes, but...since it is a pet, a pet that can only live for 12 hours is probably not very useful, right?" Catherine felt guilty.

Of course it is possible to make such a Tyrannosaurus machine. In this regard, the current z80 microcontroller can be used. With the current technology, although it cannot be palm-sized, it is completely possible to make it as big as an iPhone.

-If the screen and battery department allow it.

But the problem still lies in...battery life.

If the SED screen is replaced and the power consumption is reduced as much as possible, the "life" of an electronic pet is probably only 12 hours. When the time is up, this guy will have to go to meet God in tragedy.

Therefore, this problem is always a headache.

If the battery life problem is solved and the legendary "Golden Dragon Battery" is available, so that your pet can last for nnnn years, it will be perfect.

But unfortunately, as of now, that seems somewhat unlikely.

The current situation is that the product produced by Catherine will definitely be a brick that can only be used for 12 hours.

...Without long battery life, electronic pets will naturally be useless.

"But just being able to keep pets doesn't make people feel... um... a bit monotonous?"

Elsa's consideration has to be said to be a problem.

Especially if you want to make an electronic pet now, the size is not small, so it is difficult to carry. If there is a reason to attract people to buy it at this time, that would be fine, but the problem is that it is not when

, there are such products.

So, this is a question. "Well... what if it is linked with a home computer?" That should be enough, right?

According to Catherine's idea, she was planning to make a Digimon machine that could be linked to a home computer.

"We can first launch a game made on a home console. For example, we can create a fantasy world on a home console and let the virtual pets we raise have adventures on it and accumulate experience.

Cultivate pets. On the other hand, if there is no home machine, we can still take our own small pets to continue to raise them. If there are two machines, we can also use the two machines to cultivate each other's pets.

Fighting...this seems good, right?"

Catherine said this.

"But I'm afraid it's too late now, isn't it? Isn't our nimbus game console going to be launched in January next year? If a new feature is temporarily added at this time, won't it cause unnecessary problems?"

"Well……"

It seems that even if this idea is feasible, it will have to wait until the next generation of game consoles to be possible.

And this kind of product has never appeared before in history.

Although there used to be "Pocket Monsters", or the "Pokemon" series, the games in this series were played on portable game consoles such as the GBA. Of course, the smartphones that followed the NDs

There are also all kinds of electronic pets, which is not bad - but this is the 21st century.

Even the GB handheld console, according to Catherine's estimation, will take at least 8 to 10 years to create. If it were any faster, it would be impossible.

Otherwise, it would also be good to directly develop a gb handheld console that can have adventure functions.

But now it seems that it is not possible.

So Catherine chose to settle for the next best thing.

After all, if a big man can only keep a pixel-like pet... then it really doesn't make sense...

"Hey, let's do it step by step..."

At least the battery must make a huge improvement, otherwise it will be difficult to support it for a long time with the current dry batteries...

"No matter what... let's let Blizzard and the others do some research first..."

Battery life is a must. If a person is in love with his little pet, but then finds that his product suddenly runs out of power, isn't this a scam?

So judging from the current situation, Catherine's electronic pet strategy... can only be taken slowly.
