Chapter 249 The Future of NDS
"Next year, I will bring you a batch of the world's most advanced equipment. At the same time, I will provide you with financial support without any conditions.
I only hope that you can achieve something in 1991, because at that time, the Han Dynasty will release another handheld console at the same time as the release of Gremlins 3. This will be a Genesis product and your world-famous product.
Chance."
NDS, the sales myth in the handheld industry, will become another masterpiece of the Han Dynasty. The development difficulty of NDS is not as simple as people imagined in later generations. It must be very simple to develop such scummy hardware as NDS, which is very cost-saving.
This kind of ridicule is just because of the existence of PSP.
As the second largest player to the PSP, although there are several majors between it, the development difficulty of NDS is still very high. The touch screen technology alone is a major difficulty, even though there is a touch screen pen as a medium.
Otherwise, it would have been released this year. Although NDS has been criticized by many people as a game console, it is a real money-making artifact. Its market has never been limited to gamers. It is also loved by business people.
It is also an excellent gift for giving. Anyone who receives an NDS as a gift will definitely become the envy of everyone around them, just like when you received an iPhone 4 in 2010.
The Han Dynasty is in great need of money now. The turmoil in the Soviet Union has begun. A few billion dollars is a lot. Next year it will definitely be on the Forbes list. But these billions of dollars are really a drop in the bucket in front of the most powerful country.
, tens of billions of dollars are not enough.
The NDS cannot be delayed any longer. Although the historical NDS was only released in 2004, and although it still became the best-selling handheld console in the end, this kind of intermediate time is actually a waste of time, and every second is money!
2010 was the end of handheld consoles, because smartphones began to become popular. In 2015, only serious game enthusiasts would buy handheld consoles, because the performance of mobile phones has generally surpassed that of handheld consoles, and even handheld consoles are not as good as big ones.
Some are equipped with mobile phones.
Portability, battery life, and handheld consoles are all inferior to mobile phones. Except for some exclusive games, handheld consoles are better than mobile phones because they are designed for games. No matter where you compare them, handheld consoles have no advantage at all.
But as for the only advantage of handheld consoles, most people don't buy it. In the eyes of the vast majority of players, as long as they can play games, they don't care too much about other things. The decline of handheld consoles is nothing short of normal.
Just imagine, if the NDS that lost the 3D effect was released in 1991, what kind of sensation would it cause? What about the castrated NDS? They have never seen a real NDS anyway.
The reason why NDS has become a sales myth in the handheld industry is because of its huge game lineup. Although most third parties were invested in Sony at that time, compared with game types, Nintendo still had an advantage, especially on NDS, which has unrivaled in the game industry.
Super Mario and Pokémon.
The game that competes with Super Mario on PSP is called LittleBigPlanet. Apart from game fans, how many people know about it? Although the game that competes with Pokémon is very well-known, it is only limited to cartoons. Digimon is in the game.
The results on the website are simply appalling. Compared with the cartoons that are popular all over the world, they are completely in two dimensions.
The functions of the PSP are very powerful, astonishingly powerful! It has completely surpassed other handheld brands of the same era. However, the consequence of excessive display of functions is that the PSP can no longer produce mobile games except for action games and text-based love games that display pictures.
game.
The second is creativity. Although the design of dual screens and touch screen pads is very unsuitable for playing games, its audience has directly changed from gamers to everyone in the world! In fact, Lala data will find that if you simply compare the number of purchases by gamers
, NDS cannot compare to PSP, but if this scope suddenly extends to all human beings, then PSP has no chance of winning.
"Ericsson, Motorola, and Nokia, I will find a way to get them to join the research and development of Han Dynasty's new series of handheld consoles. Don't think of it as a game console, it will be a Walkman or even a mobile phone, with one appearance.
An attractive and versatile mobile phone!”
NDS, Liu Zhiyuan has never regarded it as a game console. He wants to make NDS the prototype of future smartphones. The future development of NDS will gradually transform into mobile phones, and the Elf will always maintain its purest gaming blood.
Ren Zhengfei and the others looked at each other in surprise, cooperating with Ericsson, Motorola and Nokia!? To use a metaphor from the game industry, it is a group of fledgling small companies that can cooperate with Nintendo and Sega! This is really a step to the sky!
"Mr. Liu, do we really have a chance to cooperate with Ericsson?"
Liu Zhiyuan pointed to the number of viewers on the screen. Although it had declined initially, it still remained at over 100 million.
"Ericsson is very powerful, so is Motorola, and Nokia is an established company, but... the Han Dynasty is not bad either."
"So, again, put aside all your other distractions and concentrate on research and development of technology. Leave the rest to me."
Ericsson and others are not focusing on mobile phones at all now. This opportunity did not appear until 1990, that is, next year, they began to be aware of the mobile communications market, but they were only aware of it, and they clearly knew the future.
How big is the mobile communications market?
Seize time, seize the market, and seize the market before several giants truly discover the potential of the mobile communications industry. What is the fastest way? Games! NDS is his weapon to seize the mobile market!
At the same time, this is also a major advantage of the Han Dynasty in seizing communication base stations. Now, the defense posture of various countries towards communication base stations is frighteningly low. As long as users support the Han Dynasty, the base stations can be built. Do you want to demolish them after they are built? Ask the users
They agree or not.
When users are already familiar with NDS, if those giants want to enter the market, the home court will be the Han Dynasty. Its exquisite appearance, color screen, and PSP battery technology are advantages that transcend the vision of the times. Liu Zhiyuan has always done things one by one.
One ring.
In fact, no matter how hard he tried, he still had no money in the end! Soviet technology, global communication base stations, these are two gold-eating beasts, plus the future global database, tens of billions of dollars? It’s just a splash, tens of billions of dollars
Even the research and development technology of the Han Dynasty is not enough. Look at what the Han Dynasty is developing now!
32-bit consoles, several classic games, Gremlins 2, PC computer consoles and even the arcade Han Dynasty are all being developed, and Dragon City is also being built. It’s all about money, but fortunately, Japan’s economic crisis is coming. This is
A good opportunity for the Han Dynasty to regain its health.
If he had money and endless money to spend, who would spend such effort? He would start building the world's largest database from now on. With the world's largest database, the software developed by Microsoft would be in bad hands, or it would be merged into Han
Dynasty, IBM? So what? I sell a machine at a loss to grab users, how can you fight? Is IBM still the same oligarch without users?
At the same time, base stations are being built all over the world, and they are directly purchasing ready-made technologies. He dares to pat his chest and guarantee that in 2000, the Han Dynasty will rule the world!
