"Honey, I want to buy a mobile phone."

"Mobile phone? Don't you already have one?"

"Uh uh, this... This one is different from the previous ones. You can play the latest Mario games on this phone."

"Oh, I see. I've seen this advertisement too. You can buy it. Husband, you usually work so hard. If you just buy a mobile phone, it must be fine."

"My wife, you are so gentle and understanding!"

At the dinner table, the husband was overwhelmed with emotion, and the child Wentai beside him had his eyes shining.

"Dad, if you buy a new mobile phone, does it mean that your handheld can be eliminated for me?"

"I want to be a beautiful boy, there are all kinds of video game archives in my collection, even if I buy you a new one, I definitely can't give you the old one."

"Well, new ones are not bad..."

"Give me a good study, and then consider whether to buy it for you."

Wen Tai looked depressed, but he soon became happy again.

Dad bought a new game console, so is he afraid he won't be able to play it?

That night, my husband couldn't wait to buy the latest facebook mobile phone online, and also bought several bundled video games.

Unlike handhelds, all games on mobile phones only have digital versions, but the price and quantity are indeed cheap enough.

Moreover, old games such as FC and SFC are not just simple transplants, these games have also been deeply adapted according to the touch screen.

In Youxing Electronic Entertainment, there is a team of 200 people dedicated to doing this.

Because it is a digital version, even games from the FC era can be updated as soon as possible.

With good adaptation and sufficient game capacity, players are also willing to spend this money to buy some nostalgic games, forming a virtuous circle.

On Mi Kefu's side, the progress of game development is somewhat slow, and there are many obstacles and difficulties encountered.

The first is the issue of game development engines. Myron Keith has rich experience and vision in the field of electronic products, but it does not mean that he has any understanding of video games.

He only knows that there are a lot of high-quality games on handhelds that are also mobile devices.

As soon as Myron Keith opened his mouth to the recruited team, he wanted to develop a game quality that was at least as good as that of Su Rui Electronics' handheld.

But here comes the first problem, which is the engine.

Creating engines one by one from scratch is very complicated, and it cannot be done overnight, and the only easy-to-use engine on the market is from Youxing Electronics.

As a competitor, Myron Keith had to pay Youxing Electronic Entertainment a sum of money when he was about to develop a game with a lot of fanfare, which really made him uncomfortable.

Moreover, as a competitor, and a company of the size of Mickford, if he wants to obtain the authorization of Unreal Engine, he now needs to pay tens of millions of dollars a year, and a 10% commission on sales.

Myron Keith finally decided to develop the engine himself.

But that's the second question.

The development team he formed is only more than 200 people, and some of them have to disperse their energy to develop new engines. Of course, it is not a big problem if they only develop an engine with relatively simple functions.

But if you want to make a game that is not inferior to the quality of professional handhelds, this is not something that can be done in a short period of time.

But Myron Keith didn't want to study these things. He gave the team a death order. Don't worry about the salary. The price you need to pay is your hair and liver...

So the game development team under Mickford can only develop games and engines with pain and happiness.

Seeing the news that Myron Case was in a hurry to develop the game, Zhu Youxing's smile never restrained.

It seems that this guy with a rampage in the electronics industry doesn't particularly understand the difficulty of game development.

And the other party seems to have been led into a misunderstanding by himself, that is, he wants a game of sufficient quality, not an ordinary small game. Myron Case should continue to walk on this detour for at least a year. It is your own opportunity.

Leaving aside those non-gamer users for the time being, at least video gamer users, as long as they want to buy a mobile phone, they must try to make them think of Facebook's mobile phone at the first time.

Hold the position of core players first, and then win the favor of other users.

But now it seems that keeping the core player base has not been completely successful. The sales of mobile phones are still not as good as that of Myron Case, but it can be regarded as a huge one for Facebook, which has just entered the mobile phone industry. It worked.

At least Facebook can gain a firm foothold under Mickford's powerful dominance, and that's something to celebrate.

Next, the works of the mobile game development team can also enter the field of smartphones like bombing. I have given them the direction and standards of development. Just be ready.

As for the moment, Zhuyouxing already has a new plan, which is a new handheld.

However, this handheld device will also be distinguished from the previous traditional concept of handheld devices. It should be called a collection of handheld devices and mainframes, which is the switch form of the original world. This is what he wanted to do a long time ago. Now The technology has matured, and the player base has reached a certain level. Uniting handheld players and console players is what Zhuyouxing wants to do now.

But this is still in the early stages of research and development, and a series of ideas are not yet perfect.

"Zhuyou, according to your idea, we have finished the appearance design of the console you called Switch."

Hayazawa Airi, dressed in a white engineer outfit, came to the floor where the fifth game development team was with the latest draft.

Now Zhuyouxing is keeping an eye on the development of Final Fantasy 7 Crisis Core, which is considered the most important work at the current stage.

Zhu Youxing turned his head and glanced at the design draft, and a sense of familiarity came over his face immediately.

The separate handle design can be connected to the base of the display device, as well as the game console body with a small cooling fan.

This is a big guy for all the previous game consoles, but it is very small for the game home console, which is in between.

It turns out that there is still a big gap between the switch in the world and the final product at the beginning of the design. Its release date is 2017, but the earliest design time began probably after the release of Wii U. At that time, the switch was just a simple handheld mode. , can be regarded as the successor of 3DS, and later due to various reasons and improvements, it gradually became the final switch product.

Zhuyouxing skipped this step directly, and it is the final version of the switch, which saves a lot of time.
