After becoming famous, Hudson, the Kudo brothers seemed to be in a dream that was both real and fantasy, and they moved to the more prosperous Shinjuku district instead of building a office in Chuo-ku, Tokyo.

On the one hand, Hudson joined the NEC camp, cooperated with NEC to develop PCE, a quasi-sixteen-bit console, and continued to hold game competitions to accumulate high popularity for himself.

Since this time, Nintendo has almost been in a state of rupture with Hudson.

A third party that is not controlled, makes games for other hosts, and does its own publicity and makes a bunch of competitions.

Nintendo wanted to abandon Hudson right now.

At this time, there was an ordinary person who became the focus of everyone with his excellent results in the continuous fighting competition, and he was a Takahashi celebrity.

Takahashi's original name was "Takahashi Toshiyuki", which looks very similar to Popoai in "Popeye", and naturally has some comedic effects.

In the heyday of physical strength, Takahashi celebrities dominated the game competition with "16 consecutive clicks in seconds".

This has directly become a mythical achievement among the player base!

Of course, in the actual game, it is impossible to maintain the operation of APM for 16 consecutive seconds all the time, but the record created by this full effort is also unattainable by ordinary people.

Later, during Hudson's official competition, Takahashi Celebrity used Hudson's combo test equipment to achieve the miracle of 17.4 consecutive hits in one second! Takahashi Celebrity became the idol of almost all children in Japan.

In their eyes, Takahashi celebrities are celebrities, Superman, and Ultraman.

And Hudson has this game development company and a popular king who exists like a hero in the hearts of children, of course, it is impossible to hold such a good card without moving. The rapid development of game software featuring Takahashi's celebrity characters became a rather wise decision for Hudson.

Then Hudson did launch the adventure game "Takahashi Celebrity's Adventure Island" on the FC console.

Although "Takahashi Celebrity's Adventure Island" does not have the characteristics of Super Mario with super high action and cleverly designed levels, it has still been a great success thanks to the popularity effect of Takahashi celebrities and the quality of the game itself.

The addition of Takahashi's celebrities has indeed contributed a lot to Hudson's way forward. And Hudson's rapid rise is also inseparable from the industry masterpieces that have brought them a lot of fame.

The PC Engine console, also known as PCE, is Hudson's dissatisfaction with the identity of a third party, as well as the high royalty system, and wants to get rid of Nintendo.

Therefore, we developed it in collaboration with NEC using the Nintendo FC console as a sniper target!

In terms of game software, Hudson has accumulated a lot of experience on the FC console.

In addition, Hudson, who is successful at the moment, has a lot of money in his hands, and finds that if he wants to become bigger, he must get rid of Nintendo, and then brazenly join forces with others.

At that time, CD-ROM was actually a very cutting-edge technology product, Sony was also making optical discs, and CD-ROM discs have a large capacity, and they are easy to preserve, and compared to the cost of cassette, it is even cheaper!

Therefore, when contacting third-party manufacturers, many manufacturers have expressed interest in it, including the industry leader Namco!

Although this console is not a real sixteen-bit console, high-speed performance is still a major selling point, and because of the participation of two arcade bosses, the work is ultimately based on porting arcade games.

The PCE host is a game console product built by Hudson with all his might, in fact, the configuration is not low, the CPU uses a 6502 customized version, and uses the chipset named HuC62 to provide image processing functions.

Although the CPU is 8-bit performance, the peripheral chips such as the image chip are all 16-bit! In 87, it is actually far more than the performance ability of the Nintendo FC console. Coupled with the groundbreaking CD-ROM drive, Hudson's PCE was an epoch-making product at the time!

Hudson's judgment in the business world is definitely one of the best!

PCE is equipped with a CD-ROM disc with a large media capacity and low cost, which also allows game companies to stuff more content into the disc, at that time Li Fangcheng thought that he knew that there was this thing, so he hoped that Sega could give a certain negotiation on the memory, but what he didn't expect was that Sega was afraid of it like a tiger!!

However, what Li Fangcheng didn't know was that not only Sega, but even Pu Yamauchi was nervous at that time!!

The low price and large capacity of the disc are too fatal for the card belt!!

But there is no way, the production of cassettes is mature, but the disc is not, there is no optical drive, there is no production line, and there is no technical reserve, even if you feel nervous?

Fortunately, PCE is self-defeating, otherwise today's landscape would not be so simple.

PCE's animation images are actually quite good in a timely manner, and the resolution can achieve 256×240× 320, 240, 336×240, 512×240 and so on! In PCE, although it later made certain breakthroughs, such as producing some games with animated cutscenes as the main selling point.

However, since it is a dream, sooner or later there will be a day of disillusionment.

Because Hudson's misestimation of the future of the entire game industry, this game manufacturer in the middle of the day almost lost his life!!

Although Hudson has been working hard to make games, and does not regulate other game manufacturers, as a result, all kinds of bad games and taboo games have appeared, making PCE exhausted!

So much so that Sega and the Age of Miracles came from behind,

Hudson, there is nothing to be done now!

Although we are trying to seek change and breakthroughs, we are still getting worse!

In the past few months, I have lost countless losses!

So much so that now Hudson has faced a huge risk in the capital chain!

Once Hudson can't find a way out, he may not survive this month!

This made the director and president deeply afraid!

"So you're telling me Hudson's example to tell me that Hudson's financial chain is about to be broken, and that Namco, as an accomplice, wants to find a way out?"

The director and president didn't care about it, and today I came to ask Namco's god-level soul figure again, Masaya Nakamura, I really want him to help!

"Director, you're wrong, you're not wrong about cooperating with NEC and Hudson, the main opportunity to develop, this is the right idea, this is PCE, he doesn't have the ability to challenge Nintendo, under this premise, what decisions you make are wrong, it's normal......" Masaya Nakamura shook his head and didn't answer directly.

Although Hudson's qualifications are worthy of vigilance, what makes Masaya Nakamura care more is the performance of the director!
