Chapter 36 Do not manufacture home game consoles
The quarter-finals started as scheduled.
Four teams were drawn to determine their opponents.
South Korea and the team were on the same team, while the teams from Canada and the United States were on the same team.
The match between Korea and Yoben started first.
There is no smile on the faces of the Korean players, but on the side of the players, the atmosphere looks more relaxed.
The Korean player ascended to the blue side, and the Japanese player took the red side.
Before the start of the match, the players on both sides began to check the input devices in their hands.
Koreans are fiddling with mice and keyboards, and I don't know if this is popular among these Koreans.
All the Korean players took out a ruler and measured the distance between their arms and the keyboard, as well as the distance between the corner of the keyboard table.
This neat and uniform posture reminded some of the literature lovers present that the world of Cthulhu was born under the pen of the master of love.
Time in Cthulhu is, in short, a world full of nihilism.
In this world, it is a mistake to have knowledge, but it is a blessing to be ignorant.
And the most indescribable horror is not really seeing the resurgence of evil gods, but the strange behavior of human beings themselves one after another.
And some extremely normal behaviors, precisely because they are so normal, are frightening.
It's like a noisy street, where everyone walks casually.
But there was a group of people, dressed in ridiculous clothes, walking in a very coordinated manner, and all of them sat down and stood up together, and if one measured them, each of them would stick out their feet exactly the same distance.
Isn't it scary for the people around you?
And the behavior of the Korean players at this moment makes people feel this horror.
However, no matter what is done, the game has to start.
The competition has always been a cruel seventeen years, and there has never been any so-called friendship first, competition second.
This is especially true in the context of this kind of game with direct monetary incentives.
The contestants raised their heads and looked at the beating numbers on the big screen hanging in the center.
There was a resolute look on their faces.
To win!
Be sure to win!
Everyone has their own dreams. And getting these bonuses is the only bridge to their dreams.
However, the heavens are always undesirable.
Where do you want to make it happen?
After an hour of fierce battle, beads of sweat oozed from the foreheads of all the contestants.
The team lost, by a slight disadvantage.
Ryoma, the youngest in the team, seemed to be about to exhale out of frustration, and the second soul person in the team, a guy named Zhou Zhu, couldn't laugh anymore.
Captain Guoguang looked at the demoralized team and comforted, "At least we didn't come in vain, we are the palace army!"
"Ahh
At a fish market in China's Hangzhou (Meow) Prefecture, a teenager surnamed Sun suddenly sneezed.
"Yes, we are the temple army. ”
The team's end in the quarterfinals made many American players and viewers feel pity.
It's not just that people tend to be sympathetic to the weak.
And because the way they operate with a joystick, it's really a very different style compared to the mouse and keyboard.
In fact, gamers in the United States are no strangers to controllers.
Almost every home with a personal computer must have more than one home game console.
And home game consoles will inevitably use controllers.
However, the handles used by the players are different from the handles that come with the machines in their homes.
Even compatible handles produced by other third-party Haicang on the market look very different.
In the past, some players tried it and found that although the handle used by this team was a little smaller than his big hand.
But both in terms of the comfort of the touch and the rationality of each button, it far exceeded all the handles he had used before.
Therefore, this player asked the players of this team where did the controller come from?
After several translations, the final answer was that this was the special handle of the arcade machine of "Anti-Terrorist Operation".
Arcade handles......
This expert with the spirit of research found that this arcade machine was completely produced by Wanhu himself, that is to say, this handle is also a handle produced by Wanhu himself.
In this way......
Is Wanhu also going to enter the home machine market?
The young man who got this answer was taken aback by himself.
You know, although Wanhu has never made its own home game console, it is still very famous in the American gaming circle.
Wanhu Interactive Entertainment is even directly the overlord on the personal computer platform.
And on the home console platform, there are often excellent games on sale.
If......
If you want to start selling home game consoles yourself.
With the technology of Wanhu, maybe Nintendo is really no longer a big devil, so this kind of pure hardware manufacturer can also play with eggs.
After all, in terms of hardware, Wanhu is stronger than Nintendo, and in terms of software games, Wanhu is better than Sony, I don't know how much.
Even, the current Wanhu Interactive Entertainment, as a publisher, has gathered a large number of small and medium-sized manufacturers.
Maybe...... If 10,000 households make home game consoles, it will really change the sky!
However, just after the player's research caused an uproar on the Internet, Nintendo, Sony and Sega all had a few days of meetings.
The president of Wanhu Interactive Entertainment came out slowly, saying that Wanhu would not launch its own home game console.
Why won't it be launched?
Nick said bluntly, because the home console market is not profitable.
Even, the money made by a host is not as much as a graphics card for 10,000 households.
Of course, for Wan Hu, whether to make money or not is secondary, the most important thing is that Wan Hu thinks that poor skills will limit Wan Hu's pursuit of higher quality games.
In the future, Wanhu will also cooperate with console manufacturers to launch games, but will not launch game consoles themselves.
If you want to experience the latest technology, you should choose a PC platform.
Of course, Nick didn't say directly at the press conference that if you want to have the best experience, the price of that personal computer should not be inferior to the price of a BMW.
Of course, this is because the BMW in the United States is cheaper.
However, tens of thousands of dollars of personal computers are really not something that every player can configure.
However, at this moment, a computer with tens of thousands of dollars may only take two or three years, and the average gamer can have the same performance for a few thousand dollars.
But how can a home console that may only be updated a generation in a decade compare to a desktop that costs only a few hundred dollars?
